This new blood drives out disease, clears the skin and makes weak, easily tired men and women and children bright, active and strong. Miss A. M. Dugay, Lower Cove, N. 8., says: “I believe I owe my life to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. My blood seemed to have turned to water. I was pale as a sheet, I suffered from headaches, and {leat- ing specs seemed to be constantly before my eyes. As the trouble progressed my limbs began to swell, and it was feared that dropsy had set in and that my case was hopeâ€" less. Up to this time two doctors had attended me, but notwithstand- ing I kept growing worse. It was at this juncture I began using Dir. "Williams’ Pink Pills, and after tak- ing a few boxes I was much imâ€" proved. I kept on using the Pills until I had taken eight boxes, when my health was completely rc- sl‘ored.” .

Some have attributed it to the despair natur- ally arising from the long impris- onment. But this is to overlook the heroic mold in which the Bap- tist was cast. His difficulty was, not that he had formed an imper- fect conception of the Messiah. He was not one of, those who looked But he did look for the “ax” and the “fan” of the reformer (Matt. 3 10 and 12), and the sacrificial acts of the “Lamb of God” (John 1; The acts of which trcport was brought to him, on the other hand, were performed at the height of the popularity of Jesus, and bore no marks of a reformer or a suffering Messiah. His question, therefore, one of impatience. He wanted to have all uncertainties settled as to whether his work had been for no- thing, and they were to look for another, or whether this was actu- ally theMessiah of whom the pro- phets had Spoken. 4.

' ' makes it clear that Jesus means to say that before John all was pro- pl‘ecy of the kingdom, and John preached it as a present reality, no longer to be prophesied, but to be entered by violence. 14-.
