the Leading Physicians of Hahn
neman College-Saved by a
Miracle.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer
From time to time there have appeared
in the leading and most reputable news
papers OF the country marvellous accounts of
many wonderful cures that have been effect
ed by medicine called DIR. Williams Pinl,
Pink Pills for Pale People. These state
pents have been made by some of the best
0Enown men In business circles, church cir
Giles and even medical circles aud have been
backed up by their atfidavits. The Inquirer
is pleased to add another to the list and
gives the story below properly vouched for.
Little Elite Moncrietf is the daughter of
Mrs. Helen Moncrieff who resides with her
sister, Mrs. Nj. q. Meek, ar 745 Wharton
street, which is neat little bakery. The
reporter found Mrs. Meek hers ell behind
the counter and she said:
my sisters daughter who is now year
old, was afflicted from her birth with a spi-
nal affection and the doctor who attended
her said she could not live. We had two
other doctors to attend her. They also said
she could not live. Finally l took her to
the Hahnnemann College. That was four
months ago when she was months old.
The examination was made in the presence
of room full of physicians and students.
The Professor lectured on her case saying
1t was very rare one. He said that in such
cases there was very seldom a recovery 1t
was, he remarked, the most peculiar case
that was ever brought to his attention.
brought the child home Immediately,
believing as the Professor and others had
said that she could not live. In fact, at one

She was unconscious with scarcely percept-
IDLE pulse OF breath. Several times she was
in an almost equally helpless condition and
we looked for her dea hourly. =. ~SA4
Then l called 10 niial how DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People had once cured
nae, and the miraculous recoveries l had
heard of and read about of people cured from
paralysis Ia various stages and even from
physical deformities L told my sister that
since all the doctors had abandoned the
child and she seemed to have no chance for
|, life, it could certainly do no harm to try the
&Pink Pills to see if they could possibly re-
peat their other wonderful cures. Neither
my sister nor had the faith that they would
do so in a case so nearly gone as the child's
and we agreed that it would be miracle
indeed If she should be saved. She couldn't
move at that time both her arms and legs
being affected. But we began that very
night giving her the Pink Pills, letting her
have one pellet day divided in three parts.
On the third day we could see that she was
improving Before that it was hard to get
her to take food. At the end of two weeks
we saw great improvement in her. We con-
tinued giving her the pills for more than
month. After we ceased giving her the
Pink Pills, however, she seemed little less
happy and healthful and we began using

full child in splendid health. She has en-
tirely recovered from her spinal and other
troubles. She sleeps well and takes her
food well. For child of her age she seems
to be as strong and healthy as could be eX-
pected. When we hold her by the arm or
she is at our knees she can stand, and for
child who was once deprived of all power
of spine, arms and legs this seems wonder
full. We cannot have the slightest doubt
now that she will grow up strong, healthy
child"
Mrs. Meek then told how she herself had
been cured by DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
''Three years ago had a very severe at
tack of grippe. thought l would lose the
use of my right arm. There was strange
numbness in it and would have to drop
everything. 1t felt as If 1t was asleep all
the time. had doctors and they told me
it was bad circulation of the blood, that L
was run down and needed rest. took only
one box of Pink Pills and found myself get
ting better. 1 took the second box and
have never had pain or ache since. Every
One who knows what have to do is aston

my work am so strong and have never had
return of the trouble"
Mrs. Meek's remarks were reduced to
writing, after which she, accompanied by
her sister Mrs MOncrieff and the child,
made the following affidavit
Sworn and subscribed before me this 9th
day of May, A. d., 1898.
