alminel me and told me the same thing. In
March, 1890, | was taken to st. Peters Hos
pital i'll Albany, where Prof. ii. Ii. Hun
frankly told my wife my case was hopeless;
that he could do nothing for meanl that she
had better take me back home and save my
money. But | wanted to make a trial of
Prof. Huns famous skill and | remained
under his Treatment for nine weeks, but Sc
cured no benefit. All this time | hal been
growing worse. | had become entirely

lartly lost control CT my hands. The pain
was terrible; my legs felt as though they
were freezing and my stomach would not re-

In the Albany Hospital they put seventeen

there was no hope for me, | was brought

soon come to relieve me Of my sutferings.
Last September, while in this helpless and
suffering condition., a friend of mine III

statement of one John Marshall, whose case
had been similar to my owl. and who had
been cured by the use of DR.. Williams Pink

thought | would try them, and my wife sent
for two boxes OF the pills, AMI L took them
