remarkable achievement of Canadian |
medical discovery, which has already, in its
own country, won great and enduring
fame. AT this added triumph there is no
doubt the fellow countrymen of the pro-
prictors will rejoice, us it sheds lustre on
Canadian science. The story is told by the
News rs follows:
The following paragraph, which appeared
In the News short time ago, furnished the
basis OF this information--a case that was
so wonderfully remarkable that 1t demand
ed further explanation. 1t is of suffi
Importance to the News readers to report
1t to them fully. 1t was so important then
that IT attracted considerable attention at
the time. The following is the paragraph in
question::
&C. b. Northrop, for 2S years one Of the
best known merchants on Woodward av-
enue, who was supposed to be dying last
spring of locomotor ataxia, or creeping par
alysis, has secured "a new lease of life and
returned to work at his store. The disease
has always been supposed to he incurabie,
but Mr.. Northrop's condition is greatly i'm
proved, and it looks now Us il the grave
would be cheated Of its prey"
Since that time Mr. Northrop has steadily
improved not only in looks, but in condi-
ton, till he has regained his old time
strength.
1t has been hinted to the writer of this
article, who was acquainted with Mr..
Northrop, that this miraculous change had
been wrought by n very simple remedy
called DR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. When asked about it Mr.. Northrop
fully verified the statement, and not only
so, but he had taken pains toinform anyone
who was suffering in u similar manner
when he heard Of any such case. Mr.. Nor
throp was enthusiastic ut the result in his
own case of DR.. Williams Pink Pills II
was remedy that he had heard of after he
had tried everything he could hope to give
him relief. He had been in the care OF the
best physicians who did all they could to al
leviate this terrible malady, but without
apy avail He had given up hope when
friend in Lockport, n. Y wrote him of the
case of person there who had been cured
in similar circumstances by DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. The person
cured at Lockport had obtained his infor-
nation respecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills
from an article published In the Hamilton,
Ont, Times. The case was called ''rhe
Hamilton Miracle and told the story Of a
man in that city who, after almost incred-
ible suffering, was pronounced by the most
eminent hysicians to be incurable and per.
manently disabled. He had spent hundreds
of dollars in all sorts of treatment and ap.
plances only to be told in the end that
there was no hope for him, and that euro
was Impossible. The person alluded to
(Mr. John Marshall, of % Little William
St, Hamilton, Ont9 was member of the
4 Royal Templars of Temperance, and after
having been pronounced permanently dis.
abied and incurabe by the physicians, was
! paid the 81 600 disability insurance provided
by the order for its members in such cases.
| For years Mr.. Marshall had been utterly
4 helpless, and WAS barely able to drag him.
sell around his house with the aid of crutch-
es. His agonies were almost uubearable
and life was burden to him, when ut last
relief came Some months after he had
4 been paid the disability claim he heard Of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and was induced to
try them The result was miraculous; al-
most from the outset an improvement was
noticed, and in few months the man
whom medical experts had said was incur
able, was going about the city healthier and
4 stronger thar before. Mr.. Marshall was
well known In Hamilton that all the city
newspapers wrote up his wonderful recov-
cry In detail, and it WAS thus before
stated, that Mr. Northrop came into
possession of the Information that
led to his equally marvellous recov-
cry. One could scarcely conceive a
case more hopeless than that of MIR. Nor
throp. His injury came about in this way:
One day nearly four years ago, he stum-
bled and fell the complete length of n steep
flight of stairs which were at the rear of
his store. His head and spine were severe
ly injured. He was picked up and taken to
his home. Creeping paralysis very soon de
yeloped itself, and in spite of the most
strenuous efforts of friends and physicians
the terrible affiiction fastened itself upon
him. For nearly two years he was perfect
ly helpless. He could do nothing to sup
port his strength in the least effort. He
had to be wheeled about in an invalid's
chair. He was weak, pale aud fast sinking &
when his timely information came that ver-
itably snatched his life from the Jaws OF
death Those, who at that time saw a fee
BILE old man wheeled into his store on an in
valid's chair, would not recognize the man
now, great is the change that Dir. vii
lia:ns' Pink Pills have wrought. When Mr
Northrop learned of the remedy that had
cured Mr.. Marshall in Hamilton, and the
person IN Lockport. he procured a supply
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills through Messrs
Bassett a. L'Hommedeu, a5 Woodward
avenue, and from the outset found an i'm
proyement. He faithfully adhered to the
use of the remedy nitil now he is com
pletely restored. Mr.. Northrop declares
TINT there can be no doubt as to Pink Pills
being the cause OF his restoration to health
as all other remedies and medical treatment
left him in condition rapidly going from
bad to worse, until at last it was declared
there was no hope for him and he WAS pro
nounced incurable He was in this terribl,
condition when he began to use Dr.. VII
liams' 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 propretors claim

aments necessary to enrich the blood, restor
shattered nerves and drive out disease.
