NEURALGIA AND LOSS OF APPETITE OF LONG STANDING CURED.

The excruciating agony so inseparably associated with neuralgia not infrequently unnerves its victims to such an extent as to unfit them for any description of work. Day after day, and week after week, their sufferings are mercilessly continued in spite of the many remedies resorted to, and their condition, before the stern and ruthless tormentor, becomes pitiful to behold. Those who have experienced neuralgia in all its force have described the pain endured as similar to that which would be produced by pressing hot irone against the cheek bones after removal of the flesh covering them. Thea again, there is the twitching, or, as is more generally termed, the jumping, of the nerves. It is no wonder that sufferers undergoing such torture should, as in the case of Mies Dean, lose all desire for food ; their physical troubles, when so pronounced, have always a mental ally, and (the results are severe beyond description. News having got abroad of a remarkable core having been effected at Paddington, Sydney, a reporter was dispatched to verify the facts, and so called upon Miss Marion Dean, whom he found at her residence, 58, Gordon-street, •• Mine was a very bad case,” said Miss Dean, on being questioned, •• as it was one of long standing, and I could find nothing to relieve me, let alone cure me. I have tried a great number of medicines of different kinds, but not one of them did me any good. Your pills had already obiained a great reputation in this locality before I tried them. and, in fact, they were brought prominently under my notice by *a friend who lives in the neighbourhood, who had had practical proof of their value, she having derived immense benefit from them. Thia

strongly induced me to give them a trial. I bought three boxes for a start, and proceeded to use them in the manner indicated on the direction sheet accompanying each box. They had a marvellous effect. Why, even the first box produced a wonderful change ; the severity of neuralgic pains, which I had seldom been without for a number of years, was greatly diminished, and my appetite, which had almost ceased to exist, returned to me. This gave me great faith in the efficacy of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, so I naturally decided to continue the

treatment. The results continued to encourage me, and thoroughly justified my high opinion of your remedy. I went steadily on according to directions, and kept improving all the time. My nerves, which had been altogether unstrung, were braced up and strengthened ; the frightful pains in my head, which used to drive me half crazy, gradually abated, and I am indeed happy to say have now quite left me. I have taken in all four boxes, and I fee! quite myself again. “I have written to the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co. to say that they are at perfect liberty to make whatever use they like of his testimonial, as I feel so grateful for the benefit 1 have derived from their Pills. I have recommended them to all my friends, many of whom are taking them, being influenced by the cure they have effected in my case. (Signed) Marion Dean.”
