THE TERRIBLE INFLUENNA.
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 the outbreak of influenza, as it leaves behind it more shattered constitutions than any other 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 victim to this scourge. To a “Whig” correspondent, Mr Botting said: “About two years ago, I had a bad attack of influenza, and the after effects of that malignant 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 must have some special virtues, else they could not obtain such strong endorsation 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 would not be without them in the house if they cost me sdol. a box.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills hare had marvellous success in removing the after effects of influenza and restoring sufferers to their former vigour. No other medicine can accomplish the results they achieve, and those who have suffered with influenza should use them without delay.
