| Among the peculiar conditions with which
! the people of the present age are endowed is q
remarkable capacity for doubting. full be-
! lief oniy comes after careful investigation.
aud after positive proofs have been presented.
! Current report said there had been a remark
able cure IN the case OF a lady of savanna. ILL.,,
| hut as current report i not always accurate,
and as the story told was one possessing deep
| interest for the public The Times determined
| upon thorough investigation into the matter.
/ The result OF this investigation proved that
+ not only was the story true, but that the case
! was even more remarkable than the public had
! been given to understand.
Mr.. a. IL. Kenyon is the fortunate owner of q
comfortable house, well kept and with pleasant
surroundings, situated on Chicago Ave, Sa-
wanna, H., and it was there the reporter
sought him to learn of the sickness of his wife,
| and the cure of which so much is being said.
In answer to the bell lady appeared at the
door and to an inquiry for Mr.. Kenyon said
he was employed by the railroad company,
worked at nights, and was asleep. Is Mrs.
Kenyon well enough to see me?" the reporter
then asked.
With very suggestive smile she said,
There is no doubt of it," and inviting the re-
porter in informed him that she was the lady
in question. When told the reporters mission
she said, The statement of facts as You have
made it is quite true. did not think my case
was of special interest to any one outside of my
own family and friends but if what informa-
tion can give you will be of use to any one
else you are welcome to it. / owe my present
good health to a casual glance at a newspaper,
and as with me, some other woman may be for
tunate." Mrs. Kenyon is an intell gent lady
like woman. and her home bears evidence of
h. i, . f,l1
her story as follows:
was born in Warren County, New York,
thirty three years ago. was married when |
was nineteen, and came to Savanna seven
years ago. With the exception of being at
times subject to violent sick headaches / con-
sidered myself healthy woman up to five
years ago. AT that time / was very much run
down and an easy prey to the ever-present
malaria in and about the Mississippi bottom
lands was taken violently i'll, and during
the succeeding five or six months the
greater part of the time helpless. The local
physicians said had been affected by malarial
and intermittent fever. | continually grew
weaker, and finally went to see DR.. McAvey, of
Clinton, Iowa, who is reputed to be one of the
able5t physicians in the Mississippi Valley. He
treated me for time without beneficial effects,
aud finally told me he thought he could help
me if | would absolutely abstain from work.
That was not to be thought of. If able to go
about had to look after my household duties.
then consulted prominent doctor of Savanna.
bly, stomach would not retain the medicine he
gave me, and he came to the conclusion that
my stomach was badly diseased Occasionally
/ would choke down and nearly suffocate. |
then went to DIR. Mzloney, and he pronounced
il a case of heart trouble. He helped me tenn
pOrarily, but like the rest said l must stop all
work or nothing could be done for me. All
this time | had grown weaker and paler until

tinual feeling of tiredness, my muscular power |
was nearly gone, and could not go up half |
dozen steps without resting, and often that |
much exercise would cause me to have terri |
bic pain in my side Seemingly the blood had |
left my veins / was pale as death my ips |
were blue and cold, and ] had given up all |
hope of ever being better. About the first of
April last young man boarding with Us re-

one day, and in casually gIancing over its coll
umns came across an account of a marvellous
cure through the use of DIR. Williams Pink /
Pills for Pale People. Candidly. did not believe
the story. and when my husband suggested that
it would do no harm for me 20 try the pills | |
laughed at the idea. He insisted and / SUBJ
mitted, but / had no faith whatever in the
pills. My husband sent for two boxes and /
took them. When these had been ased / was
somewhat improved in health. | continued

feel new blood coursing through my veins /

rugged woman. My house is full Of boarders
and | superintend ali the work myself In
other words work all the time and am happy
all the time. / am positive that Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People saved my life, aud
believe there are thousands of women who
,onld find great relief if they used them. The
sick headaches / was subject to from girlhood
have disappeared, and ! have not had single
attack since | commenced taking Dr. Williams
Pink Pills"
"Were there any disagreeable effects from
he medicine?" asked the reporter.
None whatever" replied Mrs. Kenyon.
They are pleasant to take and the conditions
imposed by the directions easily complied
with. In common parlance | took Pink Pills
and they did the rest" Mrs. Kenyon stated
hat all her neighbors knew of her former con-
lition and her restoration, and one of them was
,alled in, and when asked of her knowledge of
he case said, ~ have been intimately ac-
luainted with Mrs Kenyon, and know of her
Illness look upon her recovery as something
marvellous. 1t is surely the unexpected that
happened in her case. OF my own knowledge
cannot say what the nature of her ailment
was, but know that she was reduced to mere
shadow; was the paest and most ghost-like
person / had ever seen. Hers was remarka-
Die case She would be helpless one day and
he next wonld be supervising the work of her
house. but all the time there was a noticeable
loss of strength and the natural vivaciousness
Of her nature disappeared. 1t was generally
thought she must die as none of the physicians
who attended her seemed to understand her
case or help her in the least was told of the
sending for Dr. Williams Pink Pills and of
course thought il the whim of a dying woman,
DR. perhaps a sign that her husband still in
sisted in hoping against hope. But you can see
the result for yourself, and if miracles are not
in these days | would be pleased to
know how to describe a case of this kind"
1t is remarkable case. There is no reason
70 doubt the sickness of Mrs. Kenyon and in
ust the form she describes it. Hundreds of
people in that immediate neighborhood are
'ully conversant with the facts of both sickness
md cure, and discuss it with sympathizng
But few persons have gone so

eternity and returned and from the facts
tated there is bnt single conclusion to be
