HIS REIGN Is OVER AT LAST.
Medical Science Drives Him from His
Throne--A Medicine Discovered
that Rheumatism Can Not Re-
slst-A Dopn for Sufferers.

/ From the st. Louis, Mo-, Chroniclel
/ The effect of using DIR, Williams Pink
| Pills for rheumatism was brought to light
/ lately by Chronicle reporter who inter

| way, ST. Louis, who had been d sufferer
| with this incapacitating disease
"Those pills, he said, 'have proved Of
great benefit not only TO me but to my wife,
Strange to say we both suffered from the
same ailment, although my wife's condis
ton was much worse than mine. Neither
of us could sleep at night we had sharp,
shooting pains i'll our arms sides and limbs,
and continual soreness all over the body
What we suffered from was nothing more
or less than rheumatism. AT times my
wife had to crawl up stairs on her hands
and knees, and as for me, would at night
witch and jerk despite my utmost efforts
to control myself. We suffered the torture
of the damned.
But in three weeks the pain began to
leave us. My case not being as severe as
my wife's soon got well, but it took nearly
three months before Mrs Ferguson could
say she was entirely free from rheumatic
pains. Of course recommend Dir. Will
Jams Pink Pills to all my friends"
MIR Ferguson's words are Endorsed by T.
A. Campbell, an iron worker living on
Chouteau avenue. He too had been afflicted
with rheumatism contracted from working
in damp foundry. He said 'sOne day I
