From time to time there have
appeared in the leading and most
reputable newspapers of the country
marvellous accounts of many wonderful
cures that have been effected by
medicine called DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. These statements
have been made by some Of the best
known inen In business circles, church
circles and even medical circles, and
backed up by their aflidavits.
The Inquirer is pleased to add
another 10 the list and gives the story
below, properly vOuched for.
Little ELtie MOncrieff is the daughter
OF Mrs, Helen Moucritff, who resides
with her sister, Mrs. Nj. G. Meek, at
74S " barton Street, which is neat
little bakery. The reporter found
Mrs. Meek herself behind the counter
and she said:
My SISTERS daughter, who is now
year old, was ulll lcltd from her birth
with spinal affection, and the doctor
who attend ed her said she could not
live. We had two other doctors TO
attend her. They also said she could
not i've. Finally | took her to the
HahnemHnn College. That was four
months ago, when she was months old,
The examination was made In the
presence of room full Of physicians
aud students. The Professor leclured
ON her case say ing 1t WAS u very rare
one. lie said that IN such cases there
was very seldom a recovery. IL was,
he Remarked, the most peculiar case
That Was ever brought 10 his attention.
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 thUu ght she
was entirely gone. she was uncon-
scIOus, with scarcely peTceptibie pulse
or breo tn. Several times she was In
an almost equally helpless condition
aud We looked for her death hourly.
Then l called to mind how DIR,
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
had once cured mt, and the miraculous
recoverles l had heard of aud read
about of people cured from psTalysis in
various stages, and even from physical
deiorm tiles. told my sister that
since all the doctors had abandoned
the child, aud she set med 10 have no
chance for life, 1t could certainly do no
harm to try the piuk Pills 10 see if they
C iuld possibly repeat their other won
derful cures. Neither my sister nor
had the faith that they would do so In
a case of nearly gone rs the childs and
we agreed that 1t would be miracle
indeed If she should be saved. She
couldn't move at that tme both her
arms aud legs being effected. But We
began that very night giving her the
Pink Pills, letting her have one pellet n
day divided into three parts. On the
third day We could see that she was
improving Before that 1t was hard to
get her to take food. AT the end Of
two weeks We saw great improvement
IN her, We continued giving her the
pills more than a month. After we
we ceased giving her the Pink Pills,
however. she seemed little less happy
and healthy and we began using them
again. Now she Ia a cheerful, beauti-
tut child in splendid health. She has
entirely recovered from her spinal and
other troubles. She sleeps well and
takes her food WE'LL For child Of her
age she seems to he as strong and
healthy a. could be expected. When
we hold by the arm or she is at our
knees she can stand. and for child who
was once deprived Of all power of spine,
arms and legs, this seems wonderful.
We cannot have the slightest, oubt-
now that she will grow up stongd
healthy child"
Mrs. Meek then told how she had her
self been cured by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills.
Three years ago had very severe
attack of grippe. l thought l would
lose the use of my right arm. There
was strange numbness in 1t and
would have to drop every thing. 1t felt

doct ors and they told me 1t WAS bad cir
culatiOn Of the blood, that / WAS run
down and needed rest. took only one
box of Pink Pills and felt myself getting
better. | took the second box and have
never had pain or ache since. Every
one who knows what work have to do
is astobished. 1t Is certainly wonder
that with my work l am so strong and
have never had return Of the trouble
Mrs. Meeks' remarks were reduced
, to writing, after which she, accom-
panied by her sister, Mira. Moncrieff and
! the child, made the following affidavit:
