Editors Net1 Era. Greensburg, Ind. :,
DEAR SIRs: Your kind letter received
and I am glad to lave the opportunity to
tell you about the sickness and recovery OF
Mabel. We don't want any newspaper no
toriety, but in a case like this where o few
words OF what I have to say may mean re-
covery for some child, l feel 1t my duty to
tell you of her case.
saTwo years ago this winter Mabel began
complaining Of pains in her limbs, princi-
pally in her lower limbs. She was going to
school,, and had to walk about three quar-.
ters OF a mile each day, going through all
kinds of weather. h was thirteen years
old and doing so well In her studies that !
disliked to take her from school but we had
to do 1t.
'For several months she was confined to
the house, and she grew pale and dwindiee
down to almost nothing. Her legs and
arms were drawn up and her appearance
was pitiful. Several doctors had attende(
her, but It seemed that none Of them die
her any good. They advised US to take he
to the springs, but times were so hard W
could not afford 1t. although we finally
managed to get her to the Martinsvillt
baths. Here she grew suddenly weaker
and 1t seemed that she could not stand 1t
but she became better, and 1t seemed tina
she was being benefited, but she suddenl.
grew worse, and we had to bring her home
"She fingered along, and last winter be
Jane worse again, and was afiicted with
nervous trouble almost like the st. vitus
dance. For some time we thought sh'
would die, and the physicians gave her up
When she was at her worst a neighbor cam
In with a box OF DR.. Williams Pin Pills TO
Pale People and wanted us to try them q
they were advertised to be good for suci
gases, and her daughter had used them fol
nervousness with such good results tina
she thought they might help Mabel.
"We tried them. The first box helpe'
her some, and after she had taken three
boxes she was able to sit up In bed. Whel
she had finished a half dozen boxes she wa
able to be out and about. She has take
about nine boxes altogether now. and sh
is as we'll as ever, and going to schoo
every day, having started in again thre
weeks ago. Her cure was ~undoubtedi
due to these pills."
