There is probably no one better known In
Sedalia, especially among the members of
the First Baptist Church, than Mrs. Mollie
E. Roe, the wife of Mr.. Roe, the nursery
man, and nothing is better known among
the lady'S acquaintance, than that for the
past four years she has been a physical
wreck from locOmotor ataXia. in its s~everest
form. h she has recently recovered her
health, strength and normal locOmotion has
been made apparent by her being seen fire.
Quently on the streets and in church, and
this fact induced q representative of the
Capital to call on Mrs. Roe to inquire into
the circumstances of her remarkable recov-
cry. Mrs. Roe was seen at her house at the
corner of Ohio Avenue and Twenty-fourth
Street, and seemed only too glad to give the
following history of her case for publica-
ton:
-Four years ago." she said, II was at
tackled with a disc use which the physicians
diagnosed as locoHotor ataxia, and was
speedily reduced to a mere wreck. i had no
control of my muscles, and could not lift the
least thing. Ny flesh disappeared, until my
bones almost pierced my SKIN. The sense of
touch became so exquisitely sensitive, that
l believe / could by walking ever the soft
est carpet blindfolded, a counted every
seam, SO it may be imagined how / felt
when trying TO move my uncomfortable
limbs.
THE most eminent physicians were con-
suited, but they gave me no relief, and l
was without hope, and would have prayed
for death but for the thought of leaving my
little children. AL thought of recover
had gone, and it was only looked upon as a
question of time by my husband and my
friends when my troubles would end III the
grave.
lone day while in his condition, l re-
ceived a newspaper from some friends in
Denver, with a news item marked, and
while reading it my eyes fell upon an ac-
count of a remarkable cure of lOcomOtOr
~ataXia, by the use Of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, and the case as de-
SCribed was exactly similar to nv own. /
at once made up my mind to try the remedy,
and began according TO directions to take
the pills. The first box had not gone when
l experienced a marked improvement, and

boxes in all, and after two years of the
most bitter suffering was a. well as l ever

Mrs. Roe owes her recover to DR.. VIII

is nothing in the world like them.
