PATRICK'S CONCERT. -There was a good audience in Victoria Hall on Tuesday evening, when the concert, annually given in memory of St Pat- rick, was held. As might be expected, the program was extansiye, including as it did, most of our local talent. Mrs. Logan and Miss G. Doyle commenced the program with a pleasing piano dnett : a pretty part song, "The Harp That Once Through Tara's Halls," was contributed by Mesdarnea, Curzon and Pridbam, Misses Washington and Chil- ton, and Messrs. Gundry Dowding, Thompson and Belcher ; and E. Bel- cher, who was in very good voice, gave "The Clang of the Hammer," in his best style. Mies Chilton and Mr. Cuff were much appreciated in the pretty duett "Oh that we were Mayingg"; an. instrumental trio, Mesdames Curzon and •Kiely and Mr. Cuff, was nicely played. '`The Irish Emigrant" by W. (Duff was musically rendered. Miss Winifrede Ball recited "Phadrig Oro- hoore" in a manner that did not blem- ish her reputation as an elocutionist. Mise Ball received an unanimous en- core, but merely bowed her thanks. Miss Chilton sang "The Bay of 4kub- li7s," and a part Jaing, "Herne, Sweet Home," concluded part I. Jas.

BUT IT IS NO MORE FREE FROM THE ILLS TO WHICH FLESH IS HEIR THAN LESS FAVORED LOCALITIES -AN ACCOUNT OF A STRANGE MALADY•FROM WHICH A GASPEREAUX FARMER SUFFERED. From the Acadian, Wolfvillo, N. S. Perhaps there is eo more headtiful or picturesque spot in Nova Scotia than the valley of Gaspereaux, in the "Land of Evangeline." Winding its way through the centre of the valley is a beautiful little river, while nestled at the foot of the mountains which rise on either side to the heighth of hundreds of feet, is the romantic look- ing little village of Gaspereaux. About two and a half miles from the village resides Mr. Fred J. Fielding, one of the most thrifty formers in this section of the country. Your correspondent called upon hien and found a very genial, intelligentand apparently a very healthy looking man, In reply to our question, Mr. Fielding said, "Yes, I was near to death's door at one time, but thank God I am a new man to -day. You see, he went on, that pump in the kitchen, beneath is a well about 20 feet deep, which was the cause, 1 think of all my illness. I went down last fall (1894) in it to clean it out and was only a short time at the bottom, when I took with a severe pain at the hack of my head and a burning sensation in my throat and lungs, such as caused by the inhalation of brimstone. A sort of stupor also was gradually coming over me when by it huge effort, I suc- ceeded in regaining the kintchen once more. A lighted lamp let down be- came extinguished, thus showing that the accumulation of gas had caused the trouble. The pain at the back of my head continued to trouble me and one day while working in a back field I suddenly lost the use of my left eye, right arm and left leg. At times I could not speak but towards evening I began slowly to grow better. The next day at about the sante time I was seized again in the same manner. I now called in our family physician who told me that a blood vessel bad burst in the back of my head. He left me medicine. The pain in the back of my head never left the and I continued to feel miserable. About two months after this second attack while sitting in the post office of the village I was suddenly seized again and getting otit my horses and wagon started for home._ I had not gone far when the lines, dropped out of my right hand and 1 again found myself blind in my left eye and the right arm and left leg paralyzed. The horses now carried me home hut passed the house in the direction of the barn. My wife thinking 1 had gone on to the barn paid no attention for perhaps 15 minutes, when she sent one of the children to see what was keeping ore. At this time I was unable to speak and had to he assisted into the house. Be- fore bed time I began to recover some- what and felt fairly well the next morning, hut was again seized during the day in the sante manner and the report, reached the village that I was dead. Neighbors came flocking out expecting that it was true. As the medicine 1 bad tried seemed to do me no good, I now thought I would try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and by the time I had used six boxes the pain had left my head and I felt as good as new. 1 now ceased using them for about a month when I thought I felta recur- rence of the pain at the back of my head, I sent again andof three more poxes and used them. ItRis now about five months since i used the last pill, and I have never had a recurrence of the attack, besides i feel myself a new man. I am now 39 years of Cage, and have always worked on a farm and never enjoyed work Netter than last summer and autumn and am positive Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured ene. I now always keep them in my house and when my wife or children have any sickness cur resort is to this medi- cine and always with the very hest effect. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are offered with a confidence that they are the only perfect and unfailing blood build- er and nerve restorer and when given a fair trial disease and suffering must vanish. Sold by all dealers or sent by mail on receipt of 60 cents a box or $2.50 for six boxes. by addressing the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont., orSchnectady, N. Y.
