PARALYSIS
May BE CURED
A Case i'm Point, Carefully Verified
by a Careful Paper.
Paralysis is Often Only Nerve Starvation
and This is True of Neuralgia and
Sciatic Rheumatism.
From Me courter. Herald, sagtna,g, Mlch.

Among all Of the ills that human flesh is
heir to, none are more terrible than those
lingering diseases that fasten themselves
upon the victim and give daily evidences Of
the rayages that they are effecting. Some
of them are not accompanied by physical
pain, but the sure and visible progress OF
the disease unnerves the sufferer, who lies
with a sword of Damoclcs suspended over
him, powerless to stay the hand of death,
and watching in mental agony the end of the
unequal contest.
Of this nature is creeping paralysis, that
gradually enfolds the victim in its clutches,
and renders him more and more helpless
from day TO day. A case of this character
and its speedy cure, recently came under the
observation of Courier Herald representa-
dive while at the village of Markell Tuscola
County, Michigan. Mr.. j. +. llallenbeck,
leading farmer there. was the speaker, and
as Mr.. llallenbeck was telling the story of
Ms own case, we give II in his own words.

my farm; but in u short time, as a result of

lrrns rendering me entirely helpless. The

was Of no use. Finally ! was taken to st.
Mry's hospital at Detroit Mich, where !
had the hest of nursing and all that medical
science could render. ! remained there for
twp weeks, but got no better, and was taken
back 10 my home.
"Hcrc, a ncighbor who had taken great
interest in my case insisted that | should try
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People as
he had used them himself with perfect sue
cess for similar illness. ] had little faith
in Pink Pills. However, | got box and
continued taking them. At the end of the
third box my condition was wonderfully
improved, and within six weeks / was so
well that i was again able to attend to my
work on my farm. All traces of the paral-
ysis had disappeared, and | have had no re-
turn of the trouble.
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills acted in my
case in wonderful manner, and quickly,
and to them | ascribe my relief from paral-
ysis and its attendant ills During my fitness

tai agony as the disease progressed from day
to day, and its progress was clearly marked
by my perceptibly increasing helplessncss

strong, and able to do the hard work re-
quired on my eighty acre farm. / now keep

renee of my troubles as long as | have them
in the house"
As he concluded Mrs. IIallcnbecll added
that she cordially indorsed all that her hus-
band had said in favor of Pink Pills. and
nat she had herself used them with perfect
,.,rcrsS in II case of liver trouble. She was
well pleased with them, and the mild easy
and quick way in which they operated.
While in Markell, Tusc0la County, few
DAYS ago a Courier HerdH representative
heard of the case of Mrs. Levi jerome who
had been an invalid for many yenrs and
