Doomed to an Invalid's Life—Dr Williams'
Phil; Pills Cured Him When Hope Had

From the Post, Thorold, Ont.
Mr. James Dabauld and wife aro two
of the best known residents of the town
of Thorolcl, -where they have passed
many years. In their family they have
a little son, `'rho, although but ten years
of age, has experienced much affliction,
and his parents expended ninny a dollar
in the search for his renewed health—
all in vain, however, until Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills were brought into use.
A Post reporter hearing of the cure
called at Mr. Dabauld's cosy homo and.
received full particulars from Mrs. Da-
bauld, "I am pleated," said Mrs. Da-
bauid "to have the public macre aware of
the facts of my boy's case if it is likely
to help some other sufferer. Charle

seven he scarcely passed a w
four years of age he began
of frequent headaches
became almost co
symptoms of getter
His appetite was poor and he grew pale
and emancipated, and the least exertion
caused a severe palpitation and flutering
of the heart, and dizziness. At times
there was considerable derangement of
his stomach; a blueness of the lips and a
shortness of breath. He would often lie
awake at night and rise in the morning
haggard and unrefreshed. During his
illness he was treated by two doctors.
B oth differed in the diagnosis of the case.
One said it was catarrh of the stomach,
and while his treatment was persisted in
there was no improvement. The second
also attendedliim for some time with no
better results. Some time after my
attention was attracted by my aunt to
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and about
September, 1897, I procured the pills and
he began taking them. We had long
before come to the conclusion he would
be an invalid for life, but believing it a
duty I owned to my child to procure all
means of relief, I was determined to give
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial.
The good effects of the first box was
apparent, and five boxes were used,
which were taken in about six months'
time, when he was strong and well, and
could attend school, and play and frolic
as other healthy boys do. As every
symptom of his old trouble has vanished.
I consider his cure complete. The pills
have certainly done him a world of good
as nearly three years have since- passed
away and he has not seen a sick day in
that length of time. I shall ever feel
that we owe our boy's health to Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills, and believe that their
prompt use would relieve much suf-
fering."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are just as
valuable in the case of children as with
adults, and puny little ones would soon
thrive and grow fat under this treatment,
which has no equal for building up the

THOSE PROHIBITION QUESTIONS 1
'To the Editor of the Timss.
Su1,--1 wish to occupy a little space
in your journal in correcting some state-
ments made by the editor of the Ad-
vance in reference to what is said. to
have taken place at my meeting, in the
town hall on the evening of the 25th ult.
He asserts that I stated that "not a
single Tory paper had ever hacl the fair-
ness to publish my denial" of Dr.
Sproul's charge that I was sitting in
Parliament in violation of the Iaide-
pendeuee of Parliament Act, by bene-
fitting financially in a dredge in the em-
ploy of the Government.
What I did say was that "not a single
Tory paper in East Huron had the fair-
ness to publish my denial." And this
statement is absolutely true. The Mail
and Empire published my denial as well
• as other Conservative papers, but the
editor of the Advance had not the fair -
mess to publish it.
The editor of the Advance publishes
,questions purported to leave been put to
me by the Rev. W. J. Freed after the
meeting was over and the answers
which it is said I gave thereto.
The following are the questions and
answers as stated in the Advance:
"How many prohibitionists are there
in the House?". asked. Mr. Freed.
"Probably 14," was the reply.
"How many of these," asked Mr.
.'Treed, could. Mr. Laurier put his finger
en and know that they would vote for
prohibition from principle aside from
darty?"
"Not one," replied the Doctor.
I deny absolutely that these questions
were ever put to me by Mr. Freed or
any other person, but if they had. I cer-
tainly could not answer them as they
.are said to be answered, because in the
.first place I do not know the number of
prohibitionists in the House, although I
know there are a good many, and in the
second place I know that many of these
are true prohibitionists who wouid vote
against party at any time if prohibition
and party came in contact.
The editor of the Advance seized upon
the answer which was imputed to me,
-viz: "Not one," and indulged in a criti-
4hui of my position as follow
"Not even Dr. Macdonald who for So
;many years posed as a prohibitionist
sed urged his hearers to lay aside party-
ism and vote from principe." .
Now, as no such question was pro-
pounded to me and no such answer given,

The Mutual Life Assurance Co.

2—A large surplus.
3—A low death and expense rate.
Tho third annual convention of the 4—All the best groes,
Huron County W. C. T. U. was held in I Enquire rates of
the Blyth Methodist church on Wednes-
day of last week. Miss Fisllor,of Wing-
ABNER COSENS,
ham, county vice-president, presided. Agt. The Mutual Life Assurance Com -
The convention was opened. at Mine a. pa11y of Canada, formerly the Ontario
m. by Mrs. Myles Young, of Blyth, con- Mutual Life
ducting devotional exercises, after which
Miss Fisher resumed the chair and called
upon the recording secretary, Mrs. Mc-
Gillicuddy, of Goderich, for the minutes
of the previous convention, which were
read and approved.
(Che corresponding secretary, Mrs. A.
Ross, of Wingham, then read reports
from the local unions, all of which were
adopted by the convention, when Mrs.
E. P. Paulin, of Wingham, reported on
the gospel temperance work done in
Wingham.
In the absence of the county treasurer,
Mrs. M. Y. McLean, of Seaforth, the
treasurer's report was read by Mrs. Colin
Campbell, of Goderich. showing a good
balance on hand. Much regret was felt
that Mrs. McLean declined to again take
the office of treasurer and as a recogna -
tion of her past services a very hearty
vote of thanks was carried by the con-
vention.
The following departments were re-
ported ou as follows: Sailors,Mrs. Hol-
land, of Goderich; gaol, Mrs. Acheson,
of Goderich; Sabbath observance, Mrs.
Kirkman, of Seaforth; scientific temper-
ance instruction in schools, Mrs. Ache-
son; lumberman's work, Mrs. Elford, of
Holmesville; press, Mrs. McGillicuddy, '1
of Goderich.
Discussion then took place on scientific
temperance instruction in public schools
and the following resolution carried un-
animously:
Whereas,—The circulars
sent out by the last meeting of The Ont-
ario Educational association, contain
some suggestions of change re scientific
temperance instruction in the public
schools, that are decidedly objectionable
to the W.C.T.U. and friends of temper-
I once in the province as the first points to ,
the exclusion of the text book, the only
authorized basis of instruction; the sec-
ond, to the entire elimination of the sub-
ject from the examinations, the only II .
test of the efficiency of the teaching Ia.
given, at least during the school life of
the pupil; and whereas,—We believe v.
that no knowledge imparted in the
school room equals in importance, that .
which reveals the seductive, destructive
nature of alcohol and other narcotics
and impresses deeply upon plastic minds
God's law of "total abstinence from
poisons;" therefore resolved,—That we
protest vigorously against the retrograde
movement inaugurated in the circular,
and in addition to the present regulations
we ask that text books on scientific tem-
perance be provided for, and graded to
suit the capacity of all pupils who are
sufficiently advanced to use text books
in grammar, geography and arithmetic.
Also, that, wherever promotion examina-
tions are in vogue those who have them
in hand be requested to give scientific
temperance the same place and value on
those examinations that is assigned to
these other subjects; moreover, that
teachers be as thoroughly prepared to
teach scientific tempernnce as anything
else on the list of subjects in which they
are expected to qualify.
Mrs. Slater, of the Blyth W. C. T. U.
then read an address of welcome to the
delegates and Mrs. McGillicuddy made
a suitable reply.
• The followingofficers were elected
for the ensuing year: President, Miss
Fisher, of Wingham; vice-president,
Mrs. Russell, Seaforth; recording -secre-
tary, Mrs. McGillicuddy, of Goderich;
corresponding -secretary, Mrs. Alex.
Ross, Wingham; treasurer, Mrs. Tait, of
Blyth.
The county president was appointed
to represent the Huron County union at
the Provincial convention to bo held at
Smith's Falls.
The thanks of the convention were
tendered the ladies of Blyth for their
generous hospitality.
Aeter singing "God 13e With You.
Till We Meet Again." the convention
was brought to a close. Next year's con-
vention will be held. at Seaforth.

In the evening, a platform mectin ; was

tendance was very large. Rev. W. Pen -
hall opened with prayer and Rev. R.
Hobbs, of Wingham, delivered an inter-
esting address on "The Liquor Traffic;

of Lucknow, recited in excellent style
and Rev. A. McLean gave a short ad-
