The Hon. John NJ Rice. Louisa, Law
renee County, kentucky, has for the
past two years retired from active life
as Criminal and Circuit Judge of the
Sixteenth Judicial District of Ken,
lucky.
He has for many years served his
lature at Frankfort and at Washing
noted figure in political and judicial
circles. The Judge is well known
throughout the State and possesses
the best qualities which 60 to make a
Kentucky gentleman honored wher.
ever he is known.
About six years ago the bodily
troubles which finally caused his re.
tirement at time when his mental
faculties were in the zenith of their
strength, began their encroachment
upon his naturally strong constitution.
A few days ago kentucky Post re-
porter called upon Judge Rice, who in
the following words related the history
of the causes that led to his retire.
ment: ut is just about six years since
/ had an attack of rheumatism, slight
at first, but soon developing into sci
attic rheumatism, which began first
with acute shooting pains in the hips,
gradually extending downward to my
feet.
my condition became so bad that l
eventually lost all power of my legs,
and then the liver, kidneys and blad-
der, and, in fact, my wholesystem, be-
came deranged. / tried the treatment
of many physicians, but receiving no
lasting benefit from them, [ had re-
course to patent remedies, trying one
kind after another until I believed
there we're none had not sampled.
I'm 1888, attended by my son John,
went to Hot Springs, Ark. / was not
much benefited by some months stay
there when returned home. My liver
was actually dead, and dull persist
emit pain in its region kept me on the
rack all the time. In 1890 was re-ap-
pointed Circuit Judge, but it was inn
possible for me to give attention to my
duties. In 1891, went to the Silurian
Springs, Waukesha, Wis. / stayed
there some time, but without improve
ment
Again I returned home, this time
feeling no hopes of recovery. The
muscles OF my limbs were now reduced
by atrophy to mere strings. Sciatic
pains tortured mo terribly, but it was
the disordered condition of my liver
that was, felt, gradually wearing my
life away. Doctors gave me up, all
kinds of remedies had been tried with
out avail, and there was nothing more
for me to do but resign myself to fate.
81 fingered on in this condition sus-
tanned almost entirely by stimulants
until April. 1888. One day John saw
an account of DR.. Williams: Pink Pills
for Pale People in the Kentucky Post.
This was something now, and as one
moro drug after so many others could
not do SO much harm, John prevailed
upon me to try the Pink Pills. 1t was,
[ think, in the first week in May the
pills arrived. I remember I was not
expected to live for more than three
or four days at the time. The effect
of the pills, however, was marvellous
and could soon eat heartily, thing
had not done for years. The liver be-
gan almost instantaneously to perform
its functions, and has done SO ever
since Without doubt the pills saved
nv life, and while do not crave noto-
riety I cannot refuse to testify to their
worth.
The reporter called upon Mr. Hughes,
the Louisa druggist, who informed him
that DR. Williams Pink Pills have
been very popular since Judge Rice
used them with such beneht. lie mon
toned several who have found relief III
their use.
