After this successful and confirmatory
investigation in New York. reporter,
Saturday, April ., 1892, visited st. Peters
hospital, i'll Albany, corner of Albany and
Ferry streets. He had a courteous reccp-
ton by Sister Mary phlomcna, the sister
superior Of st. Icter's hospital, and when
told the object of his visit. said she rcmem-
tinctly. Said She: 1T was a very dis
tressing case aud excited my sympathies
much. Poor fellow he couldn't be cured
and had to go home in a terrible condition
of heipIessness 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
II, 1890 was treated by DR.. Henry Hun,
assisted l.y DR.. Van Dcrveer, who was then,
1890 at the head Of the hospital and that

he left the hospital and WAS taken to his
home, as be supposed to die.
Such is the full history of this most re-
ma rkabe ease Of successful recovery from
heretofore supposed IcuTanle disease, ana
after all the doctors had given him up, by
the simple use of DR. Williams's Fink Pills
for Pale People. Truly it is an interesting
story of a most miraculous cure of Il dread
ful disease by the use of this popular rene
dy.
further invest: cation revealed the fact
that DR.. Williams Pink Pills are not a
patent medicine i'll the sense in which that
term is usually understood, but are sci
eutitic preparation successfully used In gem
eral practice for many years before being
offered to the public generally. They CON
tain in condensed form all the clements
necessary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves
They are an unfailing specific for such dis
eases of locomotor ataxa partial paralysis,

eases depending upon vitiated humors in
the blood, such as scrofula, chronic crySip-
elias, etc. They are also a specific for
troubles peculiar to females. such as sup
Dressons, irregularities, and all forms of
weakness They build UP the blood and re-
store the glow of health to pale or sallow
checks, In the case of men they effect q
radical cure in all cases arising from men
