From he Journal, Lesoiston, Ne.
A bright little woman, rosy and fresh from
her household duties, dropped Into a chair
before the writer and talked with enthusiasm
shining In her swapping. black eyes.
The people in the pretty village Of Leeds
Centre, Me-, nave watched with some inter-
est the restoration to complete health Of
Mrs. W. L. Francis, wife Of the Postmaster.
30 general were the comments on this inter
esting case that the writer who visited Mrs.
Francis and learned from her that the state
ments regarding her troubles and her subse-
quent extrication therefrom are entirely
true. All Of her ~neighbors know what has
been the agency that has performed this
cure, but that others may be benefited by her
experience, Mrs. Francis has consented to
allow her story to appear In print.
"If there is anything on earth that l dread
more than another" she said, ut Is to see
my name in the papers. But in this case l
conquer my ~repugnance and give publicly
the same credit to the savior OF my life as l
would to one who had dragged me from a
death beneath the waves. In fact, 1 have ex-
tolled my preserver so enthusiastically and
unreservedly; have sought out sufferers and
recommended the remedy TO so many friends
and acquintances that already my nefghbors
jocularly call me Pink Pills Francis. But
really, my recovery Is something that I con-
slider wonderful. / know that there are 80
many testimonials ofmedicine In the papers
nowadays that people do not pay as much
heed as formerly, but / do wish folks who
are suffering would remember that what say
comes right from the heart OF a woman who
feels that she had a new lease OF happy life
given to her.
eleven years ago 1 was afiieted with ner-
vous prostration. My existence until two
years ago was one Of dragging misery. Any
one In the village will tell you OF my condi-
tion. My blood seemed exhausted from my
veins and month after month | grew weaker.
! WINS able TO undertake only the liehtest
household work, and even then 1 could per-
form 1t only by slow and careful movements.
During all these sorry months and years l
was under the care OF this doctor and that,
but their medicines helped me only spasmod-
ically, and then I fell into relapses more
Frustrating than ever.
SIN the night l used to be awakened by
the mott excruciGting pains in my heart and
side, and was Obliged to use pellets OF pow
erful medicine that the doctor gave me for
relief In such attacks. At last my condition

quently. We live upstairs, you notice, over
my husbands store, and In descending the
stairway 1 frequently was Obliged TO sort OF
fall and slide over the steps In order to
descend, such was the strain on my system
resulting from even this slight exertion. oc-
casionally 1 visited the ~neiRhbors, but Twas
Obliged to sit and rest to recover breath
whils ascending any elevation. In short. 1t
did not seem that l could live, such was my
complete physical prostitution.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, and al
though my faith in remedies was weak by
that time, 1 sent for g box and tried them.
That was two years ago.. Now l call myself
a well woman. Isn't 1t wonderful
81 haven't had one Of those excruciating
pains In the heart for a year and a hall.
Why, even the first box of pills helped me.
l can walk miles lows; can do my work
easily; have gained in weight constantly,
and you would scarcely believe 1t, but q lit
tie while ago l was examined for
life insurance aud was accepted unhesitat-
iDgly after a careful examination by the ply
stefan.
$40 you wonder tina I'm shouting Pink
Pills all through our VILLAGE? / haven't
taken any OF the remedy for some months
for II has completely built me up, but at the
first sign Of trouble 1 know to what refugeto
fee.
"Last year my aunt, Mrs. NJ. A. Blossom, of
DixHeld, P. O., was here visiting me. She
was suffering from lack Of vitality and heart
trouble. but she wasskeptical about my rem
edy that I was so enthusiastically advocat-
ing. t last, however, she tried II and car
rIed some lone with her when she went. A
little while ago l received u letter from her
and In it said, Il am cured, thanks to God
and Pink Pills She also wrote that her hus-
band had been Frustrated, but had been re-
stored by the remedy.
'we feel upthis way that such a sovereign
oinra aaDn0f ha fon wfdalV known. That ia
the only reason why l allow my name to be
used In this connection. l know also that
by personally recommending them ! have
helped many of my friends back to health.
for / never let an opportunity pass when a
word of eounse may direct some one"
One Of the persons to whom Mrs. Francis
recommended Pink Pills is Station Agent G..
H. Foster, OF Leeds Centre, and the reporter
found him patro ing the platform awaiting
the arrival of the morning train. Mr.. Fos-
ter, who Is ono of the most trustworthy,
capable and energetic men in the employ OF
the Maine Central Railroad, appeared in I'M
usually good health and spirits, and we made
inquiry as to the cause.
aDo you know" replied he, II think I've
made a discovery, or, at least, Mrs. Francis
has for me. Ihave been In poor health for a
long time with a heart trouble variously
complicated, We have been so fully inter-
estsd in Mrs. Francis wonderful recovery
that l ar once determined to give the medi.
cine recommended q Thorough test. So. about
two months ago, I bought the first box oil
DR.. williams Pink Pills. Only two months,
please note. yet already / am so much i'm
proved, so much better able to fulfl my
duties, so ~sanguins that I am on the road TO
recovery, that I feel like a new man.
az can now walk without the fatigue l
once experienced, my heart affection appears
to be relieved. and I have Joined the Pink
Pills Band In our community"
Mr.. Foster commenced taking the pills at q
time when he was completely Frustrated, at.
ter he had suffered such a severe attack oil
heart trouble that 1t was necessary to carry
him home from his office. Since then he has
faithfully adhered to the remedy and Is con-
stantly improving, SO much SO as to excite
his enthusiasm and his gratitude.
