WASTING AWAY. I :—: MISS ROHLOFF, TIMARU TOO WEAK TO WALK SLIPPING INTO A DECLINE HEALTH PERFECT TO-DAY DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS. •' When I entered my teens, it would have been hard to find a stronger girl anywhere," said Miss Stella Rohlofi, Le Cren's-terrace, Le Oren-st.,Timaru. "Soon after I turned fifteen, I started to fade away s and the only thing that saved me from the grave was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I took them for six months, and it is just wonderful the way they built me up. When I started them I was a skeleton but I weighed list 41b when I knocked them off. " My blood must have been over-taxed, for I grew pale and weak," added Miss Rohlofi. "I had no life, and just went about the house iv a half-dazed way. Mother never dreamed I was so bad. She used to get annoyed, and tell me that I gave way too much. I wouldn't let her know that there were times when I bad hardly the strength to put one foot before the other. I would not give in till one day, when I was helping her, 1 staggered to the sofa and fell back in a dead faint. That was a terrible shock to them all. The doctor was sent for, and ho said I fainted from sheer weakness and want of blood. " 'She will need every care,' Mrs RohlofE, were his last words to mother. ' The least chill might end in her Death. She has hardly enough blood in her body to keep her alive as it is.' " J didn't look as if I had any blood, for I was the color of Death," Miss Rohlofi went on. "My lips and gums were almost purple. My cheeks fell in, and my eyes sank away back in my head. I was a ghastly sight. Every fewweeksgreatdarkcirclescanie under my eyes, showing what a terrible state my health was in. The doctor sent me medicine and mother did her best to build me up with good food and no end of care—but, in spite of everything, I kept going down, down, down. " Soon I was nothing but an invalid. I had not the energy to do a hand's turn. Iv fact, I had not the strength. My back was never done aching, and my head felt as if it would burst. When these headaches came on 1 could not lie still for two minutes. I grew restless, and could not get, rid of the feeling the.l something dreadful was going to happen. Then suddenly my head started to swim, and all the blood in my body rushed to my face. The next minute I was stretched on the door in a dead faint, as lifeless as a corpse. " These fainting fits came oftener every month. Sometimes I had as many as three in a week When I came round each time 1 was all of a shake. My hands were stonecold, and I was so weak that I could hardly move. A terrible weight seemed to be lying at my heart, and I could get no relief till I had a good cry. Next day, I was fit for nothing. All my nerves were on edge, and I was too down-hearted for words. The least thing startled me and set my heart beating like mad. I always felt that the next fainting fit would carry me oil "After doctoring for years, I gave up all hope of ever getting well," added Miss RohloiL "As the Sundays went by I used to wonder if I would be alive that day week. I was so tiiin and weak that it waa plain I could not last more than a few months longer. I couldn't bear the thought of dying and leaving all at home behind me—but I knew I would be better dead. I " Father was heart-broken, and used to tell everyone how I was dying before his very eyes, and he couldn't find any doctor or medicine that could do me the least good. One day a man told him that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had cured a young girl a few doors from him when she was going straight into Consumption. Father got six boxes before he came homo that night. They only made me hungry—but everyone at home said that I must have patience, and not expect wonders in a few days. So I kept on. It was a month before I felt them doing me good in other ways. Then I had to own up that I was ever so much better. Every cay I kept gaining in weight and strength. Sometimes a whole fortnight passed and I didn't faint once. The color came back to my face, and my cheeks filled out. I had no more headaches or backaches, and I always wanted to be helping about the house. After I had taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for four months, I had not had a fainting fit for weeks - and I have never had one since. Still I kept on taking the Pills for six months, till I was just brimful of life and health. I weighed over list, then, and I haven't had a day's illness since. Mother and father, and all the neighbors, will tell you that I would be in my grave to-day but for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People." Dr Williams' Pink Pills do only one thing, but they do it well-—they actually make new blood. They don't act on the bowels. They don't tinker with mere symptoms. They won't cure any disease that isn't caused by bad blood in the first place. But when Dr Williams' Pink Pills replace bad blood with good blood, they strike straight at the root and cause of all common diseases like headaches, sideaches and backaches, kidney trouble, liver complaint, biliousness, indigestion, anaimia. neuralgia, sciatica, nervous exhaustion, failing powers, locomotor ataxia, and the special secret troubles that every woman knows but that none of them like to talk about, even to their doctors.
