the wash-tub, which she called doing a " day's wa&hing." It was, indeed, difficnlt to believe that the amount of " elbow grease " she laid into her labors that this interesting personage had lately been informed by medical men that here was a case which would probably develop into chronic rheumatism. " I have called, Mrs Brown," said our reporter, " to ascertain the truth of the rumor that has reached us of your having recently suffered from a severe attack of rheumatism." "It is quite true, but I am now happy to relate that I feel as well as I ever did. I have been suffering on and off from rheumatism for the last five years, and the slightest change in the weather used to give me most awful twinges. It chiefly affected my armB. If it had not baen for some of my f riendsl could never havo get through my household uuties. This complaint appeared to affect imy entire system, and as the money I had spent in doctor's advice and so-called remedies, why it makes me positively disgusted to think of. I began to think that if my sufferings continued life was not worth living. I remember one day, when reading the Evening News, that an advertisement caught my eye headed ' Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People cure Rheumatism, Sciatica, &c.' Now having wasted so much money already I was at first loth to try any more advertised medicines, but I thought ' in for a penny in for a pound,' so I invested in three bottles of this specific. "My husband laughed at me when I told him I was going in for a course of Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and said, ' Ol>, you are going to throw away some moi o money are you?' % " I said, ' Yes I am,' andright glad am I that I did so, for I am happy to tell you that they have done me all the goo<i in the world Why, I feel now a hraml new woman, and my husband Bays I look the ' pink 'of perfection now. Not ouly ha ?e I lost my rheumatic pains, but my appetite has returned, and I now can enjoy my food. In fact, myappeti'eis so good that Brown says I will eat him out of house and home. This change it? all due to Dr Williams' Pink Pills." ,' How many boxes have you taken, i Mrs Brown ?" " I have had seven boxes in all and I have so much belief in them that I intend always to keep a box by me, ami I shall recommend them to all my friends. You are quite at liberty to publish thisstatement, as I believo in giving credit, to whom credii is due." VICTORIAN HOME LIFE. — -o— — Mrs Margaret Ross is a fine sample of the class that has done so much' to turn the wastes of inland Victoria into " binil ing homesteads. ' Originally she resided at Heathcote, and theie, some two decades since, witnessed the fluctu.nion of mining fortune that made the locuHiy historical in Victorian mining anuaU. j {Some years latter Bhe removed to Alexandra, and in the vicinity of that pretty township — close to tho Acheron — Mrs Ross and family lived up to two years since, when, coming to Melbourne with her husband, they purchased tho weliknown grocery store at the junction of Rathdown and Palmerston streets, where a representative of the Carlton Gazette found her ready and willing to discour*o on the immense benefits she had received from a course of Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Mrs Ross looked the picture of health, and courteously requested our representative to be seated ; and there was a smile of genuine wel come when our 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 ten or twelve 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 severly after I got warm 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, I tried everything, but obtained no relief." "What induced you to try Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People ? ' "An elderly lady, resident at Heathcote, 74 years of age, and who bad been a sufferer from rheumatism for 40 years, and who has been absolutely curee by their use, recommended me to try Pink Pills for Pale People." "How long since might that be ?,' '•Six weeks since— the beginning of July. During the qime I was taking the first box I lost only one night's rest : but since then have never hid the least re turn of the old complaint." " Have you used much of the medicine ?"
