Sad Amiction of -Four Years. Old
Child.

f.A Child.
From the Citizens Journal. Atlanta.
Texas
Tuesday morning, Aug. 13. the editor
| OF the Journal, in company with G.. w.
Taylor. the stablenan OF Linden, Texas,
drove out seven miles northwest OF Lin
den to the residence Of Mr.. John Miller
We were received and well entertained
| by Mr.. and Mrs. Miller. Their son, Bu-
] ford j. Miller. at about four years DID,
became pale and weak and nothing
seemed to do him any good He con-
tinued in this condition until he was
about twelve years old, at times eating
too much for one or two meals and then
eating but little for weeks afterward.
At IL years OF age his feet and legs began
to swell. and develop into what his ply
siciaHs said was bad case OF dropsy
MIR. Miller had two good physicians
to treat him: first DIR. A. j. oliver, OF
Linden. and then DIR. J. p. Mills. of Al
mira. Texas They both, after making
trial. gave up the case. They could
not benefit the patient.
Mr.. Miller then tried a number of
patent medicines. without any good re-
suit. He had spent much money and his
son Buford appeared to have no blood,
no appetite. and was so weak that he
could not walk hundred yards with
cut stopping to rest. Mr.. Miller had
given up In despair when one day a
neighbor, Rev. s. @. Echals, who lives
near Linden. advised him to try Pink
Pills.
Mr.. Miller said be had no hope, and
did not want to make the trial. but his
neighbor insisted. The next question
was where could he get the pills. He
went to Jefferson and found that J.. f.
Crow. druggist, had them MIR. Crow
was an old neighbor and friend and
persuaded him to give the pills a thor
ough trial, promising that IL he would
take three boxes and Buford received
no benefit from them he would charge
nothing. Mr.. Miller took three boxes Of
Pink Pills home with him, and says be-
fore Buford had taken one box there
was a wonderful improvement. This
was about eighteen months ago. To-
DAY Buford Miller Is stout, hearty
young man about nineteen years old.
We met several of his schoolmates at
Linden who state there has been q won-
derful change In Buford Miller. He Is
well known by the people of Linden.
His mother. Mrs. Miller. was also
afflicted with dropsy about seven years,
After seeing that Pink Pills were bene-
fiting her son she concluded to try them
for herself This was about year ago.
and she remarked that IL ii had not
been for Pink Pills she did not know
what would have become Of her. She
had no symptoms Of dropsy the past
spring. She said too much can not be
said In praise Of Pink Pills.
Mr.. Miller referred us TO J. f. Stove
all. the druggist in Linden; Eb. Frar-
xier, merchant. and many others who
are we'll acquainted with his family
and know the facts
DR. Williams Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves They are for sale by
all druggists. or may be had by mail
from DR.. Williams Medicine Company.
