CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES.

Christmas, 1897, will soon be upon us with its accustomed happy meetings and rounds of festivities. Those lying on a bed of sickness we sincerely sympathise with, whilst we wish those only recently recovered from a trying illness the compliments of the season, and trust that, as in the ease of Mrs Davies, of 12. North Clarendonstreet. South Melbourne, they will be enabled to spend a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Mrs Davis for five years was a great sufferer, her ehief complaint being severe indigestion and swellings in various parts of the body and limbs. She became an out-patient of the Melliourne Hospital, but receiving no benefit she visited the Homoepathie Hospital on the St. Hilda Road. But no relief was obtained, and her health went from bad to worse. Besides prescribing for her the doctors advised her to discontinue drinking tea. but she remained the same, no relief resulting. ’I have walked the floor,’ said Mrs Davis, ‘night after night with the pain, and could obtain no rest. My agony was very great at times, and weakness almost prevented me from continuing my work. At this stage Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People were brought under my notice.

I procured a box, for I seemed to have an impression that they would do me good. When making the purchase the chemist tried to induce me to buy some other kind of medicine, but I would have nothing but the genuine Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.

’After the first box I improved wonderfully, and was able once more to resume my work, and I have now taken two boxes and a half. My work consists principally of washing, and this I am able to do, and life is once more enjoyable.’ Another lady. Mrs Dunn, who lives opposite, here called in to see Mrs Davis, and to her she appealed to ratify her statements.

‘Yes.’ remarked Mrs Dunn. ‘I have seen the poor thing doubled up with pain, and suffering the greatest agony for days together, and we all thought she was going into consumption.’ ‘And now.’ replied Mrs Davis, ‘I am —well, "a new woman,” and all the neighbours and those for whom 1 work can tell you the same. Owing to my having to go about so much I am well known, and the difference between my previous condition and what it is now ean be proved by dozens of people; and mind, nothing else has done me any good but Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People.’ 'And what do you think of the pills. Mrs Dunn?’ asked our representative.

'Well. I have nearly as much reason to be thankful for them as Mrs Davis has. I was not at all well when she was suffering, and I also tried them with the greatest success. My daughter has just as great faith in them as I have myself. Where she is employed the girls tried to get her to take some other medicine, as she was not well, feeling out of sorts, and being languid and cold of a morning, but she would take nothing But Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and now she is quite well and cheerful again.’

Mrs Davis here remarked that all women onght to take these pills.

‘Yes.’ said Mrs Dunn, ‘and men too. Look at my husband. Some time ago he became very much depressed in spirits, and got into a ‘desponding mood.’ He had three bottles of medicine from the doctor, but it did not do him as much good as a bottle of stout would have done. He got worse, anti I advised him to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. He had got very bad and we thought he was dying. Eventually, he commenced to take the pills, and after three boxes he was a new man: in fact, he was thoroughly cured. I think it only right that these things should be made knownfor the good of others, for I think that the pills are the grandest remedy I ever heard of.’

Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have a remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished condition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system, such as rheumatism. neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia. St. Vitus’ dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, and the tired feeling arising therefrom, the after-effects of la grippe, influenza, and severe colds, diseases depending on humours in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. Dr Williams’ Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions, and are a specific for troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork and excesses of any nature. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold only in boxes bearing the firm’s trade mark and wrapper (printed in red ink). See that each box is encircled by a bine warning label. These pills are not a purgative. They are genuine only with the full name— Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People—and are sold by all chemists and by Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company. Wellington.
