precious is the panacea that cures
when hope is gone and medical advice
pronOunces the death sentence-'incur-
able How terrible it is to think of
leaving this sweet life,before the allotted
years of mans time here on earth are
spent" Thus spoke ]. B. White, of
1901 Third street n. E., last night to a
journal reporter. Mr.. White has been
much talked about of late, and the fol-
lowing conversation explains why:
II am native of Shediac. New Bruins
wick, and of French descent. l have
Deen III Minneapolis for many years. l
am now go years old. l fell from d
building two years ago and broke my
thigh, besides njuring myself inter-
nally. The doctors could do nothing
for me but let the bones grow together
as best they could. When | was able to
walk on crutches l came near dying
from the complication of troubles that
had set in after the fall. For one year
and half L walked OH crutches, striv-
Ing in vain to find some relief from the
misery felt night and day. The worst
part of my Affections was that could
not eat anything. If | could have taken
nourlshment and kept it down l could
have stood the pain better. l had four
doctors, and kept taking all sorts of
medicines. l had to stop all of them or
would have been dead man. l have
enough bottles left to start a drug
store. l would he troubled so with
headaches. and my hips would pain me

was nothing to me but skin and bone.
Last summer l felt as if was nearly
dead. My kidneys then began to
bother me. got so l could not sleep
only at intervals. Finally gave up in
despair. One day was sitting out on
the porch. 1t was beautiful, sunny
day. The singing of birds and the OdOr
of flowers set me to thinking of my
childhood days. From that my thoughts
reverted to the little French weekly
paper, LIE Moniteur Acadien, that we
got, and thought would like to read
it and see how things were at my old
home. L told my wife to give me the
last number. She brought me the one
that came that morning. The first thing
saw was long article about the mi
raculous cure of cripple. [ read on
and on, becoming more interested than
ever. The patient described in the arti-
Gle said that DIR. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People cured him and they
would cure others. The story aroused
my interest and / induced my druggist
to send for them. did not expect re-
lief right away, but soon they made the
headache pass away. After taking
them some days l could eat. People
laughed at me when began to take the
pills, telling me was taking so much
candy. But the day l threw away the
crutches they thought different. l am
now we'll and hearty as young man of
25."
At this juncture his married daugh-
ter, Mrs. n. White, came into the store.
There" said he, lis another case. She
has tried them, too" The reporter
thought it would be good idea to speak
of her case, also, since it was wom-
ans. Mrs. White married a man of the
same name as her father, so this ac-
counts Tor the same name.
The doctors" she said, told me |

August Grotefend, who keeps the
Germanla Drug Store, at 1011 Main ST.,
n. E., corroDorated what MIR. White
had said above in regard to his condi-
ton, saying: II have sold great many
since these cures. Some of the lumber
men going in the woods have taken
half-dozen box lots of these pills with
them. They certainly have done a
wonderful lot of good, and should have
the entire credit of the cures"
On inquiry the journal reporter found
that these pills are now on sale at the
various wholesale drug houses of Min
neapoliS and st. Paul, and are meeting
with good sale, but not as fast as they
will sell as soon as their merit is fully
known. He also found that they were
manufactured by DR.. Williams Medi-
cine Company, Schenectady, n. Y, and
BrOckville, Ont, and the pills are sold
in boxes (never in bulk by the hundred)
at SO cents box, or six boxes for 81. so.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are perfect
blood builder and nerve reStorer, curing
such diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia,
partial paralysis, lOcomOtor ataXia, st.
Vitus' da ice, nervous headache, nervous
prostraLlon and the tired feeling there
from, the after effects of la grippe, in
fluenZa and severe colds, diseases de-
pending on humors in the blood, such
as screfnla, chronic erysipelas, etc.
Pink Pills give healthy glow to pale
and sallow compilations, and are a spe-
cific for the troubles peculiar to the fe-
male system; in men they effect radi-
cal cure in all cases arising from mental
worry, overwork or eXceSSes of any
nature.
