ASSAULT AND ROBBERY.

CRITICAL CONDITION OP THE VICTIM.

ARREST OF THE OFFENDERS,

Another addition has boon mado to the already long list of victims to highway robbarv, which, though now less frequent than a'few years back, still occasionally occurs to menace life and liberty. MrW. Lo Fame of Maud Street, Clulned, Geelono- Victoria, whilst driving along the highway from Panmuro to Ter.ing, was suddenly precipitated from Ins vehicle into a heap of blue metal, by which he sustained a fractured skull and other injuries to his head, subsequently developing into an attack of paralysis of the brain, which laid him low, until at a later date, his illness was arrested by Dr Williams Pink Pills for Palo People. To a reporter of the Footscray Gliromclc, Mr Le Paige gave tho following particulars of his illness and recovery; - “ Ihe cause being thrown was the lioiwo taking frignt and boltin fr ,” said he, the immediate result being that I bad to take to my bed for several weeks, months elapsing bcfoio 1 became convalescent, in fact, I never completely recovered until recently. At times I was seized with most excruciating pains at the base of tho skull, and so inclined to strange actions that my friends wero seriously considering the advisability of having me medically examined as to my mental condition. Lrain paralysis, some medical experts termed it; shook to tho system .and* nervous .headaches was thevordict of others. Change of scene was advised, and 1 tried all parts of Australia without success. At unexpected times I would experience severe headaches with spoils of sleenlessncss that often induced the mental query, ‘.ls life worth livingr and J can tell you nt times 1 felt very much inclined to take the answer into my own hands. Some four months since I was induced to trv Dr 'Williams’ Pink Pills for Pule People in'place, of sleeping draughts, and tho effect has been marvellous. in less than a weeK my brain became clear, the headaches that Lad troubled mo continually disappeared, my natural rest returned, and in a few weeks I was as well a s ever. During the last few weeks I have been out continuously, and the hottest day has caused me no inconvenience. I don’t profess to know much of drugs or medicines, but I do know that a few boxes of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills did for me what doctors ia and out of hospitals in three colonies failed to accomplish. That I am a sane man to-day, and in good health, I attribute to the sole use of Dr Williams’ Pint? Pills for Palo People. I am a native of Geelong, and am well-known there; also in Melbourne and the western districts of Victoria.”

Thousands have been cured of paralysis, locomotor ataxia, spinal disease, rheumatism and sciatica; also diseases arising from impoverished and vitiated humors of the blood, which cause scrofula, rickets, chronic erysipelas, consumption of tho bowels and lungs, aneemia, pale and sallow complexion, general muscular weakness, loss of appetite, palpitations, pains in tho back, nervous headache, early decay, all forms of female weakness and hysteria, by Dr Williams’ Pink Pills. The genuine Pills are sold only in wooden boxes, about two inches in length, each of which is encircled by a blue warning label. The outside wrapper has the full name, Dr Williams’Pink Pills for Pale People, printed iu red on white paper. In case of doubt it is better to send direct to the Dr Williams Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., enclosing tho price, 3s a bos, or six boxes for 15s 9d. These pills are not a purgative, and they contain nothing that could injure the most delicate child.
