From the " Republican," Princeton, 111.

Mr F. W. Stevens is well-known in Tiskilwa, 111. For the past 3 years he has conducted the cleanest and most attractive meat market in the city. His business is done on a large scale, and is both retail and wholesale. He is recognised as one of the city's most progressive business men, being always prominent as a leader. Mr Stevens says that some months ago his wife, whose health had never been of the best, began to show symptoms of an early decline, which he feared would result seriously unless something could be done for her. She appeared to lose the greater part of her usual interest in the affairs of the family and household. Mr Stevens says he bad repeatedly cautioned her about going too long without proper medical attendance, but she would keep putting it off until he took the matter mto his own hands and summoned the family physician who diagnosed her complaint as chlorosis or green sickness. She was also troubled with coldness of the bands and feet resulting from a very impoverished condition cf the blood The general debility of the system was par ticularly well-marked, and the above coupled with tardy and irregular periods' made Mrs Stevens a very sick and miserable woman.

For a space of iwo weeks she followed strictly the rules laid down by her physician. At times she felt somewhat more at ease, but there was evidence that no improvement had commenced. The patient, who had faithfully expected immediate results from the treatment, beg,-n to fall into fits of despondency which would sometimes last a week or more Mr Stevens says that one day he picked up a piece of paper in his store, which on reading, proved to be a circular about Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. " I noticedthe Pills were said to be used as a specific for all the ills woman is heir to and this set me to thinking. I figured that they couldn't do her much more harm than the various decoctions and compounds the doctors had prescribed for her, and if they did her. no good why there ww no ham done, tutf no gmt amount

of money squandered. I sent my clerk out at once to get a box ot the Pink Pills, \ and that day at supper-time my wife commenced taking them. "At this time she was in a very enfeebled condition and her stomach very weak. She would sometimes be unable to re';ain even a glass of water. . The first few doses seemed to have a good effect in soothing her at night. She slept better, and felt and looked fresher in tha morning than she had for months. Her mental condition appeared to receive fully as much benefit as her physical, for she was n?ore inclined to look at the brighter side of matters, instead of constantly hunting out the dark features. " She kept right on taking the pills, and the favorable symptoms became more marked. We all felt as if she was on a very fair road to recovery. Time proved that she was, indeed, for 1 do not believe you will find in the city a healthier woman than my wife. She has no bad symptoms whatever, she has gained in weight, and we all know that she owes it to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peeple. " Wait a moment, I'm not through yet. I want to do as much for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as I feel they have done for \ us," said Mr Stevens, as the reporter after thanking him for the courteous atten- i tion shown, was about to take his leave, j Mr Stevens said :_ "My wife had no more than recovered when my son Verne began to look thin and puny. He had plenty of good food, exercise and in general, as healthy surroundings as :most of us, but that did'nt seem to help much. He had fever and ague, and everything pointed to a malarious condition of the system. The doctor said that there was a poor assimilation, and did all he could to I help him.

<l We noticed no favorable results, and finally I made up my mind that if Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People had increased his mother's weight and enriched her blood, it might do the same for him. He began taking them, 'and almost from the first day, began to feel better. He always awoke in the morning with a foul-tasting mouth. He remarked the second or third morning after he began taking the pills, that this had left him, and he felt like eating his breakfast. You never saw anyone's recovery so rapid and complete as that boy's, and he hasn't had any return either. " There is nothing visionary or that looks like guesswork about what I have told you, we know what the remedy is, for we have I believe given it as thorough a test as it ever had.

" Yes sir, I can truthfully say that I believe these pills, if given a fair chance, will prove a permanent cure for lots of diseases that people are suffering from." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured numerous cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxia, spinal disease, rheumatism, and sciatica ; also of diseases arising" from impoverished and vitiated humors of the blood,- which cause t»corfula, rickets, chronic erysipelas, consumption of the bowels, and lungs, an&mia, pale and sallow complexion, general muscular weakness, loss of appetite, palpitations, pains in the back, nervous headache, early decay, all forms of female weakness, and hysteria. These pills are not a purgative. They are genuine only with the full name. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and are sold by chemists and Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward (post paid) on receipt of stamps or post order, one box for 3s, or half-dozen for 15s 9d. They are unrivalled^as a tonic for both sexes.
