Facts Vouched for and Sworn to.


Dr, Williams Pink Pills for Pale People

fourteen years Of age, had the terrible ner-
vous affection, known as st. Nltus' dance,
and has also been greatly improved by the
use Of these pills.
In relating his experience to Tribune
reporter, he said:
81 have had the annoyance nearly twelve
.vears. consisting chiefly Of scrofulous tumors
on the back of my neck and head. l tried
many remedies without receiving the relief
desired. Ii was after persistent efforts OF a
friend 10 induce me to use Pink Pills for Pale
People. that yielded, and the result is that
now I cannot express my thanks tittingly to
that friend for his persistency- kn0,c these
pills are good thing for scrotula. You can
see for yourself the dry marks and red spots
left on my neck, where formerly were ernpt-
ions that emitted matter and the vilest
bumors of the blood. Now they don't even
itch. and believe am practically cured.
90 want to tell you too. about the great
benefit my daughter, who is now fourteen
wears old, also received from the use OF Dr.
Williams Pink Pills. For two years she
had St. Vitus' dance and we did everything
we could hear Of to relieve her, hut have
never found anything that equals these pills
She has used four boxes and Is nearly cured
