From the orillia Newsletter.
The following letter has been for
varded Us by the Coldwater, Canada,
correspondent OF the Newsletter,
which We have great pleasure in pub
fishing:
CoIdWater, Sept 18th, 1896.
\ few weeks ago I became very IN
well from an attack Of Seiatica, and re-
membering that e while ago q we'll
known friend OF mine, Mr.. c. 7. Hop
son, Of Fesserton, few miles from
here. had been great sufferer from
this painful complaint, I thought it
would be well to consult that gentle
man as 10 the medicine he gives credit
10 for his relief and cure, as I was
aware that he was now well and hearty
and had ever since been in steady work
among Iumber-his regular business.
he gave me the information required
and wrote out the following testimonial
which he desires TO have published in
any way think proper, hoping that
it viii meet the eye OF many sufferers
like myself who are anxious TO get re-
lief. l therefore forward it to you 10
publish:
Fesserton, Sept. 18th, 1886.
II is with the greatest pleasure that
1 testify TO the marvellous benefit and
cure that DR.. Williams Pink Pills ef-
fected in my case. In the year 1892 I
was taken very bad with sciatica.
was treated at different times by two
doctors but dispensed with their ser
vices as l found 1 was not getting the
hoped for relief. I then tried, different
remedies advertised as a cure for seia-
tica. but with no better result. Then /
tried strongly recommended electrical
appliances, but still TO no purpose
did not improve any and the pain was
excruciating, and 1 began to lose all
hope Of ever getting better. 1 could
not sit down or move about without
suffering intense pain, and the only re-
lief l could get was when / lay down
with ny legs stretched straight out
and then the pain was somewhat less.
l was in this position one day when !
picked up q newspaper lying by my
siue and there l read of a man cured
Of seiatica by taking DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. Always having but little
faith in proprietary medicines, and in
view Of the experience l had already
had, would not have tried them but
fo- the fact that my wife insisted On
going at once and procuring some,
She got q box and persuaded me to
take them. BY the time I had finished
the box I believe I felt better, so
kept On taking the pills and by the
time I had taken six boxes was en-
tirely cured 1 had been laid up for
four months before taking the Pink
Pills. and 1 shall continue to take them
occasionally as l know them to be an
excellent medicine I shall never cease
recommending them Yours truly,
Charles T. Hopson-"
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills are tonic

strengthening the nerves, thus reach
ing the root OF the disease and driving

doubt the greatest medicine Of the 18th
