SAVED BY HIS FRIEND.

Mr Anders Bergerson has had an experience which, to use his own words, “will suffice for a lifetime.” Mr Bergerson is a shearer, and in the “off” season resides at Makaretu. “You must know,” he told our reporter, ‘that shearers see a good deal of lifetravelling from one shed to another during the season, they cover a good deal of country. I remember well the good turn a friend did for me when I had what I might term ‘the experience of my life.’ It was whilst shearing in October, ’97, after a long spell of wet weather, that I was seized with terrible pains in the hip down the back of the thigh, under the knee and right down to the ankle. It was just like hot needles boring through me, and 1 was told it was sciatica. No doubt, the attack was the result of exposure to the wet. Then a dull, aching pain came in my back, a symptom, I believe, of kidney disease, and 1 could never obtain a good night’s rest. For a year this went on, and the agony 1 suffered was terrible. I tried everything 1 could think of, including many advertised remedies, but without avail. Then a friend suggested that I should try Dr. Williams’ pink pills. My sleep improved before I had finished the first box, and the pains in my limbs and back gradually lessened. I continued with Dr. Williams’ pink pills, which soon effected a complete and permanent cure. My back is straight and strong now. I can use my limbs freely and without pain. I eat and sleep well. For disorders of the blood and nerves, Dr. Williams’ pink pills are, in my opinion, unrivalled.” This is the universal verdict, for Dr. Williams’ pink pills have cured, in all parts of the world, over sixteen thousand cases of sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, bronchitis, lung and chest disorders, consumption, liver and kidney troubles, St. Vitus’ dance, scrofula, eczema, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, and nervous disorders. The genuine have the full name, Dr. Williams’ pink pills for pale people, printed in red ink on white paper. Sold by chemists and storekeepers and by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington, N.Z. Price, three shillings per box. six boxes sixteen and sixpence, post free. No sufferer should hesitate to trv the remedy which has brought brightness P’t'l health to thousands of homes all ov' r ‘he world.
