Serious Assault on a Farmer.

POUR TO ONE. THE ASSAILANTS ARRESTED. To be set upon by roughs and almost killed after going through nearly 60 years of life without accident to health or limb Is one of the hardest experiences we know of. Snob, though, was the fate of Mr. Geo. Batchelor, a farmer on the Horton River, N.S.W., who at 59 years of age, just when his strength would prove most valuable, became the victim of the attacks of those enemies to life and limb — Insomnia, Nervous Debility, Despondency, and Intense Suffering. He was rescued, however, by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Our reporter, who found him ploughing, obtained the following particulars — " I think." said Mr Batchelor, " my case is one that should have all the publicity possible. lam sixty five years of age, and have been resident in this district for about twelve years Prior to my coming here, I had always et- joyed the best of health, and I had been accustomed to work very hard About six years ago, however, all my energy seemed to gradually desert me. I suffered acutely and constantly from pains in my limbs, lost my appetite, and for months at. a stretch I did not know what it was to get a good night's sleep. Work of the very slightest nature at last became the question with me, and I could do nothing but sit by the window and content myself by watching the others working the farm. I gave up all hope of ever being able to do any more work, and almost believed that every week which commenced would be my last. In my endeavors to stay the ravages of the ailment which had overtaken me, and was gradually drawing me into the grave, I tried inumerable so called cures, and swalowed an immense quantity of medical compounds, but beyond giving me temporary relief occasionally, none of them did me any good; in fact, I honestly believe that the majority of them only aggravated my sufferings. A few months back I was just on the point of giving up in despair when I happened to < pad in a newspaper of some wonderful cures tffected by Dr, Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and I determined to give them a trial. After taking the first box, I felt considerably relieved, and so marked was the im. j proveraent in my strength that I decided to ! continue their use. I did so, and up to the present time I have taken five boxes. My inability has all disappeared, and I am pleased to say that to-day I am as strong and hearty as I ever was in my life. It is no trouble to me to do a day's farm work now, and I feel quite equal to the task of walking at least thirty miles a day. Everyone who knows me can testify to the great cure Dr Williams' Pink Pilla have effected in me, and in recommending them for simi'ar cases to mint I can honestly say that they are worth more than their weight in gold. If everybody knew their true value, there would be no other medicines sold." A remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished condition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system, such as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia. St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, and the tired feeling arising therefrom, the after effects of la grippe, influenza, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, &o. is possesei by Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, whioh give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions. They are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, and exoesses of any nature. They are genuine only with the full name, Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and are sold by all chemists and by the Dr Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward (post paid), on receipt of stamp ■ or p»st order, one box for 33.. or half dozen for 15s. 9d. They are unrivalled as a tonic for both sexes, particularly in the present close and prostrating heat. These pills are not a purgative, and will not injute the delicate of constitutions.
