In the interest Of common humanity, your
reporter has the honor to send you an inter-
esting and profitable interview had with one
of Harrison County's most highly esteemed
citizens, concerning his narrow and miracul-
GUS escape from death. The person referred
TO is Mr.. Floyd E. Barnett, Of Jarvisville,
West Virginia, who is we'll known through
out Harrison County and other sections OF
the State.
Mr.. Barnett's narrative is as follows: IL
live at Jarvisvlle, West Virginia, was born
and raised there, and am thirty-nine years
of age. I am farmer by occupation, and
the exposure and hardships incident to this
life finally overcame strong constitution.
and in the month Of May, 1894, was seized
with what the medical fraternity pronounced
sciatic rheumatism.
"The 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 unbearable
extended up into thu shoulder. I consulted
the best physicians and specialists in the
country, some of whom treated me some
time, but to no successful purpose. used
various patent medicines and liniments 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. I became restless at
night and 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 ut the heart.
"My condition seemed hopeless one and
was much discouraged, when by chance l
happened to read an account IN the Wheei-
Ing independent Of the wonderful cure OF
person afflicted like myself, that DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills had effected. This was some
ately procured q box and began to use them.
A change commenced at once.
IT continued to take the pills until felt
entirely cured. To-day am we'll and
sound man. The pills not only cured my
rheumatism, but drove that troublesome
pain from my heart as well. For more than
a wear now have not been troubled In the
slightest with either malady, or any other
for that matter. am strong man and
perform as much manual laoor as any lar
mer."
Mr.. Barnett is q man highly respected for
veracity. His statements are corroborated
by his neighbors and his recovery is ascribed
to theu Of DR.. Williams Pills. As he talked
to your reporter, he showed every sign OF
being man in excellent health and only too
glad to toll the simple story OF how his life
was saved by the use Of the pills.
