Throughout Canada, from the western
of Ontario to the Atlantic Ocean,
there is no name more widely known in tenn
perance and evangelistic work than that of the
Rev. w. A Dunnett. Mr.. Dunnett has been
the Grand e-Councillor of Ontario and
Quebec in the Royal Templars, and SO popular
is he among the members of the order that in
Montreal there is Royal Templars council
named "Dunnett Council' in his honor. For
more than ten years Mr.. Dunnett has been go
ing from place to place pursuing his good
work, sometimes assisting resident ministers,
sometimes conducting a series of gospel tenn
perance meetings independently, but always
laboring for the good of his fellows. While
in Smiths Falls few months ago in connection
with his work he dropped into the Record office
for little visit with the editor. During the
conversation the Record ventured to remark
that his duties entailed an enormous amount of
hard work. To this Mr.. Dunnett assented, but
added that in his present physical condition
he was equal to any amount of hard work
But it was not always SO, he said, and then
he gave the writer the following little per-
sonal history with permission to make II
public. He said that for the past thirteen
years he had been greatly troubled with
pain in the region of his heart, from which
he was unable to get any relief. At times il
was q dull, heavy pain, at others sharp and
severe. Oftentimes it rendered him uni
for his engagements, and at all times i
made it difficult to move. His trouble wa
always visible to the public and frequentl.
when conducting service he would give ou
and doctors had to be called in to atten'
him. 4, This occurred to him in the Yong
Street Church, Toronto; the Baptist Church

Church, at Manchester, N. I'll. Five doctors
had arrived and were in attendance before
he regained consciousness. In all these cities
and towns the newspapers freely mentioned
his affliction at the time. Mr.. Dunnett said
he had consulted many physicians, though he
said, to be entirely fair, he had never been any
great length of time under treatment by any
one doctor because of his itinerant mode of
life. In the early part of the summer OF 1896,
while in Brockville assisting the pastor of the
Wall Street Methodist Church in evangelistic
services he was speaking of his trouble to a
friend who urged him to try DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, and next day presented him with a
dozen boxes. "I took the pills." said Mr.
Dunnett. land l declare to you am well

demurred, because, as he put it, 9 am almost
