COULD ONLY BATPEPToNOIDs
BUT PINK PILLS MADE 1T POSSIBLE
TO EAT ANYTHING,



from the Star, Washington, D. G.
''Dr Williams Pink Pills miraculousiy
cured me OF two diseases and haye other wise
done me a vast amount OF good" said Mrs
E. A. Meeker, OF No. 0O7 Third street, South
east Washington, d. c., to Star reporter
to-day.
"For many years was sufferer from
muscular rheumatism in its worst form, aud
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 and not
only extended into my left arm almost para
| lying Il from the shoulder to the elbow but
/ attacked my hips and limbs with such ve-
hemence that Il was impossible for me to 20
out on the street without being supported
| by an attendant,
~ was attended by four different physi-
| cinns-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 1 tried everything of
the sort that was recommended by my
friends.
"During the greater part of this time my
husband aud son were urging me to take DR..
Williams Pink Pills but steadily refused TO
do so.
"About two years or two and half years
ago. the physician who was then attending
me. and / have had none since, said to me,
Mrs. Meeker there is no use for me to come
aud see you any more, you have muscular
rheumatism, disease incident to old age,
and you cannot be cured. l will give you
some iron for your blood, and when this
prescription runs out you can get il renewed.
III you get much worse you can send Tor me,
but will not again call until l am sum-
moned'
"0f course was much discouraged, but
still tried n noted massage treatment thor
oughly, but without the slightest effect. At
last my husband persuaded me TO try the
Pink Pills.
II want TO say that when 1 began taking
the Pink Pills IL 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 rs directed by the makers,
and about the end of the month 1 found, to
my great surprise, that my stomach was so
much better that l had no longer TO subslst
on beef peptonoids, but could begin to in
dulge in more solid food.
$50 l told my husband thar rs the Pink
Pills were evidently doing me good would
try them for another month.
'I continued TO use them as directed and
during the second month my eyesight, which
had been very bad for a long time began to
improve and it was much more pleasant for
me to go on the street, though l still had to
be attended on account of my weak limbs.
"How many boxes of the Pink Pills took
in all could not begin to tell rs there were
periods when l would stop using them for
week at a time. But from the time l COM
meneed until l felt could safely cease taking
them was about fifteen months.
Sometime after my eyesight began TO
grow better, my memory, which had been
defective and caused me much trouble for
long time, returned and became as good as
when l was many years younger Dur
ing the period to which l refer had
great difficulty in remembering where had
put anything, but. as | 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 l40 pounds
TO 112 pounds, but while was taking the
Pink Pills 1 gained 50 pounds and l now
weigh 1888 pounds.
"Some Of my friends freely asserted that
my flesh, as they noticed my increasing
weight, was not solid and predicted that
would speedily lose II. Such, however, has
not been the case, although have not taken
any Of the pills since last December. All my
rheumatism having by that time disappeared
since which time have had no return of the
dread complaint have been told that the
disease will visit me again, but If 1t does, ]
shall again resort to the use Of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
"With my experience with DR.. Williams
Pink Pills / have not hesitated to recon-
mend them to others who were afflicted. My
niece, who lives nea- Eillsboro, Londoun
County, Va, suffered for long time with q
peculiar disease OF the hips aud limbs / be-
lieved the medicine which did me so much
good would cure her also, and bought three
boxes of them aud sent TO her She took
them and was cured completely of her COM
plaint."
