FROM the Times, vassar, Mich.

From the Times, Vassar, Mich.
Michigan has been the home of Ar
thur II. Thomas for twenty-six years.
and he is known in Edmore, Bad Axe.
Bay City and Vassar as an honest.
pains-takng, conscientious workman.
Observing a most radical change in
the personal appearance of Mr.. Thorn
as since his residence here, a repre-
sentative of the Times called on that
gentleman, who said in response to
our inquiry:
Your remark regarding my appear
ance calls TO my mind wildly a very
important circumstance in my life. It's
not long story, but IL means consid-
cradle to me, for II marks the dawn Of
a new life. l am now in my twenty
seventh year, and since about fifteen
years Of age 1 have been afflicted with
ecZema-a skin disease, and a name
which does not convey TO the average
person the true suffering IL carries.
MY face first broke out in small
sores, next my back, then my arms,
until almost every part OF my entire
body was covered so thickly that you
could scarcely place the point Of a lead
pencil upon my flesh without striking
a sore spot. My sufferings gradually
increased as the disease attained age.
The tortures no tongue or pen could de-
scribe. 1 consulted physicians Of repute
at Edmore, and after following their
instructions and taking their medicines
as directed, l gave 1t up, because l OBJ
tanned no relief.
81 was next recommended TO a prac-
titioner In Bad Axe, for whom a friend
claimed great success in skin diseases.
prescribed for me, but failed to give re-
lief l was now undergoing most ex-
circulating tortures; dry and parched
as my skin was, could obtain no rest
at night from the horrid plague. 1
tried blood medicines by the score, and
as a last resort placed myself in charge
of another physician at Bad Axe who
disagreed with the others in pronounce
ing my case scrofula in its worst form.
. Ills treatment, however, did me no
good, and after going to Bay City in
charge OF another physician who also
| failed to allay my sufferngs, / took
| the advice of a Pinconning friend
whose wife had been greatly distressed
| from the same causes, and began the
use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. The first box so thoroughly
| cleansed my system of its impurities
that before had taken all the pills L
| began to resume my natural sleep. Be-
fore completing the second box my face
| and body became free from blotches.
the sores disappeared and was as we'll
| as / ever was. No, sir, 1 cannot speak
| too highly of Pink Pills. They cured
me when all other medicines and physi-
| clans failed"

| People are not patent medicine In the
sense that name implies. They were
first compounded as prescription and
| used as such in general practice by an
eminent physician. So great was their
| efficacy that IL was deemed wise to
place them within the reach of all. They
are now manufactured by the Dr. Will
liams' Medicine Company, Schenectady.
