A FAIR CRITERION.
Since the days of Eve the acquisition of nerfeothealth and beanty of form has been the desideratum of every woman. Ninon do l'Enalos, the celebrated French beauty, attributed her health and beauty to the care which she bestowed upon her toilette. lv these lator days Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People have come to be regarded as an indispensable adjunct to a lady's dressing t*ble, and to those suffering £0$ tie Jrjs allißentk peflnliw. t ta her, sc*. tij support of the -statement, we append the oas?, of Miss May Dickepson, yyho was'inirabulonsly cured of an obstinate case of anaemia. ■!i Miss May Dickenson was born at Soldier's Hill, Ballarat, Victoria, sbmelSyearß hk<), and. Jived there up to. three years Bince, wnen her family removed to Tasmania, her father having purchased a selection oh the " Seven." Shortly after her arrival on the tight little island, Miss Dickenson commenced to experience very uncertain health, which, as time wentou, showedno ii%rovement, and caused her parents considerable 'anxiety. Medical advice was sought, and various tonics advised and taken, but without any noticeable result. Inlne early'parf of the year a change of air* was advised, and Miss Diokenson came back to Victoria, with a hope that her native air would succeed when ' doctor's medicine" had failed. Having some relations in Essex-street, BaU&rat East; Miss Dickenson took np her residence with them. Still she continued unwell, and again medical advice had tp be obtained. Unable to take solid nourishment, Bhe lost flesh to such an extent 'as to make it a labor to undertake any exertion. Nothing Is more weakening thanancemia.orpoornessof blood. Energy departs and leaves listlessness to fill its plfoe, the blood goes from one's lips and tongue, and a terrible pallor, ghastly to behold, is the result. "Could you not take any nourish' went ?" asked our representative, who met Miss Dickenson at her aunt's, Newryrtreet; North Fitzroy. 11 well, a little, but most of it refused to stay. I had pains in my back, and had to Bleep oh my side." "Did vdtt see any medical men in Melbourne?" ' •« Yfos, one, who said 1 was outgrowing my strength, and gave me a tonic ; but in spite of all advice and medioine, nothing would stay on my stomach. One day I was in a dhemist's in Brunswick-street getting a prescription made up, and the dispenser asked me if I had suffered much. On my replying in the affirmative, he said, • Why don't you try Dr Williams' Pink Pills ?' Somehow this took a hold on me, And I purchased a box, and commenced to take them instead of my physic." " Did you receive benefit?" "Yes; shortly after I commenced to tak« them I experienced a vast improvement, and within a few days I ate my first substantial meal for 18 inonthsi In a week I gained 61b in weight, and I kept on improving until three weeks since, when I felt justified hi discontinuing them, having taken seven boxes." '.'Ana you consider yourself fully oured?" , . . .. " Undoubtedly ; and I can imagine the surprise my friends will receive when I return to my parents next month." Complimenting Miss Diokenson on her, very evident robust health, our representalV The action of Dr Williams' Pink Pilb lox Pale People is directly on the blood, and thus it is that they are so famouß for the cure of ansemia and rheumatism, weak heart, sorofula, consumption, chronio erysipelas and restore pale and sallow complexions to the glow of health.
