Tills Wee What lhbppeded to a Well

Prom the News, Unto n, B. O.
A little over a year ago the reporter of
the News, while etauding in front of the
office, before its removal to'Union, notic-
ed four men oarryiug J. P. Davis, the
well kuown florist and gardener, into the
Courtenay House. The reporter, ever on
the alert for a mews item, at once went
over to investigate the matter, and learn-
ed that Mr. Davis bad had a slight stroke
of paralyaie. A note of the circumstances
appeared in the News at the time and
nothing further was beard of it. Last
spring Mr. Davie was observed to be
fregnentiy in Union bringing flowers and
later vegetables for sale, and the reporter
meeting him one day the following con-
versation took plaoe :—"Glad to see you
looking so well, Mr. Davis," said the re-
porter, "the last time I saw you yon
seamed pretty badly broken up."
"Yes," said Mr. Davis, "I did have a
pretty tough time of it. I was troubled
with my heart, having frequent severe
spasms, and shortness of breath on slight
exertion. I had also a swelling of the
neck which was said to be goitre. ' Two
years ago I came up from Nannimo ,and
took the Harvey ranch hoping a change

would do me good, but in this I was dis-
appointed, and seemed to he steadily
growing weaker. I had three doctors at
different tithes, but they appeared not
to understand my case. At last I got
down so low that one day I fell on the
street, end those who picked me up
thought I was dying. After that I was
urged to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
and almost from the outset they helped
me and after the use of about half a
dozen boxes I was as well as ever." "Do
yon still take the Pink Pills 7" asked the
reporter. "We11,1 was the reply, "I still
keep them about me, and once in a while
when I think I require a tonic, I take a
few, but you clan see I don't look like a
man who requires to take medicine now."
On this point the reporter quite agrees
with Mr. Davis, as he looks as vigorous
and robust a matt as you could wish to
see. After parting with Mr. Davis the
reporter called at Pimbury .& Cols drug
store, where he Waw the manager, Van
Houton, who corroborated what Mr,
Davis had said regarding the ase of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, and further stated
that he believed Pink Pills to be the finest
tonic in the world, and gave the names of
several who had found remarkable bens -
fit from their use.
