PILLS AND WAS CURED.
From the Mail, Granby, gyue.
Mr. Albert Fisher, accountant at
Payne's cigar: factory, Granby, Quo.,
is known to almost every resident of the
tow.:. and is held in the highest esteem,
by all who know him. In conversation
with the , editor of the Mail redoutl y
something was said concerning Dr. Will-
ialns'PinkPills,whonMrr.Fisher romarlc-
ed that be haclfound these pills a very
valuable medicine. It WAS suggested
that he should make his experience known
and to this he readily consented Band-
ing to the Mail the following letter
for publication: -
Granby, March 16th,1000.
In justice to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
I think it my duty,in view of what they.
Lave done for me, to add my testimon-
ial to the many which I halve seen 111
print. For some months I suffered most
severely from up and my back. It was
thou'ht these were due to liver and
kidney trouble, but whatever the cause,
they kept me in terrible agony. The
pains were not confined to the back but
would shift to other parts of -ti ; body.
As result, I could get littl

THREE YEARS AT THE HELM.
With this issue the Truss s complete i
;its third year under the management of
the present propiotor. 'W'e have now
spent over twelve years in Wingllam
and during that time have been connect-
ed with the TnIrs, serving from "devil"
to our present position. When we took
control three years ago, the newspaper
outlook in Wingham was anything but
bright for a new -beginner. The main
obstacle being three newspapers in the
town. We, however, took control and
aesolved to make the best of the situa-
tion. We at once set to work to give
the public a better paper, audit was not
long until the Truss was on the upward
tread and to -day it is in better shape
than it had ever been in the past. The
Teeple of Wingham and vicinity have
been liberal in the way of advertising
and job work and our subscription list
bas grown nicely in the three years of
our ownership. Our able staff of cor-
respondents have aided us, very much in
the work of turning out a good news -
Taper. We heartily thank them and
trust they will not tire in the good work.
Mo all patrons and friends we wish to
thank for their many favors and patron -
rage and we hope by honest dealing to
better serve you for years to come.
"Wingham is the best town in Western
Ontario and can properly support two
.good newspapers. The papers here now
'will compare favorably with papers
published in much larger towns. Since
taking control several hundred dollars
-worth of new material has been added
to the plant, which enables us to turn
out job printing which will bear com-
Tarison with work from the best offices.
Again wethankourpatrons for past favors
and hope; to have a continuance of their
Tatronage.

, and I was
any different
est, and which
disgusted me wi medicine. A friend
suggested that I try Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. I was not easily persuaded, for
I had given up medicine, as nothing had
helped nie, but as he insisted, I finally
concluded to give them a trial. I
purchased one box and was astonished
to find that before it was entirely used
I was quite a bit relieved and after
.using six more, was fully restored to my
former health. I take great pleasure in
recommending this valuable reinedj,that
others may profit by my experience,and
not suffer the tortures that I did.
Yours sincerely,
Albert Fisher:.
Dr' Williams' Pink Pills cure by
going to the root of the disease. They
renew and build up tho blood aucl
strengthen the nerves, thus driving the
disease from the system. If your dealer
does not keep them, they will be sent
postpaid. at 50 cents a box, or six boxes
for $2.50, by addressing the Dr. Wil-

A LETTER FROM LOUGHEED.
Wingham's Representative in South Africa
Heard Froin -The War has not Fared
ill With Him.
On Tuesday morning Frank Seli was
the happy recipient of a letter from
David Lougheed of the Canadian
Mounted Infantry, or, as Lord. Roberts
was pleased to call them, the Royal
Canadian Dragons. The stamp on the
letter was an Orange Free State. .The
design was a tree. On the top was
the word, Vriz, ou the bottom, Eeu
Penny, and on the side, Oranje Stoat.
The letter was in memoranda form be-
ginning ou April 26th and ending en
May 18th. Mr. Seli has kindly given us
a few extracts for publication:
"We marched from, Bethulie to
Bloemfontein' and are now in camp
seven miles beyond and are waiting for
the rest of the Canadians to come up
with ns as there are large bodies of .the
Boers not far from us. We have been
fighting since Sunday. B. squadron
losing seven men. We have not yet
received full particulars, but I suppose
you may -know more about it than I do.
The Boers have been forced around to
about in front of us which is north in
line with Pretoria. If they do not look
sharp the British will have them cor-
raled as our troops occupy positions ex-
tending for a considerable distance from
east to west. When we get the order to
march we won't do a thing, but carry
them in front of us.
"Every one is anxious for the march
and to have it over, for to tell the truth
the boys are not afraid nor in the
slightest timid but they would be glad
were they ordered home to -morrow."
A portion of the letter written latter
says: -"So to -day I am up as far as
Kroonstad, and will soon be in the
Transvaal. We have boon under fire
for many days. I know now what it is
to have bullets fly like hail, and to have
shells bursting and tearing up the
ground about me."
In conclusion he says :-" To -day the
General told tds he was proud of is.
We were greatly praised for the part we
took in the big battle. Tell mother, we
have been recommended by the head
push. I am feeling like a daisy."
We sincerly trust that Mr. Lougheecl's
flowery feeling may not -wear off until
lae.oncc more sets foot tri Wingham.
