Which showed your face was made of brass
Or copper.
Whenever you ran short of news
Your neighbors you would much abuse,
E'en Charlie and hie pointed shoes
Were mentioned.

Tho tailor boy had much to bear,
While Frank was mad enough to swear
At Jumbo.

Of Jumbo.

You think there's none on earth so great
As Jumbo.

last summer, when the physician frank-

The news came as a terrible shock to
hie wife and ohildren. Long before
this, after a manful etruggle, he bad
been forced to give up work on hie
farm, but there had always been Roper
of his reeovery to buoy up his family
and friend,. But the statement that

ment,
Such was the condition of affairs at
the close of last summer and a little
later it was understood that Mr Pren-
dergast was getting better, and on the•
way to recovery. Lately one of bis
friende while in the Herald lance
tum remarked : ".Prendergast is on
his feet again and se sound as a ball."
Inquiry naturally followed as to what
had produced this remarkable result,
and we were informed that hie recov-
ery was solely due to the use of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People.
The Herald had published the parti-
culars of many remarkable cures by
the use of this remedy, and while not
by any means scepital, felt a strong
desire to verify a case in our locality,
and accordingly drove to Mr. Ponder -
pet's. On reaching the house it was
ascertained that Mr. Prendergast was
some distance away in the field mend-
ing a fence. Thither the scribe wend-
ed his way, meeting with cordial wel-
come and an inviiation to come back to
he house to dinner. After din-
ner we urged him to toll about
the remarkable change that had
taken place in his condition. At first
he was inclined to put us of, saying
that ho hated to think of the old days •
of agony and misery. However at last
he told uu all he had undergone, his
story bearing out what has been said
concerning bis condition.

ship of Rocheater, a former resident of
this village, is known to almoat all in
this section, and is wartnly esteemed by
all his acquaintances. It is well
known that Mr. Prendergast went
through a terrible siege of suffering,
and that few of his f.liends had any
hope of hie recovery. Mr. Prender-
gaet's trouble was chronic enteritis,
After the doctors had given him up,
his wife, hoping against hope, had
urged him to try Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. He scouted the idea at first,
saying that these things were all hum-
bugs. At last, more to please his wife
than anything else, he sent to Comber
for some of the Pink fills. He had
not taken them many days when he
found they were giving him relief.
The pain lessened, his appetite began to
return, and so did hope and confidence.
ITe procured another supply and found
himself growing daily stronger. He
felt that he could walk through the
fields without the fear of being stricken
down by a sudden pain. Later he re-
sumed work on his farm and found to
his amazement that he could do a hard
day's work without fatigue. In a
word that he had completely recovered.
He had taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
at the outset without hope of benefit,
and merely to please his wife; now he
finds them a life borlt" sod an ark of
safety.
