PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE.
From the Herald, Boston. Mass

Those who have had the misfortune to be
afflicted with salt-rheum, more especially
when it has come in early childhood, car
appreciate what it is to "doctor /" for this al
most incurable trouble. They almost all tes
tify that they have "doctored" for years
and often with some of the leading physi
clans, spending large sums of money without
obtaining relief When this is complicated
with an attack of rheumatism, especially in
the case of a man whose avocation is one
that exposes him to it, the serious nature Of
his physical ills may be imagined, and also
the potent efficacy of such remedy as DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, which
has proved able to conquer such concensus
of bodily problems, and to put the man into
q condition of vigor as a substitute for one
of a most disheartening outlook.
In view of the circumstances it is not sur.
prising that many in Boston, especially those
of the railroad men, who have been familiar
both with the individual and the attendant
circumstances; should make so much COM
ment on the cure wrought in the case of Mr..
James Freeman, for number of years past
employed as brakeman on the Old Colony
Division of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad. This gentleman had
been afflicted with salt-rheum from infancy
and his blood had a decided tendency to
humors, IN addition to which the exposed
character of his occupation promoted an ag-
gravated attack of muscular rheumatism
which threatened to destroy his usefulness
and deprive him of this means of livelihood.
But learning of the remarkable testimony
which had been given to the efficacy of DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People when
ever tried for these and kindred difficulties,
particularly such as arise from an impover-
ished or disordered condition of the blood, he
was induced to try them, and the result has
been so gratifying that he has became q
pioneer in recommending them to his fellow
workmen, who through his words and the
manifest results of his example have shown
o constantly increasing use of the pills.
In view of the degree of attention which
the case attracted, particularly in its effect of
promoting the use of the pills among men
who are not in the habit of taking medicine,
the circumstances were deemed worthy of
personal Investigation, and accordingly a re-
porter made call at the cosy home of Mr..
Freeman, at 233 Shawmont Avenue, Boston,
Mass, where he and his wife were found to
be thoroughly free and unreserved in stating
the facts, and most cordial in appreciation Of
the Pink Pills.
