The Agonies of Indigestion Can "be Cured By Dr. Yi/illiams’ Pink Pills. ’ All over the land there are people whose lives had been made miserable through the pangs of 1nd1gest10n, Who have been restored to the en- joyment of health through the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. One of these is Mr. Wm. Moore, of Welland, Ont. Mr. Moore is the manager of the electric light plant in that town. and stands high in the estimation of Lhe citizens. He says: “It is really a pleasure to speak in favor of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. For four years prior to 1903 I suffered great tor- ture from indigestion and stomach trouble. I could not eat solid food without experiencing great agony, and for over two years I had to re- sort to a milk diet. I had grown emaciated and was almost unlit for active work. I was treated by docâ€" tors and took advertised medicines, but without any lasting benefit. One day a friend urged me to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I began their use. but I must confess that it, was without much hope that they would cure me. After taking a couple of boxes I could see an improvement, and this gave me encouragement. I continued using the pills until I had taken eight boxes, when I was comâ€" pletely cured and able to eat any kind of food I desired. I shall al- ways praise Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, as they saved me from such misery as only a dyspeptic knows. I might add that my wife has also used the pills for troubles that afflict her sex, and has been fully restored to health.” Dad blood, poor blood, watery blood, is the cause of nearly every ailment that afflicts mankind. It is because every dose of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills make new, rich, red blood that they have, such wonderful power to cure such' ailments as indigestion, anaemia, rheumatism, neuralgia, St. Vitus dance, heart troubles, kidney and liver troubles, and the special ailments of women, young and old.

' “You admit that you hvax'e been in prison, sir?” "I have,” was~ the unblushing an- swor. “Would you kindly tell us how many years you have spent behind prison bars?” . “About twenty years,” unhesitatâ€" inglv replied the subject. “Dear, dear!” exclaimed the proâ€" fessor. “Will you sit down, please?” The subject sat down in a chair in the centre of the stage.
