STRANGE AFFAIR IN COURT.
When a case of considerable interest was in progress at the local Court (says tho Horsham Times) (Vie), and a witness was being listened to with attention, it became evident that something was amiss with a juryman, Mr. Thomas Lawes, a prominent and highly respected farmer in the district. When seen after tho occurrence Mr. Lawes gave the following particulars: — "The cause of my becoming the unwilling centre of all eyes in Court," said he, " was because I had tho misfortune to fall a victim to a sudden attack of rheumatic gout. Later on tho pains became worse, and I was unablo to lift my right arm; it seemed paralysed and every movement caused pain. For the next eight years I was a victim to this complaint; but for seven or eight weeks of each year I was in fearful agony —unable to sleep at night or move about in the day. My joints were swollen, stiff, and tender: to shift about much was impossible. My food had to be cut up for mo, and I was as helpless as a child. An experienced doctor was called in, but despite his skill, I did not recover. Then I used many advertised remedies without avail. At last my wife persuaded me to try Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people. After taking six boxes tho pain left me, and my general health greatly improved. A few more boxes completed my cure, which I am sure is permanent. lam now strong and well, and although sixty-one years of age feel like a young man." It is impure blood which causes rheumatic gout and kindred diseases. Dr. Williams pink pills, by enriohing and purifying the blood and toning up the nerves, cure these complaints, and anaemia, debility, dyspepsia, chronic headaches, palpitations, dysentery, insomnia, etc. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, and by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings, six boxes sixteen and six, post free. As Mr. Lawes is a well-known temperance advocate and worker in the Bible Christian Church his words can be implicitly relied upon.
