and raised there, and am thirty-nine years
of age. 1 am II farmer by occupation, and
the exposure and hardships incident to this
lie finally oyercame strong constitution,
and in the month of May, 1894, was seized
witt 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. l 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 aud 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. l 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 at the heart
my condition seemed a hopeless one and
was much discouraged, when by chance [
happened to read an account in the Wheel

person afflicted like myself, that DIR, WILL
iams' Pink Pills had effected. This was some
time in the month Of December. / immedi-
ntely procured box and began to use them.

entirely cured. To-day 1 am a well and
sound man. The pills not only cured my
rheumatism, but drove that troublesome

slightest with either malady or any other
for that matter. L am a strong man and
p rform as much manual labor as any far
