A Man who swore before the MAYOR.

His worship the Mayor ofWalcha, N.S.W., recently received a request which surprised him greatly. It was to take the sworn testimony of a selector, Mr Denis Walsh, as to the benefits he had derived from Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, which he had taken for Bright’s disease. In order to learn the exact facts a reporter of the Walcha Witness went out out to Winterbourne two or three days ago. “ Is it a fact,” he asked, “ that you have been cured by Dr Williams’ Pink Pills ? ”

“ It is, he replied. “ I was in great pain for a long time, but I can now do any amount of hard work with the greatest ease. I first felt the pain after being thrown from a horse, and was laid up for twelve months. I tried almost everything without receiving any benefit.” “ And what is your object in giving, an unsolicited testimonial Mr Walsh ?

“ Simply that others msy derive benefit by the same means. For a long time I was in such frightful agony that I could do nothing. I had to crawl to a log to get on my horse X could not hold myself upright. I saw different doctors. One told me that my spine had been injured, and that I should have to undergo an operation. Another said that I had Bright’s disease. After a time I saw Dr Williams’ Pink Pills advertised. I tried to get a box, but no one kept them in Walcha, so I sent direct to Sydney for the first two boxes. After taking the first box I obtained relief, and continued to do so until completely cured. I have used five boxes in all, and life is uow a pleasure to me. While taking the pills I followed the directions given on each box. Many people I know have taken them without adhering to the instructions and have obtained no relief. Rubbing did me no good ; but after taking Dr Wiliams’ Pink Pills, I was convinced that my complaint was caused by the state of my blood. I can now run up and down the falls with the best of the hands on the station.”

“ You certainly look well,” said the reporter. “ Yes, thanks to Dr Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.”

Following is the sworn testimony of Mr Walsh : “ Sir,—l have been a sufferer for 22 years with Bright’s disease and a bad back, and very often could not lace my boots, and would have to go oh my hands and knees to gather anything from the ground. At times X was completely useless, and suffered considerable pain when I moved about, and lost the use of my logs. I tried every remedy and various doctors, even Chinese, but without any effect. I saw y° ur advertisement about Dr Pink Pills for Pale People,* am? resolved to give them a a trial. After 'M n S tbe first box 1 felt considerably improved, and went on using them with th>? result that I am now quite cured, have f? 0 P ams i* l the back, and felt as young as" I did 25 years ago ; in fact, I never felt better than I do now, and consider your pills a most valuable medicine. (Signed) DENIS WALSH. Signed and declared before me this 80th day of January, 1897. James N. B. Watts, Mayor, Walcha. The genuine Dr Williams’ Pink Pills are sold only in wooden boxes, about two inches in length, in a wrapper with the full name, Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People printed in red. They are never sold in hulk or from glass jars, and any dealer who offers substitutes in this form should be avoided. In case of doubt it is better to send direct to the Dr Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington, N.Z., enclosing the price, 3s a box, or six boxes for 15s Od. Those pills are not a purgative, and .they contain nothing that could injure the most delicate. As a spring medicine Dr Williams’ Fink Pills far surpass all other remedies. Their action on the blood and nerves is prompt, and the effect is wonderful. Lassitude gives way to a feeling of renewed energy, and the lurking seeds of disease, resulting from the indoor confinements of the winter months, are speedily expelled from the system. These pills are only sold in boxes, the wrapper around which bears the full trade mark, “ Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.” A pill, even in colored pink, offered in any other form, is a fraudulent imitation, and should be promptly refused. Buyers will protect themselves against imposition by bearing this in mind.
