felt stronger, and the unconscious spells be-
gan TO diminish in number and in length and
| stopped taking the medicine left me by the
physician. When that box of Pink Pills
was gone I purchased another. and before
half of that one was gone, l began to feel 30
much better that told the attending physi-
clan what / was taking. = { first he laughed
at the idea, but when l toid him that ] was
not taking any of his mcticine he began TO
wonder, and at last told lie TO continue TAX
ing Pink Pills. l did so and inside of six
weeks l felt as well as ever. The uncon-
scious spells left me-. my appetite returned
and it was soon decided TO send me back to
college when the January term opened. In
January l went back TO school, but inside
of a week l was back home again with the
same nervous trouble. ! at once began to
take Pink Pills again, lut this time my con-
dition was so much worse than before, that
/ had to take seven loxes of them. They
cured me though, and inside Of two months
was my old self again.
And now comes the strange part of my
case. / was always q heavy smoker, al
though / knew that an extremely nervous
person like myself should not smoke nt all.
The habit grew on me until found myself
smoking all the time. There was scarcely
moment during the day that 1 was without
q cigar, cigarette or pipe in my mouth: IT
1 became the least bit nervous about anything
1 would smoke, and the more smoked the
more nervous would get, and then would
have TO smoke again. / came to be smoke
fiend," and the habit grew on me day by
day. One night in the summer of 1894, l
started out to make a call on friend. had
been feeling badly all day. / stepped into the
doctors office on my way and told him how l
felt. He examined me and told me to 20
home and to bed. But l laughed at his
earnestness and saying that / would feel all
right again in little while, went and
made my call. 1 had felt nervous all day
and had smoked unusually hard. / reached
my friends house and was taken into the
parlor where l sat down on the couch.
was engaged in telling those present of the
peculiar feeling / had experienced all day
and of the doctors anxiety concerning me,
when, without moments warning / pitched
head foremost on the floor. This happened
about eight o'clock in the evening. eWhen
l regained consciousness it was nearly three
o'clock in the morning. / was still lying on
the floor and the doctor and trained nurse
who was in the house, were working over
me, while all about me stood my friends. /
did not know what had happened, could not
remember a thing concerning the evenings
escapade, but as soon as / opened my eyes
the doctor told me TO get up and walk around
and see if / would not feel better. This |
tried to do and was astonished and alarmed
to find that i could not move even my arms.
l could move my head, but that was all. A
grave look passed over the doctors face
when / told him this but he and the nurse
succeeded in getting me back on the couch,
then they drew the couch into bedroom
where the doctor put me to bed. slept
little, but III the morning / was no better.
/ could not even lift finger, and all of my
limbs felt numb. They gave me my break
fast, and later on the doctor and another
man came with closed carriage into which
they lifted me, end i was carried home and
placed in bed. For almost six weeks l lay
on my back unable to move, while one could
stick pin into me without my feeling it. 1
was utterly powerless to move hand or foot.
Some one had to feed me ard to turn me
over when / wanted to change my position.
/ remained in this state for about four weeks
when sent for another supply of Pink Pills.
These I began to take regularly, and within
two weeks was not only able to use my
arms, but to walk around little with the
aid of crutches. Ter two weeks longer my
legs refused to perform their allotted duty,
but at the the end 2f that period . was able to
their aid. / continued TO take Pink Pills,
however, and inside of three months after
was taken i'll, felt all right again. Pink
Pills for Pale People cured me, as l can
prove to the satisfaction of any person who
wishes to know.
al am married now, and am well, happy
and healthy. have never had recurrence
of nervous trouble in any way since l re-
covered from my temporary paralysis, and
owe my marvellous cure and present good
health to Pink Pills. will always speak
kind word for them, and recommend them
for nervous trouble, for if they can cure
person in the condition that / was in, twice
in my life, they can cure any nervous trou.
BILE that exists. 1 am positive of this and /
want you to say so if you publish this testi-
monial. am glad of this opportunity to
say good word for Pink Pills"
