For many years was a sufferer from muscular
rheumatism in its worst form, and in addition had
stomach trouble to such an extent that for lous
time could eat nothing stronger than beef pep
tenofds. The rhcunia tism commenced in my back
and not only extended into my left arm, almost
par; lying it from the shoulder to the elbow, but
attacked my hips and limbs with such vehemence
that 1t was impossible for 10 go out the
street without being supported by attendant.
1 was attended by four different physicians-not
all at one time--Cf both the allopathic and homeo
pathic schools, and there were times when
covered from my reck TO my feet with porous
seine other kind OF plasters, for 1 tried every
thing Of the sort that was recommended by my
friends.
During the greater part of this time my hus-
band and son were urging me to take DR.. Williams

use DIR. Williams Pink Pills, but again refused
Then my son, without saying anything to me about
it, Went or and bought electropose, for which
lie paid SD. This tre,i but it did me 10 good.

cure me, but that he would not commence to treat
me until his return month later. He advised me-
however, to rub my affected arm in a peculiar

returned home feeling that incurable.
Well what did your new doctor say INQUIRED
my husband as soon he saw me.
On, he has gone away for month, and I don't
pehere he can do NE any good anyhow. There does
not seem TO be any cure for me.
Suppose you try the Pink Pills. said my hus-

We'll, go get me box, 1 replied
No, l won't do that, because one box will do
you no good but If You will promise me to take
them for reasonable length time, say until you
use five or six boxes, will willingly buy all you

How long will 1t take for me to consume five
or six boxes, l asked.

All right, said l. will take them for month
My husband at once went and bought three
boxes of the pills, ard commenced taking them the

Il want to say that when began taking the Pink
Pills 1t without the least faith in their ELI
cacy for good or belief that they would benefit me-
but simply to please my husband and by
taking something. However, 1 took them as d.
rected by the makers, and about the end of the
month found to my great surprise that my stom-
ach was much better that l had no longer to
sutsist on beef peptonoids but could begin to in
dulse in more solid food.
80 told my husband that as the Pink Pills were
evidently doing me good, would try them for an
other month.
Il continued to them as directed, and during
the second month my eyesght, which had been very
bad for long time began to improve, and 1t was
much more pleasant for me to so on the street. |

great difficulty in remembering where l had put
any thing but, said before, this trouble entire

eycsight also continues excellent.
My long continued illness had reduced my weight
from between $50 and no pounds 112 pounds.
