A MIRACLE IN VICTORIA.

SENSATIONAL OCCURRENCE IN A MELBOURNE SUBURB. DR WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS FOE PALE PEOPLE SCORE A GREAT VICTORY. CASE FULLY INVESTIGATED BY THE CAE ETON GAZETTE. Mrs Margaret Ross is a fine sample of the class that has done so much to turn the wastes of inland Victoria into smiling homesteads. Originally she resided at Ueathcote, and there, soma two decades since, witnessed the fluctuations of mining fortune that made the locality historical in Victorian mining annals. Some years later she removed to Alexandra, and in the vicinity of that pretty township—close to the Acheron Mrs Ross and .family lived up to two years since, when, coming to Melbourne with her husband, (they took charge of the wellknown grocery store at the junction of Eathdownand Palmerston streets, where a representative of the Carlton Gazette found her ready and willing to discourse on the immense benefits she had received from a course of Dr Williams’ Pills for Pale People. Mrs Ross looked the picture of health, and courteously requested the reporter to be seated. There was a smile of genuine welcome when his mission was explained and the history of her particular malady and its cure solicited.

“ Neuralgia," replied Mrs Ross, “ was the complaint I suffered from for a period of 10 or 12 years. During the day-time my sufferings were painful, but on retiring to rest the agony I suffered was excruciating, reducing me to a state of general collapse. I felt it during the day slightly, but most severely at night.” " Did you consult any doctors at all ?” “ Many; but received no permanent benefit. They gave me draughts and powders, but the effect was really nothing.” “ You, of course, have tried other remedies ?"

“ Yes j Ii tried everything, but obtained no relief."

“ What induced you to try Dr Williams* Pink Pills for Pale People P” “ An elderly lady, resident at Heathcote, 74 years of age, who had been a sufferer from rheumatism for 40 years, and who had been absolutely cured by their use, recommended me to try the Pink Pills for Pale People.” “ How long since might that be ?” “ Six weeks since—the beginning of July. During the time I .was taking the first box I lost only one night’s rest, but since then I have never had the least return of the old complaint.” “ Have you used much of the medicine ?”

“ About four boxes. Previous to my taking them the pain in my head reduced me to such a state that 1 was on the verge of madness. The last three years I had been very bad, so you can imagine the pleasure it was to me to find a remedy that has actually made a now woman of me." “That is so,” remarked Mr Ross, who was present. “ Had you seen my wife a few months since and now, you would scarcely believe her to be the same woman.”

“Yes,” added Mrs Ross, “my recovery has been most pronounced and satisfactory to me. I have great faith in Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and recommend them wherever possible." Congratulating Mrs Ross on her recovery, and expressing a hope that she would live long to enjoy the blessing of good health, the reporter withdrew. In all cases similar to the above.
