case that was SO wonderfully re-
that it demanded further ex-
PLANTATION. 1t is of sufficient import
ance to the News readers to report it
to them fully. 1t was so important
then that it attracted considerable at
tention at the time. The following is
the paragraph in question:
&C. B. Northrop, for twenty-cight
years one of the best known merchants
on Woodward avenue, who was sup
posed to be dying last spring Of loco
motor ataxia, or creeping paralysis,
has secured a new lease Of life and re-
turned to work at his store. The
disease has always been supposed to be
incurablc, but MIR. Northrop's condition
is greatly improved, and it looks now
as if the grave would be cheated of its
prey"
Since that time Nj. Northrop has
steadily improved, not only in looks,
but in condition, till he has regaincd
his old-tilne strength.
1t had been limited to the writer Of
this article, who was acquainted with
Mr.. Northrop, that this miraculous
change had been wrought by q very
simple remedy called DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. When
asked about it Mr.. Northrop fully vcri-
fed the statement, and not only so.bat
he had taken pains to inform any one
who was suffering in a similar manner
when he heard of any such case.
MI. Northrop was enthusiastic at the
result in his own case Of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. 1t was a remedy that lie
had heard of after lie hadtried every
thing he could hope to give him re-
lief. He had been in the care of the
best physicians who did all they could
to alleviate this terrible malady, but
without any avail. He had given up
hope, when a friend in L%ockport. N.
Y, wrote him of the case of a person
there who had been cured in similar
circumstances by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. The person
cured at Lockport had obtained his
information respecting DR.. Williams
Pink Pills from an article pub
lished in the Hamilton, Ont, Times.
The case was called 1.-The Hamilton
MIRACLE and told the story of a man
in that city who, after almost incredi-
BILE suffering, was pronounced by the
most eminent physicians to be incura-
ble and permanently disabled. he
had spent hundreds of dollars in all
sorts of treatment and appliances
only to be told in the end that there
was no hope for him, and that cure
was impossible. The person alluded
to (Mr. John Marshall of 25
Little William street, Hamilton, Ont J,
was q member of the Royal Temolars
of Temperance, and after having been
pronounced permanently disabled and
incurablc by the physicians, was paid
the 81, 900 disability insurance provided
by the order for its members in such
cases. For years Mr.. Marshall had been
utterly helpless, and was barely able
to drag himself around his house with
the aid Of crutci'es. His
agonies were almost unbearable
and his life was a burden to him, when
ut last relief came. Some months
after he had been paid the disability
claim he heard of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and wasinduced to try them. The
result was miraculous; almost from the
outset IN improvement was noticed, and
in a few months the man whom medi'
cal experts had said was incurable,
was going about the city healthier and
stronger than before. Mr.. Marshall
was so we'll known in Hamilton that
all the city newspapers wrote up his
wonderful recovery in detail, and il
was thus as before stated, that Mr..
Northrop came into possession of the
information that led to his equally re.
markable recovery. One could scarce
ly conceive a case more hopeless than
that of Mr.. Northrop His injury
came about in this way: One day near
~ four years ago. he stumbled and
fell the complete length of . steer
fight of stairs which were at the
rear of his store. Ills head and spine
were severely injured. He was picked
mp and taken to his home. Creeping
paralysis very soon developed itself,
and in spite of the most strenuous eff.
forts of friends and physicians the ter
rible affection fastened itself upon
him. For nearly two years he was
nothing to support his strength

be wheeled about in an iuvalid't
chair. He vas weak, pale and fast
sinking when his timely information
came that verbally snatched his life
from the jaws of death. Those, who
at that time saw a feeble old man
wheeled into his store on an invalid's
chair, would not recognized the man
now. so great is the change that DR..
Williams Pink Pills have wrought.
When Mr.. Northrop learned Of
the remedy that had cured
MIR. Marshall in Hamilton, and the
person in Lockport. he procured q sup
ply Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills through
Messrs. Bassett & L'Hommedieu. o.
Woodward avenue, and from the out
set found an improvement. He faith.
fully adhered to the use of the remedy
until now he is completely restored,
Mr., Northrop declares that there can be
no doubt as to Pink Pills being the cause
of his restoration to health, al all Other
I. remedies and. medical tf.2.m.nt left
him in q condition rapidly going from
bad to worse. until at last IT was de-
clared there was no hope for him and
he was pronounced incurable. He was
in this terrible condition when he be.
gan to use DR.. Willism's Pink Pills, and
they have restored him to health.
Mr.. Northrop was asked what was
claimed for. this wonderful remedy.
and replied that he understood the
