Charles H- Gales, a ToongabbU?, rvic) settler of over sixty years tanuin has (says the •« Maffra Snectator ") been the victim of a na^y accident, .which resulted somewhat seriousU, bearing " I was at work in thr clearing one day," says Mr Gales i upon-be-ing interviewed, "when the chain of the ' forest devil ' 1 was using suddenly snapped ! I was knocked down by the rebound, and when f picked myself up I could feel that the mu-scles oi my legs and loins were strained. A little later on 1 began to suffer from sharp pains, and a continuous ache, which was worse when I raised my leg <>r stooped. Then 1 was placed under treatment for sciatica, but my muscles continued to contract, and I was in such agony that I had to give up work. A doctor examined and prescribed; but as i crew nc better I wrote to the Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Queens Place, Sydney, giving full Particulars of my case, and asked if ur Williams' pink pills would cure me. They kindly gave me all necessary information, and I began to use the pi, Is. After taking two boxfuls I felt reiicved. The pains lessened, and I could move my legs more freely. Three boxfuls completely cured me, and I was soon back to work again clearing as vigorously as ever. I purchased six boxes of Dr Williams' pink pills' but the other three I gave to my brother, and they cured him of a skin disease- My health is perfect now, and I regret I did not use Dr Williams' pink pills at .first and save expense." Sudden bluws, nervous strain, injury to the nerves, or impoverished blood help to induce sciatica. Outward applications only give tern porary relief. Dr Williams' pink pills purify and enrich the blood, and thus cure many cases of scitica and rheumatism, anaemia, eczema, rickets, erysipe.as, and iconsumption. They also cure paralysis and locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, neuralgia, after-effects of influenza and fevers. Sold by chemists auid storekeepers, and by the Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free.
