is beyond doubt evident that his recovery
is wholly due TO the use Of these famous
pills which have been found to have made
such remarkable cures in this and other
cases.

porter his card of admission to Roosevelt
hospital, which is reproduced above In fur
ther confirmation of his statements.

Roosevelt hospital, situated corner OF Ninth

of Mr.. QUAINT very we'll and treated
him some but that lie was chiefly treated
and under the more especial care of Or.

did all cases of locomotor ataxia as incur
able In order that our reporter might get

"Ord r. F. Bi pep and soda"
These are the marked symptoms OF a se-

| was receiving treatment In the out patient
| department., was given up as 1ncurable."
| "There never was case recovered In the
| world" said DIR. Starr. And then said: "Dr.
| Ware can tell you more about the case as
| QUAINT was under his more personal treat
ment. 1 am surprised" !" he said, that the
man is alive, as thought he must be dead
| long ago"
Our reporter found DR.. Edward Ware at
his office, No. l62 West Ninety third street,
| New York He said: II have very distinct
recollections of the QUAINT case. 1t was
very pronounced case. treated him about
! eight months. This was in the early sum-
| mer of 1890 / deemed him incurable, and
| thought him dead before now. Imagine my
| surprise when | received letter from MIN
| about two weeks ago telling me that he was
alive was getting well and expected soon
| to be fully recovered"
! "What do you think, doctor, was the
cause of his recoveryF'
'sThat is more than / know QUAINT says
| he has been taking some sort OF pills and
that they have cured him. At all events,
am glad the poor fellow is getting well, for
| his was q bad case and he was great suf
| ferer"
| DIR. Theodore r. Tuttle, No. 319 West
| Eighteenth street, to whom our reporter Is
| indebted for assisting conrtesies, said of To-
| comotor ataxia: 81 have had several cases
| of this disease in the course Of my practice.
| will not say that 1t is incurable, but
never knew of a case to get well; but will
say it is not deemed durable by any
remedies known to the medical profession. I"
| After this successful and confrmatory 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 a courteous recep-
ton by Sister Mary Philomena, the sister
superior of st. Peters hospital, and when
| told the object of his visit, said she remem-
bered the case OF poor Mr.. QUAINT very dis
| tinctly Said she: at was very dis
/ tressing case and excited my sympathies
much. Poor fellow he couldn't be cured
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. Quant entered the hospital
| March 14th, 1890, was treated by DR.. Henry
| Hun assisted by DIR. Van Derveer, who was
then, 1890, at the head of the hospital, and
| that his case being deemed not possible Of
cure, he left the hospital and was taken to
| his home, us lie supposed to die.
Such is the full history of this most re-
| marbable case of successful recovery from
| a heretofore supposed incurabe disease,
| and after all the doctors had given him up,
| by the simple use of Dr. Williams Pink
esting story Of a most miraculous cure of a
dreadful disease by the simple use of this
| popular remedy.
A further investigation revealed the fact
that DR. Williams Pink Pills are not pat
| ent medicine in the sense in which that
term is usually understood, but are scien-
titic preparation successfully used in. gen.
eral practice for many years before being
offered to the public generally. They con-
| tain in a condensed form all the elements
/ necessary 10 give new lllc ana RICHNESS u
| 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 compilations, that tired
! feeling resulting from nervous prostration; ;
all diseases depending upon vitiated hui
mors In the blood, such as scrofula, chronic
erysipelas, etc. They are also specific foI
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 sallow
cheeks. In the case of men they effect q
radical cure in all cases arising from men,
| tai worry, overwork or excesses Of what
| ever nature.
On further inquiry the writer found that
these pills are manufactured by the DIR.
| Williams Medicine Company, Breckville,
Ontario, and Morristown, N. Y, and are
sold in boxes never in loose form by the
| dozen or huRtlredl at so cents a box. or six
| boxes for $50, and may be had of all drug
| gists or direct by mail from DIR. Williams
Medicine Company, from either address.
| The price at which these pills are sold
makes course of treatment comparatively
inexpensive as compared with other repl>
