REMARKABLE INCIDENT AT A GUARDIANS' MEETING.
. An interesting and, we vento* to think, somewhat unusual in. eident lately occurred at the meetl - ing of the Bishop's Stortford Poo» w - Law Guardians (says the Glasgow Herald, of December 15, 1898? A working man appeared before ith» •> Board withreference to Goineartean of maintenance for his father's •* support, the latter being i tt tl*,-^ County Lunatic Asylum. The man *!- said he was quite unable to par - He was employed at 13s per week "' but had been himself laid up with " X illness. Out of this 135., 9s went J ~ for lodgings and 2s 9d a week for W Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pkk People. Some of the Quardiaog i suggested that he might have dis- . pensed with these pills, but the - man would not hear of this, saying that if he had adopted such adriee * jie would not have been able to follow his employment at all. The guardians were at first disinclined to accept this testimony of tbe value of the pills, but one of their own number spoke very decidedly in their favor, and testified to the great benefits he had himself derived from them. The Quardna in question met with a serious tc» eident some time ago, and it wai while recovering that he tried Br, Williams' Pink Pills, with what 1m described as most beneficial result, The above item appeared wotd for word in the paper mentioned, amongst the ordinary reading matter. It is merely an &&« conscious but sterling tribute to tbe "' extraordinary valueof Dr William 1 Pink Fills. Another very strong tribute comes from Miss Amu*. 4, Barnard, who is residing iTf--Adelaide Street, near the Cen&il ? Railway Station, Brisbane, anf^ who is well known as an artistic and fashionable dressmaker, being;;, employed at one «f the leading^ dressmaking establishments in Brisbane. ( About three years ago,' said Miss Barnard, ' I suffered greatly from indigestion. I lived then at Ipswich. For about twelve montiu I suffered much inconvenience and pain. I took no medicine what* ever for it. I then went to Brisbane, and procured employment at the firm I am working for at present. But when I first arrived^' in the city, I found that the changed did me no good, and my complaint " inconvenienced me so much that I had to seek medical advice. I visited a doctor and he prescribed " for me. The medicine did not do me much good. I began to have terrible pains. .After I partook of the slightest morsel of food, I would have severe pains in my chest, together with swellings. I got so indifferent to food that I barely tasted it, and consequently my general health was very much impaired. I became very thin, and had to go away for a change. I had to entirely give up my employ* ment, no remedies seemingly re* lieving me. One of my workmatei at last advised me to try Dr Williams' Pink Pills, but I only laughed. However, when she tokt me that they had cured her of in-? digestion, I thought I would grt» *- them a trial ; so I procured a few. boxes at Mr Marshall's, and began taking them. Very soon a change for the better could be noticed, lay* friend and adviser was very solicitous to know the result, and four weeks after taking Dr Williams' Pink Pills I had to confess to her that I felt a vast, im* * prpvement. I > took altogether, niiie boxes, andf now I feel pwv fectly well. I am able to eat a fairly good meal, and walk long distances without feeling muca^ fatigued. I attribute this change r to DrWfflianuj' Knk Pills, BjmT% have induced maw/ to give thm~*i% trial, with gratifying result* . Tb#js reason I relate these facts, aa£| authorise their publication, I#J? simply out of gratitude. Neither "h am I ashamed to publish my testi* : t monial, as I consider it would be selfish and an injustice to othetf who suffered as I did.'
Moral : To avoid all heat effects, use Dr Wiffianiß' Pink Pills. They cure anaemia (bloodlessnees), debility, biliousness, sleeplessneii, headaches, indigestion, kidtwf , and liver troubles, gravel, chronic 4 g diarrhoea, pimples, vital weflk»i£ ness, all skin complaints, paralysis^ locomotor ataxia, etc. Chemisti|| and storekeepers all over thecolonft^ sell them—price, 3s. per box, six I boxes for 1 6s 6d. Get the genuine f with the fall name (all seven words)— Dr Williams' Pink HDi for Pale People— printed in rail - on the white outside package of i each box. Imitations are danger- ,i, pus. If in doubt, enclose the priof : >< in postal note or stamps, and send direct to the Dr Williams 1 lfedk%* cine Co., WeUington, if.Z. BB^i member that imitations are imS»4 tations in appearance only, and c never cured anyone. '«[
