Extraordinary Cures,

IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF NEWTOWN. A visitor to the suburbs of Sydney might spend a more profitless amount of time than would be occupied in calling upon Mr Sslter, of 89, Eose-street, Darlington, and inquiring into the veracity of the marvellous cure which had been lately effeoted in his own particular case by that well-known and unrivalled Blood Builder and Nerve Restorer, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Mr Salter, opon being interviewed bj * iftpvttet "whom •«« &sp&tak«d to interrogate him on this point, replied — 11 Yes, truly, I have had a marvellous escape from an agonising death, but I am now able to be about and pursue my calling, which is one that requires considerable bodily strength and activity." "What have jou been suffering from, Mr Salter?" " Pleurisy, in its worst form ; and when I tell you that I was an inmate of Prince Alfred Hospital for four months, and went through a terrible operation there, you can fully realise that my illness was no child's play." " How did you contract your illness, Mr Salter ?" " Well, my occupation is one that compels me to be out of doors in all weathers, and getting cold and wet, and not taking proper oara of myself, was, of course, the commencement of it." "And this operation you speak of, Mr Salter?" "It was an operation to remove the ' pus ' from the lungs, and a very critical one it was, too, I was forced to have two ribs removed, and little dreamt I should ever be able to go to work again. On leaving the hospital I had a number of doctors, but I cannot say that they benefited me much. Numbers of my friends were very kind to me— my landlord and .Others— for my being laid up for such a length of time did not conduce to my prosperity." " You look fairly well now, Mr Salter !" " I feel wonderfully well, and it all came about through a friend of ours— a Mr Green." "Do you mean Mr Charles Green, the well-known provision dealer, of Alicestreet, Newtown." " None other. He had been suffering for a long time from indigestion and a bad Cough, and he got completely cared by taking a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." " So, I suppose, he persuaded you to try them ?" "He did, and I am very grateful to him for having done so, for I experienced relief after the first box, which I took according to the printed directions, and I went on taking them until I waa able to work again ; and I have now been at work for a fortnight, as Mrs Salter or any of ths neighbors could tell you. My wife here has gone in for them herself, as she has not been at all well lately." "Is that so, Mrs Salter?" "Undoubtedly. I have been suffering from a severe pain in my left side, which has been on me for Bix years, and which leaves me weak and languid. I am taking the Pills, and they already have done me a great deal of good, a3 I feel twice the woman I did, and I am going steadily on with them." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are not a purgative ; they are not like other medicines, nor can they be imitated, as is sometimes dishonestly pretended. Take care that the Pills are put up in wooden boxes, and that the package bears the full name, "Dr. Williams' Pink Pilla for Pale People," and in case of doubt send direct to Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, N.Z., or the Pills can be had, post free, at 3s, or six boxes for 153 9d. They have cured numerous cases of rheumatism, paralysis, locemotor ataxy, sciatica, influenza, anaraia, palpitations, and the disorders which arise from impoverished blood, puch as muscular weakness, loss of appetite, shortness of breath, pain in the baok, nervous headache, early decay, and all forms of female weakness. Pink Pills sold loose or from glass jars are not the pills that cured Mr Salter, but a useless imitation ; insist on the full name.
