A Cyclist Unnerved
-^ ACCIDENT WHILST TRAINING. •At the pretfy township of Mar ton, in tbe Rangitikei district, which ia noted for its fine country and level roads, resides Mr J.G. Slight, a wellknown cycling enthusiast. " Some fourteen months ago " said Mr Slight, to our reporter, " whilst training on the track I had the misforfortune to hurt myself internally, an accident which completely unnerved me. The least excitment or noise depressed and exhausted me and I was !,too weak to ride. I bad to retire from the track. I could not even walk or ride a horse without experiencing a sicKening sensation in my stomach, and a pain in my side. Several doctors prescribed medicine and liniments, but I obtained little relief. One day I read of an athlete who had been cured by Dr Williams' pink pills, and whose oase was worse than mice. I bought a box aud felt greatly improved after taking its contents. Three boxes completely cured me. I now ride my machine as well as formerly, and have no fear of breaking down when training." Amongst the nervous disorders which Dr Williams' pink pills have cured are St Vitus' dance, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, hysteria, neuralgia nervoaa headache, sciatica, etc. ; but it U only the genuine pills with the full name iD red ink on the pink outside wrapper, that effect a cure. They may be had, post free, from tbe Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, three shilling 3 per box, six boxes sixteen and Bix, and from chemists and storekeepers — But mind you ask for Dr. Williams'.
