rom Tho Toronto World.
One of the most popefer officers at the
recent meeting of the Masonic Grand Lodge
of Canada was Rev. L. A. Betts, of Brook-
ville, Olrand,Chaplain -r 1893-94. While
on his way to grand lode.. Rev. Mr Betts
spent some time in Toronto, and among
other points of interest visited the World
office, It seems natural to talk Dr. Wil-
1iairie' Pink Pills td any one hailing frq>.n
the home of that world-famous medicine,
and•ineidentally the, oonvereation with Mr
Bette turned in that direction, when he
told the World that he had that day met
an old friend whose experience was a most
remarkable one. The friend alluded to is
Mr,Troli Soby, foe mem years proprietor
of one,of the leading hotels of Napanee,
bnt`now a resident of Toronto, and proprl-
etoe,of one of the Queen City's newest and
finest hostelries,. the Grand Union Hotel,
opposite the Union depot. The World was
ihelereeeed with the story Mr Betts told,
and determined to interview Mr Soby and
Secure, the particulars of his case for pub-
lication, Mr Soby freely gives his testis
molly to 'the good done him by Dr Wil-
liams' Pink Pills. A few years ago rhenm-
atielrn,. awitltite attendant, legion of stiles
and pains fastened upon him, and he was
foreke to eetire from business. "For
months," said Mr Soby, "I suffered and
could find no relief from doctors or medi-
cines. This disease was always worse in
the spring and fall, and last year I was al-
most crippled with pain. From my knee
to my shoulder shot pains which felt like
red Iiot needles. Then all my limbs would
be affected at once. Half -a -dozen doctors,
one rafter the other, tried to,cure me, but
did eo good. The rheumatism seemed to
be getting worse. As I had tried almost
everything the doctors could suggest, I
thought I would try a little prescribing on
my own account and purchased a supply of
PinkPille. The good effects were soon
perceptible, and I procured a second sup-
ply, and before these were gone I was
oared of a malady six doctors could not
' put an end to. I have recovered my ap-
petite, never felt better in my life, ant I
g-' r. Williams' Pink Pills credit for
this transformation. My wife, too, is jest
ive
as warm an advocate as I am. A sufferer
for years she has experienced to the full
the good of Dr. Williams' invaluable reme-
dy, and recommends it to all women."
"From what trouble was your wife suf-
fering?" asked the reporter. "Well, Ioan't
juet tell you that,' said Mr Soby. "I do
not know, and I don't think she did. It's
just the same with half the women. They
are sick, weak and dispirited, have no
appetite and seem to be fading away.
There is no active disease at work, but
something is wrong. That is just the way
with my wife. She was a martyr of dy-
spepsia, never in perfect health, and when
she saw the change the Pink Pills made in
me she tried them. The marvelous im-
provtlinent'was just as marked in her case
as in my own, and she says that her whole
system is built up, and that the dyspepsia
and sick headaches have vanished. She, as
well as myself, seems . to have regained
youth, and I have not the slightest hesita-
tion in pronounoing the remedy one of the
most valuable discoveries of the century.
Let the doubters call and see me and they
will be convinced."
These dills are a positive cure for all
tronb'les arising from a vitiated condition
of the blood or a shattered nervone sys-
tem. Sold by all dealers or by mail, from
Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Brook-
ville. Ont., or Schenectady, N. Y., at 50

against which the public is cautioned.
ONTARIO FRUIT CROP.
The I3imilton Times says:—The fruit
Drop in Ontario is spoken of on all sides as
being nearly every line, far in advance of
anything seen here in years. The plum
crop has been exceptionally large and far in
excess of what was anticipated early in
the season, and price have rated very low.
Peaches of all varieties and especially that
choicest of table fruit, early Crawfords,
have, been, en enbrpacds orop, the. best in
ten years. `The 'country Appears glutted
with pears. "Tell me of a place from Nia-
gara to Windsor," remarked Mr Jas.Dixon,
Pf Dixon Bros., this morning, "that isn't
,glutted with peelers The Province from
end to end would appear to bave pears tepee
by the roadsides to.,,udge from, the amount
of fruit brought tie market and railway eta -
does every day. Of course prices have no
bottom." Apples in this vicinity will be a
short orop. Reports from Lambton, Mid-
dlesex, Elgin, .Bruce and parted Kent coun-
ty shows an abundance of apples, but the
showing in Niagara Peninsula is light.
Prices will rule lower than last year, per-
haps 25 cents a barrel.
A usually well informed Western man
planes the Ontario crop at 1,500,000 bar-
reles This is, of course, only an opinion,
and may turn out to be very wide off the
mark. The beet apples in the province
will probably be pinked in Essex and Kent
counties; the apples of these' counties are
for the most part Greenings and Baldwins,
.and promise to be of excellent quality.
Spies are going to be a medium orop, but in
some districts the quality will be poor.
The counties of Grey, Middlesex, Oxford,
Brant and Northumberland bave fairly
good pproepeots. A summary of the situa-
tion throughout the Province gives the fol-
lowing results; summer apples, 75 per Dent.
fall apples, 30 per cent.; winter apples, 40
per cent.
Grapes will be abundant with prices from
1i} to 3 and 4 cents per pound. The fruit is
generally a good sample and not affected by
any of the blights of wkich fruit growers
stand in dread.
