Tug and Skiff Collide.
A SHIPWRIGHT INJURED
Joseph Page, sixty years of age, described as a shipwright, iv the employ of the Lyttclton Harbour Board, met with a painful accident whilst in a small skiff. The skiff, colliding with a steam tug, was smashed to pieces, Page receiving injuries in the back, interviewed at his residence, Page street. Lytteltou, by a reporter, he stated that the accident proved more serious than was at first supposed. For nine months he was laid up, aad although he partially recovered, he was so weak that he was unable to get about, and his nerves were unstrung. He had no appetite, and his food did not strengthen him. General debility had undoubtedly set in. Previous to the accident he had suffered from, billiousness and influenza's aftereffects, but had been cured by Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people. He, therefore, again tried them; threo boxes strengthened him greatly and made him relish his food. Six more boxes cured him. Despite his age he has now an excellent appetite, sleeps well, and is quite strong and active. Mrs Page, who was present, said, that Dr Williams' pink pills had cured her of anajmia.
