(From the Covington, KY, Post.)
The Hon. John M. Rice, of Louisa
Lawrence County, Kentucky, has for the
, past two years retired from active life as
Criminal and Circuit Judge of the six,
teenth Judicial District of Kentucky.
He has for many years served his ma
tive county and state In the legislature al
Frankfort and at Washington, and, until
his retirement was noted figure in polit-
ical and Judicial circles. The Judge Is
well known throughout the state and
possesses the best qualities which go to
make Kentucky gentleman honored
] wherever he is known.
| About six years ago the bodily troubles
which finally caused his retirement at a
time when his mental faculties were in
the zenith of their strength, began their
encroachment upon his naturally strong
constitution. A few days ago Ken
lucky Post reporter called upon Judge
Rice, who in the following words related
the history of the causes that led to his
retirement. ut is just about six years

was actually dead, and dull persistent
pain in its region kept me on the rack all
the time. In 1890 was reappointed Cir

to give attention to my duties. In 1891,
l went to the Silurian Springs, Wake

Doctors gave me up, all kinds of reme-

there was nothing more for me to do but
resign myself to fate.

til April, 1898. One day John saw an ac-
count of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People in the Kentucky Post. This
was something new, and as one more
drug after so many others could not do
SO much harm, John prevailed upon me
to try the Pink Pills. 1t was, think, in
the first week in May the pills arrived. 1

more than three or tour days at the time.
The effect of the Pills, however, was mar
velous and could soon eat heartily, q
thing had not done for years. The liver
began almost instantaneously to perform
its functions, and has done so ever since.
Without doubt the pills saved nay life
and while do not crave notoriety can
not refuse to testify to their worth.
The reporter called upon Mr. Hughes
the Louisa druggist, who informed him
that DR.. Williams Pink Pills, have been
very popular, since Judge Rice used them
with such benefit. He mentioned several
who have found relief in their use.
