Restored.

From the Times Herald, Chicago. Ill
One of the happiest families In all
Chicago today is snugly ensconced in
neat and cozy little cottage. and sur
rounded with every evidence of con-
tentment and humble prosperity at PIT
East Huron street.
The head Of this household is Mr..
William M. Johnson, a merchant who
has had good business success, who is
Well-nked In the community, and Of
whom everybody speaks well, and who
has the good will and respect of eyery-
body. His family consists of his wife
who is rs years of age, and three chill
dren. The eldest is mine years old
and the youngest little tot of some
thing less than a year
She said: Shortly after the birth of
my baby. which is now nearly one
year old, l met with a very painful and
serious accident. It was one of my
busy days, having many household
duties to perform, I hurried up stairs
and l cannot remember when coming
down, whether I tripped or stumbled
over something, but I fell headlong
down the entire flight of stairs. I was
badly bruised and battered and felt
that had been seriously hurt, how
seriously I did not then realize.
Our family physician was called in
and on examining the bruises. at first
thought that I had sustained internal
injuries, and told my husband that
they might result fatally.
For many weeks I suffered much
pain and more time elapsed, but still
my condition not only failed to i'm
prove but gradually. became SO much
worse as to seriously alarm us all.
Then came more weeks of suffering
but after a time,S came some i'm
provement, andsI had almost entirely
recovered from the external bruises
and other outward evidences of my ac-
cldent, when | suddenly began to suf-
fer, so it seemed to me, from a com
plIcation of weaknesses and diseases
peculiar to women, which I had never
before experienced, as I had always
been UP to within four years of that
time, perfectly healthy in every re-
spect.
MY sufferings became then so in
tense as to render life unbearab1e. T
also became so bloated that my most
Intimate friends could scarcely recog-
n1ze me in my swollen and distorted
form, the first trace of my former
figure.
At this juncture and while still I'M
der the treatment prescribed by nv
physician. I first learned of DIR. VIII

could possibly be of any benefit to me
in my condition.
But, regarding my7,eaSe as a most
desperate one, and being Influenced by
the urgent solicitations eff my devoted
husband, who had heard of rena rka bile
cures resulting from sthe use of these
pills, l decided to continue the use Of
the pills for time at least Results
have shown that my decision was
more than justified, for now, after
three months use of theapills according
to directions, I have been restored to
perfect health and even my neighbors
are astonded and nearly incredible by
the visible effects of the. remedy and
can hardly believe I am the same
woman who so recently presented such
an unsightly and unhealthy appear
