REMARKABLE INCIDENT AT A GUARDIANS' MEETING.

An interesting anl, wo venture to think, somewhat unusual incident lately occuvred at the moating of the Bishop's Storlford Poor Law Guardians (says the Glasgow Herald, of December 15, 1898.) A working man appeared before the Board with reforence to some arrears of maintenance for his father's support, tbo latter being in the County Lunatic Asylum. The man said he was quito unable to pay. He was employed at 13s. per week, but had been himself laid up with illness. Out of this 135., 9s. went for lodgings and 2s 9d a week for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Some of the Guardians suggested that he might have dispensed with these pills, but the man ■would not hear of this, saying that if he had adapted such advice he would not have been able to follow his employment at all. The guardian? were at first disinclined to accopt this testimony of the value of the pills, but one of thoir own number spoke very decidedly in their favour, and testified to the great benefits he had himself derived from them. The Guardian in question met with a serious accident some time ago, and it was while recovering that he had tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, with what he described as most beneficial results.

The above item appeared word for word in the paper mentioned, amongst the ordinary reading matter. It is merely an unconsoions but sterling tribute to the extraordinary value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Another very strong tribute comes from Miss Annie Barnard, who is residing in Adelaide street, near the Central Railway Station, Brisbane, and who is well known as an artistic and fashionable dressmaker, being employed at one of tho loading dressmaking establishments in Brisbane.

" About three years ago," said Mise Barnard, "I suffered greatly from indigestion. I lived then at Ipswich. For about twelve months I suffeied much inconvenience and pain. I took no medicine whatever for it. I then went to Brisbane, and procured employment at the firm I am working for at present. But when I first arrived in the city, I found that the change did me no good, and my complaint inconvenienced mo so much that I had to seek medical advice. I visited a doctor and he prescribed for me. The medicine did not do me muoh good. I began to have terrible pains. After I partook of the slightest morsel of food, I would have severe pains in my chest, together with swellings. I got so indifferent to food that I barely tasted it, and consequently my general health was very much impaired. I became very thin, and had to go away for a change. I had to entirely give up my employment, no remedies seemingly relieving me. One of my workmates at last advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, hut I only laughed. However, when she had told me that they had cured her of indigestion, I thought I would give them a trial; so I procured a few boxes at Mr Marshall's, and began taking them. Very soon a change for the better could be noticed. My friend and adviser was very solicitous to know the result, and four weeks after taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I had to confess to her that I felt a vast improvement. I took altogether nine boxes, and now I fell perfectly well. lam able to eat a fairly good meal, and walk long distances without feeling much fatigued. I attribute this change to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I have induced many to give them a trial, with gratifying results. The reason I relate these facts and authorished their publication, is simply out of gratitude. Neither am I ashamed to publish my testimonial, as I consider it would be selfish and an injustice to others who suffered as I did." Moral : To avoid all heat effects, use Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills. They euro an»mia (bkfodlessness), debility, biliousness, slaeplewsness, headaches, indigestion kidney and liver troubles, gravel, obronic diarrhcea, pimples, vital weaknesses, all skin complaints, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, etc. Chemists and storekeepers all over the colonies sell them —price 3s. per box, six boxes for 16s 6d. Get the genuine, with full name (all seven words) —Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People—printed in red on the white outside package of each box. Imitations are dangerous. If in doubt, enclose the price in postal note or stamps, and send direct to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z. Remember that imitations are imitations in appearance only, and never cured anyone.
