A NEW ZEALAND MIRACLE.
GREAT EXCITEMENT IN THE FEATHERSON DISTRICT. When a girl, in the best period of her life, has suffered for four years from excessive heart palpitation, swollen legs, giddiness, cramps, chronic insomnia, and other distressing ailments, and when she has tried numerous medicines and many doctors without the slightest benefit to herself, she naturally feelg grateful when she discovers a remedy that almost miraculously, as it seems, succeeds where all others have failed, and in a short space of time relieves her completely from her troubles and places her in the front rank of happy and healthy girls.
This has precisely been the case of Miss Petrea Peterson, of Featherson, North Island, New Zealand. In a communication to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., she explains her sufferings at length.
"lam 16 years of age," she says, "and ever since I was 15 I have been suffering more or less." Palpitation of the heart was her principal trouble, she states, and this was induced by anaemia, or poorness of the blood. " When, for instance," she continues, " I ran upstair 8, my heart used to thump mo?t f rightfully ajainst my sides, aud so bad was it that on these occasions I was unable to talk for some time afterwards. This was naturally a source of considerable anxiety to my family and friends, Night after night I tossed, weary and worn out, on my bed, trying vainly to sleep. At times, too, I had fearful attacks of cramp in my legs, and so great was the agony that frequently it caused me to scream out in very desperation, to the despair of those around. I was always in a weak, low state, and, of course, never felt fit for my work, k.,, legs, too, would at times swell up to a considerable extent, and this naturally occasioned myself and my mother great suspense Thus, as I grew older I became worse and worse, being subject also to periods of giddiness which many a time caused me to almost fall down. I tried plenty of medicines and I had several doctors, one after the other, but they gave me no relief. I also consulted three doctors regarding an affliction of the eye from which I suffered. Having almost given up my case as hopeless, I one day noticed an advertisement for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People in the Evening Post. Gathering hope from this, in June 1897, 1 commenced taking your pills strictly according to directions. After the third dose, to my surprise, I found a change for the better. I continued with them until I, bit by bit, improved so much that four months ago I left them off altogether. I have taken a total of nine boxes, and am now in every way in the most perfection of condition. Insomnia, weakness, giddiness, heart palpitation, cramps, and swellings in the legs have all disappeared, aud the affection in my eye has likewise ceased. As there hat, been no recurrence of these ailments at all during the past four months, it is evident that my cure is a permanent one. Your pills have absolutely cured me, and I will always keep some of them by me. I feel n't for my work and for anything. My mother thinks the world of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and she has tried several boxes herself. I am awfully thankful to them, and I have recommended them to all my friends. Four of them speak exactly as Ido of the pills, and cannot praise them too highly. I shall always continue to recommend them. lam well known here, and numbers of people have been watching my case with interest. You may make whatever use you like of this testimonial."
