A THRILLING EXPERIENCE.

Nestling close to other comfortable residences in Featherstone on the TeWharepouri Creek is the comfortable home of Mrs Peterson. Here a reporter elicited a remarkable story from Mrs Peterson. It related to the daughter of the house, who rejoices in the pretty and uncommon name of Petrea. This young lady, who is about 21 years of age and of prepossessing appearance, subsequently volunteered the foliowig statement. “When I was 15 I began to suffer with heart palpitation, swollen legs, loss of sleep and appetite, cramps and giddiness. The cramps were so painful that I would scream with pain; often when walking I became giddy and had to catch at something to save myself from falling. Although treated by several clever doctors, my illness increased, and I became a sufferer from pains near the heart. I was so pale and weak that my relatives thought I would die. I noticed a case in the “Evening Post” somewhat similar to mine, which had been cured by Dr. Williams’ pink pills, and some were bought for me. After even a few doses I seemed to feel better, and when I had used several boxes the improvement'' was noticeable. I continued with them until quite cured, and my improved appearance is a subject of remark. My mother has also benefited by Dr. Williams’ pink pills, in addition to three of my friends, and as we are always recommending them their popularity in the district is very great.”

In almost every neighbourhood a similar case might be heard of, for there is hardly a. town where there nre not some people, once suffering invalids, who have been restored to health by Dr. Williams’ pink pills. The disorders they have cured include paralysis, consumption, bronchitis, rheumatism, sciatica, blood impoverishments, rickets, indigestion, all forms of female weakness, and hysteria. They are a tonic, not a purgative. Substitutes are offered by some few retailers; there is no instance on record in which a substitute has benefited any one. Dr. Williams' pink pills are sold by the Dr, Williams’ Medicine, Co., Wellington, three shillings per box. six boxes sixteen and six, post free, and by chemists and storekeepers. But mind you ask for Dr. Williams’. The genuine are never loose or in bottles.
