SENSATION IN A TOWNSHIP

The little township of Toolern (Vic), says the Melbourne Sportsman, has been thrown into a state of considerable excitement by a young man, resident in, the township. • It appears from particulars obtained by. the reporter despatched to investigate the matter that the excitement is not an everyday one. "It is true," said William Frederick Byrnes, f ■when interviewed, " that I have provided the township with a sensation. It was this way.; : . About two years ago I found myseif unable to cairy on rabbit-trapping and shooting, owing to an affection of the right hip and galloping consumption of the lungs. Many doc- - tors were consulted, but despite their skill I did not recover. At last I was taken to the Melbourne Hospital—a perfect skeleton, :, ■with a hacking cough racking my frame. The nurses thought I had only a few days to live.; An operation was performed on my hip, but : : without the result hoped for, and the dootors said they could do no more for me and that my early decease was certain. My family, .. expecting me to die, removed me home. A little later, some Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people were, purchased for me. In a fortnight I used ■ -:: three boxes and felt considerably stronger. I continued taking the' pills, and it soon became apparent i was recovering. Eight boxes completely cured me. Now Igo about camping for days at a time, rabbit-catching and shooting at will. My recovery has created a sensation' throughout the district,/ for everyone expected I would be dead long before this." ' The ravages of consumption are not in. ! curable at every stage. Nor is every case pronounced by doctors incurable by ordinary medicine beyond hope, if Dr. Williams' pink pills, which are not ordinary medicine, areV" used. They; have cured many , cases by re-' ' placing the lost blood, and increasing the resistant power of the lungs. By enriching the blood they also cure anaemia, debility, r• - •rheumatism, neuralgia, bronchitis, dyspepsia, etc. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, and ; by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Welling-. . ton, three shillings tier box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free.
