WILLIAMS, PINI{ PILLS SAVED ITER LIFE—ADVICE TO • PARENTS. From the reins News•Reeor,l Mr, C. M. Post, fruit and confect finery dealer, St, Andrew street, Fergus, last week related to a representative of the News -Record the sad story of the terrible suffering and sickness of his little daughter Ella, his only child now a strong and healthy little maiden of ten years of age. At the time of the ehilds illness iL Post was a resident of Hamilton. IIis story is substantially as follows: —"My daughter has been very delicate from childhood until about three years ago, and the money it colt me for doctor bills made me poor as it was seldom she was without a doctor's care and at tune we have had as many as three doctors in attendance and hope of saving her despaired of. The doctors succeeded in keeping her ,alive, but she was gradually growing worse and we all thought she was going to die. Our regular physician had given up hope of saving her life and remarked if it were only warm weather, (it was then winter) there might be a chance. But seven summers had passed since her birth and she had gradually become feebler, and my wife and I thought it was just a matter of time until the child would be called to a better home. About this time Dr. Williams Pink Pills were prominent- ly brought to our notice through a cure they wrought in a neighbor's child. f thought I wood give them a trial and so informed the doctor, hut he only laughed at the idea of them helping her. However I bought a box of Pink Pills, an began giving them to her, half a pill at a time. After a short treatment there was such an improvement that neither her mother nor, I could doubt I that Dr. Williams Pink Palls were helping her, and I decided to aband- en the doctor'e sorvice altogether. The Pink Pills treatment was eon - tinned and although the progress towards health and strength was necessarily slow, it was none the less certain, and it was continued until she is as well and strong as you see her today, and I am thankful to say she has hacl no occasion for medical treatment since. i ant a strong believer In the efficacy of Dr. Wil- i liiitns' Pinlc Pills, for weak and i delicate children and I firmly believe it was this medicine that saved my child." Dr, Williams' Pink Pills are an allround year medicine and are quite as efficacious in the case of children as in adults. They restore to the blood its lacking constituents and make it rich, red and pure. In this way they strengthen the system and drive oat disease. There are many cases like the above inwhich this won derful medicine has restored health and strength aster the best medics advice had failed, The genuine Pink Pills are sold in boxes the wrapped round which bears the full trace mark. "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills" for Pale People." There are other pills colored pink, but they ate base imitations offered only Meuse they give the dealer a greater profit. They should always be refused.
