A CONTRACTOR IN TROUBLE.
A Perth journalist, in the course of business, became acquainted with an affair that excited his curiosity, and forthwith made it a matter of inquiry. The rumours all concerned Mr Richard Grose, a builder and contractor. At his residence, Leaderville (W.A.) the reporter stated what had
come to his ears, and the facts were not denied by Mr Grose. Asked if he would furnish further details, Mr Grose said: “Over a year ago when rising from bed one morning I became conscious of terrible shooting pains in my hip. I dressed, however, and went to work, but was soon forced to return home; the pains were too great. For seven months I was laid up with sciatica. The muscles of my legs seemed to be drawn up and wasted, and movement was painful. My right leg was useless. Four doctors attended me, but I was nqt -I then read of the beneficial effects of Dr. Williams’ pink pills and commenced them. I state the truth when I say that two boxes almost .cured me. I regained the use of my right leg. and the pain subsided. Five boxes cured me; since then I have been in perfect health, and can actually jump a five-railed fence, so there is no doubt of the completeness of my cure." Exposure, to cool and wet, over-ex-ertion, pressure or injury to the nerves, constipation, anaemia, general debility, gout or rheumatism, induce sciatica. Dr. Williams’ pink palls, by enriching the blood, retoniug the nerves, and placing the patient in perfect health, cure sciatica, and such ailments as rheumatism, neuralgia, skin diseases, chest and lung troubles, consumption, St. Vitus’ dance, rickets, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, stomach disorders, dyspepsia, insomnia, chronic headaches, loss of vital power, ladies’ ailments, etc. Sold by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, and by chemists and storekeepers.
