AN IMMIGRANT'S STORY.
An interesting personality in Wanganui is Mrs Maria Whiting, a native of Salisbury, who left there in ’75 as an emigrant to this colony. The change in climate and the manner of living was so great that it took Mrs Whiting some time to become accustomed to it. “For many .years,” sad she, “I suffered greatly from anaemia. My face, lips, and hands were colourless. I became thin and worn-out looking and was always tired—too tired even to undertake housework without feeling it was a bother. 1 could not sleep at night, suffered greatly front headaches and backache, and lost my appetite. I consulted several doctors, and although they treated me for anaemia, I did not improve. Through reading about Dr. Williams’ pink pills I commenced them. My health improved, the colour came to my cheeks, strength to my limbs, .1 shook off th it terible languor .regained my appetite, and slept soundly. Two boxes of Dr. Williams’ pink pills placed me in perfect health, and I am so bright and active now as to astonish my friends. I know another lady whom Dr. Williams’ pink pills cured, and I always recommend them.” Those who are anaemic suffer from bloodlessness; Dr. Williams’ pink pills make rich red blood, retone the exhausted nervous system, and place the sufferer in perfect health. Lack of blood causes physical and functional weakness,.headaches,heart palpitation dyspepsia, backaches, cold feet, and the general wretchedness of “delicate” people. Dr. Williams’ pink pills also cure paralysis, locomotor ataxia, rheumatism, sciatica, etc. 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’. Substitutes are useless.
