II. w. Edwards, Of Lansingburgh, was
Frustrated by sunstroke during the wal
and il has entailed on him peculiar anc
serious consequences. AT present writing
Mr.. r.. is "A prominent officer of Post Lyon.
G. A. H.. Cohoes. and a past aid de am
on the staff Of the commandments of
Albany County. In the interview with
a reporter he said:
II was wounded ; d sent to the hospita!
at Winchester. A NY sent me, together
with others, to WsshiDgton-a ride of
about 100 miles. Having no room in the
box ears we were placed face up on the
bottom Of Hat cars. The sun beat down
upon our unprotected heads. When i
reached Washington | was insensible and
was unconscious for ten nays white III the
hospital. An abscess gathered in my ear
and broke: il has been gathering and
breaking ever since. The result of this
100 mile ride and sunstroke was heart
disease, nervous prostratiOn, insomnia
and rheumatism; Il completely shattered
system which gave me no rest night or
day. As q last resort i toOk some Pink
Pills n they helped me to Il wonderful
degree. My rheumatism is gone, my
heart failure, dyspepsia and constipation
are about gone and the abscess in my ear
has stopped dischnrging Il my head feels
rs clear as a bell. when before il felt as
though il would burst and my once shat
tered nervous system is now nearly sound.
Look at those fingers" Mr.. Edwards said,
do they look as if there was any rheum-
atism there He moved his fingers rap
idly and freely ard strobe about the room
like n young boy. "A year ago those I'm.
gers were gnnrled at the joints aud so stiff
that | could not hold a pen. My knees
would swell up and could not straighten
my leg out. My joints would squeak
when | moved them. That is the living
truth.
when | came TO think that | was going

with the rest of my ailments, | tell you
life seemed not worth living. / suffered
from dependency. i cannot begin 10 tell
YOU" said Mr.. Edwards. as he drew a
long breath, what my feeling is nj pres
ent. i think If you lifted ten years right
of my life and left me prime and yigor-
GUS at AZ | could feel no better. / was an
old man aud could only drag myself pain
fully about the house. Now | can walk
off without any trouble. That in itself
continued Nh. Edwards, would be suiii-
cient 10 give me cause for rejoicing. but
when you come TO consider that | am IN
longer what you might call nervous and
that my heart is apparently nearly healthy
and that ! can sleep nights you may real

agant praise of Pink Pills. These pills
