Mr. Ebridse Waterman is q well known raii-
road engineer Of the baltimore and Ohio Southwest
ern Railway. who has been a great sufferer from
nervous debility of aggravated kind for the
past ten yeas. The strain was telling on his
nerves terribly, and steady work was impossible.
The following 1 his story:

fersd as few men have, with Nervousness. heart
trouble and rheupi-tism. I have lived the foot

and nervous strain slowly but surely undermined
my constitution. / WIS focced to quit work, and
there seemed to be little prospect OF my going
back TO the throttle again. I tried every remedy
that could nnd. but none Of them did me any
good 1 consulted doctors all the country,
and then would come attack severe

money ave spent during that time for doctors
and medicine none OF which dii me any permanent

comparative afifuence. IL had Ii. An idea of how
much time and money lost may he gained when

totally unable to work four months on n stretch

1 have gone through.
But rheumatism not the only thing ]
suffered from. My heart troubled me very much,
and 1 was totally unable to sleep for days and
weeks Mt a time. When I would drop cf into a
duzc, my heart would beat itself almost out OF my
eosom, and would wake up Us :hongh / had
been struck by a trip hammer I had twitchings
In my arms ana legs. and was altogether I'm such
a condition that my wife and friends began 10
consider me beyond reach OF medical assistance.
Il was almost Of the opinion nys,If SThen

from an old soldier in the west who had been
cured OF rheumatism by DR. Williams PiIk Pills

went to the drug store and bought six boxes Of
them, In order to give them thorough test, and in
few days began to feel the improvement they

able to 60 to work, and have worked ever since
without a lay-or, which is something l have not
done for years.
Tho first improvement 1 noticed was In my
heart, which grew more and normal in its
action, until at last Ii did not trouble me OF all
and was able TO sleep / had not been able

rheumatism seems to be cured also. and does not
