The War.

SICKNESS IN CUBA. AMERICA CAUTIOUS. HER FORCES PREPARED. America has deemed it advisable, owing to the great mortality cow prevailing, and the near approach of the unhealthy season in Cuba, to take precautionary measures for safeguarding the health of her forces engaged there. As showing the imperativeness of this step, not only have her own forces been prepared, but arrangements are being made to supply the insurgents with medical stores. Taking to account the serious recommendations of General Wyles, Col. P. A. Hoffman, and other known military experts, it may safely be concluded that in the medicine-chest room will have been found for Dr. Williams' marvellous cure in the case of Mr. John Hinnigan, of 18 Bay-street West Sydney. "My illness," said Mr Hinnigan to the reporter who called upon him, "started as a good many other illnesses do —just a cold, and at first I didn't take much notice of it, for I've often had colds before and not rid of them in a week or so. This time, however, I didn't recover in the ordinary way, but began to get thin and weak. " This made me feel a bit nervous, especially as I couldn't tell exactly what was i he trouble with me. so I went to a chemist and got some medicine. But as, in spite of the physic, I continued to get thinner and weaker, I went up to the Sydney Hospital. The doctors there examined me, and told me I had a severe attack of influenza, and that I required medicine and rest. Well I did exactly as they ordered me, and took my medicine regularly four times a day, but I can't say I felt any better for it. What I know for certain is that I slowly continued to get worse and wetse. I lost my appetite altogether. I eat, certainly, but I might have been chewing up so much paper for all the pleasure that eating gave. I also lost my voice, so that I had to go quite close to people if I wished them to hear what I way saying, and my face regularly caved in about the jaws, and became a sort of dmgy yellow color, something like a piece of paper. I was just able te crawl out in the eun on fine days, and I was more than once taken fora fever-s ricken New Guinea miner ; and those poor fellows, as you know, ate nothing but skin and bone when they land back in Sydney. My mates can tell you what a wretched object I looked. I attended the hospital regularly from about the beginning of June last till the xnidd'e of July without any improvement in my condition, when, owing to an advertisement I had read in one of the papers' I bought a box of Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, although I must ten you I had almost lost all faith in any medicine whatever. I fancied I felt an improvement soon after starting the Pills, so I determined 10 give them a fair trial. The Pills did me more good that I could have hoped. In a a week's time I was fairly on the up grade, and began to get quite cheerful and to eat my food with relish. I stuck to the medicine, and took altogether four or five boxes, I forget which, and in the course of about six weeks, by sow but sure degrees, I was completely recovered. I think, considering what a wretchedly weak and miserable state I was in, that this is a very quick cure, aad is quite astonished my wife, who expected me to be ill for months. I can only ssy that I am now as ever I was, and I believe my cure is the result of Dr Williams' Pink Pill a for Palo People, and I shall recommend them to everyone. A- perfect blood -builder and a nerve restorer are to be found in Dr Williams' Pink Pills. - They positively cure such disea es as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor atax'a, S*. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, the after-effects on influenza, dengue and typhoid fevers, and severe cold?, diseases depending on humors in the blood such as scrofula, chronio erysipelas, &a PinkPUls givo a healthy g'.ow to pale and sallow complexions, and are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, and in in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of any nature. > Ask jour dealers for Dr Williams 1 Pink Piils for Pale people, and refuse all imitations and substitutes. (Sold by chemists and storekeepers generally, or the Dr Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., will forward on receipt of stamps or post order, one box for three shillings, or half-dozen for sixteen and sixpence. They are absolutely without an equal.
