A GREAT TRIUMPH FOR CANA

furnished the basis or this information
"a case that was so wonderfully re-
markable that 1t. demanded furth r ok
PLANTATION. 1t Is of sufficient Importance
to the News readers to report 1t to
them fully 1t was so important then
that 1t attracted considerable attention
ut the time. The following Is the para
graph in question:
&C. b. Northrop, for twenty-eight
years one of the best known merchants
on Woodward avenue, who was supposed
to be dying last spring OF locomotor
ataxia, or creeping paralysis, has Sc
cured new lease of life and returned
to work at his store. The disease has
always been supposed to be incurable,
but Mr.. Northrop's condition is greatly
improved, and it looks now as II the
grave would be cheated of its prey"
Since that time Mr. Northrop has
steadily improved not only in looks but
in condition, till he has regained his old
time strength.
1t has been limited to the writer OF this
article, who was acquainted with Mr..
Northrop, that this miraculous change
had been wrought by very simple rem
edy 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
to inform any one who was suffering in a
similar manner when he heard of any
such case. Mr.. Northrop was enthusi-
astic at the result in his own case of DR..
Williams Pink Pills. 1t 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 alleviate this terrible malady, but
without any avail. He had given up
hope, when a friend in Lockport, n. Y,
wrote him of the case OF person
there who had been cured in similar cir
cumstances by DIR. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. The person cured at
Lockport had obtained his information
respecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills
from an article published In the Hamil-
ton, Ont, Times. The case was called
The Hamilton Miracle" and told the
story of q man In that city who,
after almost incredible suffering,
was pronounced by the most emil
nent physicians to be incurable and
permanently disabled. He had spent
hundred of dollars in all sorts of treat
ment and appliances only to be told in
the end that there was no hope for him,
and that cure was impossible. The per-
son alluded to (Mr. John Marshall, of %
Little William street, Hamilton, Ont. y
was a member of the Royal Templars Of
Temperance, and after having been pro-
bounced permanently disabled and in
durable by the physicians, was paid the
81 900 disability insurance provided by
the order for its members in such cases.
For years Mr.. Marshall had been utterly
helpless, and was barely able to drag
himself around his house with the aid Of
crutches. His agonies were almost un-
bearable and life was burden TO him,
when at last relief came. Some months
after he had been paid the disability
claim he heard Of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and was induced to try them. The
result was miraculous; almost from the
outset an improvement was noticed, and
in few months the man that medical
experts had said was incurable, was
going about the city healthier and
stronger than before. Mr.. Marshall
was so we'll known in Hamilton that all
the city newspapers wrote up his won
derful recovery in detail, and it was
thus, as before stated, that Mr.. Northrop
came into possession of the information
that led to his equally marvellous re-
covery. One could scarcely conceive a
case more hopeless than that of Mr..
Northrop. His injury came about in
this way: One day, nearly four years
ago, he stumbled and fell the complete
length OF a steep flight of stairs which
were at the rear of his store. His head
and spine were severely injured.
He was picked up and taken
to his home. Creeping paraly sis
very soon developed itself, and
in spite of the most strenuous efforts Of
friends and physicians the terrible
affection fastened itself upon him. For
nearly two years he was perfectly help
less. He could do nothing to support
his strength in the least effort. He had
t. be wheeled about in an invalid's
chair. He was weak, pale, and fast
sinking when this timely information
came that veritably snatched his life
from the jaws of death. Those, who at
that time saw feeble old man wheeled
into his store on an invalid's chair,
would not recognize the man now, so
great is the change that DR.. Williams
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 X 'Hommedieu, 80
Woodward avenue, and from the outset
found Improvement. He faithfully adj
hered to the use of the remedy until now
he is completely restored. Mr.. Northrop
declares that there can be no doubt as
to Pink Pills being the cause OF his res
toration to health. as all other remedies
and medical treatment left him in
condition rapidly going from bad to
worse, until at last 1t was declared there
was no hope for him and he was pro-
nounced incurable. He was in this ter
rible condition when he began to use
DR.. Williams 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 proprie-
tors claim IL TO be blood builder and
nerve restorer; supplying in condensed
form all the elements necessary to en-
rich the blood, restore shattered nerves
and drive out disease. It Is claimed by
the proprietors that Pink Pills will cure
paralysis, rheumatism, sciatica, palpita-
ton OF the heart. headache. and all dis
