A few years ago while she was employed
In the mills she was suddenly seized
with dizziness and great weakness. al

| could hardly stand, and my head be-
came so dizzy that it seemed as If the
floor was moving around.
my condition ut last became 80 bad
that was obliged to give up work in the
mill, and later still l became so feeble
that l could not even attend to my
household duties. After the slightest
exertion I had to lie down and rest until
regained strength.
"a friend who had used DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People urged me t.
try them. l bought box and began &c
take them. The benefit was so positive
aud SO quickly evident that con tinue cd
to use the pills uutil had taken alto
gether six boxes. BY that time l was
entirely cured, aud for two years have
had no return Of my trouble. am now
In the best Of health and able TO attend
to all my duties. lam glad to aclSnowl
edge the benefit received and hope
that my statement may be the means OF
inducing others who moy suffer In this
way to try this wonderful medicine"
The secret Of the power Of DR.. Will
