AFTER httle general and preliminary CONVEX
satlon, aud after he had been appraised of the
object for which the Journal reporter had
called upon him. he, at request, told the
story OF himself ard OF his sickness and
terrible sunerings and of the Intellectual
treatment he had had, and of his final cure
bny the use of Or. Williamss Pink Pills for
rae People, and cheerfully gave assent to
lts use Tor publication. He SAID. MY name
is Charles A. QUAINT. am 81 years old. |
was born in the village of Galway. and. ex-
cePtlng while travelling on business and
little while IN Amsterdam, have spent nv
whole life here My wife is a native of
ontario Up to about eight years ago | had
never been sick and was then in perfect
health was fully six feet tall, weighed
IoO pounds and was very strong. For twelve
years was travelling salesman for piano
ana organ company and had to do or at least
dld do, great deal Of heavy lifting. got my
meals very irregularly ana slept in enough
spare beds in country houses to freeze any
ordinary man to death or at least give him the
rheumatism. About eight years ago began
10 Ieel distressed In my stomach and con-
suited several doctors about it, They all
SAID u was dyspepsia, and for dyspepsia |
was treated by various doctors in different
places, and took all the patent medicines |
could hear of that claimed to be cure for
dyspepsia. But continued to grow grad
fg,w. Fs.v..s
10 nave pain in my back and legs and became
conscious that my legs were getting weak
ana my step unsteady. and then staggered
when walked. Having received no benefit
from the use of patent medicines and feeling
that was constantly growing worse, then,
upon advice began the use OF electric belts,
pads and all the many different kinds Of
electric appliances could hear of, AMI spent
hundreds of dollars for them, but they did
me no good. Here Mr.. QUAINT showed the
journal reporter an electric suit of under
wear for which he paid SPA In the fall of
1898 the doctors advised change of climate
so went TO Atlanta, Ga, and acted as agent
Tor the Estey Organ Company. While there
took thorough electric treatment but it
only seemed to aggravate my disease, and
the only relief | could get from the sharp
and distressing pains was to take NOR
phlne. The pain was so intense at times
that 1t seemed as though | could not stand
II, and almost longed for death as the only
certain relief. In September of 1888 my
legs gave out entirely and my left eye was
drawn TO one side so that had
double sight and was dizzy. My
trouble so affected my whole nervous system
that had to give up business. Then | re
turned to New York and went to the Roose-
welt hospital, where for four months was
treated by specialists and they pronounced
my case locomotor ataxia and inctlrable.
After had been under treatment by Prof.
starr and DR.. Ware for four months they
told me they had done all they could for me.
Then went to the New York hospital on
rltteenth street, where, upon examination,
they said was incurable and would not take
me in. At the Presbyterian hospital they
examined me and told me the same thing.
In March, 1899, | was taken to st. Peters
hospital IN Albany, where Prof H. Fl. Hun
frankly told my wife my case was hopeless;
that he could do nothing for me and 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 | had been
growing worse. | had become entirely
paralyzed from my waist down and had
partly lost control of my hands. The pain
was terrible; my legs felt as though they
were freezing and my stomach would not re-
tain food, and fell away to 12) pounds
In the Albany hospital they put II big
burns on my back one day with red hot
irons, and after n few days they put II
more burns on and treated me with cleo
trlclty, but got worse rather than better;
lost control of my bowels and water and
upon advice of the doctor, who said there
was no hope for me, | was brought home
where II was thought that death would soon
come to relieve me of my sufferings. Last
hi,
ing condition. a friend of mine in Hamilton,
Ont, called my attention to the statement
of one John Marshall whose case had been
similar to my own, aud who had been curei
by the use of Dr. Williamss PINK Pills for
Pale People.
I'm this case Mr. Marshall, who is a promi-
nent member of the Royal Templars OF
Temperance, had after four years of con-
slant treatment by the most eminent Cana
dian physicians been pronounced incurable,
and was paid the $1,000 total disability claim
allowed by the order in such cases. Some
months after Mr.. Marshall began a course OF
treatment with DIR. Williams's Pink Pills
and after taking some Is boxes was fully re-
stored to health
81 thought would try them, and my wife
sent for two boxes of the pills and | took
them according TO the directions given on
the wrapper ON each box. For the first few
days the cold baths were pretty severe, as
was so very weak, but continued to follow
instructions as to taking the pills and treat
ment, and even before | had used up the
two boxes of pills | began to feel beneficial
effects from them. My pains were not 50
bad; | felt warmer; my head felt better
my food began TO relish and agree with me;
could straighten up; the feeling began to
come back into my limbs; | began 10
be able to get aboug on crutches; my eye
came back again as good as ever, and now,
after the use of eight boxes of the pills-ata
cost of only 400-see = can with the help
of a cane only, walk all about the house and
yard, can saw wood, and on pleasant days |
walk down town. My stomach trouble IS
gone; ht We gained 10 pounds, | feel ike
new man, and when the spring opens ] eX-
pect to be able to renew my organ and piano
agency. / cannot speak in too high terms OF
DIR. Williamss Pink Pills for Pale People,
as | know they saved my life after all the
doctors had given me up as incurabe"
Other citizens of Galway, seeing the won
derful cure of Mr.. QUAINT by the Pink Pills
for Pale People, are using them. Frederick
Sexton, a sufferer from rheumatism, said he
was finding great benefit from their use, and
Mr.. Schultz who had suffered from chronic
dysentery for years, said he had taken two
boxes of the pills and was already cured.
Mr.. QUAINT had also tried Faith cure with
oxna,.fc of that in ALBANY and
