A few ,SArs ngo q wave of La Grippe
swept Ovey he land and brought thousands
Of its victims to the grave. Others who es-
caDed the fIte Ii Jed on in sorrow and suffer
ing. broke, m health and spirit.
Terrible 80 was the disease its after effects
wxne yet more appalling, as il sought out the
weNknesses Of :ke constitution and left thou
sands Shattered wrecks of their former selves.
A few days ago u COuricJ-Herdid represen-
txtive, while at the thriving little town of
Akron, Mich. met John l.. Smith, veteran
Of 1.-THE industrial army, on whose aged head
the disease had T. len, and he heard him tell
how he had So sered and what had given
him relief.
We can do no better than quote his own
words, which are as follows: about
seven years ago was taken down with the
Grip and it fastened on me very hsrd.
For about half the winter was SO bad that
could not leave the house. / was chilly all
the time, and could not get warm. felt as
II was frozen soliil, and could only breathe
with great difficulty.
"This condition ilternated with sweating
spells Of great violence. There was an al
most continuous pain, and it would shoot
hofA one part of my body to another, with
great suddenness, and cause me intense suf-
fering. Sometimes it was in my hips, then
iu&my legs, and aglin it would g. to my
held aud pain me in the eyes. II was so in
II called in medical assistance, hut this
was rfruitless, as | received no benefit from
physicians. From then ON | tried various
prepM& ,tions that were recommen led 10 me,
but they did me no cool. and my cOn3i ion
was as bad and painful us it was before
I tried them.
Finally. saw an advertisement of DR..
Wi1liams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and
read with much interest of the wonderful
cures that they mud effected in so many
csscs- ] had tried so many proprietary prep
. mrations that l had no faith in it, but tried
IL, as had SO many other things, to see il
they we're of any use.
Zone day when was feeling as had as
usual j got box of Pink Pilis and shortly
! before gazing 10 bel took one pill. ] cannot
tell You what . surprised man | WIS next
morning. Then put on my shoes With ease.
= thing that had noe done for forty years.
A little while after this was SO yell lSa.
