At that time my liver and kidneys combined in what seemed to me their last attack. I used several medicines and doc- tored in Buffalo and St. Catharines without getting any relief, ea my confidence in medicine was about gone. I was getting no rest day or night and was becoming despond- ent, finally I 'W18 persuaded to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

These pills are the nearest to a specific of anything 1 aver used, and they are the cheapest and best'medi- dieye I ever tested, having thoroughly repelled my ease and effected a cure.

The Seaforth Highlanders, aihongst their many dietinotions, boast the most formidable array of titles of any regiment in the service, their full name being " The Seaforth Highland- ers, Ross -shire Buffs, the :Duke of Al- bany's." These titles are in part de- rived from the original names of the two battalions—the 72nd, Duke of Al- bany's Own, and the 780, Highland - Ross -shire Buffs. The title of "'The Seaforth" was revived on the amal- gamation of the two battalions in 1881, as both were originally raised by the Earl of Seaforth from his 030n clan —the Mackenzies. By a peculiar coin- cidence the 72nd w'as during the first eight years of its existence the 78th. butt on the reduction of the army in 178(1 assumed its later number.

In its earlier history it' is recorded that, In 1808, of a draft of 400 leen from the Perthshire and Ross -shire militia sent oat to juin the 1:ideation in India, three hundred were " six feet and upwards In height, with strength of limb and person equal to their height." At present botb battalions con- tain a large proportion of Scots in their. ranks, and it may safely he said that in NO REGIMENT IN THE SERVICE is the esprit de corps more alive than with the Seafort.hs, Of the splendid services of the two battalions it is impossible here to give even rt brief history. The list of honors begins with "Carnatio" and ends with "Chit- ral," and the first battalion, which recently left Crate, Le now in the Sou- dan, whetre it took ptu't in the recent battle of Albara. It may, however, be mentioned, teat at Assaye the 78th was led by Wellesley—afterwards the Duke of Wellington—himself, and that both battalions did great things dur- ing the Mutiny, many instances of in- dividual gallantry being recorded. The 78th received high praise from General Havelock at Cawnpore, and in later years the 72nd was frequently mentioned. for gallantry in Afghanis- tan; the exploits of the latter in Egypt and Chitral are too recent to need re- counting. The late Duke of Albany was for some years the honorary colonel of the Seaforths, the present colonel being Sir Arebibald Alison.
