Rev. Thomas l.. Lewis, who resides at
2649 Neff st., and is Pastor Of the Rich
mond Baptist Church, relates very in
teresting account of his experience with
La Grippe and how he secured relief by
taking DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. MIR. Lewis Is thirty-nine years

popular preachers of Philadelphia.
He is an alumnus OF Bucknell College
at Lewisburg, Pa, where he attained the
degree OF Masters OF Arts. With his
other work he edits and publishes the
Richmond Baptist, monthly journal de-
voted to the interests Of the church. He
looks upon the practical eide of life, both
preaching and publishing the importance
OF good health, and when asked to tell
what DR.. Williams Pink Pills had done
for him, he went before Eugene Ziegler,
Notary Public at 2788 Neff street, and
cheerfully made affidavit to the following
narrative:
II began taking DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People two weeks ago this
Sunday. had the grippe for more than
two weeks. ] had great trouble during
that time with my eyes and head. The
disease also affected my appetite and
stomach. 1t required great determine
