A SIX-INCH WALK.

Under the above heading-, a contentporary publishes some extraordinary, statements concerning a pioneer Atn burn (S.A.) resident, ;Mr David WiK liam Evans, aged 54. A reporter of thet Auburn ' "Chronicle" subsequently, visited Mr Evans, in order to ascertain the truth or otherwise of the statements made concerning him. Mr, Evans amply verified the facts by the; following narrative: , "It was on June 27 of last year (said Mr' Evans), "that I found myself unable to walk or even sit; up without pain, through rheumatism. The aching, gnawing pains in my limbs were so bad that I could not .sleep. Soon I seemed paralysed altogether, and waa confined to bed. -At last I recovered so much as to be able to leave my bed 9 but . I could not walk more than six inches at a time ,and.then only with! the greatest difficulty. The paina still continued, and the. joints were stiff and useless. Whilst reading the Auburn "Chronicle" one day I saw a reported interview with a man. who had been cured of rheumatism by Dr. Williams' pink pills. I sent lor somei and commenced them. After using- l^j boxes I was able to walk a fair- step. I took four boxes after that, and was by that time able to walk about as well as ever. All pain, stiff ness anq| inconvenience left me, and I certainly) consider my cure a remarkable one^ My son, Mr Thomas . Evans, whosfg heart was- affected Kjf. rheumatismj was cured by Dr. Williams' pink pills* so that there is no doubt about theiiS extraordinary curative properties." _ Winter weather causes our blood t<? become thin and impure, and rheuma* tism has then every opportunity ta attack the system. Dt. Williams' pmK pills cure rheumatism and sciatica) hy purifying and building up thej blood, and they are likewise a cure iotf anaemia, eczema, St. Vitus' dance, early decay, paralysis, rickets, jtntf diseases of children and women. .Sold by the Dr. Williams Medicine Com* pany, Wellington, three shillings per. box, six boxes sixteen and six, post* free, and by chemists arid storekeepers. But mind you.ask .for Dr. Williams'. Girls with pale and waxy complexions will find the use of Dr. Williams' pink pills brings about sparkling eyes, and rosy cheeks.
