indebted for assisting courtesies, said of
l0comotor ataXia: II have had several
cases OF this disease in the course OF mr
practice. l will not say that it is incurable
but never knew OF case to get we'll; but
| Will say 1t is not deemed durable by amp
remedies known TO the medical professions
After the successful and coniirmatory inc
yestigation IN New York, our reporter,
saturday APRIL :, 1892, visited ST. Peter.
Ferry streets. lie had courteous recep-
ton by Sister Mary fhilomena, the sister
superior of the hospital, and when

Such is tho full history of this most re-

A further Investigation revealed tho fact
that DR.. Williams Pink Pills are not
patent medicine in the sense In which that
term Is usually understood, but are sclen-
tine preparation successfully used In gem
ersl 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 rich
tered nerves. They are an un.
falling specific for such diseases as locomo-
tor ataxia, partial paralysis. st. yitus dance.
sciatica. neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
pitation OF the heart pale and sallow COM
plexions. that tired feeling resulting from
nervous pro.tration; all diseases depending
upon Initiated bumors In the blood. such as
scroftlla, chronic erysipelas etc. They are
also specific fer troubles peculiar to
females, such rs suppresslons, irregulari-
ties, and all forms of weakness. They build
up the blood and restore the glow OF health
TO pale or tallow checks. In tho case of
men they effect radical cure In all cases
arising from mental worry, oyer-work or
excuses OF whatever nature.
