Mr.. II. Watkins, OF this city. Who was
Injured In the Wreck Tells OF His
Terrible sufferinss and Final
Cure.
From ne Ez1miHer, san FraHeiseo. CaL
Mr.. II. Watkins lives at zoos Geary
Street, San Francisco. He is a rail
way postal clerk, and has been in that
business for years. When seen at his
home he gladly told his experience
with DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. He narrates the facts
leading up TO his trying them, the
benefits he has enjoyed by their use
and the results of recommending them
to others
He said: 81 have suffered from
rheumatism for years. At times |
have been SO bad that could not raise
my arms over my head. No one had
worse rheumatism than /. got it
first in the Truckee smash-up. | was
laid ON the snow in the wreck and
then taken to the railroad hospital.
Ever since then | have suffered at
times terribly, that is to say, up till a
year ago. Once at Redlands, in San
Brenardino county, thought should
die, and at Promontory | was so
crippled that | had to be carried to
the mail car. No one who has not had
1t can understand the agony. | was
not able to get out of bed at times. |
had to crawl on hands and knees from
the bedroom to the kitchen.
Occasionally when | tried to rise
in the morning the pains would seize
me and had to be caught to proven
my falling. | tried every kind of
medicine. The only thing that helped
me at all up to year ago was some
fearful stuff an old Mormon gave me
when | was taken down in Utah. 1t
was horrible stuff to take and only
eased me for a short time
About year ago l went into the
No Percentage Pharmacy ON Market
Street. While l was there an old man
named Cowen of Vallejo Junction, came
in. He told me he was going to get
Pink Pills for his rheumatism. l told
him if they could do him good they
might help me too. He had been up
to Byron Springs and was nearly
doubled up with rheumatism. The
doctors told him just as they had told
me, that medicine would do him no
good. Well, didn't give up. l am
young man and you would not expect
me to give myself up as a hopeless
rheumatic at my age. l was ready to
try anything. l bought two or three
boxes of the pills and began to take
them. The way in which they took
hold of ME was simply wonderful.
did not take many of the pills either,
and, of course, am careful not to
expose myself. / have never been lame
since and have never lost nights
sleep from rheumatism. | recon-
mended the pills to my friends and |
have yet to hear from the first one who
has not been benefited. As for myself,
| would gladly make affidavit to the
good they have done me, i'll fact / am
only too happy to do so for l cannot
say too mech for the benefit ! have re-
ceived.
Going through Vallejo Junction
on my train one day | saw the old
gentleman, Mr.. Cowen, and l called
out to him how are the Pink Pills.
He replied, they're fine.
Il was down in Los Angeles and
called upon postal clerk, friend of
mine. He told me that his wife was a
great sufferer from rheumatism. | told
her to try the Pink Pills, and now there
is no one i'll Los Angeles who thinks
more of the pills than Mrs. Carr, that is
her name. dom think she had rheuma-
tism quite so badly as l, but she was
just as anxious to get rid Of it, and
she is just as grateful to be well again.
Il always keep a box of the pills
handy just in case l should need them,
though my wife will tell you how rare
ly l use them now"
