 Four years ago, at the time of the trouble between the United States and Chih, as result of the killing of the sailors of the U. s. s. Baltimore, in the streets of Chilian city, many Americans were obliged to leave the country for safety. Among them was W. NJ. Lugg, the private detective and collector, whose office is in the Crocker Building, San Francisco, Cal.
 When MT. Lugg left Chilli he went across the mountains into Argentine, travelling on muleback.
 Mir. Lugg says that the trip is 8 de- lightful one in point of beautiful scen- cry and perfect weather, but many peo- pie dislike to undertake it OH account of the unhealthful stagnant water which they are compelled to drink along the way. Many persons have been stricken down with disease from having drank of it, and in number of cases the attacks have proven fatal. The native Chilians drink the water without injury to their systems but it has bad effect upon those who are not used to it.
 1T fell 8 victim to the injurious qualities of the water" said Mir. Lugg. ''It affected my kidneys to an alarm ing degree. When I got over into Argentine thought the trouble would gradually leave me, but instead of that it grew more aggravated and I suffered terribly from pains in the region of my kidneys. was en route to Chicago and determined to reach my destina- tion before the complaint should grow so serious as to confine me to my bed. Upon reaching Chicago I at once consulted physician, who told me my kidneys had been affected by drinking polluted water. He treated me for some time for that complaint, but l grew steadily worse and new ailments were added to my already serious con- dition. began to have neuralgia pains in my head, my spine was affected with shooting pains and had no control over the urinary organs. It was next to impossible for me to get any sleep. lay awake many a night suffering the most intense pains, and the physician unable to relieve them.
 ''But relief came at last. One day one of my friends came to my room and handed me box of Williams Pink Pills. Of course laughd at him for daring to think that any patent medi- cine could aid me when my physician had failed. took the pills, however, to oblige my friend more than for any faith had in them, and 1 was treated to the most joyous surprise of my life when realized that I was being re- lieved of my pains. First tho peculiar pains along my spine ceased, and then my neuralgia trouble began to grow less and finally left me entirely. It took good while to improve the condition of my kidneys, but after had taken number of boxes of the pills I knew that they had done their work success fully, for then had regained control of the urinary organs and the action of my kidneys was strong and steady.
 'When thought was out of all danger quit taking the pills. The relief they had afforded was perma- nent, however, and have never since felt recurrence of the complaints. l hardly know how to praise Williams Pink Pills as they should be praised. They certainly are wonderful prepa- ration. I have recommended them to number of my friends who were suffering from kidney complaints. and they have all been benefited by their use."
