On the farm with Mr.. Struble liv
his two adult sisters. Miss Annie M
Struble made the following state
ment:
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pal
People havedone wonderful things TO
my brother. He was in helples
condition when / left him on Jan
18th last, and when | returned OF
March 25th, found him cured. Tn
: most remarkable thing about tn
case", she continued sis the curing o
, his lameness. OF course wanted t,

one who like myself, was attendin
