THE SEARCH FOR GOLD.

DANGERB AND DISASTERS ATTEND. ING IT. Gold may be del red for and .discovered, bat- it avails little'if health, the vital principal of bliss, is lost. Numbers are now taking their depart are for the Alaskn gold mines in the hope of building up a fortune. •Those so contemplating would do well to note the remarks of an experienced digger, who, after years of suffering from troubles incidental to a miner's life, obtained permanent relief by taking Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. " I shall be pleased to let everyone know what Dr Williams* Pink Pills did for me," said Mr George Browcn, of Gipps-street, Sorry Hills," Sydney, to a reporter of the Leichhardt " Standard." H I hare found them tc b 3 a wonderful medicine. Ire worked r,n rarious diggings at different tim<w». One day I caught what seemed like *ii ordinary cold ; but at the end of a fortnight I found myself so ill that I had to stop working. I was working at the time at Forbes, and was said tc be suffering from what is very often called ' Forbes ferer,' but whai is more generally known as low ferer. These are some of the symptoms that I had : Small sharp shooting pains in back and joints, a feeling of great weariness, although I was doing nothing, very uncertain and small appetite, a queer inky taste in the mouth, and a thirstwhich never entirely left mo. Itdid n't matter how much water or tarI drank, I conldn't satisfy my thirst, and although I felt r_ery heav« and drowsy I could not sleep. That in* after I went to bed, 1 would fall aeieep for half-an-hour or so only, to wake again suddenly, and lie tossing about till perhaps near morning. However, I managed to get to see a doctor, and he told me I was suffering from low ferer and ague, and he dosed me pretty heavily with quinine, the rery drug I bad been taking all the time. He also suggested that I should more to some healthier locality. I did what be advised, and wert to Blayney ; bafe instead of getting better I got worse, and at last I was only able to walk about with a stick like an old man oe a cripple ; my bones began to shov? through my skin, and my face was wretchedly thin, and of a sickly pale color. I went to another doctor, but his medicine did me no good. Some of their tonics would just gire me relief for a time, but that soon died away and left me as bad as ever. X forgot to tell you that I frequently experienced a terrible beating of the heart, together with a flushing of the face, and a queer, thick, and dizzy feeling in the .head. I had physic from five or six doctors altogether, but none of it had any permanent effect, and when I saw a letter in the "Sunday Times" about Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, I hardly thought it was worth while trying them. I bad used so many different kinds of medicine without effect that I had determined I'd waste no more money in this way. Well, a friend orer-persuaded me, as they say, and I gave these pills a chance, and decided to go into hospital if they did m>z no good. I suppose I had been takr.g them for two or three days t when one morning I woke up and found that T6 been asleep all night. I felt quite refreshed, and a trifle hungry, ton. From, that moment I began to meed. I took the pills regularly, and they helped ins along finely, my appetite returning ir,. fnll force, my cheeks began to till onfe again, and to get their proper color, In about two months I was able to start work again, and shortly after was completely cured. Since then I bars come to Sydney, and am now working at a lumber Bb'ip at Jobnstone'e Bay, 1 and I never feel any* effects from my long spell of illness. 14 1 am quite sure that Dr Williams* Pink Pills for Pale People hare put me on my legs again, and I shall always swear by them. "I authorise the Dr Williatae" Medicine Go. to publish my testimonial, whererer, and whenerer, and in whatever manner they wisb, and I shall be pleased to make a statutory declaration in rerification of my testimonial, if desired by the said Com< pany. "JORGH BBOWEN. " Witness to Browen's signature— PHILIP L BEIDGES, Eegistered Chemist, residing at Walsh's Hotel Castlereagh-street, Sydney. " Norember 18th, 1897." The action of Dr Williams' Pit>% Pills for Pale People is directly on tht> blood, and thus it is that they are so famous for the cure of anemia and rheumatism, weak heart, scrofula, consumption, chronic erysipelas, §ud restore pale and sallow complexions i<y the glow of health. They are also a splendid nerve and spinal tonic, and thus hare cured many cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxia, neuralgia, St. Vitus' Dance, and nervous headache. They are sold by chemists, and by Dr Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., at 3s a box, or six for 15s 9d, but are genuine ooly with the fall name on each box. See that your chemist does not substitute something just as good when making your purchases. The " JOSt 88 good " kind ct st him less money, and he is looking out for his pocket, not your health. The genuine Dr Williams' Pink Pills are put up in boxes only, each of which is encircled by a blue warning label. The outside wrapper is of white paper, and bears the firm's trade mark printed in red ink". Ton may hunt the world over and you will not find anothei medicine eqaal to Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea* Bemedy for bowel complaints. It it pleasant safe and reliable. For Ilia by.
