Ten Years a Cripple To-day
Well end Hearty Man.
d'rom the Kansas City Tfmes.l
The people Of Rich Hill, Mo, AMI VI
cin.ty have re 'entlg been startlel by a
seeming miracle Of heai ny. For years
one Of the best-known men in Bates
and Venom Co mites has been Mark
NJ, Wo MS n, now postmaster at Pana.
ma, and brother o ex-State Inspector
of Mines {. {. WoOdson, of this city.
The peopi3 Of Rich bil, where he for
merly resided, aud OF his present
home remember we'll the bent form,
misshaIen almost from the semblance
of man, which has painfully bowed its
head half to earth and iabored snail
like across the walks season after sea-
son, and when one day last month il
ST. aightened u its full height. threw
away the heavy butt Of can which for
years had been it only support from
total he plessne-s. and walked erect,
firmly. unhe.iiatin3iy about the two
cite PEG, ic lOt ked and wondered.
Tire story of the remarkable case has
become the marvel of tho two counties.
Exactly AZ Mr.. Woodson told it 10 o
Times reporter, il is here published;
"For ten years | have suffered the
tormeuts 0f G damned and have been
auseless invalid to-day ! am "A well and
hearty man, free from almost every
touch o. pain. ! don I think mar ever
suffered more acute and constant agony
than | have sine lSSt. The rheuma-
tism started then In my right knee,
and after weeks OF suffering in bed |
Mas at last relieved suite emily TO
arise, but ii was. only 10 get about on
crutchej for tive years, the ailmcnt
having settled in the joint. Eespite
constaut { eatlnent of tie most emf
ncnt physicians the rheumatism grew
worse. and for the last -four years ]
have been compelled 10 go about bent
half toward tGe ground. In the winter
of lsgC-ll. after the rheumati IN had
settled into its most chronic form, |
went 20 Kansas City upon advice OF my
b otirer. aud for six weeks / was treat
ed in one OF the largest and ~best-known
dispcnsaries OF that city, but without
the slightest improvement. Before |
came home | secured "A strong ~gatvanic
battery. this | used for months with
the same result. In August, ls9', l
went 10 IT. Louis, and there conferred
with the widely known DIR. Mudd, OF
hospital practice fame, and DR.. kale,
of the cit hospital. None OF them
would take my ease with any hope OF
~afording INC more than temporary re-
lief. and so | came home, weak. doubled
with pain, helpless and Respondent.
About this time my attention was
called to the account oil a remarkable
cure OF locomOtor ataxia. rheuma-
tism ard paralysis by DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for fale People. ] ordered

When began TO take them, tho
rheumatism had developed into q
phase of paralysis; my leg, from the
thigh down, was cold all the time and
could not he ept warm. In a short
time the pills were gone, and so was
the cans. ] was abe To attend TO the
duties OF my office, to get about as q
well aud strong man. ! was free from
pain and / could enjoy n sound and
restful nights Sleep, something | a
not known for len years. To-day am
practically and, / firmly believe, per-
iDanently cured OF my terrible and
apon.zing ailment. No magician OF
the Far East ever wrought the mira
Gle with his wand that DIR. Williams
Pink Pill did for re-.
TO verify the story beyond al ques-
ton OF doubt. Mr.. Woodson made the
following affidavit:
