IN INTERESTING STORY FOR PAR-
ENTS.
A Child that was Born with a Terrible
Afiiction-Pronounced Incurable by the
Leading Physicians of Hahnemann Col
l~ege-saved by a Miracle.
Philadelphia Inquirer: From time to
time there have appeared in the leading
and most reputable newspapers of the coun-
try marvellous accounts of many wonderful
cures that have been effected by a medicine
called DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. These statements have been made
by SOM OF the best known in business
circles, church circles and aver medical
circles, and have been backed up by their
affidavits.
The Inquirer is pleased 10 add another
to the list, and gives the story below, prop.
erly vOuched for.
Little Elite Moncrieff is the daughter of
sister, Mrs. NJ. G. Meek, at 748 Wharton
street, which is a neat little bakery. The
reporter found Mrs. Meek herself behind
the counter and she said:
MY sisters daughter, who is now q year
old, was afflicted from her birth with a
spinal affection, and the doctor who at

also said she could not live. Finally I
took her to the Hahnemann college. That

III the presence of a room full of physicians
and students. The professor lectured on
her case saying it was a very rare one. He
said that in such cases there was very
seldom a recovery. 1t was, he remarked,
the most peculiar case that was ever
brought to his attention.
Il brought the child home Immediately,
believing, as the professor and the others
had said, that she couldn't live. In fact, at
one time, we thought she was entirely
perceptible pulse or breath. Several times
she was in an almost equally helpless con-
dition and we looked for her death hourly.
"Ihen | called to mind how DR.. Will

cured me, and the miraculous recoveries |
had heard OF and read about of people cured

that since all the doctors had abandoned
the child, and she seemed to have no chhnce
for life, it could certainly do no harm to try
The Pink Pills to see ii they could possibly
repeat their other wonderful cures.
Neither my sister nor 1 had the faith that
they would do so in a case so nearly gone
as the child's, and we agreed that it would
be a miracle indeed if she should be saved.
She couldn't move at any time, both her
arms and leg being affected. But we be-

Pills, letting her have one pellet a day

we could see that she was improving. Be-

now that she will grow UP a strong,
healthy child"
Mrs. Meek then told how she had herself
been cured by DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
"Three years ago ! had a very severe at
tack OF grippe. l thought I would lose the
use of my right arm. There was a strange

Mrs. Meeks' remarks were reduced to
writing, after which she, accompanied by
her sister, Mrs. Moncrieff and the child
made the following affidavit:
