A WALKING CORPSE
A TERM APPLIED TO A LADY
BY HER FRIENDS.
Her Recovery From Loss OF
BIoou and Dropsy.

Blood and Dropsy.
From the Nugget. chehalis. Wash.
The neighbors called her a walking
corpse. For fifteen years she had suf-
fered from loss of blood and dropsy.
She had not the strength to stand
alone. She had spent thousands Of
dollars with the doctors and had been
unable to find relief. Her case was
considered hopeless.
That is the experience Of Mrs. 9.
Reed, well-known lady of Chehalis,
Wash.
A Nugget reporter called upon her
at her home last Tuesday. She was
willing to be interviewed, she said, if
she could be the means of pointing out
to other unfortunates the way to recov-
cry and good health.
1T has been over fifteen years since
the malady asserted itself, said Mrs.
Reed. "Since then, until within the
last few months, l never knew what IL
was to be well for single day. Icould
not sleep My appetite went away and
began to lose flesh. This continued
for years. became SO weak | could
not wait upon myself. had TO have
the help of others to dress and un-
dress, even to walk from one room
to another. l lost all my strength.
In addition had dropsy of the blood.
My limbs were swollen, and nothing
| could do seemed TO affordme re-
lief. The doctors said | must take
iron to strengthen and invigorate
my blood. / took iron-took it by the
bottle and by the box; took it morn
ing, noon and night. But it did no
good, and | finally lost all hope.
"At last | saw an account of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
l thought this fitted my case exactly
and l tried to get some of the pills.
They were not kept at the drugstores
here, and had to send TO Olympia.
They came finally, however. l began
to take them and experienced relief

In order to confirm this statemen

q make affidavit to its truth. and tn
