Dr.. Theodore r. Tuttle, No. $40 West
Eighteenth street, to whom our reporter is
indebted for assisting courtesies, said of To-
comotor ataXia: Il have had several cases,
OF this disease in tue course of my practice.
/ will not say that it is incurable, but
never knew of n case to get well; but will
say il is not deemed durable by any
remedies known to the medical profession.
After this successful and coniirlnatory in
| vestigation in New York, our reporter, Sat-
urday April 2nd, 1892, visited st. Peters,
| hospital, in Albany, corner of Albany and
| Ferry streets. He had courteous recep-
| ton by Sister Mary Philomena, the sister
superior of st. Peters hospital, and when
told the object of his visit, said she rcmem-
| bered the case of poor Mr.. QUAINT very dis
tinctly. Said she: "It was IL very dis
tressing case and excited my sympathies
much. Poor fellow he couldn't be cared
and had to go home in terrible condition
OF helplessness and suffering" The house
physician, on consulting the records Of st.
Peters hospital, said he found only that
Charles A. QUAINT entered the hospital
| March 18th, 1890 was treated by Dr. Henry

that his case being deemed not possible of
cure, he left the hospital and was taken to

Such is the full history of this most re-
markable case of successful recovery from
a heretofore supposed ncurable disease,
and after all the doctors had given him up,
by the simple use OF DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. Truly it is an inter-
esting story of q most miraculous cure of q
dreadful disease by the simple use of this
| popular remedy.
further investigation revealed the facs
that DIR. Williams Pink Pills are not a pat
ent medicine in the sense in which that
term Is usually understood, but are n scien-
titic preparation successfully useu in gen
eral practice for many years before being
offered to the public generally. They con-
tain in condensed form all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness to
the blood, and restore shattered nerves.
They are an unfailing specific for such dis
eases as locomotor ataxia, partial paraly-
sis, st. Vitus dance, Sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, the after
effects of lagrippe, palpitation of the heart,
pale and sallow complexions, that tired
feeling resulting from nervous prostration
all diseases depending upon vitiated hu-
uOTs III lllS DlOOu, buCn us SCiOIuiil, cHCOnlC
erysipelaS, etc. They are also o specific for
troubles peculiar to females, such as sup
pressions, Irregularities, and all forms OF
weakness. They build up the blood and re-
store the glow of health to pale or saIloW
cheeks. In the case OF men they effect 8
radical cure in all cases arising from men
tai worry, overWorlS or eXoesses of what
ever nature.
On further inquiry the writer found that
these pills are manufactured by the DR..
Williams Medicine Company Brockvillo,
Ontario, and Morristown, N, Y, and ara
sold in boxes (never in loose form by the
dozen or hundred at so cents Il box, or six
boxes for $3.50, and may be had of all drug.

Medicine Company, from either address.
The price mt which these pills are sold
makes course of treatment comparatively
inexpensive as compared with other reno,
dies or medical treatment.
