Will Take Care of Itself.
From the Star, Washington, D. c.
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills miraculously
cured me OF two diseases and have otherwise
done me a vast amount of good" said Mrs.
E. A. Meeker, Of No. 207 Third street, South
east Washington, D. c.. to Star reporter
to-day.
"For many years was sufferer from
muscular rheumatism in its worst form, and
in addition had stomach trouble to such an
extent that for long time could eat moth
Ing stronger than beef peptonoids. The
rheumatism commenced in my back aud not
only extended into my left arm. almost para
lying it from the shoulder to the elbow, but
attacked my hips and limbs with such ve-
hemence that it was impossible for me to go
out on the street without being supported
by an attendant.
"I was attended by four different physi-
cians-not all at one time-of both the allo-
pathic and homeopathic schools. and there
were times when I was covered from my
neck to my feet with porous or some other
kind of plasters, for I tried everything OF
the sort that was recommended by my
friends.
During the greater part OF this time my
luSDanQ aQQ SOU Wel6 uEBluU Llo W
Williams Pink Pills but steadily refused to
do 80.
GAbout two years or two and half years
ago. the physician who wac then attending
me, and l have had none since, said to me,
Mrs. Meeker there is no use for me to come
and see you any more, you have muscular
rheumatism, disease incident to old age,
and YOU cannot be cured. VII! give you
some iron for your blood, and when this
prescription runs out you can get 1t renewed.
If you get much worse you can send TOT me,
but I will not again call until am sum-
moned.'
"Of course I was much discouraged, but
still tried noted massage treatment thor
oughly, but without the slightest effect. At
last my husband persuaded me to try the
Pink Pills.
II want 10 say that when I began taking
the Pink Pills it was without,the least faith
in their efficacy for good or belief that they
would benefit me, but simply to please my
husband and son by taking something. How
ever. took them as directed by the makers,
and about the end of the month found, to
nv great surprise. that my stomach WAS 80
much better that had no longer to subsist
on beef peptonoids. but could begin to In
dulge in more solid food.
80 told my husband that as the Pink
Pills we're evidently doing me good. would
try them Tor anOtRer mOntn.
II continued to use them as directed and
during the second month my eyesiGht. which
had been very bad for long time began to
improve, and it was much more pleasant for
me to 20 on the street, though l still had to
be attended on account Of my weak limbs.
"How many boxes OF the Pink Pills l took
in all could not begin to tell as there were
periods when would stop using them for
week at time. But from the time com
menced until felt could safely cease taking
them was about fifteen months.
Sometime after my eyesiSht began 70
grow better. my memory, which had been
defective and caused me much trouble Tor
long time, returned and became rs good as
when I was many years younger. Dur
ing the period to which I refer ! had
great difficulty in remembering where had
put ANYTHING, but. as I said before, this
trouble entirely disappeared and has never
returned, while my eyesight also continues
excellent.
"My long continued illness had reduced
my weight from between 130 and 140 pounds
to ll2 pounds, but while was taking the
Pink Pills gained 80 pounds. and now
weigh 1873 pounds.
"Some of my friends freely asserted that
my flesh, as they noticed my increasing
weight, was not solid and predicted that I
would speedily lose it. Such, however, has
not been the case, although have not taken
any of the pills since last December. All my
rheumatism having bythat time disappeared,
since which time have had no return OF the
dread complaint have been told that the
disease will visit me again, but II it does, l
shall again resort to the use OF DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
with my experience with DR. Williams
Pink Pills I have not hesitated to recon-
mend them to others who were afflicted. My
niece, who lives near Hillsboro. Londoun
County, Va, suffered for long time with a
peculiar disease of the hips and limbs. Ibe-
fieved the medicine which did me so much
good would cure her also, and bought three
boxes OF them and sent TO her. She took
them and was cured completely Of her COM
phint.'

elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
