A Thirteen Year-Old
Child Paralyzed.
1t Was Caused BY q Nervous Affection,
and Rendered One Arm Lifeless.


A happy family is that of Mr.. James
Mckinney, of Hills lale, Kansas, ON whom
a Times reporter recently called His bus
mess with thes e people was to learn the facts
for his paper of the cure of their Is year
old daughter from case of nervous pros
tratlon, and the facts were learned from
Mrs Mckinney herself, who quickly told
the following story:
The first perceptible result of her ex-
IRENE nervousness was apparent in halting
step of the child in her right limb said
the mother, land a physician was called in
TO attend her. Noapparent change coming,
another doctor was called to attend her.
She continued to grow worse, although we
thought the doctors helped her, until she
lost the u.@e entirely of her right arm, which
hung listiess, and apparently lifeless by
her side'
THE physicians finally told u.s." contin-
ued Mrs. Mckinney, g that Mary would
outgrow it in time, but by accident my
nus band picked up circular in his shop,
which so highly recommended Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, that we concluded
TO try them. Mr.. Mckinney procured box
at Grimes drug store in Paola, and we be-
gan by giving Mary half pill OF q time,
ana ai gradually increasing to one pill at a
time, and before we had used one box we
could see they were doing her good. This
was one year ago. She had been suffering
at that time for four years, under the doc
tors, and we were SO encouraged over the
good effects of the use of DIR Williams Pink
Pills, that we continued to use them, and
the child started to school again and has
been able to attend school ever since, grad
ually getting stronger and in better health
all the time as you now see her, and we
don't notice the old trouble any more
Yes, we are always ready and willing to
recommend DIR. Williams Pink Pills, and
do so all the time to our friends" replied
Mrs. Mckinney to our question; and con-
tlnuing, she said: ave do not know what
the doctors called Mary's affection, but we
TOOK 1t to be something like paralysis or ST.
Vitus' dance, and we became very much
alarmed about her.
Our local physician" she says, "now
tells us that DR.. Williams Pink Pills are as
good thing as we could use; and while
Mary is apparently well, she has occasional
attacks of nervous headache, and then she
says: Mamma, must take another Pink
Pill, so you see she has great faith in them,
but does not like to have us talk about her
late affection"
MIR. Mckinney is as much or more en-
thusiastic over the great benefit done his
daughter through the use of these pills He
SAID: Nothing too good can be said by
me of DR.. Williams Pink Pills-they are a
great medicine
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, in a con-
densed form, all the elements necessary to
give new life and richness to The blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are also q
specific for troubles peculiar to females, such
as suppressions, irregularities and all forms
of weakness. In men they effect radical
cure in all cases arising from mental worry,
over-work or excuses of whatever nature
Pink Pills are sold in boxes (never in loose
bulk) at 80 cents box or six boxes for g. so,
and may be had Of all druggists, or direct by
mail from DR. Williams Medicine Company,
