During the spring of the current wear
1898, my daughter Berthe, aged 10 Year,,
became afflicted with a nervous disease
it seriously interfered with her studies, and
aroused the gravest fears that it would de-
velop into St. Vitus dance. My daughter
became 90 nervous that she would drop her
knife and fork while eating, and would At
times be seized with nervous twitchine,
which excited the alarm of myself and wife.
About this time my wife read in newspa.
per of wonderful cure of the same disease
ffected by DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale, People. So strongly was impressed
with the facts set forth in the testimonial
that wrote to ascertain the authenticity Of
the case. Receiving q reply which com.
pletely satisfied me, sent for box of the
pills. s.|..
From the very first dose marked i'm.
provement in my daughters condition was
noticed. She had become thin and exces-
sively pale, ~ is common to sufferers from
nervous diseases, and her weight had de-
creased to an alarming extent. After a
careful and thorough trial Of the pills, she
not only began to grow less nervous but a.
so began to gain flesh.

prised and delighted with the wonderful
change brought about by the first box ofthe
pills. She is a new girl, and all the symp-
toms Of her disease have disappeared. Dr.
Williams Pink Pills have certainly wrought
wonderful and complete cure. ard can
say nothing too good in their favor. But
now she is away on visit, something she
would not have thought of being able to do
three months ago. From being shrinking,
morbid and timid she has become strong,
healthy girl with no appearance of ever
having been afflicted with any nervous trou.
bles. The pills have done wonders, and |
take great pleasure in recommending the
pills to all who are afflicted with q similar
disease. (SignedD L. L. BARBoR.
