A CHANNEL ISLANDS BOY

STARTS BUSINESS IN ASHBURTON From the ruffed coasts of the Channel Islands to the smiling luxuriance of New Zealand is a far cry, but there is a man amongst us, a Mr F. B. Kobilliard, who has travelled the distance and become one of us (says a Christchurch paper). From Mr Robilliard’s own lips we obtain the! following ; “I was born,’’ said he, "in Guernsey, one of the Channel Islands, and came out to Christchurch when a boy. Sixteen- months ago X settled in Ashburton, commencing business in East Street as a watchmaker - and jeweller. A Channel Islands boy generally has a strong constitution, and until a year ago I did not know what ill-health meant. But possibly through over-work 1 became rim down. Indigestion set in, and then debility. After meals there was a terrible tightness across my chest, and I felt dull and drowsy, and suffered greatly from pain in the small of my back. Although I tried many alleged remedied, none of them benefited me, and I became such a sufferer from the pains of indigestion that I dared not eat a proper meal, thus I naturally grew weaker. Then I r >ad in the papers how Dr. Williams pmk pills had cured many dyspeptics. 1 purcliasod a supply and began taking them. After the first box my appetite improved a liltlo, and the pains niter meals wore not so severe. Another box ennpletely cured me. . Every symptom ol ciebilitv* and indigestion has disa./p ;aved, and! never foil better m my life than 1 do now.” Bv restoring tone to the digestive organs and enabling them to extract nourishment from the food taken , I>r '' >'■ liams’ pink pills restored Mr Robilliau to good health.
