A Lawyer’s Testimony.From the Herald, Potsdam, JV. F. |George Boardman Stagey, of Nioholville, J Rt. Lawrence County, New York, ha* for j many years ranked as one of the brightest lawyers In Northern New York and for the I past twenty years has been the acknowledged i leader of politics in the east end of this great J county* Mr. Btacey was admitted to the bar ? in 1865, and up to October, 1805, continued j to practice his profession. Ail this time, however, the strain of active political work had been undermining his once iron eon.-'ti- ; tution, and during this month of October ! buttered a stroke of paralysis which left him j practically helpless. For weeks he was in a jterrible condition, the efforts of the doctors proving of no avail. All at once he began to recover, however, and was soon seen about ; town again, frequenting his former hauntsand shaking hands with his old friends and acquaintances. His rapid recovery was the talk of the town, and a reporter hearing o?, the wonderful cure decided to visit Mr. Stacey and ascertain if possible its cause.Mr. Stacey was inclined to be communica* tive, and the following is his story of his illness and cure:#,I was presiding over a political meeting and had just arisen to give a friend who was to address the meeting a rousing sendoff, when to my astonishment I discovered I could not talk. My tongue seemed paralyzed. I managed to say a few words, now* ever, and took my seat where by shear will power I managed to sit until the meeting was finished. On arising to go home, how- j ever, I found I could not *alk and seemed | to have Io3t control of my limb*. I was assisted home, but on feeling better in the morning I went down to my office. Here I suffered another shock which left me flat on my back. I finally recovered sufficiently to get up, but was left a complete physical wreck. I could not half talk or guide myself at all. I could not write or even hold a ! pen, and was unable to transact any bust- j ness. I was like a drunken man ana went j staggering about. j4*The doctors did all thev could for me but i still I failed to improve. I had always been greatly oppose 1 to patent medicines in any j form, but on the recommendation of my druggist, Ira H. Smith, I finally decided to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People a trial and see if they would do me any good. To my great surprise I began to notice an improvement before I had taken half a box, and by the time I had taken three boxes I felt like a new man. As nothing else seemed to help me I lay my recovery to the Pink Pills for Pale People. On going to Newark, New Jersey, in April, I gave up : taking the pills, and have not since returned to using them, although I am confident they are a splendid thing, and I will probably use them again.”Mr. Stacey's remarkable case is but one of a thousand others which have been cured by these magic pills where all else had failed.Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a con- ; densed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves.
