A LIVING WONDER.
WHAT THE NEIGHBOURS SAY OF A NEWCASTLE WOMAN. A HELPLESS CRIPPLE WITH PARALYSIS ■ UNABLE TO MOVE. CURED NEARLY TWO YEARS AGO BY DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS, AND IS STILL WELL AND ACTIVE. About two years ago Mrs. Barbara Watt, of Roxburg-street, Newcastle, N.S.W., made a declaration for publication far and wide, that after being a helpless cripple from paralysis for nearly three years Dr. Williams Pink Pills had restored tho use of her limbs. Her ease was such a striking one that it was the talk of the neighbourhood. A representative who was in the Newcastle district a few weeks ago found that Mrs. Watt was away visiting; this alone, for a woman who had never left her house for three years, is remarkable. The neighbours who were seen spoke freely of Mrs. Watt's cure, said she was enjoying tho beet of health, and was A LIVING MONUMENT TO DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS. In tho account of her cure originally given, Mrs. Watt, said: — ""About three years ago, while doing a little washing, I was overtaken with a stroko of Paralysis. I fell to tho ground, absolutely powerless. I lay in this terrible plight for over three hours, until some membors of my family found me. I was laid on my bed a helpless wreck. It was impossible for me to move my arms or legs. The pain I suffered was terrible. Not ono part of my body that did not give me the most excruciating pains. It was utterly impossible for mo to move my hand. The little food that I ate had to bo placed in my mouth, and they had to wash my face and do my hair. 1 had several doctors attending me; they said I had a stroke of paralysis. They did everything possible to give me relief. For threo months I lay as if dead. When my husband found that I received no relief from the doctors he decided that I should try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I started them, and' after two weeks I could move a little. By the time I had taken 10 boxes I could sit up and eat my meals, wash my face and dress my' hair. I continued with Dr. Williams' . Pink Pills till I reached about 18 boxes, when I could get out of bed and walk to tho chair. In all, I took 25 boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and only for them I am confident I never would have walked again. I have great faith in them, and most of tho residents of Stockton know of my case, and how Dr. Williams' Pink Pills made mo walk again. I cannot speak too highly of them. Not long ago I walked as far as the ferry wharf—something I never expected to do— and I am able to dress myself." Mr. Watt confirms his wife's story in every respect, and regards her cure as a certain marvel.
There are a few shopkeepers who try to sell their own lines when a well-known article liko Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is asked for, and this is not fair to the customers, as Dr v Williams' Pink Pills have a world-wide reputation, bocauso of their wonderful cures. Tho best thing to do is to trade whero substitutes are not pushed. Tho price of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is 3s per box; six boxes 163 6d, and if there is any trouble in getting them looally they will, bo sent post paid by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., of Australasia, Ltd., Wellington, on receipt of price. « it.
