with a paroxism of pain and would
fall unconscious to the ground.
During all this time l had con-
slant attendance of medical men, but
their remedies were unavailing. All
they could do was to try to build up
my system by the use of tonics. In
the fall of 1889 and spring of 1890 l
again suffered intensely severe at
taCkS, and at last my medical attend
ant, as last resort, ordered me to
the Toronto General Hospital. l en-
tered the Hospital on June 10Th, 1890,
and remained there until Sept. 20 Of
the same year. But notwithstand-
ing all the care and attention be-
slowed upon me while in this insti-
tuition, no Improvement was
noticeable in my condition. After
using almost every available remedy
the hospital doctors--of whom there
were about dozen-came to the con-
clusion that my case was incurable,
and l was sent away with the I'm

September 1890 to the end of Jan
uary 1891, went to the hospital
ionce a week for examination and
treatment. At this stage l became
suddenly worse, and once more
gained admission to the hospital,
where lay in a miserable suffering
condition for two months or more.
In the spring of 1891 l returned to
Oakville, and made an attempt to do
something toward my own support.
l was given light work in the basket
factory, but had to be conveyed to
and from my place of labor in bug
gy and carried from the rig to a ia
bic in the works on which / sat and
performed my work. In August,
1891, was again stricken down, and
remained in an utterly helpless con-
dition until January 1892. At this
time Mr.. James, a local druggist,
strongly urged me to try DR.. Will

was prejudiced against proprietary
medicines as had spent nearly all
possessed, on, numerous highly recon-
mended so-called remedies. l had
taken into my system large quanti-
ties of different family medicines. l
had exhausted the list of Hniments.
but all in vain, and was therefore
reluctant to take Mr.. James advice,
l, however saw strong testimonials
as to the value of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills as a blood builder and nerve
tonic, and thinking if l only could
get my blood in better condition my
general state of health might be inn
proved, resolved to give Pink Pills
a trial. With the courage born of
despair bought box, but there was
no noticeable improvement, and l
thought this was like the other rem
edies I had used But urged on by
friends continued taking Pink Pills
and after using seven boxes was re-
wardcd by noticing decided change
for the better. My appetite returned,
my spirits began to rise and had
little freer use of my muscles and
limbs, the old troublesome swelling
subsiding. l continued the remedy
until had used twenty-five boxes
when left off. BY this time 1 had
taken on considerable flesh, and
weighed as much as 100 pounds. This
was a gain of 60 pounds in a few
weeks. My joints assumed their
normal size, my muscles became
firmer, and in fact 1 was a new man.
BY April I was able to go to work in
the basket factory, and now l can

so long. Many time I prayed for
death to release me from my suffer
ings, but now that is all gone and l

fered agony for years. Ihave given
you brief outline of my sufferings,
but from what have told you can
guess the depth of my gratitude for
the great remedy which has restored
me to health and strength.
Wishing to substantiate the truth
of Mr.. Condor's remarkable story the
Empire representative called upon
Mr.. f. w. James, the Oakville drug
gist referred to above. Mr.. James
fully corroberated the statements of
Mr.. Condor. When the latter had
first taken DR.. Williams Pink Pills
he was a mere skelton--a wreck of
humanity. The people of the town
had long given him up for as good
as dead, and would hardly believe
the mans recovery until they saw
him themselves. The fame of this
cure is now spread Throughout the
section and the result is an enormous
sale of Pink Pills. 81 sell a-dozen-
and-a-half boxes of Pink Pills every
day. said Mr.. James, "and this is re-
markable in town the size of Oak
willie. And better still they give
perfect satisfaction. Mr.. James re-
called numerous instances of re-
markable cures after other remedies
had failed. Mr.. John Robertson,
who lives midway between Oakville
and Milton, who had been troubled
with asthma and bronchitis for a.
bout is years, has been cured by the
use Of Pink Pills, and this after ply
sicians had told him there was no
use doctoring further. Mr.. Robertson
