DETECTIVE W. M. LUGG.
Compelled to Cross the Mountains on

the Journey.

From the Examiner, San Francisco, Cal.
-Four years ago, at the time of the
trouble between the United States and
Chill, as a 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 Mr.. Lugg left Chill he went
across the mountains into Argentine,
travelling on muleback.
Mr.. Lugg says that the trip is de-
llghtful one in point of beautiful
scenery and perfect weather, but many
people dislike to undertake it on &C.
count 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, ana 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.
II fell a victim to the injurious
qualities of the water" said Mr.. Lugg.
1T affected my kidneys to an alarming
degree. When l got over into Argen-
tine thought the trouble would grad
ually leave me, but instead of that it
grew more aggravated and l suffered
terribly from pains in the region of my
kidneys. | was en- route to Chicago
and l determined to reach my destina-
tion before the complaint should grow
so serious as to confine me to my bed.
Upon reaching Chicago at once con-
suited a 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. l began to have neuralgia
pains IN my head, my spine was affect
ed with shooting pains and l had no
control over the urinary organs. 1t
was next to impossible for me to get
any sleep. / lay awake many 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 l laughed at
him for daring to think that any patent
medicine could aid me when my physi.
clan had failed. took the pills, how
ever, to oblige my friend more than
for any faith had in them, and l was
treated to the most joyous surprise Of
my life when realized that was be-
ing relieved of my pains. First the
peculiar pains along my spine ceased,
and then my neuralgia trouble began
to grow less and finally left me entire.
ly. 1t took good while to improve
the condition of my kidneys, but after
had taken a number Of boxes of the
pills | knew taht they had done their
work successfully, for then l had re-
gained control of the urinary organs
and the action of my kidneys was
strong and steady.
"When l thought was out of all
danger l quit taking the pills. The
relief they had afforded was perma
nent, however, and have never since
felt a recurrence of the complaints.
hardly know how to praise Williams
Pink Pills as they should be praised.
They certainly are wonderful prepa'
ration. | have recommended them tc
number of my friends who were
suffering from kidney complaints, and
they have all been benefited by theil
use.
