From the Journal, Le.eiston, Ne

The people in the pretty village of
Leeds Center. Me-, have watched with
some interest the restoration to complete
health of Mrs. W. l.. Francis. wife of the
postmaster So general were the COM
mentS on this interesting c-se that the
writer who visited Mrs. i-lancis and
learned from her that the statements re-
gardirg her troubles and her subsequent
eXtricatiOn thercfrom are entirely true.
That others may be benefited by her
experience. Mrs. Francis has consented
to allow her story 10 appear i'll print.
IF there is anything on earth | dread
more than another she said. ''it is to see
my nalne in the papers. But in this case
l cOnIler my repugnance and give pub
licly the same credit To the savior Of my
life as L would 10 one who had dragged
me from Il death beneath the waves. In
fact, have eXtolled my preserver 50
enthusiastically and unreservedly: have
sought out sufferers and recommended the
remedy To SO many friends and ac-
quaintances that already my neighbors
jocularly call me, Pink Pills Francis
But really, my recovery is something that
consider wonderful. | know that there
are so many testimonials of medicine in
the papers nowadays that people do not
pay as much heed as formerly. but | do
wish folks who are suffering would re-
member that what | say comes right from
the heart of woman who feels that she
had new lease of happy life given 10 her.
"Eleven years ago | was afflicted with
nervous pr0stration. My existence until
two years ago was one of dragging mis-
cry. Anyone in the village will tell You
of my condition. Ny blood seemed ex-
hauSted from my veins and month after
month | grew weaker. | was able to
undertake only the lightest household
work, and even then ! could perform it
only by slow and careful movements
During all these sorry months and years
/ was under the care of this doctor and
that but their medicines helped me only
spa medically. and then | fell into re-
lapScs more prostratng than ever.
In the night | used TO he awakened
by the most eXcrnciating pains ill my
heart and side, and was obliged to use
pellets Of powerful medicine that the doc
tor gave me for relief in such attacks.
At last my condition became so grave that
l went out only infrequently. We live
mp Stars, You notice. over my husbands $
store, and in descending the stairway |
fTo2nently was obliged 10 sort of fall and
slide over the steps in order to descend
such was the strain on my system re-
suiting from even this slight eXertion. Oc
casionally i visited the neighbors, but |
was obliged TO sit and rest 10 recover
breath while ascending any elevation. In
short, il did not seem that L could live.
"One day / saw an advertisement of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
and although my faith in remedies was
weak by that time, | sent for Il box and
tried them. That was two years ago.
Now / call myself Il We'll woman. Isn't
it wonderful!

half. Why, even the first box of pills
helped ME. L can walk miles now; can do
my Work easily; have gained in weight
constantly, and you would scarcely be-
lieve it, but n little while ago | was ex-
amined for endowment life insurance and
was accepted unhesitatingly after care

DO you wonder that I'm shouting
Pink Pills all through our village? l
haven't taken any of the remedy for
some months. for it has completely built
me UP, but ut the first sign of trouble |
know to what refuge to flee.
Last year my aunt, Mrs. NJ. A. Bios
som, of Dixfield, p. O.. was here visiting
tality and heart trouble, but she was
skeptical about my remedy that l was
50 enthusiastically advocating. At last,
however. she tried it and carried some
home with her when she went. a little
while ago | received 4 letter from her
and in it said. L am cured, thanks to God
and Pink Pills She also wrote that her
been restored by the remedy.
I'VE feel up this way that such sover-
cigu cure cannot be too widely known.
That is the only reason why | allow my
name To be used in this connection. |
know also that by personally recommend
ing them / have helped many of my
friends back to health. FOR | never let an
opportunity pass when word OF counsel
may direct some one.
One of the persons to whom Mrs. Fran
els recommended Pink Pills is Station
Agent c. II. Foster, of Leeds Center, and
the reporter found him patrolling the plat
form awaiting the arrival of the morning
train. Mr.. Foster who IS one of the most
