CALL A SPADE A SPADE"
SOME PEOPLE TOO MODEST TO
CONFIDE IN THEIR PHYSICIAN.
A Woman Cured of a Serious Disease
by a Certain Method, the Only
Drawback of Which Was
1t "Mede Her Too
Fat.O

From the Evening News, Detroit, Mich.
The doctor came in haste and found
his patient again In great agony from
a splitting headache. It was his fifth
call on the same patient, and each time
TO treat the same trouble. He was an
old doctor. skilled and careful, and
was annoyed that his prescription pro-
duced no results. With suspicion that
his diagnosis was incorrect and that
he was treating q symptom, ana not
the disease. he said to her: Madam,
it is useless for me to visit you again.
You are keeping from me facts ana
symptoms which 1t is necessary
should know, and unless you tell me
all I can do you no good" and with
this prepared to go. The patient broke
down (she was in nervous state) and
acknowledged that, through false
modesty, she had not told him all. Then
she told him how she had suffered from
some female weakness or other, etc,
etc, for years, but had kept 1t from
him-too modest to speak. The old
doctor was Disguised at such prudlsh-
ness, as any sensible person would be,
but when he knew the facts, cured her
easily and quickly.
The case which follows differs from
the above, only in the fact that the
patient is not afraid to speak, ana 10
call a spade spade"
Words fail to describe the suffering
I endured before I used DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People" said Mrs.
Alexander B. Clark, Of AT Michigan
avenue, Detroit, Mich. For five years
[ have suffered from ovarian troubles,
and was confined to my room for
months at a time have undergone
two operations for this trouble at the
hospital, and seemed to grow worse In
stead of better.# l had the best doctors
and the best nursing, but for nearly
five years l was not free for one single
day from the most fearful headaches
and intense tWitching pains in my neck
and shoulders. We never had two
doctors that could agree as to the
nature of my trouble, and each one
suggested q different remedy.
q know now that all my untold suf-
ferings, during and after the operations,
were unnecessary and We're merely due
to an experiment of the doctors.
'.You would scarcely believe, to look
at me now, that for about three days
every week for nearly six years, had
to stay in bed. Those headaches would
come on me every week regularly First
1 would notice black spots. before my
eyes, and tnen Il NOulu ~ pittlu, anu
send for the doctor
..At first they would treat me for in
digestion and dyspepsia, then finally
acknowledge that something else caus-
ed the trouble. During these spells l
was so nervous that / could not bear
to have my husband walk across the
floor, and as the doctors said there was
no medicine that would reach my
trouble, 1 consented to the operations,

In January Of this year there was
an article in the Evening. News about
the druggists that sold DR.. Williams
Pink Pills in Detroit. I told my hus-
| band was going to try them and he
said, try anything.
"The next morning I went into Muir
ply Brothers drug store and bought
box of DR.. Williams Pink Pills. Mr..
Murphy said he had g. big sale for the
pills and personally knew many people
who had been helped by them. 1 took
| the pills as directed, but was not help
| ed a bit, and I told Mr.. Murphy so,
but he suggested that I give them
better trial. Before I had finished the
second box I began to feel better and
went down and bought dozen boxes.
| When had taken six boxes my head
| aches were gone, but I continued using
| the pills until 1 had taken the twelve
boxes.
Just think what 1 have suffered by
operations and vile medicines, when a
simple remedy that we see advertised
every day cured me after the best ply
sicians had failed.
There is only one thing against DR..
Williams Pink, Pills for Pale People,"
continued Mrs. Clark, they made me
fat Since I commenced taking them,
in January, l have gained twenty-six
pounds. I remember the many times
when my friends came to see me, when
I was so thin and weak, that they eX-
pected to hear that I was dead the
next week. Today am perfectly well
and never felt better In my life. and it
is all due to DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. That is why recon-
mend them to every woman. still
take one pill every night, not because
1 need it, but as a preventive. My
husband has bought me wheel and
am learning to ride, which they say
will reduce my weight but shall con-
tinue using Dr. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People just the same even if
they make me weigh more than I do
now"
