A Life Saved Sixteen Months of Awful Suffering Impure bloed is always dangerous. Just as soon as yeu begin to feel woak aud languid, nervous and depressed, you are in danger. Make your blood pure and your nerves strong at once. Mr. Thomas 11. Cashel, ©f Dripstone, New South Wales, Australia, sends us this letter, with his photograph:/ " I vas-sud<le«ly taken very ill aud for tliveo wec;ks was delirious nearly all the time, and my life was despaired of. The doctors said it w:is Wood poisoning. For many long weeks I suffered the most frightful agony ; the poisoning all settled in one. limb. I then went to Sydney Hospital, where dead pieces of bone were taken from my lPff. But I grew weaker and weaker, until I could hardly raise my hand. I then left the hospital, believing I nuiKt. purely die. Then my people bought me a bottle of AVER'S Sarsaparilla It did me .eroodatonne. Tn all I used fifteen bottles. Without dowht it. saved my life, even after sixteen mwnths of suffering." Take Ayer's Pills with the Sarsaparilla. Prepared !?y Dr. .1. C. Ayer Co., Lowell, Mass., U. S. A. CAUSE AND EFFECT. — — ■ — *-■ ■ — A Vagabond's Story. It was sports day. I wandered on to the ground, and there saw six athletic forms breasting a tape. A thousand cianing necks, two thousand straining eyes were eagerly watching them ; then a breathless silence fell upon the crowd as a figure raised a pistoled hand. There was a crack, and those six athletes sped away. The starter shouted for them back ; 'twas vain, they were out of hearing. Then that figure with the pistol still in his hand tore off his hat, dashed it upon the ground, and jumped upon it. The contestants sped on nntil the goal was reached, and the victor proudly returned to claim the guerdon. The starter would not yield the prize, declaring it to be no race, as he never gave the signal to start. In proof of which he exhibited his weapon still loaded and capped ; but the sound had been heard by all. What could have caused the noise ? Who could solve the mystsry ? Two persons if they had chosen. They were ardent lovers who stood at the rear of the crowd, and when all eyes were diverted from them and fixed upon the coming struggle, he took the opportunity to impress unseen a kiss upon his beloved's cheek. This he did with more fervour than discretion. Hence that sound which, mistaken for a pistol shot, had sent those athletes careering over the course, and raised a dispute between the victor and the club that ended in nothiug less than a law suit. A pathetic story of noble self-sacri-fice, in which a young woman voluntarily forfeited her honour to save that of her father, was told at North London recently, when a little girl named Aon Adams was charged with being of such a disposition as to be beyond the control of her guardian. Miss Sarah Graham said she had kept tbe secret for 10 years, but now it was bonnd to be toid. Aua Adams was an illegitimate child of her father mow dead), and in order to save her father trouble and disgrace she had taken the shame upon herself. Tbe child was sent to one of the remand homes, pending the finding, of a school for her. In an American railway ear, when the news was received of the assassina tion of President McKinley, the passengers, who were a siognlarly rough lot, expressed their indignation in a volley of imprecations both expressive and novel, accompanied by showers of expectorated tobac&o juice. All sorts of tortures were suggested as modes for punishing the cowardly murderer, but none were considered horrible enough until one grimy individual said " Shcvd the (swear word?) on a desert island without his " quid," and let him rip there until he dies." That settled it. Being deprived of tobacco was looked upon as the most terrible possible punishment. PLENTY OF IT. LOTS MORE PROOF LIKE THIS, AND IT IS ALL FROM FEILDING PEOPLE. " The proof of the pudding is in the eating of it." If any city or town in the colony has sufficient proof on the subject it is Feilding. Genuine merit is finding its reward in the hearty endorsation of local citizens. When people right here at home, friends and neighbours of our citizens, give a statement like the following for publication, it is proof convincing for the most sceptical. Read this testimony. Mrs A. Jones, Warwick street, this town, says : — "Four or five years ago I was attacked with la grippe. Just as I was getting well I caught a cold, and for a time was in a bad way. I got right in a sort of way but was left with a very bad bachache. I was rarely without it. It was just in the sinal'l of my back, and it would strike up to the back of my head, paining all the way. All the time I was moving about I was in pain, and the only relief I could get was to lie down. But I could not be always lying down, so I had a lot of agony to endure While out working I used to feel that I would give anything to lie down to be free of my pain. I got a box of Doan's Backache Kidney Pills at Woollam's Pharmacy, and these pills have quite cured me. I've not had a sign of the old trouble since. They are grand pills for women." Do not be satisfied with any imitation of Doan's Pills. Imitations are worthless. You want the genuine remedy, that which cured Mrs Jones — Doan's Backache Kidney Pills. Doan's Bachache Kidney Pills are for sale at Mr Woollams' Pharmacy, Feilding, and all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per box (six boxes 16/6) or will be forwarded on receipt of price by the proprietors^ Foster, McClellan Co., Sydney.
