Philadelphia Times: Many survivors of
our late war left the ranks unW0unded but
with broken constitutions; an instance in
point, is Lewis D. Blundin. a resident Of
Hulmeville, Bucks county, Ia. In relating
his experiences and what he had suffered

countered, Mr.. Blundin said:
- was born at ~BridgeWater, Penna, in
l84l, and went through the war as private.
sergeant and hospital steward in Co. c..
2Sth Pennsylvania Volunteers. My SER
vice was active, and while in Georgia 1
had an attack of typhoid fever. which left
me weak and a ready victim for future
disease. My kidneys were then affected
and this finally developed into spinal
trouble which lasted through my, army
service. In 1866 | was mustered out with
an honorable discharge, and entered the
Jefferson Medical college in Philadelphia,
as a student. l graduated two years.
later with a diploma, but did not practice.
Al that time was living in Manayunk.
Ono u"y, alCol ilau R~IduuaCeu, Was lying
on q sofa at my home in M~anayunk, when
! felt a cold sensation in my lower limbs as
though the blood had suddenly left them.
when | tried to move them l was horri-
ned at the discovery that l was paralyzed
from my hips to my toes. The paralysis
nesh caused me no pain. / could not move
a muscle. l called in Dr.. William G. Todd
OF Philadelphia. He made a careful and
exhaustive examination Of my case, sound
ing and testing and finally announced
taat my trouble was caused by Inflammation
OF the spinal cord, and that I would likely
nave another stroke of paralysis. 1 con-
suited DR.. |. w. Gross and DR.. Pancoast of
JEFFERSON college, Philadelphia, with the
same result. Icalled in DR.. Morehouse of
Philadelphia, who said that no amount of
bentit to me.
Zone day last September l decided to-
try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie. l sent for one box. !. had always been
troubled with a sort OF vertigo after my
hrst stroke Of paralysis to such an extent
would swim and | had difficulty in saving
myself from falling. My appetite was bad,
dlgestlve organs ruined and no assimilation
OF food. In addition to my many other
ailments. rheumatism held a prominent
place. BY the time had finished the first
box OF Pink Pills [ was comparatively free
from these minor ills. My appetite return
ed, the digestive organs got down to their
daily grind and the rheumatism disap-
peared. WAS much encouraged and i'm
mediately sent for halt a dozen boxes of
link Pills: Relief followed upon relief
with astonishing rapidity. First one all
would disappear, then another until the.
pills got to work upon the foundation
stones OF my trOnble-paralysis. [ felt q
sense OF exhilaration and the general effect
was beneficial, becoming more so each day.

one to two pills after each meal for a few
days. Before l had taken the six boxes of,
pills, | was sitting in my chair one after
noon, when l felt a curious sensation in
my left foot. Upon investigation, l found
it had t1exed. or, in other words, become.
time on my Improvement was steady and
1t was not long before l was walking
around on crutcnes with little or no dis
comfort. 1t was three years before taking
the Pink Pills that | had been able to use
the crutches at n time. My health is.
Pills have done me more good than all the
doctors and all the medicine in the country
and as they are not costly l can easily
afford the treatment"
Mr.. B)undin tells of another remarkable
cure effected by the use of Pink Pills. 1t
was one of his old comrades in the army
who since the war has resided in Michi-
gan. He has been a sufferer from rheuma-
tism nearly all his life. II know said
MI. Blundin, shat there have been times
when he could not lift his arms to his
head, or even his hands to his mouth, be-
cause Of chronic rheumatism. He read in
detroit paper OF a wonderful cure made
! by Pink Pills. and bought a box. His cure
was udden and complete. Knowing that.
l was a sufferer from rheumatism along
with other ills, he wrote me about his re-
covery, and advised me to try them. I was
then using them. He said he had perfect
control Of his arms and hands and could
use them freely without experiencing any
pain. He added that as a cure for rheuma-
tlsm the Pills were the most complete in the
am confident that my greatly benefited
condition is due solely to the use of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.n
