Il from the Cayu0o o., W r, Independently
Il Hearing through Messrs Allen Burch, drum
/ sists Of Niles, that Mr.. silas q Pennsll, o RI
/ spected citizen Of that town had been cured Of
4 q bad case of sciatic rheumatism by the use Of
L DR.. williams Pink Pitts for Pale People, thu
l editor Of the Cayuga County Independent deter
L mined to know the truth Of the matter and
| went to Niles TO ascertain FROM Mr.. Penney
himself what his condition was and what tho
pills had done for him. MT. Pennell is farmee
and has a neat and comfortable home near the
Niles post Office, or "Dutch Hollow" a. It n
| commonly called We asked Mr.. Pennell II II
was true that he had been cured Of q bad case Of
rheumatism by Dr. Williams Pink Pills Hpl
replied that It was true and that he would tel
us about IL in few words. He said that three
years ago in August 1891, he was seized witt
severe pains in the hip, Just where the sciatl8
nerve a, as be was informed later, which
gradually ran down his leg making life O m iserS
to him but not preventing him from doing
some work on the farm. Soon AFTER he wR4
loading hay when he slipped of the load and
has hip, in the exact spot where the pain START
ed, struck on the wheel. After this he wac
worse, suffering great agony. and for some time
was unable to do any work. He took sucH
medicines as his physician prescribed and in1s
proved somewhat so that he could help somS
around the farm again. About Thanksgiving
time he was helping to put away some barrell
Of cider which he had made. when he strained
himself and again became helpless. He the4
tried another physician who felt confident Of
curing him by the use Of the electric battery
and medicines which he prescribed But failur6
was the result, he got no better and another phys
stefan was tried and treated him for some tim@
By this time his whole body was affected and hf4
life was a miserable one. Sharp pains would
start in his hand or foot, run up one side of hts
body, over hts shoulders and then down the other
side and then pass of for short time. These
pains would return regularly, affecting hid
whole body, and nothing seemed to relieve hind
and he began to despair of ever being we'll. Id
the spring of 1892 relative In another county
read of case very similar to Mr.. Pennelrs which
had been cured by Pink Pills, and sent the
article to him, asking IL IL did not suit bis case.
1t was very similar and he determined to try
them. He commenced taking Pink Pills and
soon felt better, the pains became less violent
with longer intervals between them. He felt
encouraged and persevered in their use and
soon became able TO work on the farm, and In
April or May he felt so free from pain that he
considered himself a well man again. He SAYS
he has probably taken twenty boxes and able
TO do as good days work any other man,
and we can say that he looks like a hale and
hearty man who had never known sickness.
Mr.. Pennell keeps a box of the pills in his
home and whenever he feels pain or a littld
unweli he takes pill or two and Is soon all right
again. He says they will cure headache for
him in two minutes. He says he doesn't know
what Pink Pills will do for others but be does
know that they have cured him of what physi,
clans said was sciatic rheumatism when three
doctors had failed to do him any permanent
good. Some of his neighbors also, he says,
have been greatly benefited by using Pink
Pills, and one says he cannot afford to keep q
box in the house as his whole family want to
take them on all occasions as they make them
feel SO much better, and they cannot even feel
sleepy in the morning without wanting to take
a Pink Pill for il.

implies. They were first compounded as a pre-
scription and used as such in general practice
by an eminent physician. SO great was their
efficacy that 10 was deemed wise TO place them
within the reach OF all. They are now manu.
