I consulted the doctors, but kept €inking lower until I had given up all hope of ever being better. Happening to be in a store, one day, where medicines were sold, the proprietor noticed my weak and sickly appearance, and, after a few questions as to my health, recom- mended me to try Ayer's Pills. Ihad little faith In these or any other medicine, but concluded, at last, to take his advice and try a box: Before I had used them all, T'was very much better, and two boxes cured me. 1 am now 80 years old; but I believe that if 1t had not been for Ayer's Pills, I should have been in my grave long ago, I buy@ Doxes every year, which make 210 boxes up fo this time, and I would no more be withe out them than without bread." --FH.

THE TROUBLE MAN. 'I'm very sorry, Mr. Wilson. iY know you have done your best, but there hag beefi 50 many complaints of one instinctively respected him even tuough he did not know him, ! He was speaking to onk tf his fore- men--Henry Wilsou--a wan brought up in the works almost--a man who knew all the workings of the place from the way a joint was soldered to the most difficult testing, and yet he was now to loose his place. He had held it for five years. He Lad married Hattie Lane on the surety of a good salary. He had booght his little home on Best street, knowing that he could save enough in a few years to pay for it. But ever since he married Hattie Lane there liad been trouble between himself and his nearest associate in the works, James Qouley. It had Leen a question in' the minds of many which of the two men Hattie would marry.-- Womaelike she chose the one ber friends least expected her to choose, the poorer, the homelier of the two.-- The tronble he and James Conley had was not Henry Wilson's making.-- Conley was always doing something quietly to prejudice others against Wilson. Little tales were exaggerat- ed and carried to the superintendent, little underhand things done to injure bim. And now thé end had come, and he was to be ousted from his place. ey TURSDAY, NOV. if, 15%, us to see what is face did not hs saw Conley ss.

Conley had in- it and found that there had been serious oversights; so he reported spected to the superintendent, and the super. said that the work Lad been tampered with the superintendent simply looked grave and said nothing. "One of the trouble men was killed last week,' the superintendent said, 'and hereafter you will do his work. The wages, of course, will be smaller than you have been receiving.' So when Honry Wilson walked up Best street to his little home that afternoon-he carried a heavy heart and a face that told of deep humiliation and bitter disappointment. 'We were getting along so well,' he sa'd to Hattie, 'and I thought I could make the last payment on the place this year, and now He did not say any more, but his teeth shut to- gether like a vice and the set look on his face grew harder, Is there one woman in ten thousand who would have done just as Hattie did? She saw and appreciated his feelings, and with a smile such as only a loving woman can wear she took his face in her hands, and looking into h's eyes, said: 'Never mind, pet; we'll get along all right, and it will be better for you to have work out of doors, Be brave and patient.' It takes so much to make some men forgive, and some of them never for: get. : Morose and melancholy by turns, silent and owpatural Henry Wilson went about his work Whenever there was a report of trouble he was to be found.

He finally told me that nothing could Le done for me as my age was aguinst me, and that I could not live loug. Then I tried medicines given me by a Tilsouburg | druggist, but to no avail. A year ago last | full we moved to the tollgate. The sores | kept growing more and more painful and | I tried everything that anyone recommended, but nothing did me any good. and everyone who saw me was of the 'opinion that I'conid not get better. A physician, formerly practising at Port Stanley, was then called in and treated me for about four months. He said he had never seen anything like my case in the whole coarse of lis practice, and said the | sores were ulcers. At this time the sores formed a complete ring around my ankle and up the leg for about four inches. The effusion from the sores was like water, and three or fout heavy cloths rolled around them would soon get wet, and the water would run down into my slippers. Lhe burning, stinging and twitehing was some- he at. the bed clothes on ny limbs because of the burning sensation. The longer the hysician attended me the worse I seemed to ecome, Then my son sent for another doétor; He did not say what was the mat fer, but that I could not be cured. At this time my husband strongly urged me to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and although ntter- ly discouraged I began taking them in Nov., 1892. After I had taken four boxes the stinging pains in the sores began to stop and the effusion of water veased. 1 continued taking the Pink Pills until Thad taken | twelve boxes, avd as you now sce, I am en- tively cured.

I went down to Tilsouburg on a visit recently and my children and old friends and ueigh- bors could hardly credit that I was cured, but it is a joyful fact nevertheless." Mr. Cope was present during the inter- view with Tie wife and said: "I know that | every word my wife has said is true, and Loth of us are prepared to make affldavits to its trath at any time. She suffered so much with the sores that I thought she would go crazy. and had little hope that she would ever be cured. You may be certain that we are profoundly grateful for this wouderful remedy, and that we never pl lose an opportunity to say a good word for it. It has brought my wife health and strength after everything else hud failed, and we have reason to be deeply thankful."
