JUMPING A FIVE-RAILED FENCE.
It was in connection with some talk about jumping a, five-railed fence that a reporter recently called at the residence ol Mr Richard Grose, the well-known contractor of Minnie and William Streets, Leaderville ierth. Ho subsequently obtained for publication in the West Australian the following particulars:— °
I did say, said Mr. Groso, "that J. could jump a five-railed fence, and it was whilst telling some of my experiences that '■ made the remark. When rising from bed one morning, over a year ago, I became conscious of terrible shooting pains in my hip. I dressed, however, and went to work, but was soon forced to return home—the pains were so acute. For seven months I was laid up with sciatica. '1 he muscles cf my legs seemed to be drawn up and wasted and movement was painful. My right leg was useless. Four doctors attended me, but I was not cured. 1 then read of the beneficial effects of Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people, and began taking them. I state the truth when I say that, two lwxes improved me wonderfully. I regained the use of my right leg and the pains subsided. Five boxes cured mo ; since then I have been in perfect health, and can actually jump a fiverailed fence, so there is no doubt of the completeness of my cure." Exposure, overwork, or nerve injury cause sciatica, and impoverished and vitiated blood assists in its development. Therefore, to cure sciatica the nerves must lie toned up and the blood enriched. This is just what Dr. Williams' pink pills do. Thus, too, they cure St. Vitus' dance, epilepsy, hysterical fits, nervous exhaustion, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, etc., whilst by enriching and purifying the blood they cure anaemia, debility, indigestion, skin diseases, consumption, colds, etc. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, and by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free. " How to Cure Sciatica;" write for special instruction.
