her experience with this medi cine as follows i had a nervous breakdown and was in the welland county hospital for some time as i was not improving my husband took me out and took me up to my moth ers i doctored there but it did not help me then i returned honie and was again under a doctors care but with no better results i would trem ble and get numb all over and the least noise would affect me i was quite unable to do my housework and was in a terrible condition finally i was advised to try dr williams pink pills and am thankful that i did so as after taking about a dozen boxes i was again a healthy woman i have used the pills since while nursing my baby with equally good results and i strongly advise other ailing women to try them you can get these pills through any dealer in medicine or

wage she looked up puzzled you have paid me all you owe for the week she protested the little milliner laughed maybe so she agreed but not all in that bit of money if you werent getting more pay than that you would be poorly off child but every day every week you are acquiring more and more skill in your work here you are getting a lot of real satisfaction out of it too you are fond of your work i can see that i like to think that although you are receiving only i small money wage- you are acquiring also the skill that will earn for you a good living later on and are having a dally share of tho joy of work well done the worker man or woman who get3 out of his job only the contents of the weekly pay envelope is poorly paid indeed yet from another point of view he is overpaid in money for the worker who isnt so much in love with his work that he does it better every day and gets a large measure of satisfaction out of it is a poor work man he probably doesnt fully earn the money infthe pay
