A VERY HAPPY WOMAN
And Indeed She Has Good
Reason to Be Joyous.
HOW 1T ALL CAME ABOUT.


One would have to travel long dis
lance and search thoroughly to find a
more bright, attractive and pleasing lit
tie lady than Mrs. Cross, who resides at
No. 326 West Esd street, New York. She
is the wife of Mr. Clarence Cross, who is
an expert telegrapher, connected with
the Western Union Company. Seated in
her parlor few evenings since, in a
pleasant conversation, / was told story
which in interest and importance 1 have
never heard excelled.
"You would not think, y said Mrs Cross
in u naive manner, shat 1 ever knew
what trouble, unhappiness and pain
were, but, nevertheless, l think few
women have ever gone through what /
have About a year ago paid visit to
Boston, and while there began to feel
very strangely. My head ached, 1 had
no appetite, 1 coughed constantly, and
began wasting away at terrible rate.
My complexion grew sallow, dark lines
came around my eyes, felt no ambi-

things continued until I finally became

Yes, indeed, many time, but somehow
gained no strength, and was losing in
flesh constantly. You would hardly be-
lieve it, but at that time 1 weighed only

'And did you not get very much dis

Certainly, but tried to be as brave
as possible, although 1 felt that there
was but little hope. All my mothers

once had severe attack of pneumonia,
I feared that my time of life might be
short from the same cause. l returned
to New York and tried to be brave and
cheerful, but certainly did not feel that
way. My husband said it seemed to him
that had every kind of disease known
to the world. 1t was at this time that
a friend said to me: i do think
you need the medicines and drugs you
are taking. Why not drop the cod liver
oil, and other nauseating and disgust
ing medicines, and try some good food
something that will build you up and
strengthen your l told her that would
be glad to do SO, but did not know what to
take. She kindly gave me bottle of food
which she told me had done great things
for some of her friends. And now comes
the surprising part of my story. While
in that weak, emaciated condition.
weighing less than 80 pounds, l
began to take the food. The very first
began to relish other foods. Soon after
wards, l noticed that my flesh and
strength were increasing, and that my
complexion was getting better. Then it
seemed to me that l could not get enough

slept soundly every night. was so
happy and were my friends, that
continued taking the food, and, to make
a long story short, am, you see me

every day, feeling like a girl of sixteen,
and l owe it all to the wonderful al
most might say, acknowledgements of
Paskola. the great pre-digested food,
which has done SO much for me.
HTOu think / am enthusiastic about itT
Well, why should 1 not be? Would you
not be if you had been helped-I might
almost say saved-as / was? Of course,
l have recommended it to my friends,
and / have yet to find a single person
who has not been benefited by its use. /
do not think that people and women
especially ueed drugs or medicines to
keep them in health when afflicted as /
was. What do.think they need is good,
sustaining, strengthening food, which
does not require any effort on the part of |
the stomach to digest it, and this is GER
tainly the power Paskola possesses-it |
goes at once into the blood, strengthen |
ing and making new life. 1 believe if
women knew these truths more generally, !
there WOulQ DC less SlckueSS, less SdliOW-
ness, and more happiness among them |
than there is.
