SMARTLY RESCUED.
A SYDNEY LADY IN PERIL, The following particulars, just to hand, of a smart rescue effected under difficulties, should boot interest to most people. Mrs David Bretnall, of 257 Goulburn Street, Surry Hill*, was the lady rescued. Mrs Bretnall, who is the daughter of Mr Paterson, a well-known storekeeper of Glen Innes, N.S.W., received our representative most cordially, and willingly described the occurrence to him iu the f.d'owing terms : " It was at a picnic that 1 was suddenly attacked by the sharp shooting p-iins of neuralgia with so much violence, that I suffered for months after. The pains iu my face, head and back, too, became especially violent in the evenings. My head ached eternally. When, after the lont; weary day had passed, it was with the reverse of pleasure that I sought my couch. It meant a long, agonising, sleepless night. Sometimes I could not help moaning the whole night long. I
Mks. Bretnall. (from a photo by Freeman), would arise in the morning feeling utterly worn out. My appetite completely left me. I became very thio, and my face assumed a most melancholy aspect. When I locked at it in the gWs I could scarcely believe it was mine, so haggard and drawn had it become. I tried several sn-called neuralgia cures, but they were utterly useless. Nothing appeared capable of lessening my suffering. At last my husband, reading of a case of neuralgia cured by Dr. Williams' pink pills, bought a box for me, he himself had derived great benefit from using the pills. 1 have used only three boxes and they have completely cured me. All pains in face and back have left me. Headaches havo vanished, my appetite and full ability to sleep have returned aB of yore. The colour has come back to my cheeks, and I feel well, strong and happy. My husband can substantiate all 1 have said, and he will also be happy to add his testimony to mine re the curative powers of Dr.' Williams' pink pills." Others who have suffered from rheumatism, neuralgia, paralysis, lumbago, diphtheria, pneumonia, fevers, bronchitis consumption, St. Vitus' dance, and diseases ot the blood and nerves, are likewise happy to add thill' testimony in favour of Dr. Williams' pink pills.

Price, three shillings per box, six boxes lor sixteen and sixpence.
