TRIALS OF AN M.P. No legislator is better known in Queensland than Mr Andrew Lang Petri e, M.P. for Toombul. Mr Petrie was elected by that constituency in 1893, and his supporters' appreciation of his ability and integrity is shown by the fact that he still represents it. Speaking to a reporter recently Mr Petrie . : referred to the fact ! tua t his life had not / boen trials. , / he said: " For ? <££ feVi*Sagi raan y vear s I have / :- ,©i§» been troubled with' /fa £'■&&> rheumatism, which W\k caused a dull, ach- ] ■ l ' n ° pa ' n ' n m y ,J shoulders and limbs ;lr e anti st i ffne ss of the m . us des.

Petrie, M.P. self to eat I could (Photo by Paulsen.) not relish my food; after meals there was a sense of weight, discomfort, and sleepiness. At times there was a bitter taste in my mouth. Headaches now and again troubled me, and my ill-health seemed to take away the activity which formerly characterised me. The medical skill available to combat my complaints seemed to give me only slight relief. Having read good reports of Dr Williams's pink pills I decided to try them. After using them for four weeks an improvement was noticeable, and from then onward my progress was rapid. Before long I was enabled to discontinue Dr Williams's pink pills, as they had cured me completely both of rheumatism and indigestion. As it is over two years since I used them there is no doubt about the permanency of my cure. Several of my friends and relatives have obtained great benefit from them, ana I can personally recommend Dr Williams's pink pills to all sufferers from rheumatism and indigestion."
