Malaria and Rheumatism.

From the Journal, Wilmington, Ohio.
Oh one or the fertile farms of the
rich Ohio Valley, seven miles from Will
mlngton, the county seat of Clinton
county, Ohio, and but short distance
trom the small town of Melvin, their
postoffice. in a cozy, little country
nome, resides John Arrasmith and his
wife, Minnie.
a few days since a representative of
the Journal drove out to Melvin to see
them. In the course of the conversa-
ton, Mrs. A. detailed the facts of her
cure:
Last July" said she, from undue
exposure in my work about the farm, /
contracted malarial fever and rheuma-
tiSm and suffered from the illness
greatly. L could not throw it off, and
although constantly attended by local
physicians, continued to grow worse.
In September L caught a severe cold,
which greatly increased my other
troubles, and taking to my bed there
L lay for months. The rheumatism
grew more aggravated, and for eight
long weeks prior to last Christmas 1
was perfectly helpless, my limbs below
the hips being as if paralyzed and l
having no use of them whatever. l
could not help myself in any way, and
was not able even to turn over in bed
unless my husband or some one else
SetiiiS anu me. MeUlClueS WHICH
the physicians left did no good, and
nothing I could take afforded any re-
lief. l was discouraged and feared
that never again would 1 be up and
about the house. 1t was anything but
bright prospect, for l was but twenty
years old, had been married only two
years and my life was before me and
to go through it helpless cripple, a
burden to my friends, was fearful
fate to think Of
Il had read in the Wilmington Jour-
nal from time to time articles telling
of the wonderful cures which had been
effected by DR.. Williams Pink Pills,
and had become impressed with the
cases where they had caused persons
to walk and recover who had been as
helpless as L was. Consulting my hus-
band, we determined to give them a
trial. So he drove into Wilmington,
and, going to the drug store of George
w. Brown, bought three boxes of the
pills. l began taking them immediate
ly on his return. That was about the
first of the present year. Before the
first box was gone 1 began to realize
that I was getting better, and by the
time 1 finished the second box the pain
with which 1 had been suffering for
nearly six months and the disease
which had made me helpless for eight
weeks disappeared entirely and 1 got
up. 1 took the third box of the pills
and have never felt a twinge of rheu-
matism since, and 1 am doing my daily
work and feeling as we'll as anybody"
To confirm the story Mrs. Arrasmith
made the following affidavit:
Sworn to before me and subscribed in
my presence, at Wilmington, Ohio, this
29th day of June, 1895.
