pay the expenses Of a law suit
against the railroad company, but the
company's attorneys very willingly
compromised the claim for damages
by paving him s. 900. His condition
continued to grow worse, the eXcru-

until upon the recommendation and
by the request of lady friend, Mrs.

would have had in eating a handful Of
dirt" He commenced taking the pills
on the I'd dey of February, taking one
after each meal, and in ten days time,
to his surprise and intense delight. the
pain began 10 leave him. For seven
, months he had suffered continuously,
and his JOY when relief came can DO
imagined but not described. He con-
; tinued taking the Pink Pills until Tho

: il was before he was hurt.
This spring he moved on to a farm.

properties.
