A MAN OF SORROWS.

" On a visit to Palmerston North," says the travelling representative of the Wainrapa Observer, " I happened to get into conversation with Mr. John H. Freeman, . f Fer-guson-street, with whom I had been acquainted for a number of years. In tl.-o course of our friendly chat Mr. Freeman, who is now over 65 years of age, and appeared remarkably hale and hearty, stated that his appearance did not belie him,. He felt, as well as he did 30 years ago. "You used to suffer very much, if I remember rightly, from indigestion and sleeplessness" I remarked. " I don't stinjiose many have suffered more from these complaints," replied Mr. Freeman, "but my sorrows did not end there, for few people, I imagine, have undergone greater trouble from constipation. I used to feel as if I had no energy at all." " And ore you better in all respects now 5" "Better in all respects; I can honestly say I do not remember ever having enjoyed more perfect health, and for my age it seems almost a miracle. And it is all from the effect of six boxes of Dr. Williams' pink pills." " You believe in them, then ?" " How can I speak otherwise than in the highest terms of a medicine which has done me so much good ? I could not possibly expect better health for a man of my age, and one who has suffered so much and for so many years as I have. I have often walked about for half the night, knowing that I could not close my eyes if I went to bed. I had no appetite in the morning; now I can enjoy a substantial breakfast, and my sleep is so sound and refreshing tin' I rise in the morning as fresh as a lark. The constipation has also gone, and you know how much medicine I took, and how many tilings I tried in vain for that. What is more, I am as eager for work as I was at 35 or 40. Friends who have known rue for the last 35 /ears are surprised at my healthful appearance of late. I feel so well, now." added Mr. Freeman, in his intense enthusiasm, "and strong, too. that I do not think I shall require any more. However, it I feel by-and-bve that I shall want them, I shall not hesitate to take another box or two. I shall always be thankful that I was induced to try Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people, for they made a new man of me, and I am feeling far better than ever I expected to (eel again on this side of the grave. I will always speak well of that medicine, for to it I owe my present good health and spirits. As I have work to finish before five o'clock," said Mr. Freeman, "you must excuse me. Good-bye; drop in again when you are in Falmerston." Such hearty cheerfulness on the part of Mr. Freeman shows how thoroughly he has been cured. Many other sufferers from rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica, diphtheria, pneumonia, bronchitis, consumption, coughs and colds, kidney troubles, scrofula, eczema, ladies' ailments, loss of vital strength, chronic headaches, and other diseases have been cured just as thoroughly. They all speak in high praise of Dr. Williams' pink pills. When purchasing, be sure you get the genuine, with all seven words—Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people—printed in red ink on the pink outside mapper. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, and by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, New Zealand. Price, three shillings per box; six boxes for sixteen and sixpence. Never accept substitutes, for money thus spent is completely wasted.
