(From the Detroit Evening News)
Away out Gratiot avenue, far from
the din and turmoil of the business
center, there are many attractive
homes The interesting streets are
wide, clean and shaded by large leaf
covered trees and the people you meet
are typical of industry, economy and
honest toll There are many pretty
residences but none more inviting in
its neatness and home-like comfort
than that of Mr. Levi Elsey, the we'll
known builder and contractor, at "A
Moran street just off Gratiot Mr..
Elsey is an old resident of Detroit,
having moved here about forty years
ago. He has erected hundreds of
houses in different parts of the city,
and points with pride o,such build
ings as the New berry & Mcmillan and
Campaw blocks in which he displayed
his ability as superintendent
II have seen Detroit grow from q
village to city," he observed yester-
day in conversation with the writer,
'nnd l don't think there are many
towns in America to-day equal to it
in point of beauty. l know almost
every body in the city, and an incident
which recently happened IN my life
has interested all my friends.
1T is now about eight years ago
since / was stricken down with my
first case of illness One cold, blus-
tering day / was down town and
through my natural carelessness at
that time permitted myself to get
chilled right through. When / ar
rived home that evening l felt a
serious pain in my left leg I bathed
it that night but by morning found
it had grown worse. In fact it was
so serious that l sent for my
family physician, and he informed me
that was suffering from varicose
veins My leg swelled up to double
its natural size and the pain increased
in volume. The agony was simply
awful l was laid up and never left
my bed for eight weeks. At times
felt as though ! would grow frantic
with pain. My leg was bandaged and
was propped up in the bed at an angle
of 80 degrees in order to keep the
blood from flowing to my extremities.
Il had several doctors attic nding me,
but believe my own Judgment
helped me better than theirs. After
siege of two months / could move
around, still was on the sick list and
had to doctor myself for years. l was
never really cured and suffered am
amount of anguish.
about two years ago ! noticed an
article in the Evening News about my
friend, Mr.. Northrup, the Woodward
avenue merchant. In an interview
with him he stated that he had used
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie and that they cured him. l knew
him very we'll, having built his house
out Wood ard avenue, and thought
l would follow his suggestion. Unjust
confess did so with marvellous sue
cess From the time began to take
the Pink Pills felt myself growing to
be a new man. They acted on me
like a magical stimulant The pain
departed and / soon was as strong and
healthy as ever. Before trying the
Pink Pills I had used any amount of
other medicine without any noticeable
benefit. But the Pills cured me and
was myself again.
When a person finds himself re-
lieved and enjoying health he is apt to
expose himself again to another at
tack OF illness Some three months
ago stopped taking the Pink Pills,
and from the day did SO. noticed a
change in my condition. A short
time since / renewed my habit of TAX
ing them with the same beneficial re-
suits which met me formerly. am
again nearly as strong as ever, al
though am a man about sc wears of
age. tell you. sir, the Pink Pills are
a most wonderful medicine and If they
do as well in other cases as they did
in mine they are the best in the world.
I1reely recommend them to any suf-
ferer"
