The science .of art of medication holds an 'unique place in the esteem of the entire civilized world bemuse by a jadieious application of peo. gresstve aeience relative to the asst of healing innumerable triumphs &tie won in the struggle for health. The profession of medicine we may safely say, is no a eneeure, irs triumphs and success are atehearaed daily by the million. Those who aro in the van- guard of thiaemovetnent are our great- est benefactors. Their discoveries are a boon to humanity; they have given releif to t.honsands who would have dragged out a miserable and more or less brief existence. Dr, Williams by means of his Pink Pills has earned and enjoys the gratitude of untold numbers who were on the verge of isolation or death because their case defied the skill of the medical practitioner. Tho ruthless hand of nature permits only the sur- vival of the strongest, but the tender ministrations of medical science, as exemplified in Dr. Williams Pink Pills, secure the survival of the weak - e t, which is in „harmony with the divine injunction, "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak and not please our- selves." These famous pills have given strength to the apparently hopelessly wean, and vitalized and invigorated fragile and debilitated oon•ititutions enthroue:d health and strength, thus increasing every valrie and enhanc- ing every jay. In substantiation of the reputed merits of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills read the following testi- monial of one of Glengarry'e res- ponsible citizens. Samuel Nile, of the village of Lancaster is oneof the best known men in the county "For three successive winters' "Lays Mr. Nile, "I suffered from severe attacks tf la grippe.
