Mr. Lam Looking is a prominent tin-mine owner in the State of Perak, Federated Malay States. He is a Straits-born Chiness, well-educated, progressive, a man of much influence. aud of high standing in the mining town of Kampar where he lives.

About three years ago," said Mr. Lam Looking, "my wife was suffering greatly from Headaches. These Headaches came on every month. They used to last for days and during the attacks she seemed quite dazed, in fact was in a semi-conscious condition for hours. At these times, too, her tongue became thickly furred, her breath was offensive, and there were other symptoms usual in such cases. European and Native medicines were tried during and between the attacks, but very little good resulted.

"One day I received a pamphlet about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. In it I read that these Pills are good for women, so I bought six bottles of the Pills for my wife. After she had taken four bottles there was a marked change for the better in her condition, bez appetite returned, she slept, well, her tongun was a healthier colour, the unpleasant odour dis- appeared from the breath, and in coume of time the headaches entirely ceared. She suffers to more from them now and has regular bealth. At the time my wife was using Dr. Wil. liams' Pink Pille she was taking no other medicine, so I am sure that it was the 'Pille-and the Fills alone that cured her. So great is my faith in Dr. Williams' Pink Pille now that I have given some of them to each of my two children, and have also used them myself, Whenever
