From the Evening News, Newark, N. J.
Among the popular society leaders in East

young maiden, stands in the foremost rank.
She is OF q lovable disposition and the ligh.
Of the social set in which she moves. For
two years she has been q sick girl from in

ing recently recovered, has givon our
reporter the following interesting account;
Instead OF improving under the care Of
my physician i became worse. For Eve
weeks 1 was unable TO get out of bed and
about six O'Clock each morning / suffered
horribly. My lips wero sore and lacerated
from the marks of my teeth, fer In my efforts
TO keep from screaming / sunk my teeth
deep into my lips. At such times l rolled
and tossed until the bed shook like an aspen
leaf and 1t finally got 80 serious that the
eoctor-I won't tell you his name-gave me
some morphine pills TO take. The very
thought Of them now makes mo SILVER.
These morphine pills simply put me to sleep
for awhile and when l became conscious
again my agony was renewed. fH"

TO ninety my cheeks were pale and SunAen
and limpcd; yes, actually hobbled from
the extreme pain in my side. Then | read
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and the testimonials In the News inspired
me with hope. | got the pills and took
them. Before many days ] began to i'm
prove and before / had finished one box I
felt as il | could go out and walk for miles.
l soon stopped limping and through the
Pink Pills | soon bid goodbye TO my head
aches while the pain in my stomach and
back slowly but surely succumbed TO the
influence Of these pills that seem to be abba
10 persuade all pain TO leave ones body.
Now l am rs used 10 be; well and strong,
~lishthesrted and merry but never without
the pills. See | have got some of them
