Many survivors OF our late war left the

ID. Blundin, resident of Hulmeville,

~ was born at BrideewAter, Pa, in 1S4l,

with diploma but did not practice. AT
that time was living in Manayunk. One
day, after had graduated, was lying on
sofa at my home in Manayunk, when L
felt cold sensation in my lower limbn rs
though the blood had suddenly left them.
When tried to move them was Mortified
at the discovery that was paralyzed from

finally announced that my trouble was
caused by Inflammation of the spinal

College, Philadelphia, with tue same re-
suit. / called in Dr.. Morehouse, OF Phil.

medicine would ever prove of the slightest
benefit to me.
"One day last September decided to
try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. / sent for one box. had always
been troubled with sort OF vertigo after
my first stroke of paralysis to such an eX>
tent that when got out OF my bed my
head would swim aud had difficulty In
saving myself from falling. My appetite
was bad, digestive organs ruined and no
assimilation of food. In addition to my
many ailments, rheumatism held prom
inent place, BY the time / had flushed

paratively free from these minor ills. My
appetite returned, the digestive organs
got down to their daily grind and the
rheumatism disappeared. l was much
encouraged and Immediately sent for half
= dozen boxes of the Pink Pills. Relief
followed upon relief with astonishing
rapidity. First one oil would disappear,
then another until the pills got to work
upon the foundation stones of my trouble

and the general effect was beneficial,
becoming more so each day. Noting this
fact, l increased the dose from one to
two pills after each meal for few daya.
Before had taken the six boxes Of pills

when / felt q curious sensation in my left
foot. Upon investigation, l found IL had

on my Improvement was steady and II
was not long before was walking around
on crutches with little or no discomfort.
IL was three years before taking the Pink
Pills that l had been able TO use the
crutches at any time. My health is daily
improving and feel sure that Pink Pills
have done me more good than all the
doctors and all the medicine in the coun>
try and as they are not costly l can easily
afford the treatment
MIR. Blundin tells of another remarkable
cure effected by the use of Pink Pills. One
OF his comrades ia the army was Lewis J.
Allen, OF Battle Creek, Michigan, who has |
been n sufferer from rheumatism nearly |
all his life. Mr.. Allen is a grandson of |
Ethan Allen OF Revolutionary fame. ~ J
know said Mr.. Blundin, "that Mr.. AL |
len could not lift his arms to his head, or !
even his hands to his mouth, because of |
chronic rheumatism. He read in a De- |
troit paper of a wonderful cure made by |
Pink Pills and bought a box, His cure |
was sudden aud complete. Moving |
that was sufferer from rheum mstism, |
along with my other ills, he wrote me |
about his recovery and advised me to try
them. was then using them. He said
he bad perfect control of his arms and |
hands and could use them freely without
experiencing any pain. He added that as
a cure for rheumatism the Pills were the
most complete in the world. My case
alone proves that, for am confident that
my greatly benefited condition is due
solely to the use of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People"
