From the Philadelphia Record.

[From the Philadelphia Record
Very little is heard by the general
public Of the great discoveries ia medi-
scinp,-and the countless scores of lives
that are saved by the advancing knowl-
edge Of medical science. Diseases,
which a few years ago bafflsd the most
emihent physicians, and were be-
lieved to be absolutely incurable,
succum5 today as readily as
the most trifiing ailment. No
one, perhaps, has better cause to appre-
ciate this than Richard A. William. of
Bustleton, Pa. Mr.. William is aretired
calico print manufacturer, and before
his health began to trouble him he car
fied OH an extensive business, both in
Bustleton and Holmesburg. He is fifty
three years orage, has travelled widely,
and is man of more than ordinary edu-
cation and intelligence. A reporter
vino visited him found him stroiliug
leisurely through the grounds surround
ing his pleasant home. Mr.. William
was at first decidedly averse to the un-
welcome publicity which he felt would
follow the story of his case in the news
papers. Realizing, however. that it
might be the means of bringing relief
to others who are suffering as he had
suffered. he finally consented.
IF it had not been for one of the re-
cent discoveries of medical science I
believe l would be lying helpless in bed
Instead OF enjoying this STROLL" he
began. "My troubles really date back
to several severe falls received when a
young man, but suffered no great in
convenience until 1883. My first sensa-
ton was great difficulty in walking. AS
this feeling grew more intense finally
called in a well-known physician OF
Holmesburg, who Immediately told me
that l had locomotor ataxia, and placed
me under active treatment. instead OF
getting better l seemed to grow worse,
and was scarcely able to get around.
A year after l became his patient he
told me that he would have to give me
up. He gave me to understand that |
must resign myself TO A condition Of utter
help!essness until death came to my
relief. At last | got so that could not
walk at all; my limbs went back OH me
entirely, and was just able TO sit up.
l then called in DR.. Bull, then III Phila-
deiphia, and now resident of Chicago.
He recommended sun baths, and l had
a sun-parior erected Tor the purpose,
but my trouble did not yield to such
treatment, and finally 1 abandoned it.
In April last, received letter from
Mr.. Gran1ieI, friend of mine in FL
mira, n. Y, telling me how hew nedi-
cine called DIR. Williams Pink Pills was
performing astonishing cures in the
seyereSt nerve diseases. and advising
me to give them q trial. Not knowing

ordinary medicine, 1 was at first i'll

feel some benefit. My whole system
seemed better. kept taking the pills,
and one day TO my great joy discov-

that time on my recovery has been

five months, from a condition of utter
helplessness l am able to walk one

health from week to week. and my feet
no longer feel as though they were
weighted down with lead. L ascribe
this wonderful change solely to Pink
Pills. My mother Is very enthusiastic
over the pills. and thinks Dr.. Williams
ought to have his great discovery pro-
claimed from the hOusetops."

densed form. all the elements necessary
