Foremost among the best known LAWYERS
and farmers of North Carolina stands Col.
Isaac A. Sugg, of Greenville. Mr. Sugg has
resided in Greenville % years. While
nearly everyone in Pitt Co. knows Mr.. SIS
history, perhaps all do not know of his re-
turn to business again after an illness of 10
years. No man has gone through nore than
he and lived. It was q case of the entire
breaking down of the nervous system, at
tended by excruciating, agonizing unendur-
able pain. Opiates and stimulants onlv
quieted temporarily, and all treatments failed
him. Only his love of family and friends
prevented suicide. He told reporter the
following interesting story:
kept at my work as long ns / could
but nature gave way at last and ! succumbed
to the inevitable. My entire nervous sys-
tenn had been shattered by the stimulants
and opiates had taken, my blood had actu-
ally turned to water, my weight had Drop
ped from 173 pounds to 1913, and it seemed TO
everybody that the end was in sight. Why

simply living from hour to hour. had
made my will, settled my business and
waited for the last strand of life to snap.
1t was at this time that a somewhat SINH
lar case as my own was brought to my
notice. This man had suffered very much
as l had, his life had been despared of as
mine had and yet he had been cured.
Think what that little word meant to me-
CURED. The report stated that the work
had been accomplished by a medicine
known as DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. | Investigated the report thoroughly
and found that it was true in detail Then
! procured some of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and began taking them and began
to get better. / began to sleep like health
full child, sound, calm and peaceful My
appetite came back and, my nerves were
soothed and restored TO their normal condi-
tion and ] felt like a new man. But the
greatest blessing was the mental improve
ment. I began to read and digest, to formu-
late new plans, to take interest in my law
practice, which began to come back 10 me
as soon as my clients realized that ] was

That DR.. Williams Pink Pills saved my
life is beyond doubt. and / am spreading
their praise far and wide"
Inquiry about the town of Greenville SUBJ
stantiated the above facts of Col. Sugg's
case, and that many others are being bene-
hted by Dr. Williams Pink Pills.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are for sale by
