A Protracted Search. « POUND AFTER 30 YEABS. History records the names of those eminent in their profession, who, in the interest of scientific discovery, have given the be<t years of their Hvts to researo . Amongst inventors there may be numbered many whose victories have only b»en attained after years of ceaseless toil. Thirty years, howover, is a long time to devote lo one special object, and keen must be be who, after many failures, continues h's self-imposed task. Mr W. Filmer, of Abbott Street, West Maitland, compositor by profession, supplied our reporter with information regarding bis 30 y< ars' search and its ultimate success: "You must know," he remarked, " that I was afflicted for many years with chronic diarrhoea. My sufferings were indeed intense, notwithstanding all my oare with regard to diet, &c. Mb. Filmeb. (From a Photo.) It is now about thirty years since I first became subject to it, and during all that time I have sought ceaselessly for a remedy which would care my complaint. I fell away to a mere skeleton, grew weak, lost all confidence in my power, and finally got so debilitated that after any attack I was seized with fainting fi's, which eventually left me perfectly prostrate and helpless." " You felt very ill, indeed, then ?" " Yes ; so bad that my medical adviser ordered me a change last year, as a last resource. Whilst in Newcastle soon after, I met a friend who had suffered for ten years in the sama manner as myself, and on his strong advice I resolved to give Dr Williams' pink pills a (rial. I procured three boxes and took them, wi'h the most satisfactory results. From the outset my head grew clearer, my appetite increased, and I grew rapidly stronger, and I can most oonscientious'y cay that three and a half or four boxes of these justly famous pills have brought about my oomp'ete recovery. To-day I feel better than I have for the past 30 years. During the last nine months my weight has increased 13 pounds. Should ( over again be affected in a similar manner. I wou d have no hesitation in takinp thes<* pills, and feel quite certain of their giving me a'most instant relief. In sending this testimonial to the proprietors of Dr Wi Hams' pink pills, I consider I am performing my duty, for byils publication other sufferers may learn that a rpmedy is procurable. It would make their sufferings things of the past." Thousands of peop'e in a'l parts of the word tell us they have been cured of rheumatism, s-.'iatica, neuralgia, cdughs and cold, bronchiti*. pneumonia, pleurisy, indigestion, anaemia, debility, Ac, by these pil's, which are sod by all dealers, and by the Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington N.Z. ; price. tV.rea shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and sixpence (post free). See that the full name, all seven words, Dr Williams' pink pi'ls for pale peop'e, is printed in rsd on the outside wrapper, as those are the j i'ls which cured My Firmer.

Swelled head is the most pitiable of seizures. If it arises from inordinate se'festeem, then it is aIBO ridicu'ous and the sufferer had belter climb down before the inevitable fall.
