From the London (ont.) Advertiser.


a 33 Alma street, South London, lives
Mr.. E. j. Powell. gentleman who has re-
sided in London and vicinity for about six
years. He has been sufferer since his
youth with rheumatism in its worst form.
but now the haggard face and almost
crippled form of year ago have given way
to an appearance of health and vigor.
Hearing of this reporter called on Mr..
| Powell and asked him to relate his expert
ence.
The first time 1 really felt any rheu-
matte trouble" said Mr.. Powell. was in
1872. 4 twnge of pain caught NE. but
passed away in an instant. | did not
know what it was. After that l was at
lacked at various lerods. and In 1876
began TO grow alarmed. In 1878 | suffered
from sciatica III the left leg.
"For a number of years afterWard con-
tnued to grow worse and worse. In the
summer of 1884 l experienced the pain
constantly. 1t was all day and at all
times. / took the electric treatment stead
lily for several weeks. but it did me- not
tile slightest good.
"A year ago last winter l was seized
with n cain and Tor fourteen weeks
never left the house. The only way in
which | could be moved was by being
wheeled around in an easy-char. What l
suffered during that period no one but N.Y.
sell can ever realize. Mr.. Marshall. Of
whose case you have heard, is an acQnalnt-
ance OF mine, and said he could not say
whether Pink Pills would cure rheuma-
tism or not, but they were good for the
blood anyway and at least it would do me
no harm TO try halt dozen boxes.
$50 did; bought six boxes, took four
and received no benefit that L could recOg-
niZe, and while taking the fifth [ noticed

no pain. / supposed it was a temporary
relaxation due to natural causes. How
ever, it gave me some hope to finish the
sixth box. Then / knew / was getting
better-much better. The pair which had
| been constant became intermittent and less
severe. My friends and family told me
that | was beginning to look like another
man. My face. which had begun to wear
a drawn expression, common with people
who are suffering, commenced to show
better color. My system was being toned
up. Inspired with increased hope l Dur-
| chased six more boxes from DR.. Mitchell,
the druggist, and continued to take them.
and with each box l realized more and
more that it was a cure. l used up thir-
teen boxes in all. and when the thirteen
were finished L had not symptom OF pain
! for three months.
Now" concluded Mr.. Powell, you
have my experience. l know what / was:
| know what l am. l know that from
Ooyhood l have been victim of malignant
rheumatism, which has been torture the
last few years. l know that l have tried
every remedy and been treated by the best
medical skill, but in vain and | know that
| Pink Pills have succeeded where every
thing else has failed and that they have
brought me back health and happiness.
Therefore l ought to be thankful. and L
am thankful" And Mr.. PowelIs intense
earnestness of manner could admit OF no

"You may ask Rev. Mr.. Mcintyre of the
| Askin-street Methodist Church or the
Rev. G. A. Andrews, 3. a, pastor of ths
Lambert circuit, whether | was sick man
or not" were his parting words.
The reporter dropped in on Rev &. T..
Mcintyre at the parsonage, 50 Askin street.
Il know Mr.. Powell WE'LL" said the rev.
| erend gentleman when questioned. He
is an esteemed parishioner of mine and is
attending the Askin-street Church again."
do you remember MI: Powelps illness
year ago last winter?" ''Yes; he had a
very bad attack of rheumatism which laid
him up for a long time. He had to be
wheeled around the house in chair. Now
he appears to be well man. | heard he
had been cured by DR.. Williams Pink
| Pills. MIR. Powell is, in my opinion,
most conscientious person, and any state
ment he would make would be perfectly
| reliable"
Mr.. B. A. Mitchell, the wel-known drug
| gist, upon whom the reporter next called,
said: II know of Mr.. Powel's cure and it
| is every word true. / have sold thousands
| of boxes OF Pink Pills. and knowing that
