A young man from here was in Clin- ton on Saturday offering to bet some of his surplus money about the vera- city of two other men.

CONFINED TO THE HOUSE FOR MONTH AND VNA131e1 • T9 W.iJ,ll1 A SENSATIONAL STORY FROM TRJ NEIGHBORHOOD OFCOOICSVILLE—THL FATTIER TELLS HOW Hirl SON OBTAIN- ED RELEASE—WHAT A PROMINENT TORONTO DRUQGIST sAl.i. From the Toronto Nene. Four miles from the 'village of Cooks- ville, which is 15 miles west of Toronto on the Credit Valley division of the C. P. R., on what is known as the "Centre Road" is the farm of Thomas O'Neil. In the village and for miles around he is known as a man always ready to do a kindness to anyone who stands in need of it. Because of this trait in his character, whatever effects himself or his household is a matter of concern to the neighbors generally. So it happen- ed that when his eldest son, William O'Neil, was stricken down last spring, and for months did not go out of the door, those living in the vicinity were all aware of the fact and frequent en- quiries were made regarding the young inan. When after suffering severely for some three months, young O'Neil reappeared sound and well his case was the talk of the township. Nor was it confined to the immediate vicinity of Cooksville, as an outer ripple of the tale reached the News, but in such an iudeflnite shape that it was thought advisable to send a reporter to get the particulars of the case, which proved to be well worth publishing in the public interest. On reaching Cooks ville the reporter found no difficulty in locating the O'Neil farm, amt after a drive ot four or five miles the place was reached. Mr. O'Neil was found at the barn attending to his cattle, and on being made aware of the reporter's mission told the story in a straightfor- ward manner. He said: "Yes it is true my boy had a remarkable exper- ience. I was afraid he wasn't going to get better at all, for the doc- tor did him no good. At the time he was taken ill he was working for a farmer a couple of miles from here, and for a time last spring he did a lot of work on the road, and while he was working at this there was a spell of cold wet weather, when it rained for nearly a week. He kept working right through the wet and he came home with his shoulders and wrists so sore that he couldn't work. He got gradu- ally worse, the pains spreading from his shoulders and wrists to his hands and then to bis legs, filially settling in his k' ees and ankles and feet, so that lie couldn't stir at all some days. I sent for a doctor from Streets- ville. He said the trouble was an at-. tack of rheumatism, and although he kept visiting hint every few days and giving medicine, it did not seem to do any good. The pains did not quit and the boy was suffering dreadfully. Wh'y when he would wake in the morning he couldn't stir a limb, but gradually during the day he' would get a little easier so that he could sit up for a while. His feet were swollen so much that he could not put on either hoots or stockings. After he had been doctoring for nearly two months with- out getting a hit better, I concluded to try something else, so the next time I went to Toronto, I got three boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at Hugh Miller's drug store. We followed the directions with the Pink Pills, but the first box did not seem to do him any good, but he had scarcely begun the second box when he began to improve greatly, and by the time the third box was gone he was as well and sound as ever, and has not had a pain since. He is now working on a farm about six miles from Cooksville, and is as sound and hearty as any young man can bo. • On his return to Toronto, the report- er called at the store of Messrs. Hugh Miller & Co., 167 King street east, to hear what that veteran druggist had to say about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He remembered Mr. O'Neil getting the Pink Pills, and on a second visit Mr. O'Neil had told him that Pink Pills had cured his son. Mr. Miller, in answer to a question as to how this preparation sold, said that of all the remedies known as proprietary medi- cines Pink Pills was the most popular. He said he sold more of these than he did of any other remedy he ever handl- ed. This is a valuable testimony com- ing from a man like Hugh Miller, who is probably the oldest and most widely known druggist in Toronto. The Dr. Williams'' Medicine Co. aro to he con- gratulated on havingproduced a remedy which will give such results, and which can be vouched for by the best dealers in the province. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a per- fect blood builder and nerve restorer, curing such diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous head- ache, nervous prostration and the tired feeling, therefrom, the after effects of la grippe, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, ete.

The price at which these pills are wild makes a course of treatment compara- tively inexpensive as compared with other rerneclies or medical treatment. MARKET REPORTS.
