and raised thes-, and am thirty-nine years
of age. 1 am farmer by occupation, and
the exposure and hariships incident to this
life finally overcame q strong constitution,
and in the month OF May. 1894 was seized
with what the medical fraternity pronounced
sciatic rheumatism.
"Tne disease was first felt in the hip and
soon became severely painful. Within
short time the whole lower extremity was
affected and became terribly swollen, and at
times the pain which was almost unbearabe
extended up into tn . shoulder. / consulted
the best physicisns and specialists in the
country, some Of whom treated me some
time, but to no successful purpose l used
various patent medicines and linimenfs of
wide recommendation, but none of them
gave relief. worried along this way for
some months, being unable to work and at
times unable to move. l became restless at
night ant could not sleep. The disease
seemed to affect my heart and it was utterly
: impossible TO lie on my left side on account
OF the seriousness OF the pain at the heart.
KY condition seemed a hopeless one and
was much discouraged. when by chance 1
happened to read an account In the Wheel
ina Independent Of the wonderful cure OF
person AFFLICTED like myself, that DIR. Will
Jams Pink Pills had effected. This was some
time in the month OF December. / immedj-
ately procured bcx and began to use them.
A change commenced at once.

entirely cured. To-day / am a well and
sound man. Tue pills not only cured my
