AN'OLD LADY’S STORY or DEEP INTEREST T0 OTHERS. Mrs. Robert Bissau, \Vlio Was Crippled With Rheumatism for Nine Years. Despite Advancing Years, “as l‘ound Beliefâ€"She Relates ller Experience that Others Slay l'rollt by it. “ From the Godcrich Star. For upwards of three years the Star has been republishing articles from various papers in Canada and the United States recounting miracles in healing, wrought, often in forlorn cases, by the use of the pre- paration known as Dr. \Villiams‘ Pink Pills fdr Pale People. A more or less intimate acquaintance with the publishers of several of the newspapers warranted us in believ- ing that the cases reported by them were not overdrawn or exaggerated advertise- ment_s,‘_ but were published as truthful statements of remarkable cures from human ills worthy of the widest publicity, that other sufferers might be benefited also. For seine time passed we have heard the name of M rs. Robert Bissett, of Col- borne township, mentioned as one who had experienced much benefit from the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills after years of painful suffering. Curious to know the particulars, a representative of the Star called upon her son at his flour and feed store on Hamilton street, and asked how far the story was true. Without hesitation or reserve Mr. Bissett launched into praise of Pink Pills, which he said had a most wonderful effect in relieving his mother from the suffering of a bedridden invalid, crippled by rheumatism, and restoring her to the enjoyment of a fair degree of health and activity for a person of seventy years of ago. “See her yourself," he said, “I am sure she will freely tell you all about her case, and you can judge how much she owes to Pink Pills. I am sure that it is owing to them that she is alive to-day." Acting on this cordial invitation, the re- porter drove out to the well-known Bissett homestead. Mrs. Bissett was found enjoy- ing an afternoon’s visit at the residence of a neighbor, Mrs. Robertson. Siie laughing- ly greeted the reporter with the assurance that she knew what he had come for as her son had told her the day she was in town what was wanted, and although she had no {wish to figure in the newspapers she was quite willing to tell the facts in her case. “It is about nine years,” she said, “since I was first taken down with r rheumatism and for seven months I lay helpless in bed unable to raise or turn myself. I doctored with local physi- cians and I suppose the treatment I re- ceived must have helped me for I was able to go around again for quite a long while, until another attack came on, and for two years I was again laid up, never being able to put a foot under me, or help myself in any way. I tried everything, bless youâ€"doctors, baths, liniinents and medicines, and of course suffered a great deal, being troubled also with asthma. But although 1 finally got on my feet again I was not able to do anything, and could get across the room only with the help or someone and leaning on a chair which the would push before me. By and by I was advised to try Dr. \Villiauis’ Pink Pills, and though of course 1 had no faith in any- thing, I bonght some at \Vilson’s drug store and began their use, and when I had taken two boxes I felt they were helping me. I continued them quite a while, improving gradually until now I am as you see me, although I have not taken them for a couple of months. I can now go around alone, and although I always keep my stick with me to guard against an accident or a niisstep, I can safely say I am wonderfully improved from the use of Pink Pills. I am no longer a helpless burden and care on my children that I was, and Pink Pills did it.” Mrs. Bissett has been a woman of great activity and industry, and is possessed of an unusually bright and vivacious iniud ; she is a great reader and talks with all the charming interest of one of the old time mothers in Israel. In her long residence of 43 years in this county she has seen many changes, and to her patient toil and untir- iug labors may be attributed much of the prosperity and beauty which is ciiaracteiis- tic of the old homestead. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are a perfect blood builder and nerve restorer, curing such diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia. St. \‘itus’ dance, .nervous headache, nervous prostration and the tired feeling therefrom, the after effects of la grippe, diseases de- pending on humors in the blood, such as scroluln, chronic erysipelas, etc. Pink l‘ills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow couiplexious and are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of any nature. Bear in mind Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are never sold in bulk, or by the dozen or hundred, and any dealer who ofi'ers sub- siitutes in this form is trying to defraud you and should be avoided. Ask your dealer for Dr. “'illiams' Pink Pills for Pale People and refuse all imitations and sub- atitntes. Dr. “'illiains' Pink Pills may be had of all droughts or direct by mail from Dr. Williams llcd¢¢ine (30., Brockville, Out. and Schenectady. N.Y., at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for 82.5%. The price at which these pills are sold makes o course of treatment comparatively inexpensive as compared with other remedies or medical treatment. . f ' y The Fools Not All Dead Yet. .
