the mont business men in is Mr Nappy the well known Perth street grocer Mr Nappy is an Englishman by birth and the success he has achieved in business here has enabled him for sev eral summers past to make an annual holiday trip to the Motherland In a casual conversation with some in the Bank of Montreal recently Dr Williams Pink Pills happened to be mentioned and Mr Nappy said that if the pills effected many cures as as that had come un der his notice he was not surprised that they were frequently the theme of conversation Asked later by a repot ter of the to give the story Mr Nappy readily consent ed to do so and we give it practically in his own words Dont be disap pointed when I tell you that the cure did not occur in this country said Mr Nappy As a matter of fact it occurred in England and came under ray observation on the occasion of two visits to that country During the summer of 1898 I paid a visit to my old homo in and while there visited William Ledger a relation of mine living at street In Ledgers family was a little girl Lilly about six years of age who was absolutely helpless with what the doctors said was St Vitus dance but really seemed to me more like paralysis This child was one of the most pitiful sights I ever saw more helpless than a new born babe She could not a single limb and if the head were turned to one side or the other it remained in that position until someone changed it The poor child had to be fed and looked after like an infant and as the doctors had not been able to do anything to re lieve her recovery was not thought possible- Indeed I said to the childs grandmother that I thought its early death would be relief not only to the child but to its parents This was the condition of trie child when I left for Canada Again in the sum mer of I made a holiday trip to England and to my amazement I visit ed my friend Ledger I found Lilly as bright and active a child as one would find anywhere with absolutely no trace of the trouble that had made her a helpless burden the year before I told her parents I had never ex pected to see her alive again and ask ed what had effected her cure Dr Pink Pills said the father He further said that returning from work one night he found in the house a little book describing the pills left during the day and after reading it decided to use them in Lilys case After supper he bought some of the pills and gave the first to the child that night In a few days they saw they were helping her and in less than two months time there was not a child in the neighborhood brighter healthier or more active I have heard a great deal concerning what Dr Williams Pink Pills have done in this but this case coming un der my own observation is as near a miracle as we can looked for in these days and shows why Dr Wiiliams Pink Pills are so much talked about everywhere Dr Williams Pink Pills are just as valuable in the case of children as with adults and puny little ones would soon
