THE EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF THOMAS JARVIS.
>?•• ''ide*ptet'(! tio> been '.a, hitsiui; taken in the c&iz o! Tlicu.-.iv Jiiivis that a special reporter wr.3 .r-ct down to investigate it, and give the facts as he found them. Thomas Jarvis stated in reply to the query, "How do you row leel, Mr Jarvis?" "Ever so much better. I can now walk about and get up three flights of stairs, as I did last week when 1 strolled up to the top flight of the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.'s establishment, as I wanted to give them ocular demonstration of what I now could do and what Dr. Williams' l'iuk Fills had done for me. I think it a fair psrformauuo for a man who has been given up as incurable by the doctors and told he will never regain the use of Ins legs." " I suppose they were surprised to-see you ': " "They were, indeed; for you must know that mine was a bad case of locomotor ataxia, ivhioh has hitherto been pronounced incurable. That it is curable 1 can most solemnly assert. I air. improving in health daily ; can enjoy my coin tub in the morning, oat my breakfast with a good appetite, and commence once more to enjoy life. Anyone that has suffered the excruciating agony I have knows what it is to enjoy that happy state, convalescence." " I suppose most, everyone has read in the papers a detailed account of your severe illness and recovery, Mr Jarvis ? " •'They must have it they read the papers at all, because it has been one of the most sensational occurrences in medical circles of this year, for certainly as far as the theory went locomotor ataxia was incurable, 1 am a striking example to the contrary, and this has all been accomplished by that simple remedy, Dr. Williams'Pink Pills for Pale People. Although I have by no means been a lucky man in my journey through life 1 was certainly lucky the day my eye caught an advertisement of a cure effected by them. It was a case of another boilermaker in England, and reading of the cure effected in his case, I commenced taking them, with the surprising results chat you now witness." Dr. Williams' l'iuk Pills for Pale People are an unfailing specific for such diseases ataxia, paralysis, St. Vitus dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of influenza, palpitation of the heart, that tired reeling resulting from nervous prostration ; all diseases resulting from vitiated humours in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities, and all forms of weakness. They build up the blood, and restore the glow of hi alth to pale and sallow cheeks. In men they effect a radical cure in ad cases aiising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of whatever nature. There arc no ill effects following the use of this wonderful medicine, and it can be | given to children with perfect safety.
