Williams' Pink Pills Restores Him to Health. From the Shelburne Economist. The completion of the local telephone service between Shelburne and Homing’s Mills by Messrs. John Metcalfc and IV. H. Blarlatt, referred to in these columns recently, was the means of bringing to the notice of a reporter of the Economist the fact of the remarkable restoration to health some time ago of Mr. Vietcalfe, the chief promoter of the line. For about two years Mr. Mctcalfe was a terrible eufi'erer from sciatica, and unable to work. While not altogether bedfast, be was so badly crippled that his bent form, as he occasion- ally hobbled about the streets of Horning'e Mills, excitel universal sympathy. The trouble was in one of his hips and he could not stand or walk erect. His familiar attitude, as the residents of Horn. lug’s Mills can vouch, was a stooped our “ wanna» m a s’roornn posrrms.” position, with one hand on his knee. Mr. Metcalfe says:-â€"”For about two years I was not able to do any work. Local physi- cians failed to do me any good, and I went to Toronto for treatment, with equally unsatifaoiory results. I also tried elec- trical appliances without avail. I returned home from Toronto discouraged, and said that I would take no more medicine, that it. seemed as if I had to die anyway. My system Was very much run down and the pains at times were excruciating. 1 adâ€" hered for several months to my determi- nation to take no more medicine but finally consented to a trial of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills strongly recommended by a friend. Before I had taken them very long I felt a great deal better, my appetite returned,’ and the pains diminished. After using the pills for some time longer I was able to stand and walk erect and resume my work, In the full enjoyment of health and strength. People who know me marvelled at the change,- and on my personal recommend- ation many have used Pink Pills. This is the first time, hawtver, that I have given the facts for publication.” On being asked if the sciatica had ever returned, Mr. Metcalfe stated that once or twiceastheresultofunusualexposure,hehad experienced slight attacks but he always kept some of the pills at hand for use on such occasions, and they never failed to fix him up all right. Mr. Metcalfc, who is 52 cars of age, is in the flour and provision usiness, and. as proof of his ability to do as good a day’s work as he ever did in his life, we may state that the most of the work connected with the erection of his six miles of telephone line was performed by himself. Mr. Motcalfo also mentioned several other instances in which the users of Pink Pills derived great benefit, among them being that of a lady resident of Horning's Mills. The Economist knows of a number of instances in Shelburne where great good has followed the use of this woll~known remedy. The public are cautioned against im- itations and substitutes, said to be “ just as good." These are only oflered by some unscrupulous dealers because there is a larger profit for them in the imitation. There is no other remedy that'can success- fully tako the place of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and those who are in need of a medicine should insist upon getting the enuine, which are always put up in boxes mating the words “Dr. 'Nilliams’ Pink Pills for Pals People." If you cannot obtain them from your dealer. they will be sent post-paid on receipt of 50 cents a box, or $2 50 for six boxes, by addressing the Dr. Willlains' Medicine 00., Brockville, Out... or Schenectady, N. Y. A CAR FAMlNis. Western Railways Short of Rolling Stock to .Vlove the Crops. Long before the date originally thought possible there will be a car famine 0‘ igautic proportions throughout the West. fietween January 1 and the opening of navigation eastern roads will have much more business otlcrod them than they can , ossibly handle. Certainly by December; , and possibly by November 15, Western ’ roads Will have every available car In use hauling grain toward Chicago, St. Louis or .' the South. The present demand for cam' in the “first is largely to market grain left? over from last year. Very few (3.115"! new corn have been received in Chicago and! the movement of this year’s crop wzl‘: notl become general until wall along in Dcccm- ' her. “’cstern lines can and operate ltlinut, 150,000 cars capable of carrying gram. Coupled together these cars would make a train nearly 1000 mics long. According to railroad computation, it will take il'is enormous train, running ly picceinral on‘ all the roads of the west, nearly or qu to nine months to haul all Iii-c grain to market. The only place in the country where- there is a genuine car famine is in Pennsyl- , vania. For nearly two months cars have. been at a premium and as much scheming is now done by the coal, iron and steel men for cars as they formerly did for cut rates. They are only too Willing now, not only to pay tariff rain, but are freely offering bonuses for cars to cllicisls wno can influence their movements. .~\; several . local points on its line the Lake Shore has a shortage of can and the Grand Trunk and Wabash are shcri in Chicago. . These shortages by no means compare wuh ‘ the (stains in Pennsylvania, and there :s' no danger of a mi famzno ui‘ blockade of trellis on eastern lines until January at host.

Prank Smith a 16-year-old boy of Bufâ€" falo lies at the Fitch Hospital with a mouth organ in his stomach. He swallow- ed the instrument early in the night, and before the surgeons could examine him it had passed through the trachea into the boy's digestive organ. Early Monday night he and a number of boys of hisege gathered in front of John G. Avery’s saloon and grocery at 797 Abbott road. They were joking and wrest- ling with each other, when young Smith took from his pocket is little toy mouth organ about two inches long and an inch wide. He began to play on it. His com- ions were greatly amused. They asked him to play a lively jig, and they would dance a clog or two. Young Smith struck up " The Irish Washerwomen.” The boys were dancing with great vigor when they saw young Smith make signs to them to stop. He was greatly excited and beg an to turn pale. The boys stop and ran to him. in great agony. The mouth organ had slipped out of his fingers and had lodged in his windpipe. They hurriedly took him to a doctor near by, but the doctor was not in, so they started for the Fitch Hospital. On the way to the Hospital young Smith began to feel better. The organ had edged down into the windpipe and he breathed easier. Still 'he was decidedly uncomfortable. At the hospital he was laid on the oper- ating table and Dr. Parmenter was sent He was under the influence of chloroform while waiting for the doctor. Dr. Parmenter saw when he arrived that the case was a serious one, but all efforts on his part to locate the obstacle were of no avail. Probes of all sizes were' inserted into the boy’s windpipe, but the organ could not be found. He was of the opinion that the organ had lodged in the stomach. Popular Christian Names. An account has been taken in Austria: Hungary of the Christian names of persons in the Empire. The name of Francis heads the list with 1,834,000 then come 4,384,000 persons who rejoice in the name of John ; then Joseph. which numbers 1,085,000; Leopold has 584,000 admirers, and Weuces- laus 441,000. Of the Christian names of women, Auna' rules supreme in Austria with nearly 2,000,000 ; then comes Marie with 1,652,000 and Elizabeth has place with 1,260,000 admirers. WE -...â€"........-_»_.

THE ONLY REMEDY THAT CURES.

Lum- ber alert-hunt, Was Tried. and Disease was In a Short Time liniiished . EDICINES for the sick are not ‘wanting. They are about as plentiful as mos- quitoes in Mus- kcka, and some- times just as useless and an- noying. But . , there isaserious ~ side to the mat- ter. Whyshould those who are broken down in health, weak and wearied, and nigh unto death often, have their con. dition aggravated by remedies that do them no good. Sometimes, as Mr. Ephraim Tallmau, who is a retired farmer, highly respected in the c mniunity, and now liv- ing in Merrickville, has said, temporary relief is secured. But the reaction that comes from disappointment is apt to set the patient back further than he was be- fore. The feature of South American Nerviue is its permanent healing powers. It is a medicine which strikes at the root of dis- ease, curing the deranged parts at the nerve centres, and these cured, disease cannot exist. _ Mr. Tallman found this to be the case. He says :â€"-“ Two years ago this fall I had an attack of La Grippe, and I have never been well since. My bowels, I may say, became perfectly dormant, and I tried a great many medicines, and got just tem- orsry relief. But it was very temporary. lr. E. Errett, lumber merchant. of this town, advised me to try South American Nervine, and I must, and can, truthfully say that I have received more benefit from it than from all the other remedies I have ever taken. I can honestly recommend it, as I consider it an excellent remedy. 1 know nothing better. I am a much better man since taking this remedy than for a number of years, and 1 give this testimony fn-ely of my own accord. wishing South American Nervine the success it deserves.” H Antonio Maximo More is at proson' sojourning in how York, when: his so“ i:= an elevated railroad umployc.
