THE TERRIBLE INFLUENZA.

ITS RAVAGES ARE APPALLING—

ONLY PROMPT MEASURES CAN RESTORE THE SUFFERER TO HEALTH. The people of this country have good cause to view with alarm an outbreak of

influenza, as it leaves behind it more

shattered constitutions than any other i known disease. Mr Edward Botting, for } -10 years a councillor of the united township of Bedford, Olden and Palmerston, in \ Frontenac County, is one who nearly fell a j victim to this scourge. To a Whig corres-! pondent Mr Botting said: "About two ! years ago I had a bad attack of influenza, j and the after effects of that malignant j trouble brought me so low that my friends, despaired of my recovery. I was troubled with severe and constant pains in the back, sensations of extreme dizziness, weakness, and was 'in fact in a generally used-up

condition. I had read frequently of Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and felt they mu9t have some special virtues, else they could not obtain such strong endovaation in all parts of the country. I determined to try them, and I bless the day that I came to that conclusion. Before the first box was finished I felt benefited, and I continued their use until I was as strong as ever. I consider Dr Williams' Pink Pills the best medicine sold, and I woitld not be without them in the house if they cost me 6dol a box."

Dr Williams' Piuk Pills have had marvellous success in removing the after effects of influenza and restoring sufferers to their former vigom*. No other medicine can accomplish the results they achieve, and those who have suffered with influenza should use them without delay.
