1t was the drug clerks turn to tell a story
Of one of his experiences, and the reporter,
expecting something good, as usual, settled
himself comfortably in a chair, prepared to
give his undivided attention to the speaker.
The latter was Henry Maier, who resides
with his parents on Aqueduct Street, New
ark, N. j.. and who hands out medicine over
the counter Of DR.. Andrew F. Burkhardt's
drug store at 27l Orange Street, this city.
"Perhaps 1 can do nothing better" he be-
gan, ethan to tell you the secret of my good
health. 1t is a story that l have told to
each case, it may be worth your while to
listen to it. To begin with, [ was not al
ways strong and robust, as l am now. Long
hours OF work and hard study had left me
In a wretched condition. Frightful, linger-
ing headaches found me a ready victim, and
ateimes I was so nervous that the dropping
Of a pin would cause me to give q violent
start, and then | would be seized with a fit
Of trembling that was, to put 1t mildly, ex-
ceedingly bothersome. Well, / began to
doctor myself. Now I flatter myself that |
know something of medicine; but with all
my knowledge, I could find nothing that
would care those terrible headaches or put
an end to my nervousness. When ] picked
up a bottle my hand would shake as though
HAD the chills, and if it was a powder that
l was lanQll0B 1 SGOOu b ROou CuduCc VI
.,prinkling it alt over these black trousers.
Things went from bad to worse, and l soon
realized that a man Of my physical condition
had better not attempt to mix medicine:
"sTry a box of DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
said DR.. Burkhardt one day; and as you
know the doctors advice is always worth
following, l got the Pink Pills and began to
take them. Aladdin's lamp never performed
the wonders of these pills. Would you be.
!ieve it2 Before l had taken the contents OF
one box my headache began to give me a
day off occasionally, and soon 1t left me en-
tirely. How about my nervousness Well,
She pills put an end to that with almost
startling abruptness: You see l knew
importance of following tho prescribing
physicians directions, and by paying strict
attention to those given by DIR. Williams
with each box of his Pink Pills, / was soon
another fellow. Look at me now! A pic
ture of health, en-? Well, that is h DIR.
Williams Pink Pills will do for a man, or a
woman, either. See, I can hold this glass
of water out now without spilling a drop,
but I couldn't do that two months ago and
s'What is it, ma'm?" he asked as a neatly
dressed woman came up to the counter: "a
box of DR.. Williams Pink Pills" YES,
nam, fifty cents, please. Thank you"
"These Pink Pills are great things, SAID
Mr.. Maier as he turned to the reporter again,
and the latter, after allhe had heard, thought
so too.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new lie and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. The:sare for sale by all druggists,
