THOUGHT HE WAS DYING.
HOW DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS SAVED A MAN'S LIFE.
Few more startling stories than that of Mr. William Jackson, 41 Castle-street, New Cier, Grimsby, are known to medical history. When the Doctors gave him up for lost his wife sent for a Clergyman, who ministered to him in what he thought were his dying moments.

Why can Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do this? The answer is simple and scientific. They can cure what ordinary medicine cannot cure.
BECAUSE THEY MAKE NEW BLOOD.
The ease with which the Japanese forces captured Port Arthur in their last war has possibly encouraged them to attempt to re- pest the venture, and if they should suc ceed nonin the position of Russia would be perilous to the last degree, General Kura. patkin declared not long ago that Port Arthur was impregnable, and that the fortress was pre- pared to stand a siege for two years.

Anemia is such a disease. Anemia is simply lack of blood. The imprenability.

"Two years and three months after the first stroke a pamphlet was one day put under the door, and in it was as account of how someone in Grimsby had been cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I decided to give them a trial. After taking the first bottle i was able to walk down the street, and also to keep my food on my stomach, which I had not been able to do for some time. I took one bottle a week, and in a few weeks 1 was able to resume work. I attribute my cure solely to the pills. I have recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to SOAP AND SODA MANUFACTURERS, several friends, and they have derived great benefit from them. They are a splendid tonic."
