A FRISCO MIRACLE.
THE TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF A WELL
KNOWN BUSINESS NAN.
So Badly Crippled With Rheumatism
That He Lost ALI Power of Feet and
Legs-How He Was Cured.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.


NJ. E. Douglas, young man who owns
and runs a barness-shop at 1912 Mission
street, in this city, tells a tale of a re-
markable cure of rheumatism after he had
suffered for several years and had almost
given w hoping thai it could be cured.
That Mr. Douglas cure is permanent is
amply demonstrated by the fact that it was
effected two years ago and rheumatism has
not troubled him at all since that time.
LIZ was In regard TO his recovery that a
Chronicle reporter called upon Mr. Doug
las few days ago. The young man told
the following story:
About four or five years ago began to
De much troubled by severe pains in my
Iee' and ankles and it annoyed me so
greatly that / could only keep at work
with difficulty. I began to think that L
was standing on my feet too much and
Toulu nave to manage to do easier work.
! was IN harness-maker's shop then.
fHoou1 mat time l read of disease of the
asut Whlcn Is contracted in the German
army decided that had the same dis
ease ana read up the remedies used for
a;a ana Tried them. OF course, they
ulu no good. l then tried ho-water
oatnlng and also used mustard water. [
got some relief from the bathing, but it
constantly increasing. At last went 10
u physician and ne gave my prescription,
but 1t did no good. was now so hadlv nff
mat the acute pain had gone up beyond
the caves oil my legs. l used to have to
Slt oown very often, and frequently when
L would try to stand up | would fall right
over. l completely lost power over nv
feet and legs and was almost paralyzed.
Finally L determined that | would have to
let the disease wear itself out.
Iou see we are all natives of Canada.
My iather. mother and / used to live at
Inf W
stock Sentinel Review which contained a
number of reports about the wonderful
properties of medicine called DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills. l thought that if one
quarter or one-tenth of what was said
about them was true they might do me-
some gOnd. We got 81 80 worm OF them,
and began TO take them without much
regularity and without thinking much
about their curing me. l just took them
when L thought of II, two or three at q
time, as they happened to come handy. [
was also suffering from severe attack of
piles, which gave me a great deal of
trouble. After | had been taking the
Pink Pills awhile noticed that the piles
lett me. and then my rheumatism just
went away from me so easily that hardly
thought of it until it was gone. l had
given up all other treatment and was TAX
ing nothing but the pills, so it must have
been the pills that toured me. / took more,
keep them in the house now. They give
your cheeks fine, healthy glow, and keep
you feeling well all the time. My rheu-
matSm was completely cured, and has not
troubled me for Two wears.
INV grandfather. John Douglas, is still
living in Canada. He was quite well &C
quainted with this very DR.. Williams who
first compounded the pills, and knows that
he has the very best of standing in the
community.
Il cbeerfully recommend the Pink Pills.
and l think that any one who takes them
is sure to receive benefit. AS | said, we
still keep the pills in the house all the time,
and would not be without them"
Mr.. Douglas is 26 years of age. He has
been in San Francisco for the best part of
his life. He is we'll and favorably known
by great many San Francisco people,

can find him at work in his harness-shopl
at 2612 Mission street.
