What the Neighbours say of a Ilewcastle Wonvui* A Helpless Cripple with Paralysis Unable to Move. Cured Nearly Two Years ago b? Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and is Still Well and Active. Alp •• i nvo years ago Mrs Barbara Watt, of Boxburg Stieet, Ne.voiiwtle, N.S.W., made a '< deelaiation for publication far and wide, that after bt> ing a heiplesi C:i;>ple from paralysis ' for nearly three years, Dr Williams' Pink ! Pills had restored the use of her limbs. Her ca?e vassueh a striking one that it was the !• talk of the neighbourhood. A repiesentative | who wan in the Newcastle District a few j weeks ago, found that Mrs Watt was away ' visiting, this alone for a woman who had . never left h r house for three years is re- j markable. The neighbours who were seen j spoke freely of Mrs Watt's cure, said she was I enjoying the best of health, and was A Living Monument to Dr Williams' I Pink Pills. In the account of her cure originally given Mrs Watt said— J "About three years ago, while doing a little washing, I was ovei taken with a stroke of paralysis. I fell to the ground, absolutely powerless. I lay in this terrible plight for over three hours, until some members of my family found me. I was laid on my bed a helpless wreck. It was impossible for me to move mv arms or legs. The pain I suffered was terrible, Not one part of my body that did not give me the most excruciating pains. It wis utterly impossible for m: to move my hand. The little ft od that I eat had to be placed in my mouth, and they had to wash my face and do my hair. I had several doctors attending me; they said 1 had a stroke of paralysis. They cad everything possible to give me relief. For three months I lay as if dead. When my bus and found that 1 received no relief from the doctors he decided that I should try Dr Williams' Pink Pills. I i started them and after two weeks I could j move a little. By the time I had taken 10 ; boxes I could sit up and eat my meal-!, wash j my face and dress my hair. I continued with j Df Williams' Pink Pills till 1 reached about 18 boxes, Avhen I could get out of bed and j ■valk to the chair. In ail I took 25 boxes of Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and only for them I am confident that 1 never would hive walked again. I have great faith in them, ana most of the residents of Stockton know of my case, and how Dr Williams' Pink Pills made me walk \ can'ot speak too highly of them. Not long ago 1 walked as far as the ferry wharf —something I never expected to do—and I am able to dress myself." Mr Watt confirms his wife's story in every respect, and regards her cure as a certain marvel. v There are a few shop-keepers who try to sell their own lines when a well-known article like Dr Williams' Pink Pills is asked for, and this is not fair to the customers, as Dr Williams' Pink Pills have a world-wide reputation, because of their wonderful cures. The best thing to do is to trade where substitutes are not pushed. The price of Dr Williams' Pink Pills is 3s uer box ; six boxes 16/fi, and i f there is any trouble in getting them locally, the*' will be sent post paid by the Dr Williams' Medicine Co , of Australasia, Ltd,, Wellington, oa receipt of price.
