Throat Paralysis.

From the Courier Herald, Saginaw, Mich.
1t was publicly talked all over Glare
county, Mich, for some time before
the Courier Herald sent reporter to
Dover to fully investigate the Coulter
matter. He finally went, and we pub
lish today his full report. The Coul-
tiers are prominent people, though Mrs.
G. in response to the question whether
she objected to being interviewed, said,
Certainly not Her story follows:
about fourteen years ago we de
cided to take up our abode in Dover
and everything went along smoothly
for several years, business progressed
and being of saving temperament we
accumulated quite an amount. Our
family increased as the years rolled by
and we now have five children living,
the Oldest Is, youngest 8, but sickness
made it's way into our household, and
doctors bills flooded upon US, until we
have nothing left but our home, and
these sweet children. Everything
went to satisfy the claims of physi-
clans.
About three years ago l had a
miserable feeling at the back of my
ears, my right hand became paralyzed
and the paralysis extended to my arm
and throat, and would affect my head
and eyes, sometimes for days would
lose my sight, my face was deformed,
lifeless as it were, my nose was drawn
to one side and presented pitiable
appearance and never expecting to re-
gain my natural facial expressions.
employed the best physicians that
could be procured, expanding thou
sands of dollars for their services but
could not obtain relief. At last they
stated my case was beyond the reach
of medical skill, and it would be but a
short time until the end would come
This certainly was not very encourag-
ing to me, but never gave up hope.
In connection with receiving the at
tendance of physicians 1 have tried
every medicine known to the apothe-
cary, but never received any relief un-
til DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People came to my assistance. Before
1 had taken half of the first box the
deformity in my face had left me, and
before four boxes had been consumed
the paralysis had disappeared entirely
and much to my surprise l felt like a
new woman. l have not taken any
medicine since last spring, just about a
year ago, and my trouble has not ap-
peared since. 1 owe my health, my
life, to DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
IA short time since my little boy
John was afflicted with st. Vitus
dance. He could not walk across the
room without assistance. in fact he
would fall all over himself, but after
taking few boxes OF DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, st. Vitus' dance entirely
left him, and no trace of the affection
is left. These pills are worth their
weight in gold. You may say in this
connection that am willing at any
time to make affidavit to the truth of
these statements, and furthermore !
will answer any communication con-
erning my case, as consider it moth
ing more than right and just that l
should assist suffering humanity. I"
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, Schenectady, N. Y, for SO
