THE SERIOUS ILLNESS OF MR DAN BARRY.

There is no man with whom the theatrical and theatre-goinft public of Australasia are batter acquainted than Mr Dan Bany, the popular actor-manager of the Alexandra Theatre, Melbourne. Recently one of our representatives paid a visit to him at his office, and he courteously granted a request for a few minutes’ conversation. “My life has been a varied one,” said Mr Barry, “and there are but few, cities and towns in Australia I have not visited. A theatrical manager, has much to do mentally, and as a result I commenced to icel the strain some 1 two years ago... Frequently I felt, mentally and physically, quite exhausted. I was also affected with neuralgia in my head, which often seriously interfered with my - duties. At night my sleep was restless and of' no recuperative benefit, and my illness commenced to tell on me so seriously that I consulted a medical man. He told me that my system had run down, and that I .wanted, a tonic. He gave me some pretty extensive medical advice, which developed into a large-sized bill. I would not have had any objection to the bill had I received any benefit; but I had not, so I tried a second medical man, with no better result than the consoling information that my evident state of debility and want of tone required me to take an extensive rest. This rest was, of course, an impossibility. Noticing my indisposition, a fellow-professional suggested I should, try Dr Williams’ Pink Pills. I followed , his advice, and purchased a supply. After using these pills for six weeks I found myself free from all signs of debility and its_ attendant ills, and fully recovered in spirits and health ; in short, ‘Richard was himself again.’” •' “And'you recommend them?” “ Yes, I do. If I see any member of my, company showing the least signs of brain fag or being run down, I recommend a>-course of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills, , and have never, known them to fail.” These pills can be obtained from all chemists and storekeepers, or from the Dr Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington, N.Z.* one box for 3s, or six for 15s 9d, post paid., They positively cure indigestion, insomnia, neuralgia, nervous prostration, general debility, sciatica,: lumbago, ■ anaemia, all female irregularities, loss of strength, heat and sick headaches, ;• effects of fevers, &c., &c. If you suffer from any ailment whatsoever, arising from a disordered or unhealthy blood, you should try 1 a course;, iR yevur case the cure .will be. just as permanent apd inexpensive as in the'base'of .Mr Data-Barry*
