ION prosperous farm in Broome coun-
ty, New York, about two miles from the
village Of Maine, lives Mrs. Martha Gates,
the wife Of Burdette Gates. whose friends
and relatives regard as one who has been
rescued from the grave, so serious was the
condition of her health,a few months ago.

Binghamton Republican called upon Mrs.
Gates at her cheerful farmhouse, to learn
from her own lips the causes that had re-
stored her to health and happiness. Mrs.
Gates made the following statement: -.-

my sex and suffered agonizing pain. The
trouble continued to grow worse, until

worse than before. I was confined to my
bed for three months and was absolutely
unable to attend to my household dut-
les. j could hardly feed myself so weak
had become. l had to be waited upon
day and night and was physical wreck.
There was very grave doubts about my
ultimate recovery. The best hope the doc
tor could hold out to me was that might
be able to get around again and attend to
my household duties after remaining in
bed few months longer. But instead Of
getting better grew steadily worse. One
day happened to read in the paper about
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and decided to give them trial. I'M
mediately after taking them and before l
had used half a box l saw q marked
change for the better in my condition
All this time, however, l was confined to
my bed l continued taking the medicine
until l had used four boxes and by that
time was able to be about and around
again The improvement has been steady
ever since. 1 am still little weak, but
am growing stronger as fast as nature,
aided by DR.. Williams Pink Pills will
let me. have great faith in these pills
and shall use them hereafter. My hus-
band, who felt real miserable all the
spring, took them and they made new
man of him. have also used them for
my daughter, aged 10 years, who has found
them very beneficial for troubles inciden-
tai to her SEX So far as am myself con-
cerned consider it a wonderful cure.
