"Why everybody knows the good
that DIR. Williams Pink Pills did me,

Mrs. Francis Leek, of room 80, 1905
Market street, San Francisco, CAL,
answered the question whether she had
taken DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. AS she looks the picture
of health her story was the more sur
prising.
You would hardly believe it," she
continued, "but l was an invalid for
ten years. spent 81, 900 being treated
in hospitals in Chicago for rheuma'
tism, neuralgia, nervous prostratlon
and fibrous tumors, and then to think
that | spent only So in Pink Pills and

to think I spent so much and then got

granddaughter, at least she calls me
grandma, though am not really her
grandmother. One day we were rid

gan to read, Pink Pills for Pale Peo-

would rattle it off just as if she had

she would get it turned about and say,
grandma, what is Pale Pills for Pink

an invalid today, do II"
1t was perfectly true that Mrs Leek
did not look much like an invalid, and
it is no secret that she was married only
about six months ago. She said that
she always keeps the pills by her bed
side, and produced a handful of the
little round boxes as evidence of her
faith in them. 81 have had it on my
mind to write to DR.. Williams direct
and thank him for all the good they
have done me; but one thing and then
another came up and I have not writ.

Mr.. Francis Shulty, of 712 Taylor
street, said: Eyes, the Pink Pills did
for me all that was claimed for them.
