Health and Strength Slave Been
Restored.
From the Owen Sound Times,
Last fall when the Times gave en an -
orient of the miraoulous cure of William
Belrose throe& the use of Dr, Williams'
Pik Pills for Pole People, we had little
idea that we would be called upon to
write up e. case which is even more re.
marktble. The case referred to is that
of Mrs. John C. Monnell, whose cure
has been effected by these marvellous
little messengers of health.. The Times'
reporter was met at the door by Mrs.
lionnell, who, though showing a feii•
traces of the suffering she had onder-
gone, move2 about very sprightln, With
apparently all the gratitude or a man
who had been sawed out of the deepest
affliction, 16Ir. Morinell gave the following
account of his wife's nalmenlous (sure. I
have been in the employ of the C. P. R.
ab Toronto junction for some time. In
August last year, after confinement, iny
wife took a chill, and whet is commonly
known as milk -leg set in. When I came
home from my work I was informed of
the feet, and next morning the family
physician was called in. The limb swel-
led in a very short time to an enormoue
size. Every means known was adopted
to reduce the inflammation, but without
avail. Consulting physicians were cal-
led in, but all the satisfaction they could
give me was that the dootors in attend-
ance wore doing their utmost. A. tank
was rigged up, a long line of fubber hose
attached and wound around the afflicted
limb and ice water allowed to trickle
down through the piing to relieve the
pain and reduce the mflammation above
the knee. The leg was opened and per-
forated, a tube being inserted from the
thigh to the ankle with the hope that it
would carry off the pus which formed.
For five long anxious months I watched
the case with despair, while my wife was
unable to move herself in bed. At the
end of that time she was placed la a
chair where she spent another three
months. To add to the complication
gangrene set in and for weeks there was
a fight for life. At last the physicians
gave up. They said the only hope WU in
the removal of my wife to the hospital.
After a brief consultation she emphatio.
ally refused to go, stating that if she had
to die, she would die amongst her little
ones. At this time she could not pee
her foot to the ground. Her nominal
weight was 135 pounds when in good
health, but the affliction reduced her to
a living skeleton for she lost 65 pounds
in the five months. To all human in-
telligence it was simply a case of Availing
, for the worst. Up to this time I had
not thought of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People, until one day I came
across an advertisement and determined
to try them. This was two months ago
just about the time we were moving up
here from the Junction.
At this point Mrs. Monnell took up the
story of the wonderful cure, and corrobo-
rated what her husband stated. Con-
tinuing she said : "After using a few
boxes I could walk on crutches, and
after their further use I threw away my
• crutches and am now doing all my own
housework. The limb is entirely healed
up, and the cords, whir% in the terrible
ordeal had been forced out of their
places, have (some back to their natural
position. And to show how complete has
been my recovery I am pleased to say
that I have recovered my lost weight and
five pounds over. 6 now weigh 140
pounds.
"We spent 6275 in doctors' fees and
other espouses without avail, before be-
ginning the use of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills," said Mr. Mennen, "and it seems
marvellous that my wife, who a few
months ago was considered past human
aid, has by this wonderful medicine
been restored to health and strength ;"
and the Times concurs in the conclusion.
Mr. Monnell is one of the 0. P. R.
staff of clerks at this port, and he is al-
ways willing to tall of the oure effected.
But there ale:, hundreds of Witnesses to
the truth of Ms statements both in Owen
Bound ancl at Toronto where he resided
up to two months ago.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills ate offered
with a confidence that they are the
only perfect and unfailing blood purifier
and nerve restorer, and where given a
fair trial disease and suffering must
vanish. Sold by all dealere or sent by
mail on receipt of 50 cents a box or six
boxes for 02,50 by addressing Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Company, Brockville,
Ont., or Schenectady, N. Y. Beware of
imitations and re/use trashy aubstibutes
alleged to be "just as good."

Looking at them closely it is not hardto be-
lieve that some of them might have been made by
ants, so very small their step and so crooked their
way ; excitable little creatures that with all their
flurry never seem to get anywhere in particular,
and whose whole interest seems to be that of turn-
ing aside from obstacles. Others again, in the
great length of their stride, remind0110 of the
mighty jump of the kangaroo. They are evidently
getting somewhere, and on reflection it occurs to
the observer that these must be the tracks of those
shrewd merchants who `got there' by jumping from
one advertisement in TI1E Baussms Posx to anoth-
er, and as we ponder their prodigious strides, those
beautiful lines of the poet come to mind :
