DISCOVERY AT WOOLLAHRA.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES. A RETORT having reached us that a discovery had been made at Woollahra which would prove of great interest to the general public, we at once dispatched a reporter to the scene of interest to gather full and reliable information. We are indebted to Mr Ed. Parsley, pianoforte tuner, of 1!) Waverley-road, for the description supplied. This gentleman very courteously received our representative, and in reply to him, said : " 1 have been resident in Australia for the greater part of my life, and have seen but little of my native heath, having come out here with my parents at a very early age. I am a pianoforte tuner by profession, and am well-known throughout the colony ; this latter fact should add weight to my statements, " Now to deal with the surject of your visit. I have on and off for the last 15 years been a martyr to rheumatism, and, indeed, have quite recently recovered from a very severe attack. My discovery is that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People am an unfailing remedy for this torturing disease, and to emphasise my case I must tell you that each of my ailments —for I had more than one, as you will learn later—were so formidable as said to be incurable by the hospitals and (lectors by whom I was treated. Towards the end of April last year I had a very bad attack of rheumatism, and this was accompanied by a swelling in the groin, but without pain. A chemist gave inc some liniment to rub on the affected part, but this brought temporary relief only. After this I went to work again for two or three days, but was scon compelled to give in, being unable to continue any longer. 1 then consulted a doctor." " Was his treatment successful ?"

" No, he toid me mine was an exceptional case, and he could give me but little assistance ; that I was suffering from a complex trouble—hip joint disease with locomotor ataxia, My eyesight was also failing ; this, he said, often accompanied cases of locomotor ataxia. An eminent oculist told me that it was a case of optic atrophy." "What did you do then, Mr Barsley ?" "I went to three different hospitals in all, and came out no better than when I went io. A friend I met in one hospital asked me if I had given Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial; I said I had not. My friend at once advised me to do so, adding that he knew of some wonderful cures they bad effected in cases of locomotor ataxia." " Did you follow his advice ? " " 1 am rejoiced to say I did." " With what result?" " Well, by the tune I had taken three boxes I felt better, and for this reason determined to go on with them. The benefits derived from continuing the treatment are very evident. I can now move about fairly well, getting upstairs and downstairs without any assistance, whereas when I left the hospital I could only crawl about with difficulty. I am returning to my usual avocation of pianotuning, and that, as you know, requires a clear head and the use of one's limbs." " And you feel equal to it, Mr Parsley ': " "I feel quite equal to it, and more too, for I shall be constantly travelling through the colony, and of this I shall be doubly glad, as it will afford me a valuable opportunity to bring sufferers and sceptics face to face with practical proof of the wonderful curative powers possessed by Dr. Williams" l'ink Pills for Pale People." for the informal-ion of sufferers from hip disease, we would specially mention that in connection with the above marvellous cure that the hip bone Mas dislocated, necessitating the muscles and tissues doing extra duty for it. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured numerous cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxy, spinal disease, rheumatism and sciatica; also of diseases arising from impoverishment and vitiated humours of the blood, which cause scrofula, rick its, chronic erysipelas, consumption of the bowels and lungs, aiueinia, pale and sallow complexion, general muscular weakness, loss of appetite, palpitations, pains in the back, nervous headache, early decay, all forms of female weakness and hysteria. These pills are not a purgathe. They are genuine only with the lull name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and are sold by chemists and by Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington. N.Z., who will forward (post paid) on receipt of stamps or post order, one box foi •"!-, or half-dozen for |."is. (Id. They arc unrivalled as atonic fot both sexes.
