NERVOUS PROSTRATION.
The Most Terrible of All Ailments.
Imagination Fails to Describe the
Suffering Caused by This Disease
The Story of Two Sufferers.

No more d,plorable condition of the human body
be conceived than that of nervous prostration,
when every nerve in the system seems to vie with
the others to make you miserable, when even the
sunshine irritates you, when the happy prattle of
the Child distracts the loving parent, when life is
haunted by constant foreboding, when the light
of life seems to turn a smoking smoulderng fame
of torture-thats part of prostration, just
a phase of this many sided disease. As its grasp
upon you strengthens you lose, perhaps, the power
to walk, to talk, to think, even the power
to love. Death would be welcome, but, alas it
comes not until the cup of suffering is full to
overfowing. Such has been the experience of Mr..
W. Heinrich Robb, No. 500 New Jersey avenue
northwest, whose story is best told in his own
words
. For a long time," said Mr.. Robb Il suffered hor
ribly with nervous prostration and tried many ply
sicians and various highly recommended remedies
without experiencing the slightest benefit. Last
fall my business called me to Pittsburc Pa and
while there my mother, who remained in Washing
ton, heard, through friend, of some remarkable
cures made by DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and
wrote recommending that 1 should try them To
please my mother and not with any great expecta-
lions that they would do me any good, procured
a box AT this time and for long period previous
my condition was most deplorable My appetite
was gone. 1 could not walk alone, and had at
tempted to do would have fallen 1 did not
take as many of the pills at time as are direct
ed by the makers of them, and had done so be-
lieve 1t would have been better for me- as 1 might
have been relieved quicker. Nevertheless, after l
mad taken them for month felt stronger than
bad for many months. should have mentioned
that until 1 had been taking the Pink Pulls for
ABOUT week and for a long time before, had to
force myself to eat, but after the first box of
pills had been used by me, my appetite returned
ana was able to eat like horse I should also
have said that when began taking the Pink Pills
my legs had become as seemed to me Ike wooden
legs. and my body was fast becoming in the samc
condition. The use of two boxes of Pink Pills
however, drove all this trouble away, and regard
them as wonderful medicine

one Of the teachers in Miss Paync's School of
Cookery says: "Dr. Williams Medicine Co,npany.s

but feel that ought to testify briefly to the facts
In my case. had suffered from nervousness for a
long time, and was all run down, I tried various
remedies, but none of them did me any good
some wonderful that had been effected by
means OF the Pink Pills, and bought a box. They
helped me wonderfully. and 1 determined to CON
tinue to use them after 1 SHOULD return to Wash
ington until became entirely cured. After l had
used the first box, which not until after had
come back to Washington. l found, to my great
surprise great difficulty in getting them in the
city. At last, however, druggist did succeed In
getting ME box. and after taking them 1 have
been entirely cured of what was a severe and pro-
lonsed attack of nervous prostration.

cures that have been credited to DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pile People. Diseases which mere
tofore have been supposed to be ncurable, such as
locomotor ataxia md paralysis. succumb to this
wonderful medicine as readily the most trihng
ailments In many cases the reported cures have
been investigated by the leading newspapers and
verified in every possible manner and in no case
has the least semblance of fraud been discovered.
Their fame has spread to the far ends of civiliza-
ton, and there is hardly drug in this coun-
try or abroad where they cannot be found.
