The Progress., 1894-01-20

(AH5urn, ". T., Ba,'etin.)
1t is on record that upon chilly
April day, few years ago, an eight
yearold boy fell into the East river at
the foot of East Eighth Street, New
York, aud when all efforts to rescue
him had failed, Eugene DOnnelly, at
risk of his own life, plunged into the
water and, when himself nearly ex-
hausted, saved the boy from drowning.
1t was humane and and self-sacrific-
ing deed, and received deserved COM
mendation in all the newspapers.
Edward Donnelly was then and is now
a resident of New York City, living al
the last Side House, Seventy-sixth
st. and Z. R.. but his wife was Amanda
Grantman, of Auburn, and sister Mrs.
Samuel d. Cory, of No. Il Moravia
ST., which gave local interest to the
incident.
Mr.. Donnelly said: al was born in
Albany n. Y. and am AZ years old.
The greatest portion of my life | have
lived in New York City. l was gen.
eral foreman there of the F. A. Mulgrew
Saw Mills, foot of Eighth Street, on
the East river. 1t was on the 29th OF
April, 1889, that the boy fell into the
river and l rescued him from drown
ing, but in saving his life contracted
a disease which nearly cost me my
own.
You see when | saved the boy !
was in the water so long that l was
taken with a deathly chill, and soon
became so stitfened up and weak that
| could neither work nor walk. For
some time | was under treatment OF
DR.. George Mcdonald, who said | had
LocomotOr Ataxia. He finally said he
could do nothing for me.
when the disease first came upon
me the numbness began in my heels,
and pretty soon the whole of both my
feet became affected. There was a cold
feeling across the small of my back and
downwards, and a sense of soreness
and a tight pressure on the chest.
The numbness gradually extended up
both my legs and into the lower part OF
my body. felt that death was creep
ing up to my vitals. l was still taking
the medicine cit was Iodide ofPotas-
sum-" said mis- wife), and was being
rubbed and having plasters put all over
my body. but with no benefit.
Il sent to the Chas. II. Sagar Com
pany, the popular Auburn druggists
and chemists at 100 and III Genesee
St., and got three boxes of the Pink
Pills and began taking them at once.
In three weeks time was soimproved
that from being helpless l was able to
help myself and to get up and go to
work. and to walk every day from No.
"a Walnut ST., where | then lived, to
Osborne's New Twine Factory. Sey-
mour and Cottage Streets-more than
q mile-where l was then employed,
but all the while l was taking Pink
Pills.
Then DR.. Patchen, of Wisconsin,
uncle of my wife, and who was here on
. visit, began to poo-hoo at me for TAX
ing Pink Pills, and finally persuaded
me to stop taking them and to let him
treat me. When he returned to the
West he left a prescription with DR..
Hyatt, ofAuburn, who also treated me.
But their treatment did me no good,
and after a while the old trouble re-
turned and was getting bad again.
Then | began to take Pink Pills; have
taken them ever since, am taking
them now; have taken in all nearly 20
boxes at an entire cost of less than
$1,000 (my other treatment cost me
pile OF money, and again / am well
and able to work.
"If was able l would at my own
expense publish the virtues of DR..
Williams Pink Pills to the whole
world and especially in New York
City, where / am much better known
than am here"
An analysis Of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills shows that they contain, in a con-
densed form, all the elements neces-
sary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
They are an unfailing specific for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatics,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous head
sehe, the after affect of la grippe, pal
pitation of the heart, pale and sallow
all forms of weakness,
either in male or female, and all dis
eases depending on vitiated humors in
the blood. Pink Pills are sold by all
dealers or will be sent post paid on re-
ceipt OF price, go cents box, or 6 .
boxes for 81. .50-they are never sold
IN bulk or by the 1907 by addressing
DR.. Williams Medicine Company,
