PATHETIC SCENE IN COURT.

The "Horsnam Times" (Vie.) describes a painful scene in the local Court. A case of some interest was in progress, and the witness in the box was being intently listened to, when suddenly it became evident thai something was amiss with a juryman — a leading fanner of the district. The reporter in court (says the "Tunes") will not soon forget the farful look of agony on that mail's iace- ~ ■-, t i •'On that day in court, said the gentleman in question—Mr Thomas Lawes, of Greenland Dam, n'car Horsham—when chatting to our reportr, "I had my first attack of rheumatic gout. Later oh the pains became worse, and I was unable to lift my right arm; it seemed paralysed with pain. For the next eight years I was a victim to this complaint, suffering more or less, but for seven or eight weeks of each year I was in fearful agony, unable to sleep at night or move about in the day. My joints were swollen, stiff and tender; every movement caused agony. My food had to be cut up for me, and I was as helpless as a child. I consulted an experienced doctor, but despite his skill, I did not recover. Then 1 ul»f<l many advertised medicines without avail. At last my wife persuaded me to try Dr. Williams' pinkrills for pale people. After taking sik boxes the pains left me,- and my creneral health greatly improved. A few more boxes completed my cure, which L am sure is permanent. 1 am now strong and well, and although sixty-one years of age, feel .like a young man." It is impure blood which causes rheumatic gout and kindred diseases. Dr Williams' pink pills by enriching and purifying the blood and retoning the nerves, cure these complaints; and anaemia, debility, dyspepsia, chronic headaches, palpitations, ladies' ailments, insomnia, etc. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, and by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free. As Mr Lawes is a well known temperance advocate and worker in the Bible Christian Church, his words caa be implicitly relied upon.
