F*cf? About the Pineapple Industry
?The "Pines" Are Propagated in
Three Ways.
I
OWING to the rapid growt 1 of !
pineapple cultivation in the
Sooth these fruits are no lo ngei
considered luxuries, N< ?rth
erners using then? in the summer as the/
h wculd their native products. The \ >ine
apple season begins in February, \ rhen
the first foreign shipments are rnide,
and from that time until the last of
August nearly 5,000,000 "pines" are
disposed of in the United States'. On
the Island of Cuba the fruits ripen earlier
than elsewhere, and growers there ;on
trol the markets until the firit'week in
Ma y, when the Florida and Bal ama
pineapples begin to arrive. Later smaller
shipments are made from Ceitral
America, but these never reach very higb
figures. All of the fiuit is shi jped
direct to New York:, aad half-a-dozen
l*rge dealers in that city practically con
trol the trade. On thfe arrival of the
Ui lit it is bought up by them in b ulk,
and the prices are fixed according ta the
condition ol the market. ' Pineaj >ples
are generally sorted over at first land
divided into three lots, "extras," ? o. 1
add No: 2.
-The spring of the year is the time to
inspect the pineapple-fields where the
fruits are just reaching maturity, f >r at
such tsmes one may expect to find ii Lter
estiog sights if ever. When the "pi nes"
begin to mature in Florida, the oranges
and grape-fruit have ' long since
gathered, and blossoms are on the
for next season's crop. The ban anas
have also been picked, and the sialics
have been cut down, or "pruned," a nl?e
work would be called in the N >rth.
Along the Indian River apd Key Vest
pineapple culture has beedpae a lea ling
industry, and thousands of the fruit ? are
[ -annually gathered for the home mar sets.
'The climate near Key West, and ia the
southern tier of counties is about the
same as in the Bahamas, and the s indyaj
soil is thoroughly adopted to the c ulti
vation of the "pines." The fruits are
planted , and they take, care of tiem
selves with buC little outside attar tion.
The plants are largely air-plants , and
they greatly resemble in appe&ranc e the
"air-pines" which grow so thickly upon
the tall cypress trees of the F! orida
hammocks. In fact, the pineappl > was
originally propagated >and deve opei
from these so-called "air 'pines," which
many visitors in the Soath carry home
with them, and which, if nailed upon
the side of the house aad barn, wil I live
npon air and water for an indefinite
time.
been
trees
Pineapples are propagated in three
ways ? irom the "crowns," "suckers"
or "slips," which, though used by some
writers as oce and the same, are! very
different. The crowns grow on thie top
of the fruit, the stipe start oat beneath
the bas* of the fruit at its junction with
the stem, and the suckers rise from the
stem at the junction with the root.
Taken altogether, about ten suckers,
slips and browns can be obtained from
one plant, and these are sold*at"t?e rate
of a fe x dollars per thousand. " From a
five-acre plantation another plantation
several times large* can be plaoted in on^
season. This, rapid method at propjP*
gating the plants make the industry com
paratirely easy of extension. Nearly all
the planters put out new fields every
year, provided they have the land at
hand, bat most of the best pineapple soil
in favorable localities has been pur
chased and the price advanced.
From 10,000 to 15,000 pineapples can
be planted to the acf^and in from
eighteen months to two yenrsSJter plant
ing the slips the plants prodube trait.
The plants need little cultivation^ after
the suckers have once set, but th^top
soil requires a little stirring in ord?
present tct> rapid evaporation of
moisture. Every sucker, slip, or crown}
if propepy matured, wrtl produce one
fine i>ineappie,and each grower expects to
realize five cents apiece for the lruit after
transportation rates, cost of package, and
commissions have been deducted. This
means f5'JV per acre, but some af tbe~
jgbweesr varieties sell for much higher
Hp*5ce.?, so.%Jat from |700 to" $1000 is
Realized. V
/ The suckers are planted in rows three
[ feet apart JMflierNeay during the rainy
\season in August, a*4 during June and
^uly the <rops are har^sted. The pine
apples^re cut off close to the main stalk
with a sharp knife, and tne thick pointed
leaves are trimmed sc^hat the fruit-can
be packed easily. They are generolly
packed in barrels, from twenty-five to
thirty "extras'' in a barrel, or forty to
sixty small ones. Almost any kind of
barrel will answer t&e purpose, but the
large sugar- barrels'3 are the best, as they
do not cost any more for transportation.
After the pines begin to come into the
market the supply is steady, although
some dealers attempt to hold bacfc their
fruit until the buik is dispose! of.
Florida cannot compete in the eariy
market, for the Cuban pines are always
ahead'of her, but she is gradually mo
nopolizing toe trade in June an<V July.
When the rapid increase in the cultiva
tion ot the fruit, Florida will in time
supply all of the heftne trade, driving
! out the imported fruits. ? New York

The wonderful feats of East Indian

none are more surprising than thkt for
^ which an old seadog, now lying at the
water front, vouches. While he was an
officer on board the P. and O. steamers
two natives came- aboard at Madras, he
says. They were a juggler and fiis as

number of minor feats and gathered
quite a crowd around them, they called
for a sack and piece of tail -clothl.
These having been provided, the chief
juggler made a smail tent-like structure

Philippiansii., 9.
Paul is here making rapturous and en
thusiastic description of the name of Christ.
There are merely worldly names that some
times thrill yon ttiiagh and throaph. Sucb
was the name of H airy Clay to a Kentuck
ian, the name of W ffiiam Wirt to a Virgin
ian, the came of Daniel Webster to a New
Englander.
By common proverb we have come to be
lieve thafeHhere is nothing in a name;" and
so pirenrt^bme times at the baptismal altar
gives, titles to their children reckless of the
fact that that title, that name, will be a life
time hindrance or a lifetime help. Yon
have no right to give your child a name
lacking either in euphonyflr moral mean
fng
It is a sin to call a child Jehoiakim or
Tlgliith-pileaer? or by anything that is disa
greeable. Because you nave had an exas
peraiang name yourself is no reason why
you should inflict it upon your progeny.
And yet bow often it is that we see a name
full of jargon rattling down from generation
to generation simply because a long while
ago some one happened to be afflicted with
it. Institutions and great enterprises some
times without sufficient deliberation take
nom<?nclature. Mighty destinies have been
decided by a name. While we may by a
long course of Christian behavior get over
the misfortune of having been baptized with
the name of a despot or a cheat, now much
better it would have been if we could have
all started life without any such incum
brance!
When Paul, in my text and in other pas
sages of Scripture, Durst forth in aspirations
of admiration for the name of Christ, I want
to inquire what are the characteristics of
that appellation, ''The name which is above
every name." In the first place, speaking to
you m regard to the name of Christ, I want
to tell you it h an easy name. You are
sometimes introduced to people with long
and tmpromranceable names, and you have
to hi ten cautiously to get the names, and
you havejjf hear them pronounced two or
before you risk trying to utter
them, but within the first two years the lit
tle child folds if* hands and looks upward
. and says "Jesus i* ?
Can it be that in all this church this morn
a there are representatives of any house
1 where the children are familiar with the
names of the father and mother and brother
and sister, yet know nothing about "that
name which' is above every namef Some
times you forget the name of a quite familiar
friend, and you have to think and think be
fore you get it? bet can you imagine any
freak of intellect by which you shouktfor- ,
Set the name of Jesus? That word seefns to*?j
t the tongue in every dialect. Down to old
age, '*hen the voice is tremulous and uncer
tain and indistinct, even thai this regal
word finds potent utterance.
When an aged father was dying one of
the children came and said, Father, do
you know me?" and in th9 delirium of the
lent sickness he said, "No, I don't know
yon." Another child came and said,
^'Father, dp you know mef "No,s he sand,
"I don't know you." Then the village peg
tor oimein and said, "Don you know m vr
He said, "No; I don't think lever saw you."
Then said .the minister, VDo you know
Jesmif "Oh, yes P' said thwdying man, '1
know Jesut; Chief among ten thousand is
He, and the One altogetherTovely." Yes,
for afl agee and far all languages, and for all
conditions is an easy name.
Jesus, I love Thy charming name,
Us music to my ear;
Fain wontd I sound it oat so load
That heaven and earth might hear.
But I remark farther in regard to this
name of Christ, that it is a beautiful name.
Now you have noticed that you cannot dis *
associate a same from the-character of the
person who has it. There are some names,
for instance, that are repulsive to my ear.
Those names are attractive to your ear.
What is the difference? Why, I happened
to know some persons of that name who
were cross or sour, or queer or unsympa
thetic, and the persons you have happened
to know of that name were kind, and genial.
Since, then, we cannot disassociate a name
from the character of the person who has
the name, consideration makes the
name of J esSfewpea^ably beautiful.
I cannot pronounce the name in your
present but you^biuk of Bethlehem and
Gethsemane and Golgotha, and you see His
loviag face, and youfcear His lender voice,
and you feel His gentle tmrch . As soon as
I pronounce His name in your presence you
think of Him who banqueted with heavenly
prcbs. yet came down and breakfasted
le fish which the rough man hauled out
mesaret; you think of Him who, though
the clouds are the dust of Bis feet, walked
footsore on the road to Einmaus.
& cannot speak His name in your hearing
this moring, bat yon think right awav of
the shining one who restored the centurion's
daughter, and who helped the blind man to
sunlight, and who made the cripple's crutch
useless, and who looked down into the laugh
ing eyes of the babe until it struggled to go
jloJEim; then, flinging His arms around it.
easing a kiss upon its beautiful
brow, such is the kingdom of
heaven."
0!b, beautiful narae^tbe name of Jesus,
which stands for love, for patience, for selc
sacrifice, for, magnanimity, for everything
that is good ana glorious and tender and
sympathetic and kind! It is aromatic with
all odors. It is accordant with ail narmonies.
Sometimes when I look at that nam; of
Jesus Christ it see ns as if the letters were
made of tear?, ani then they seem to ba,
gleaming crowns. Sometimes that name
seems to be twisted out of the straw on
which He lay, and then it ssems to be built
out of the thrones on which His psople are
to reign. Sometimes 1 sound that word
Jesus, and 1 hear in it the sob of Gethsemane
and the groan of Calvary, and then I speak
His name and it is all a ripple with gladness
and a ring with bosanna. Glorious name!
Take all the glories of bookbinderv and
put them around the page on which that
name is printed. On Christmas morning
wreathe it on the wall. Let it drip 5 rom
harp's string and let it thunder-out in organ's
diapason. Sound it often, sound it well, un
til every star shall seem to shine it, and every
flower shall seem to breathe it, and mount
ain and sea, and day and night, and earth
and heaven acclaim in lull chant, "Blessed
be His glorious name forever." "The name
which is above every name."
Have you ever heard in a Methodist
church, during a time of revival, a scoreof
souls oometo the altar and cry out for mercy
uader the power of just two lines of glorious
old John Wesley '5

. Other dominions seem to be giving way;
France had to give up some of her favorite
provinces; S{;ain has lost a great deal of her
power; many of the thrones of the world
are being lowered; many of the scepters of
the world are being shortened, but every
tract distributer, every Bible printer, every
Christian institntion establish? 1 spreads
abroad, the n^girty name of Christ It has
already beea heara^inder the Chinese wall,
and in the Siberian anow castle, and in the
Brazilian grove ani ;in the eastern pagoda.
That name will swal^bw up all other names.

But I remark again, taking a step forward
in this subject, that the name of Christ is
ah enduring name. You get over the fence
of tli% graveyard and you pull tire weeds
back from the name that ha? nearly faded
from the tombstone, and you wjsb that
Walter Scott's "Old Mortality" would come
along and rechisel it so that you might really
find out what the name is. Why, that was the
name of the greatest man. in all the town, in
all the country, in all tba/State, now almost
faded from tbe tombstone . ^
And so the greatest names of this world I
either have perished or are perishing.
Gregory VI.. Bancho ot Spain, Conrad I. of
Germany, Richard I. of England. Catherine
of Russia. Those names were once mighty,
and they made the earth tremble. Who
cares for them now? None so poor as to do
them reverence. But the name of Christ is
enduring forever. It will be preserve! in
the worfcfs fine art. There will be other 1
Belli nis to sketch the Madomw, and other 1
Ghirlandaajos to present the baptism of
Christ, and other Bronzinos to show Christ
visiting the spirits in prison, , and other
Giottos.to appal the vision with the Cruci
fixion. It will be preserved in the world's
literature. v
There will be other Alexander Popes to .
write the ".Messiah," and other Dr. Youugs
to celebrate His triumph, and other Cow
pers to sing His love. * It will be preserve I
in the world's grand ami elaborate archi
tecture, and Protestinism shall yet have itj
St. Mali's and its St. Peter's. It shall ba
preserved in the world's literature, for there
will be other Paleys to write the "Evidenc?s
of. Christianity.'' More than all, it will be
embalmed in the hearts of all the good of
earth and all the great ones of heaven .
Shall the emancipated bondsman ever for
get who set him free? - Shall the blind roan
ever forget the Divine Physician who gave
him sight? Shall the lost and wandering
ever forget who brought them home?
Why, to make the world forget that name !
wonld be to burn up all the Bibles ani burn
dowirall the churches, and then in the spirit
of universal arson go through tbe gate of
heaven and pgt the torch JjJUl tbe temples
and mansions 'and palaces until in the awful
conflagration all heaven went down and the
people come out to look upon the charred
ruins; but even then ttjej would hear th?
name of Christ in the thunder of falling
towers and in the orash or temub walls, anci
.see it interwoven into the flying banners of
flame, and the redeemed of heaven would
say, "Let the temoles an t the palaces burn
let them burn ; we have Jesus left." Blessed
be His glorious name forever. "The name
which is above every name."
My friends, have you made up your mind
by what name you will accost Christ when
you see Him in heaven? Now that is a prac
tical question. For you will see Him, child !
or God. justas certainly as you sitthure aud
I stand here. By what name have youmade
up your mind to call Cbrist when you first
meet Him in heaven? WH you c-tll Him
-."Anointed One," or ^Messiah?" or will you
take some one of the symbolic terms which
you read in your Bible on earth? terms by A
which Christ was designated?
Some day perhaps you will be wandering
among the gardens of God on high, the p'ace
abloom with eternal springtime, infinite lux
ury of lily an \ rose and amaratb, and pgr
baps-you will look up into the face of Christ
and say, "My Lord, Thou art the Rose of
Sharon and the Lily of the Valley." Some
fame there will be a new sou! come into

!THE SARATOGA MIBAOLE
rVXTHEK INVESTIGATED BY AN EX
PRESS REPORTER
The Facts Already Stated Fully Co*
FIRIIED? INTERVIEWS WlTH LiADIVQ
Physicians Who Treated Quast
?The Most Marvelous Case ^
ly the Bibtort or Medi
cal Science.
A few weeks ago an article appeared in
this jAper copied from the Albany, N. Y.,
Journal, giving the particulars of one of the
most remarkable cures of the 19th oeatary.
Tbe article was under the heading "A
Saratoga Co. Miracle," and excited such
widespread comment that another Albany
' paper? the Express? detai led a reporter to
make a thorough investigation of the state
ments appearing in the Journal's article.
The facts as elicited by the Express reporter
sire given in the ioliowing article, which ap
id in that paper on April 16th, and
e one af the most interesting stories
ever related r
A few weeks ago there was published in
the JJbany Evening Journal the story of a
most remarkably? indeed so remarkatfte as
to wtsll justify the terra ' 'miraculous'1 ?cure
of a severe case of locomotor ataxia, or
creeping paralysis? simply by the use of
Pink Pills fsr Pale People, and, in oomply
ance with instructions, an Express Reporter
has been devoting some time in a critical
investigation of the real facts of the case.
The story of tbe wonderful cure of Charles
A. Quant, of Gal way, Saratoga County,
N. y? as first told in the Journal, has
been copied into hundreds if not thousands
of other daily and weekly newspapers and
has created such a liensation throughout the
entire country that it was deemed a duty
due nil the people, and especially the thou
sands of similarly afflicted, that the state
ments of the case as made in the Albany
Journal, and , copied into so many other
newspapers should, if true, be verified; or,
if false, exposed as an imposition upon public
credulity.
Tie result of the Exnress reporter's in
vestigations authorizes him in saying that
the story of Charles A. Quant's cure of
locomotor ataxia by the use of Pink Pills
for Pale/People, a popular remedy prepared
and pat up by the Dr. Williams Medicine
Company, Morristown, N. Y.; and Brock
vilie, Ontario, IS TRUE, anJ that all its
statements are not only justified but verified
by the fuller development of the farther
facts of tbe case.
Perhaps the readers of the Express are
not all of them fully familiar with the de
tails of this miraculous restoration to health
of a man who after weeks and months of
treatment by th* most skillful doctors in
two of the best hospitals in the State of New
York? tbe Roosevelt Hospital in New York
City and St. Peter's Hospital in Albany
was dismissed from each as incurable and,
because tbe case was deemed incurable, the
man was denied admission into several oth
ers to which application was made in his be
half. The story as told by Mr. Qoant him
self and published. in the Albany Journal, is
as follows: v
"My name is Gnarles A. Quant: I am 37
years old; I was born in the Tillage of Gal
way and excepting while traveling on busi- ,
ness and a little while in Amsterdam, have
spent my whole life here. Up to about eight,
jeais ago I had nevtr been sick and was
theti in perfect health. I was fully six feet
tall, weighed 180 pounds and was very
?troog. For 13 years was traveling gaies
mati for a piano and organ company, and
Sf1, t?.^5Jr at l6?81 did ??? a deal of
nea ry lifting, got my meals vary irregularly
and slept in enough 'spare beds' in coun
try houses to freeze an ordinary man to
dealih, or at least give Jiim the rheuma
toaa.. About eight years ago 1 began to
feel distress in my stomach, and consulted
several doctors about it. They all said it
was dyspepsia, and for dyspepsia I was
tree.ted by various doctors in different
places, and took ail the patent medicines I
oou d bear of that claim? I to bo & cur? for
dyspepsia. But 1 continued to grow srrad
ually worse for four years. Then r began
to lave pain in my back and legs andbe
came conscious that my leg$ were getting
we?Jr and my step unsteady; and then I
stofigered when I walked. Having received
t?o i^eneflt from the use of patent medicines,
and reeling that I was constantly growing
woi-se, 1 then, upon advice, began the use of
? dec trie belts, paas and aU the many different
kinds of electric appliances I could hear of,
?ncl spent hundreds of dollars lor th&L but
they did me no good. (Here Mr. - Quant
?ho wed the Journal reporter an electric suit
or underweaivfor which he paid S124 ) In
the fall of 1888 the doctors ad v teed a caanee
of climate, so 1 wtat to Atlanta, Ga? and
acted as agent for the Estey Organ Com
pany. W hiJe there I took 'a thorough elec
tric treatment, but it only s?emed to aggra
vate >my disease, and the only relier I boold
gel. from the sharp and distreesing pains was
to take morphine. The pain was so in
terse at times that it seemed as though I
could not stand it, and I almost longed for
deiith asthe only certain relief. In Septem
ber of 1888 my legs gave out entirely and my
left eve was drawn to one side, so that I had
double sight and was dizzy;- My trouble so
affected ray whole "hervous system that I
to give up business . Then I returned to
New \ ork and went to the Rooaevel: Hoe
ilaJ, '*here for four months I was treat*!
y specialists and they pronounced my fiae
locomotor ataxia and iacurable. .After I
a under treatment b7 Prof. Starr
and Dr. YV are for .'our months," thev told me
they had done ail they couli for me. Then
I went to the New York Hospital on Fif
teenth street, where, upon examination, they
?aid 1 was incurable and would not take me
In. At the Presbyterian Hospital they ex
amined me and told me the same thing. Tn
March, 18gfc I was ta'ien to St. Peter's Hos
pital in Albany, where Prof. H. H. Hun
frankly told my wife m^ase was hopeless;
that he could do nothing Rft- me and that she
.had better take me bac!t home and sare my
money But I wanted to make a trial of
] Hun s famous skill and I remained
ur: ler his treatment for nine weeks, but se
cured 110 benefit. . All this time I ha 1 been
growing worse. I had become entirely
paralyzed from my waist down an i had
{ artlylost control of my hands. The pain
was Iqjrible; my legs felt as though they
were freezing and my sto-nach would not re
tain food, and 1 fell away to 120 pounds.
In the Albany Hospital they put seventeen
bigJtrarns on my back one day with rei hot
irons, and after a few days they put fourteen
more burns on and treated fne with elec
tricity, but I got worse rather than -better;
lost control of my* bowels and water, an-ll
apon advice of the doctor, who said
there was no hope for me, I was brought
home, where it was thought that death would
scon come to relieve me of my sufferings
j Last September, while in this helpless and
suffering condition, a friend of mine in
Hamilton, Ont., called my attention to the
statement of one John Marshall, whose case
had been similar to ray own. and who had
i been cured by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink
P lis for Pale People. In this case Mr. Mar
shall, who is a prominent member of the
Royal Templars^jf 1'einperance, had, after
fcur years of constant treatment by the
most eminent Canadian physicians, " been
pronounced incurable, and paid the $1600
, total disability claim allowed by the order in
such cases. Some months alter Mr. Mar
?hall began a course of treatment with Dr.
^Williams' Pink Pills, and after taking some
boxes was fully restored to health. I
thought I would try them, and mv wife sent
for two boxes of the pills, an 1 I 'took them
accor line to the directions on the wrapper
. on eacb box. For the Jirst few days the
cold baths were prett/ severe as I was so
, very weak, but I continueJ to follow m
srructions as to taking the pUis aad the
treatment, and even before I had m
the two boxes of the pills 1 begas to Cm
fcer e^.cial results from them. Hyjmtmww
not so bad. I felt warmer; mj heat Ml
! better; my food began to reliA aod agree
i with me; I could straighten up; the feel in?
j began to come back into my limbs; I be

To verify Mr . Quant's statement our re
porter a few dart ago, (March 31st. 1893,)
called on Dr. Allen Starr at his office. No.
22 West Twenty-eighth 8t., New York dty.
Dr. Starr is house physician of the Rooee
?elt hospital, situated corner of Ninth
arenne and Fifty-ninth street. In reply to
inquiry he said he remembered the case of
Mr. Quant very well, and treated him some, __
bat uut he was ohiefiy treated ani under
the more especial care of Dr. Ware. He
said he regarded this case as he did all cases
of locomotor ataxia as incurable. In order
that our reporter might get a coor of the
history or the casa ot Mr. Quint from the
hospital record he very courteously gave bim
a letter of which the following is a copy:? if
"Dr. M. A. Starr, 22 West Forty -eighth
street, office hours, 9 to 12 a. m.. New York,
March 31st, 1891? Dear Dr. Vought: If you
have any record of- a locomotor ataxia by
name of Quant, who says he came to the
dinic8 or 4 years ago^No. 14,037, of the 0.
D. Dept. Rooeevelt, sent to me from Ware,
will you let the bearer know. If you have
no record send hiat to Rooserelt Hosp.
Yours, St abb.
By means of this letter access to the rec
ords was permitted and a ti-anscript of the
history of Mr. Quant's case made from them
as follows:
"No. 14.037 Admitted September 16th,
1889. Charles A Quant, aged 34 years. Born
U. S. Married. Hoboken."
"History <Sf the case:? Dyspepsia for past
four or fire years. About 14 months' partial
loss of power and numbness in lower ex
tremities. Girdling sensation about abdo
men. (November 29th, ISs'O, not improve 1,
external strobismus of 4eft eye and dilata
tion of the left eye.) Soma difficulty in pass
ing water at times; no headache hut some
dizznees; alternate diarrhoea ani con^tipa
tion; partial ptosis past two we?ks in left
eye. ?
j "Ord. R. F. 8i pep. and Sola."
Tbeee are ths marked symptoms of a
severe case of locomotor ataxia. "And Dr.
Smut said a case with suet marked svmp
i toms could not be cured and Quant, who wa#
receiving treatment in the out-patient de
partment, was given up as incurable."
"There never was a case recovered in the
world." said Dr. Stgrr. Ani then said:
"Dr. Ware can tell you more about the casa
as Quant was under his more personal treat
ment. l am surprised, he said "that the
man is alive, asii thought be must be dead
long ago." *
Our reporter fbund Dr. )5dward Ware at
his office, No. 160 West Ninety -third street,
New York. He said: "1 have very distinct
recollections of th\ Quant case. It was a
very pronounced caije. l treated him about
eight months. This was in the early sum
mer of 1890. I deemed him incurable, and
thought him dead before ne w. Imagine my
surprise when I received a letter from him
about two weeks ago telling me that he was
alive, was getting well and expectei soon to
be fully recovered."
"What do you think, doctor, was the
cause of his recovery."
"That is more than I know. Quant says
he has been taking some eor t of pills and that
they have cured "him. At all events, I am
glad the poor fellow is gettinz well, for his
was a bad case' and he was a great sufferer"
Dr. Theodora R. Tattles ot 319 West
Eighteenth street, to whom our reporter is
indebted for acting
locomotor ataxitf; "I baye had sfvW^
cases of this disease in tbe course of my
practice. I will nbfc-Mty that it is incurable,
but L never knew of a case to get well} but I
will say it is not deemed, curable by any
remedies known to the medical profession."'
After this successful aad confirmatory in
vestigation in New York, our reporter,
Saturday, April 2d, 1892, visited St. Peter's
Hospital, in Albany, cernur of Albany and
Ferry streets. He had a courteous reception
by Sister Mary Phllomena, the sister
superior of St Peter's Hospital, and when
told of the object of his visit, said she remem
bered the case of poor Mr. Quant very dis
tinctly. Said she: "It was a very distress
ing case and elicited my sympathies much.
Poor fellow, he couldn't bo cured and bad to
go borne in a terrible condition of belpless
nesjjfftd suffering." The abuse physician, on
conSolting the records o' B c. Peter 7 Hospital,
said he found only that v'tiartas A. Quant
entered the hospital March 14th, l?9J, was
treated by Dr. Henry Hun, assisted by Dr. ,
Van Derveer, who was nhen, 1899, at the
head of the hospital, and that tiis case being
deemed not possible of cure, he left the
hospital and was taken to his home, as be
supposed to die.
Such is the full history of this most re
markable case ot successful recovery from a
heretofore supposed incurable disease, anl
after ail the doctors had given him up, by
the simple use of Dr. Williams' Pink ril.s
or Pale People. Truly it is an interesting
story of a most miraculous cure of a dreadful
disease by tbe simple uie ot this popular
remedy.
A further investigation revealed the fact
that Dr. Williatjas' Pink Pills are not a patent
medicine in the sense in which that term is
generally understood, but are a scientific
preparation successfully used in general
practice for many years before beiug offered
lo the public generally They contain in a
condensed form ail the elements necessary to
give new lifo and richness to the blood an I
restore shattered nerves, L'hey are an uu
fai ing specific for such diseases ag locomotor
ataxia, partial paralysis, tSt. Vitus dance,
I sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
j headache, the after effects of la grippe,

! complexions, that tired feeling resulting
I from nervous prostration; ail diseases
j depending upon vitiated bumors in the blood,
such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc.
They are also a soecific tor trouble* peculiar
to females, such as suppressions, irregulari
ties and all forms of weakness. Toey build
up the blood and restore the glow of health
to { ale or sallow cheeks. In the case of men
| they effect a radical cure in all cas??arising

On further inquiry tho writer found that
