tleman honored wherever he is known.
A., About six years ago the DO lily troubles
which finally caused his retirem mt at q time
when his mental faculties were in the zenith
of their strength, began their encrolchment
upon his naturally strong constitution. A
few days ago a Kentucky Post reporter
called upon Judge Rice, who in the follow
iny words related the history OF the causes
that led to his retirement at is just about
six years since hal an attack OF rheum9-
tism, slight at first, but soon developing into
Sciatic rheumatism, which began first with
acute shooting pains in the hips, gradually
extending downward to my feet
"My condition became 50 bad that 1 even
tually lost all power Of mylegs, anil then the
liver, kidneys and bladder and, in fact, my
whole system became deranged. Tried the
treatment OF many physicians but receiving
no lasting benefit from them. had recourse
10 patent remedies, trying one kind after an
other until | believe there were none l had
not sampled.
Elm 1888. attended by my son John. l went
10 Hot Springs, Ark. | was not much bene-
flied by some months stay there when | re-
turned home. My liver was actually dead,
and dull, persistent pain in its region kept
me on the rack all the time. In 1890 [ was
reappointed Circuit Judge, but it was impoS-
sible for me to give attention 10 my duties.
In 1891 went to the SiIurian Springs Wake

without improvement.
"Again | returned home. this time feeling
no hopes of recovery. Tho muscles OF my
limbs were now reduced by atrophy to mere
strings. Scatic mains tortured me terribly,
but II wrs the disordered condition OF my
liver that was, felt, gradually wearing my
lite away. Doctors gave me up, all kinds OF
remedies had been tried without avail, and
there was nothing more for mo to do but re-
sign myself 10 fate.
II fingered on in this condition sustained
almost entirely by stimulants until April,
1893 One day John saw an account OF DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People in the
Kentucky Post This was something new,
and us one more drus after so many others

upon me to try the Pink Pills. 1t was, L

rived. remember | was not expected to
live for more than three or four days at tho
time. The effect of the Pills, however, was
marvellous, and I could soon eat heartily,

began almost instantaneously to perform its
functions, and has done so ever since.
Without doubt, the pills saved my life, and,
while do not crave notoriety, l cannot re-
fuse to testify TO their worth.
The reporter called upon Mr. Hughes, the
Louisa druggist, who informed him that DIR.
Williams Pink Pills have been very popular
since Judge Rice used thcm with sucl bene-
fl. He mentioned several who have foun
relief in their use.
