A Small Fortune for Medicine,
MRS. LEEK SPENDS $4OOO IN THE
 EFFORT TO REGAIN HEALTH
MT. Shulty's Experience With Nervous PrOstratiOn and Its Attending
 vi

PrOStratiOn and Its Attending ] Evils.
 From the Examiner, San Frdneisco, Cal. l Why, everybody knows the good that Dr. Williams Pink Pills did
 me, " was the cheerful generality with
 which Mrs. Francis Leek, of Room
 29, 1906 Market street, San Francisco,
 Cal, answered the question whether
 she had taken Dr. Williams Pink Pills
 for Pale People. As she looks the pie
 ture of health her story was the more
 surprising.
 ''You would hardly believe it." she
 continued, 'but was an invalid for
 ten years. spent $4O0O being treated
 ln hospitals in Chicago for rheumatism,
 neuralgia, nervous prostration and
 flbrous tumors, and then to think that
 l spent only $6 in Pink Pills and am well woman. It makes me mad to
 think l spent so much and then got
 well for six dollars, still, I am glad
 did get we'll. No one could ever guess how came to take the pills. I have little granddaughter, at least she calls me grandma though I am not really her grandmother. One day we
 were riding in the cars in Chicago and she began to read, Pink Pills for Pale People. It seemed to tickle her and she would rattle it off just as if she had learned line of poetry, and sometimes she would get it turned about and say, 'granmda, what is Pale Pills for Pink People for?'
 "Well, you see, I got familiarized with the name of Pink Pills and one day when got little book about them l sat down and read it all through. T was not good for much else but sitting down or lying down, and thought I'd give them trial. I guess there is not much more to say. Look at me. I don't look much like an invalid to- day, do I?'
 It was perfectly true that Mrs. Leek did not look much like an invalid, and 1t IS no secret that she was married only about six months ago. She said that she always keeps the pills by her bedside, and produced handful of the little round boxes as evidence of her faith in them. ''I have had it on my mind to write to Dr. Williams direct and thank him for all the good they have done me; but one thing and then another came up and have not written, yet. l have recommended them to | scores of people and probably that did more good than writing. Oh you can put me down for the Pink Pills every time. I believe in them and I can tell the genuine pills, too, right off. There is nothing that is just as good for mel want the real pills every time."
 MT. Francis Shulty, of 712 Talyor St., said: ''Yes, the Pink Pills did for me all that was claimed for them. I used them for about five months. They were recommended to me by druggist | on the corner of Oak and Cough streets, the Eagle Drug Store is the name, think. I was run down, very nervous, and suffered from indigestion. The doctor said my blood was thin and that | 1 needed change of air and all that kind | of thing. We'll, couldn't do that, and this friend of mine just told me | kind of finland to try the Pink Pills. I have tried pills before that were SUD- posed to cure everything anl did not have much confidence, but when a man is sick he don't care what he tries if there is chance to get we'll. I got the pills-one box, that is. It did me good, I began to feel better right away and 1 kept on with them. 1 have got over all my nervousness and I must say they did me world of good. 7"
