A KEEN SHOT.

"I am enjoying tin's shooting season better than any before, and suppose tjint my whetted appetite for tick! sport- is due to my having for the better part of the lust two years, somewhat, neglected my old friend," said Mr Win, Byrnes, the Victorian crack shot, to the reporter of ;i contemporary as ho caressingly handled his favorite gun. Most of my life has been spent out of doors, but about two years ago I was laid up by consumption and tuberculous affection of the hip, winch four celebrated physicians said were incurable. I was removed to the Melbourne Hospital, where my hip was operated upon. I also suffered greatly from general decline, night sweats, a persistent hacking cough, complete loss of appetite, and inability to move. After a lit of coughing I would lie back on the pillows so white and exhausted that I was told afterwards I was often given but a few hours to live. After the operation the physicians recommended mv removal to the Austin Hospital for Incurables, but my family took me home, believing I had not long to live. On one occasion tho loea.l minister was called in, as it was thought my last moments were drawing near. A little later my relatives heard of cures effected by Dr Williams's pink pills in seemingly hopeless cases, and a supply was purchased for me. improvement came with the first box. By degrees strength came back to me. and color to my cheeks. I began to relish food, and was able to leave my bed. Altogether I took eight boxes, and am now in the enjoyment of robust health and strength, and go away on rabbit-trapping and shooting excursions for days at a time. Every trace of consumption has departed." Mr Byrnes resides at Tooleru near Milton, Victoria. ' Mr Byrncs's recovery has created a great sensation m the district. Dr Williams's pink pills cure consumption by increasing and enriching the blood supply, so that it may feed and fortify me weakened lungs, throw off the distressing cough, and put an end to the debilitating night sweats. For tho same reason they cure antenna, debility, neuralgia, rheumatism, sciatica, bronchitis, dysentery etc They are sold by the Dr Williams's Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., and by all chemists and storekeepers-, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and sixpence, post free But mind you ask for Dr Williams's. Every genuine box has full name in red ink on white wrapper. As these pills have been the subject of somewhat extensive substitution,-the Dr Williams's Medicine Company are devoting considerable energy to the detection of that practice, and will pay a reward for information leading to the conviction of offenders.—[Advt.]
