WEAK, LANGUID AND BLOODLESS

Anaemia in its worst form.

Woman's health shattered. Wasted away to nothing. Constant fainting fits and headaches. Seven doctors failed to cure her. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills gave her health and strength. They built up her blood eupply.

"When I was about 24 I became ansemic,' 'said Mrs Louisa Van Praag, "I lost all my colour. I hadn't a scrap in my face, lips , or hands, the latter were quite transparent. I lost all my flesh and wag as thin as possible. As to strength, I hadn't i a vestage. I never wanted to go out, just wanted to lie down all day. Often I was too weak to get out of bed in the mornings. I'd get faint toolings, everything would go black, aud I'd go right osf altogether." I had advice irom seven doctors, but I got no beuefit in spite of all the tonics I swallowed and the small tortune it cost my people. I went away to Moss Vale for a change, and came back as bad as when I went. Nearly every day I'd get nervous headaches that turobLed and pierced through my head particularly at the temples. I'd get attacks of Neuralgia in both sides of my face darting up and down each jaw aa if the parts were on tire. Tlu> attackb would come on about ten o'clock each day and last till about five and th»n go off. M^ appetite was very poor. The only things I wanted to eat were pickles and bread, sometimes I had^ no liking lor these. My feet and .hands were always cold a*» stones. My hair } egau to lall out My heart's action was veiy faiJit except if I went upstairs or moved qniH-ly. Then it started to thump. L i.( ver had the least heart to do nny'.hing. I was too weak aud languid. Work was beyond me. I'd toss about lor hours at a time* when in bed aud in the morning I could hardly get up. I'd have such queer ringing noises in my head at times and I'd have uts of hysteria, laughing and crying by turn 1 ?. If I cut myself quite dcep'y hardly ary blood would come and what did come was pah.and scanty. I was ailing lik-? this for about six months when I started to 'give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial. The first box did me a little good. Little by little I found my appetitt • improving." 1 lo3t my desire lor sour thingn and began to fancy wholesome food, | aud what's more I kept down what I swal- I lowed. I was not nearly so languid and I began lo brighten up and take an interest in°tliin<>s. Before I'd f.ni3hed the fourth box tli(T colour was coming back to my face and lips and I began to put on fli6h. I could feel the new bluxl in my veins and , my feet and hands were not so cold. My headaches began to ease off and the Neulalgia was not nearly so bad. I stuck t.-. the pills and soon I could sleep well and feel quite brisk when I woke up. I kept on with them, taking one pill after each meal. Every day I lelt stronger and better. My nerves calmed down and the hysterics left me. Ever since I finished the course I've enjoyed the best of health and feel as strong and energetic as anyone could wish. The pills worked a marvel on me."
