A Wool-ganger in Trouble.

A wool-ganger, of No. 4 Globe-street, Circular Quay, by the name of Arthur Andrew Belfitt, interviewed the other day by a reporter, stated that he had for a long time been a terrible martyr to indigestion, which, but for Dr. Williams* Pink Pills for Pale People, might have ended disastrously. He says : "I am in excellent health now, although a few months ago you would hardly have known me, I looked so ill and changed. I was suffering from that most miserable of complaints, "indigestion," and it pulled me down tremendously. The first thing that troubled ma was a slight .feeling of discomfort after meals. I thought something had upset me, and that a good dose of purgative medicine and a little starvation would have put me right ; but I was mistaken. Although I was very careful orer what I ate and drank, and although I took what I thought wa« suitable medicine, I got worse daily. I lost my appetite, and I continually had an unpleasant taste in my mouth, •specially on getting up in the mornings. I slept poorly at nights, and at odd occasions black ■pecks would come before my eyes so that I could hardly see. At times, too, I suffered front bad headaches and I was very often siok, and my complexion was yellow and unhealthylooking. At I&st I became so weak that I had to entirely give up my work as a woolganger. I tried many of the medicines advertised to euro indigestion, but was disgusted with them, all, as they did me no good at all. Then a friend of mine told me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pilla for Pale People. He said they cured him, and as I said I intended to waste no more money in medioines, he gave me a few pills that he had with him. These pilla seem to have a decidedly good effect, so I then bought gome and started to take them regularly. In a very short time there was a wonderful change for the better in my condition. I began to eat my food again with appetite, and, what's more, digest it properly too. I could, I may say, positively feel the pills doing me good. I soon put on my lost flesh and regained my strength, and in less than two months' time was completely restored to health again. That's how Dr Williams' Pink Pills cured me, and you may depend upon it I shall always recommend them, and I authorize the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. to publish my testimonial wherever, whenever, and in whatsoever manner they may deem fit." A remarkable efficacy in curing diseasei arising from an impoverished condition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system such as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor alazia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, and the tired feeling therefrom,,, the after-effect! of la grippe, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, Buoh as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc., is possessed by Dr Wil*, Hams' Pink Pills; and they also give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions, and are a speoific for troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arisiog from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of any nature. They are sold only in boxes bearing the firm's trade mark and wrapper (printed in red ink). They are never sold in bulk, or by the dozen or hundred, and any dealer who offers substitutes in this form is trying to defraud, and should be avoided. Experiencing any difficulty in obtaining the genuine Dr Williams' send direct to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward (post paid), on receipt of stamps or post order, one box for 2s 9d, or half dozen for 15s 3d. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are unrivalled as a tonic for both sexes.
