Immediately on reaching Auburn, your
correspondent called at the above address
and found Mr.. Donnelly out in barn
where he YVES grinding apples and making
cider with n hand press and he seemed
we'll and cheerful and happy.
Aud then later, in the presence OF his

oil confirmed his statement, he told your
correspondent the story OF his sickness
and OF his restoration to health by the use
Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie.
~ was born in Albany, N. Y, and am AZ
years old. The greatest portion OF my life,

eral foreman there of the B. A. Mulgrew
Saw Mills, foot OF Eighth Street on the
East river. IL was on the 29!h OF April,
1889, that the boy fell into the river and /
rescued him from drowning, but in saving
his life, contracted disease, which
nearly cost me my own. Why, Sir, l am
sure l should have died long ago, II Pink
Pills had not saved my life.
"Yousee when saved the boy, was in
the water so long that was taken with
deathly chill and soon became so stiffened
up and weak that / could neither work
nor walk. For some time l was under
treatment OF DR.. George Mcdonald. He
finally said he could do nothing more for
me and that l had better go into the
country. On the 1st of last June, Q89O
my wife and came up TO Auburn. / was
then in great pain, almost helpless, the
disease was growing upon me and l felt
that had come to the home of my wife
and OF her sister to die.
"When the disease first came upon me
the numbness began In my heels and
pretty soon the whole of both my feet be-
came afflicted. There was cold feeling
across the small of my back and down,
wards and a sense of soreness and a tight
pressure on the chest. The numbness
gradually extended up both legs and into
death was creeping up to my vitals and l
must say / lopged for the hour when it
should relieve me Of my pain and misery.
l was still taking medicine ("It was Iodide
of Potassium" said his wife) and was be-
ing rubbed and having plasters put all
over my body, but with no benefit.
"The latter part of last June i learned
Pink Pills for Pale People. 1 had never
heard OF those blessed Pills before, bu
thought II they could cure one
man OF the same disease with
which l was afflicted, perhaps they
would also cure me. So l sent to the
Auburn druggists and chemists at 100 and
Ill Geuesee St, and got three boxes of
the Pink Pills and began taking them at
once. Ia three weeks time l was 30 i'm

able to help myssf and to get up and go
TO work and to walk every day from No.

while l was taking Pink Pills.
"Then DR.. PAtchen of Wisconsin, uncle
of my wife, and who was here on visit,
began to poo-poo at me for taking Pink
taking them and TO let him treat me.
When he returned to the west he left u
prescription with DR.. Hyatt OF Auburn,
who also treated me. But their treat,
ment did me no good, and after while
the old trouble returned and was getting
bad again. Then began again to take
Pink Pills; have taken them ever since,
taking them now; have taken in all about
20 boxes, at an entire cost OF less than
5000 my other treatment cost me pile
Of money and again am well and able
to work.
"In New York DR.. Mcdonald said my
