Will INTEREST EVERYONE.
4 Man Who Was Cured of Rheuma-
tism and Paralysis After suffer
ing for Twenty-Sfx Years.
Trom the Philadelphia Record)


\ very interesting story comes from Cape
May G. H.. y. }. The chief character in
the story is John l.. Steel. who has lived
in that town for thirty years. and is one OF
the best known men in Cape May county.
To reporter Mr. Steel said: Certainly.
I'll tell YOU the story. I am ffty-four years
old and was frs; attacked with the rheu-
matism twenty-six years ago. l suffered
an that mortal man could stand. The medi-
cine and the doctoring | have had has cost
me at the very least s25e0. but they were
all like so much water in my case.
one day, in 1sS2. I was taken With
chill up and down the back my leg gave
out at the knee and I fell like log. Never
shall [ forget the agony I suffered. I
thought / would go crazy. ! could not
walk, and my legs were all drawn up a.
the knee and felt as if dead. IL with
out feeling and without power. / called i'm
Or. Alexander Young. one Of our town
physicians. He cupped and blistered me
without success. | went 10 Dr. Downs,
physician Of the old school Dir. Downs
took my leg and pulled il out straight,
then he laid it over the arm Of the sofa
on which 1 was reclining, and from il sus-
pended two bricks. The pain was almost
unbearahle The battery was applied, and
the result was that ] was just as bad as
ever. As a last resort I went TO the late
DR.. Pancoast. then OF jefferson college. He
pronounced my case chronic rheumatism,
and said that he could relieve the pain. but
could not cure me He gave me saTSapa-
rila and iodide Of potassium, OF which /
had already taken a quantity. l felt that
l was going from bad 70 worse. The pains
were growing more intense. my body was
growing weaker and I had TO crawl up
stairs on my hands and knees. / was as
y1-hf ftr,ce ur1y-
frozen to death. I slept under enough
covering to crush me. and was cold
then. I had TO lift my leg around wher-
ever l wanted it, but at night it would
twitch and jerk though possessed by
some fendish power.
We'll 70 cut a long story short. l read
I'm the Philadelphia Record Of a man who
had been cured by DR. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. The story appeared TO be
an authentic account and with a ray of
hope | sent for two boxes Of Pink Pills.
This was about six months ago. As soon
as l began to take them they began to
do me good. l felt as though I had been
given fresh blood and new muscles. When
the two boxes were finished ] sent for six
more, and under this treatment continued
TO improve. l began to regain the use Of
my limbs and / could soon get around
with the aid of a crutch and cane. Now L
have discarded the crutch. / have an eX-
why Pink Pills have done more for me
than all the rest OF the medicine and doc
tors put together and my recovery is due
solely TO them. | have taken in all twenty
boxes of Pink Pills and you can see for
yourself what they have accomplished"
Suitng the action to the words Mr.. Steel
placed his cane over his shoulder and
walked off like a man who had never had
an hours sickness in his life. Some idea
of the severity of his case can be had from
the fact that his left leg has been short
ened nearly an inch by the ravages Of the
disease. The following affidavit was made
before John Spalding. Justice of the Peace.
who has known Mr.. Steel during his entire
illness
