A JOCKEY'S TERRIBLE CONDITION.

A SERIES OF ACCIDENTS. It nay be taken for granted that nothing is further from the mind of the jockny, when liding a close-contested race, than the chances of an accident occuring, The frequency with which mishaps take place on the racecourse, however, te;vcs to illustrate the old saying, " Its the impacted that generally happens." MrT. H. Lampardjof 15Fisher-street, Adelaide, who was an intense sufferer from indigestion and internal injuries, the results of accidents with horses, and who has been completely cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, stated his case to a reporter as follows : " I have been a sufferer for years \\ ith Chronic Indigestion, and internal injuries received accidentally from horses. When I was sixteen years of ago a horse threw me heavily, which stunned me, and I lay unconscious for six hours. I was carried home to w here I was then living at East Wellington, Scuth Australia, and for days after was totally unab'e to move. 1 was again badly injured when riding the horse New Babylon, on the old course at Adelaide. The year ful owing, the horse Saunterer, which I owned and rode, fell with me at Nairne Race?, and rolling on me, broke ir.y left shou'dtr blade, fractured tome of my ribs, and bruised me all over, so that my body vent quite black. Nature c-ould not stand aU this knocking about. I began to ficl a strange numbness in my limb-, this increased as time went on, until one part of my body went quite dead, anl I could not feel anything whatever when a lucdle was pushed into that part I had plenty of medical advice, and consulted co less than seven doctors. Some.relieved me for a time.but o'liers were not able to benefit me in the least. I afterwards gob very bad, and resolved to try the various patent medicines that I saw advertised, and I really think I tried almost everything that was rtcommended as a cure for my complaints. Amongst other things I tried (Hi Electric Bolt, but that was not of the slight* st use, and I pot so disgusted with it that I burnt it. I spent no end of money on various preparations, and with the sole exception of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, none of them benefited me at all. About June last I had a pamphlet from Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. handed to me. and on reading it found a ease something like my own, so I resolved to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial. I sent for half-a-dozen boxes, and commenced taking them at the beginning of August, and took three boxes before feeling any benefit. However, from that time I felt a distinct improvement, until at last I was completely cured of complaints tint had troubled me very severely tor more than twenty years ; but to make eloubly sure, I have continued to take the Pills right up to the present, and most certainly would not bo without them even if they cost a£l a box. My cure is the more remarkable, because I was notable to take the Pills at all regularly, in fact everything was against the Pills, for frequently I only had very bad water to elrink, and was greatly exposed to change 3 from heat to cold, and the usual back country manner of living. Before taking Dr. Williams' Pills I was almost a skeleton, and my weight was only Sat. 51b., now I weigh lOst 61b. I think that speaks for itself. Lately my friends at Quorn have remarked how wonderfully well I am looking, and I tell them it is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills 1 have to thank for" it. I know that many friends of mine have been taking the Pills after seeing the wonders they have worked in me, It might interest you to know that I have given away no less than a dozen and ahalf boxes of these Pills."

Congratulating Mr Lampard upon his return lo good health our reporter withdrew.

These pills arc not like other medicine, and their effects are permanent. They act diicctly on the blood, and thus it is that they are so famous for the cure of anaemia and rheumatism, weak heart, scrofula, consumption, erysipelas, and to restore pale and sallow complexions to the glow of health. They are also a splendid nerve and spine tonic, and thus have cured many cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxy, neuralgia, St. Vitus' dance, and nervous headache. They are sold by chemists, and by Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., at 3s a box, or six for 15s 9d, but arc genuine only with full name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. See that your chemist does not substitute something jest as good when making your purchases. Ihe just as geod kind cost him less money, and he is looking oat for his pocket, not your health.
