A “Brother’s Pride” Emigrant.

That stout old vessel, “The Brother’s Pri le,” brought many a sturdy emigrant from the old land to New Zealand, and there are many pioneers here yet who can recount their voyage ont in that stout but (to us) quaint and historical vessel. Amongst these early pioneers, Mr William Brooks, of Geraldtou, South Canterbury, is still bale and hearty, and was pleased to chat with a reporter who called on him at his home in Talbot St.

The Brother's Pride (Emigrant Ship.) ■ Yes, it is over forty years ago,” he said reminiscing, "since I left my home in Cheshire and set sail for this colony in ‘ The Brother's Pride,' where, after a long and somewhat monotonous voyage, I landed in Lyttelton Since that time I have most y lived in the Canterbury di trict, and lam well-known in Christchurch I was engaged in agricultural pursuits for many years, often working in swampy land, but felt no ill effects until four years ago, when, whist gardening, I was seized with an attack of sciarica. A sharp, needle-like pain came in my hip and thigh. If I attempted to move, the pain became tenfold—indeed, so int’nse was it that I had to lay up, and from that time until comparative y recently I was ‘ in a bad way. The treatments I tried proved almost useless, and it was not till I heard of the ourat vc properties of Dr. Williams’ pink pills for pale people in cases of sciatica that I found relief. Attsr ; takiug .i-s.n for a ii tie time, the pain lessened -eiighty, and hy furthw pemvaraaw with them I tatau

quite cured. In addition to freeing me from the sciatica, they built up my blood vand nerves so well that I have never felt f better than I do now, and I eat more heartily and sleep more soundly than I have dona for years. lam quite confident that Dr. Wil iams’ pink pills,” said ho m conclusion, “ restored me to health, and I recommend sufferers to give them a trial.” The simple, straight-forward testimony of such sturdy colonists as Mr Brooks is the best possible kind of testimony that any Medicine can print. Dr Williams’ pi: k pills have thousands of such testimonials, given without fee or hope of reward—simply out of gratitude for the cure; Dr Williams’ pink pills are the compounded prescription of an eminent Edinburgh Univarsi’y physician. They aro the bo<-t blood bui dor and nerve tonic obtainable. There is abundant proof that they have cored cases of rheumatism, lumbago, neuralgia, bronchitis, consumption, dyspepsia, St. Vitus’ dance, hysteria, ladies’ ailments, loss of nervous force, &o. If your chemist or storekeeper dors not sell them, write to the Dr. Williams’ Medicino Co., Wellington, enclosing the price—sixteen and six for six boxes (three shillings for one).
