as had never had sick day before.
For four weeks / was between life and
death, and when became better I found |
was cripple from the rheumatism. have
read many descriptions of the sufferines Of
others with this almost incurable disease
but 1t seems as if no one could suffer more
than did with it. For three long months
was confined to my bed and was a great
care to my friends and required their assist
ance to be turned over. For nine months
after l could leave the bed used my
crutches and tried every known remedy n
had pile twelve inches high of rec$ :

SO l wrote him to send me his remedy.
How glad | was when his letter came. I
tore it open and there was only a clipping
from q newspaper describing DR.. Williams

Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, and
stopped taking any other remedies, and be-.

not speak too highly of DR.. Williams Pink

A"Si9ce thor I have been exposed to all
sorts OF weather and have not been troubled
with the old rheumatism. Last year | acted
as foreman for the Empire Fire Proof Co.,
and for six months was out in all kinds of
weather and never noticed touch of the
disease. never gave q testimonial before
and before was sick never took any stock
in these pills. ] only wish now L had taken
them from the first. They certainly do all
and more than is claimed for them. |
am now as we'll as before my trouble, and
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
made me a well man again"
