Hron The Kansas City Ti,mcs)
The people OF Rich Hill, Mo, and vicinit,
have recently been startled by a seeming
miracle OF healing. For years one OF the
best known men in Bates and Vernon coun-
ties has been Mark NJ. Woodson, now posi-
master OF Panama, and brother OF ex-s,ata
Inspector OF Mines, C. C. woodson, of this
city. The people of Rich Hill, where hs
formerly resided. and OF his present home,
remember well the bent form, mIsshapen
almost from the seiublance of man, which
has painfully bowed its head half to earth
and labored snail-liko across the walks
season after season, and when one day lase
month 1t Strengthened 10 its full height,
threw away the heavy butt OF cane which
Tor years had been its only support from
total helplessness, and walked erect, firmly,
nnhesitatingly about the two cities, people
looked and wondered. The story OF the re4
markable case has become the marvel OF thu
two counties. Exactly as Mr. Woolson told
It to q Times reporter, it is here published ;
"For ten years l have suffered the tori
ments of the damned and nave been a USE
less invalid to-day I I'm q we'll and hearty
man, free from almost every touch OF pain.
I don't think man ever suffered more acute
and constant agony than 1 have since 1881
The rheumatism started then in my right

1t was only to get about on crutohes for five
years, the 'ailmont having settled in this
joint. Despite constant treatment OF tho
most eminent physicians the rheumatism
grew worse, and for the last four years I
nave been compelled to go about bent half
toward the ground. In the winter OF $780,
81, after the rheumatism had settled into its
most chronic form, l went to Kansas City
upon advice OF my brother, and for sig
weeks 1 was treated In one OF the largest
Rnd best known dispenssries OF that city,
Int without the slightest improvement.
BeIore l came homo I received q strong gall

the same result. In August, 1892, / went
TO st. Louis, and there conferred with the
widely known DR.. Mudd OF hospital prac-
lice fame, and DR.. Kale of the city hospital.
None OF them would take my case with any

about this time my attention was called
TO the account of q remarkable cure by DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People OF
locomotor aiaxia, rheumatism and paral-
ysis. / ordered some OF the pills as an
experiment. When I began to take them,
the rheumatism had developed into q phase
OF paralysis my leg from the thigh down
was cold all the time and could not be kept
warm. In a short time the pil;S were gone,
and so was the cane. l was able to attend
to the duties OF my office, to get about as a
well n strong man. Twas free from pain
and l could enjoy a sound and restful
nights sleep, something l had not known
for ten years. To-day am practically, and.
I firmly believe, permanently CURED OF my
terrible and agonizing ailment. No ma.
gician OF the Far East aver wrought the
miracle with his wand that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills did for me-"
To verify the story beyond all question OF
doubt Mr.. Woodson made the following
affidavit:

my oath, state that the following statements
