To verify Mr. Quant's statement our re
porter few days ago, March Slst 1921
called on DR., Allen Starr at his office, No.
20 West Twenty-eighth ST., New York city.
DR.. Starr is horse physician of the Roose-
welt hospital, situated corntr of Ninth
avenue and Fifty-ninth street, In reply to
inquiry he said he remembered the case of
Mr.. QUAINT very well, and treated him some,
but that he was chiefly treated and under
the more especial care of DR.. Ware. He
said he regarded this case as he did all cases
of locomotor ataxia as incurable. In order
that our reporter might get copy OF the
history of the case Of Mr. QUAINT from the
hospital record he very courteously gave him
letter of which the following is copy:-
DR.. NJ. A. Starr, % West Forty-eighth
street, office hours, 8 to IL a. M, New York.
March 3lst 1897. Dear DR.. Vought; IL you
have any record of a locomotor ataxia by
name of QUAINT, who says he came to the
clinic 8 or years ago, No. 14,031, Of the o.
d. Dept, Roosevelt sent to me from Ware,
will you let the bearer know. III you have
no record send him to Roosevelt Hosp.
Yours, STARR.
BY means of this letter access to the rec
ords was permitted and transcript of the
f
as follows;
'No. 14,097 Admitted September 10th,
! 1885, Charles A. QUAINT, aged "a years. Born
| U. s. Married. Hoboken."
"History of the case;-Dyspepsa for past
four or five years. About IA months partial
loss of power and numbness in lower ex-
tremities. Girdling sensation about abdo-
men. November both 1889, not improved,
external strobismus of left eye and dilata-
ton of the left eye.) Some difficulty in pass
ing water at times; no headache but some
dizziness; alternate diarrhoea and constipa-
tion; partial ptosis past two weeks in left
| eye.
"Ord. r. F. Bi pep. and Soia."
These are the marked symptoms of n
severe case of locomotor ataxia. "And DR..
Starr said case with such marked symp-
toms could not be cured and QUAINT who was
receiving treatment in the out-patient de-
partment, was given up as incurable"
There never was u case recovered in the
world" said DR.. Starr. Ami then said:
"Dr. Ware can tell you more about the casa
as QUAINT was under his more personal treat
ment. l 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. 1872 West Ninety-third street,
New York He said ~ have very distinct
recollections of the QUAINT case. 1t was
very pronounced case. L treated him about
eight months. This was in the early sum
mer of 1890. 1 deemed him incurable, and
thought him dead before now. Imagine MY
surprise when | received a letter from him
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 recovery
THAT 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 a bad case and he was great sufferer"
Dir. Theodore h. Tutte, of 3l9 West
Eighteenth street, to whom our reporter is
indebted for assisting courtesies, said OF
locomotor ataXia: 81 have had several
cases OF this disease in the course of my
practice. l will not say that it is incurabe,
but | never knew of case to get well; but
will say it is not deemed durable by any
remedies known to the medical profession"
After this successful aud conirmatory in-
Saturday, April 2d 1892, visited St Peters
Hospital, in Albany, corner of Albany and
Ferry streets. He had a courteous reception
by Sister Mary Philomena, the sister
superior of st. Peters Hospital, and when
told of the object OF his visit, said she remem-
bered the case of poor Mr. QUAINT very dis
tnctly. Said she: ut was very distress
ing case and excited my sympathies much
Poor fellow, he couldn't be cured and had to
go home in a terrible condition of helpless
ness 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 14th, 1890, was
treated by DIR. Henry Hun, assisted by DR..
Van Derveer, who was then, 1890, at the
head of the hospital, and that his case being
deemed moi, possible OF cure, he left the
hospital and was taken to his home as he
supposed to die.
Such is the full history of this most re-
markable case OF successful recovery from
heretofore supposed incurable disease and
after all the doctors had given him up by
the simple use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. Truly it is an interesting
story of most miraculous cure of dreadful
disease by the simple use of this popular
remedy
A further investigation revealed the fact
that DR.. Williams Pink Pills are not patent
medicine in the sense in which that term is
generally understood, but are "a scientific
preparation successfully used in general
practice for many years before being offered
TO the public generally. They contain in a
condensed form all the eelements'necessary to
give new life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are an uu.
failing specific for such diseases as locomotor
ataxia partial paralysis, st. Nitus dance,
sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache the after effects of la grippe,
palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow
complexions that tired feeling resulting
from nervous prostration; all diseases
depending upon vitiated humors in the blood,
such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, exc.
They are also a specific for troubles peculiar
TO females, such as suppressions irreguari-
ties and all forms of weakness. They build
up the blood and restore the glow of health
to pale or sallow cheeks. In the case Of men
they effect a radical cure in alt cases arising
from mental worry, over-work or excesses OF
whatever nature. ,.
, On further inquiry the writer found that
these pills are manufactured by the Dr..
/, Williams Medicine Company, Brockviue,
Ontario, and Morristown, N. Y, and are
, sold in boxes never in loose form by the
. dozen or hundred) at 80 cents a box, or siX
boxes for s.. so, and may be had of all drug
!, gists or direct by mail from Dr.. Williams
l Medicine Company, from either address
/, The price at which these pills are sold makes
a course of treC tment comparatively ineX-
pensive as compared with other remedies or
a melical treatment.

ladies is so simple that it has excite'
