WILLIAMS’ PINK PILLS. _â€" Mr. Etsell, of Walkerton, Suffered For Months and. Got no Relief Until He Began the Use of ‘ These Pills. Of the many ax d: 00.. Walkorton, ()nt., stands his cmpIOyors than does Mr. 'l‘hos. J. EtSell. He is an excellent meâ€" chanic, and has been in the employ of this firm for upwards of ten ycars. But although Mr. Etsell now ranks among the few men who are never absent from their post of duty, the time was when he was as often absent as present, all because of physical inability to perform his work. For years Mr. Etsell was a great sufferer from sciatica, and at times the suffering became so in- tense that for days he was unable to leave the house. During these years, Mr. Etsell, as may readily be imagined, was con- tinually on the lookout for some remedy that would rid him of the disease, but for a long time without success. Doctors were consulted and although he took the treatment pre- scribed, it did not help him. Then he tried electric treatment, but this also failed to give relief, and in deâ€" spair ho had about made up 1113‘ ated in th ew , employees of R. Tru- mem 0 ’1 WWW”! by the state- mind that his case was hopeless and that he would be a. suffering, help- less cripple to the end of his days. Then one ,day a neighbor adv;sod him to try Dr. Williams' Pink I’ills.‘ At first he refused, believing they like other medicines. neighbor was so insistent, herself been greatly benefit- ed by these pills, so that at last he consented. The remainder of the story may best be told in his own words. “When I began taking these pills,” said Mr. Etscll to a reporter of the Telescope, “I had been off work for three months. The cords of my right leg were all drawn up, and I could only limp about with the aid of my stick. The pain I suffered was ter- rible. I could not sleep at all dur- ing the night, and I was in misery both night and day. 'At first I thought the pills were doing me no good but after I had taken six home I fancied I was feeling better. and was encouraged to continue the treatment. After that I got better every day, and by the time I had taken about fifteen boxes every vesâ€" tige of pain had disappeared. For over a year," continued Nr. Etsell "I have not. had a twinge of pain, and although I am forty years of age I feel as well as when I was twanty. Pink Pills cured me, and I have no hesitation in announcing them the best medicine in the world for sciatica." The cure of Mr. Etsell proves that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are not an ordinary medicine, and that their power to cure in all troubles of the blood or nerves places them beyond all other medicines. You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or direct by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 by writing The Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Ilrockvillo, Ont. See that the full name "Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People” is printed on the wrapper around every box. â€"â€"â€"+ WIDOWERS IN DEMAND. 'An ingenious calculation in the English Registrarâ€"General’s annual report for 1902, shows that as be« tween a. bachelor and widower of the same ageâ€"whatever that age may bcâ€"it is more likely that the widower will rcmarry than that the bachelor will marry. But as beâ€" tween a bachelor and a widower scl- ectcd without regard to age it is less likely that the widower will reâ€" marry than that the bachelor will marry, because it is probable that. the widower is several years the older. 0f the 523,500 persons who married in 1902, 479 were divorced persons. Fortyâ€"seven per 1,000 of the wives were under age. Of the men 91 per 1,000 were widowers, and 68 per 1,000 of the women were widows. ______+___.
