New York, contributes valuable ,testi-
monial 10 aud to the mary from all parts
of the country as 10 the efficacy of DR..
Williams Pink Pills in chronic rheu-
matte troubles Of long standing. Mr..
Seifert's is indeed a most re markable
case, and interesting from more stand
points than one. He said to reporter /:
My name is Herman Seifert, my age
4S years. am blacksmith BY trade,
and my residence and post office address
is Bridgewater. New York. For nearly
20 years was Que of those unfortunates
who never knew what 1T is to feel we'll
from that most aggravat1ng OF all dis
eases, rhuematism. This first came on
from the effects of cold when I was
quite young. and was laid up in bed for
four months. Then was abls to get up
and 90 about a little on crutches, but
soon WAS down again, and this state OF
affairs continued for several months
longer. Towards warm weather got so
could get oct and do little work, but
Just as / would think. ] Was getting bet
ter, down 1 would noome again, and be
confined to the housesfor another spell.
/ had every doctor who lives anywhere
within twenty miles of me, but they did
me little it any good. They and l used
often to think was better, but back the
yheumstism would come with uDerring
certainty. we would get discouraged. and
i would get another doctor.
This thing went on for about 16
years, until about four years ago, when
George Brown, who Ia now in cheese
factory in Pennsylvania. and had been if
anything worse than was with rheu-
Matiam, came to see me. To my aston
ishmsnt he had mt sign Of rheumatism
or any other sickness about him. From
being a cripple he had become active as
a boy, and of course l asked him what
wrought the change. He told me that
DR.. Williams Pink Pills had done the
business, and went into such ecstacies
over their virtues, thRt was easily per-
suaded. to try them in my Case. I bought
six boxes at once, and went to taking
them according to directions. l began
to experience immediate relief. The
swelling in 10Y joints began to subside,
my bowels began to work normally,
and no longer suffered from that griey-
Gus constipation that had marked the
whole course of the disease. Tho 1atipg
left my tongue, which became clean. /
had no longer those pains il the region
of the heart, and inside of one year was
IN good, sound bodily health, and con-
tlnned in that condition until this
spring, when felt the symptoms of the
old trouble returning | lost no time in
lay lug Ill announcer SUOI6 Cl T10 Fl0k Fills,
and began again to take them. Before ]
had finished one box all signs OF rheu-
matism lett ME and | aun as sound as
ever. end work continually at my forge.
am now in IS good health MS a man can
BIS, and never have even twinge OF the
old torment. l make this certificate be-
lievina it to he my duty SO to do, and adj
wise everybody who has rheumatic trouble
to take DIR. Williams Pink Pills. I!

cured.
