History of Horace Robertson. OF John.
o County, Iowa.
From the TINES, West Branch. lo,oa.
Horace Robertson is a prosperous farm
er of West Branch, johnson County,
Iowa. He is Il veteran of the late war.
having served for three years apd twenty
one days in the Tenth Iowa Infantry.
Since the war he has further lone his
DUTY as Il good citizn by serving several
terms as township clerk, trustee and su-
pervisor.
Mr. Robertson suffered excruciating
pain for years, suffered as only u confirm
ed rheumatic can suffer. At his work il
was an unwelcome. eyer present compan
ion, While his nights We're rendered most
miserable by the raclsing pains of this
this disease. He told a reporter who was
Interested in his case aud who is asso-
ciated with him in the noble order OF the
Grand Army of the Republic. TINT he has
been confined TO his bed for days at Il time
and that the pain in his back and legs
was almost uncomfortable and made him at
times almost helpless. He has been treat
Ell from time to time by different physi-
Clans and has taken several kinds of pat
ent medicines, all of which afforded him
but little if my relief. MIR. Robertson was
also afflicted with disease of the kidneys,
from which he could find 10 permanent
relief. He could not retain his urine,
hat1I wac liglilS Sbltttt. anu WIS COLL
PEELED TO get up several times during each
night. He has also ut times been wholly
unable To control the movement of his
legs, they having lost their natural pow
ers. In fine, Mr.. Robertson was a eorely
afflicted man, both from rheumatism and
disease of the kidneys.
He tells the reporter hat many months
ago he was induced to try Pink Pills for
Yale People, put up at Schenectady, N.
Y. by the DIR. Williams Medicine Com
pany. Had only taken these pills a short
time when he began to experience relief
from both rheumatism and kidney trou-
Die. After taking them regularly for sew
eral months he found most happily that
the racking pain was gone from his back,
as also the lncessant ache from his legs.
The kidney trouble also showed great
improvement, so much so that for a long
while he has been able to comfortably re-
tain his urine by getting up only once
during the night. He is now not entirely
free from kidney trouble, his urine being
scant and somewhat colored. He thinks,
however. that this may be attributable
to the fact that he has not taken INV
RINK Pills for some time. and also that
he has been working very hard of late.
Mr.. Robertson told the reporter that he
believes himself cured of rheumatism and
thinks it probable that a further and per-
sistcnt use Of Pink Pills may complete the
cure of his kidneys already so happily
improved. He is now able to do a good
days work for Il man verging on GO years,
has n tair appetite and sleeps quite well.
MIR. Robertson has now the best health
ne has had for years, and he says that
Pink Pills have accomplished this happy
result, and to them he gives his grateful
praise. and also recommends these valu-
able pills to all who are similarly afflicted.
Should any one doubt the truthfulness
OF the above statement md Mr.. Robert
sons character as II truthful man, the re-
porter suggests that such persons write
to Mr.. A.. {. Hunter. postmaster Mt West
Branch. Iowa, for confederation.

the elements necessary to give new life
and richness TO the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale by
