them" said Mrs. Osborne, knew what was
the matter with me. Some said bad rheu-
niatism, while others frankly admitted that
they did not know. / was at hrst taken
with pneumonia. One Of my feet panied
me almost constantly, then the doctors pro-
nounced it rheumatism.
Gradually, but steadily the trouble grew
and spread until my entire body was IN
volved and was utterly helpless. Then we
changed doctors. No relief came, and we
changed again. We tried nearly all OF the
local physicians, and / was taken away TO
the baths. Nothing did me any apparent
good, and / suffered very much. :,
1T is now six years since became unable
to walk. Afterwards grew worse and was
absolutely helpless: Braces were used in
the hope of Strengthening my limbs SO as to
make me able to walk, but they did no
good.
81 was completely discouraged and so
were my people. My friends gave me up
| to die, and the doctors, each one OF whom
at first declared he could have me walking
soon, all declared that | never could walk
again. l had no longer any faith in any
| doctor or any remedy"
Finally, alter persistent effort her friends
induced her to take DIR. Williams Pink
| Pills, but against her will, for she was dis
couraged. She says of the results:
81 noticed TO change after taking the first
| box or so hut they asked me to give the
medicine a fair trial, so they kept on pre-
scribing it.
IL took no other at the time, so that if any
| good were to come we would know what had
| brought it about. Pretty soon a change was
| noticed. My muscles became more flexible,
and l suffered much less. AT the end OF
three months / found that l could move my
limbs, could lift myself up, and was no
| longer helpless. l kept on and still refrained
| from every other sort Of medicine:
"In one year from the time | began the
use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People | could walk, something all the doc
| tors had decided never could do again.
"At first, having been helpless for SO long
/ could not trust myself to walk on the
street, as l felt afraid. Soon, however, ]
| grew more confident, and walked every
| where as well as ever, and have been doing
| so ever since. 1 took the pills for two years,
| cure was complete. Before took them /
was wreck, and now my general health is
very good"
Miss Osborne was repeatedly questioned
as to her opinion of what cured her, and she

been growing steadily worse until she had
began using them, and as she used no other
