For eight months past / had not been
able to comb my hair, dress myself or walk,
and had to be fed during all this time like
babe: Well, the first pills l remember dis
tinctly, I took on a Saturday, and the follow
ing Monday I found this Improvement;
namely, my nerves seemed to be firmer and
my pains less. ! wish to state that at this
time, for the last four months had not slept
over an hour at time, had suffered so great.
~ from nervous prostration, to the extent that
the least noise would completely upset me
and make me shake like one having the ague.
This Monday evening / was sitting in my
chair, and bear in mind, my daughters house
was full of company making more or less
all that commenced to feel easier, strange
and quieting feeling l had not experienced
since that Christmas afternoon was stricken
down. / called to my daughter and said,
ada, / don't know what has come over me,
feel so restful and actually feel sleepy, 1
think | will try to go to sleep could see
that she was surprised and pleased. Imme-
diately she undressed me and put me to bed.
81 slept soundly from 8 o'clock till l
o'clock in the morning, and that mind you
| with a house full OF people. remained
awake but a short time, feeling better than l
| had for months, and went into sound sleep,
never waking till z o'clock in the morning.
1t was very hot down there in August, but
| from that time / slept and rested well. Then
/ felt and saw an improvement gradually 60
ing on. The first thing [ noticed was, that
the swelling in my hands was going down,
and after several weeks assumed their natur-
al shape, and the tightly drawn skin, which
looked like glass disappeared altogether as
well as the pain. Before this time when
ever tried to close my hands my finger
joints would crack and the same cracking
sounds I heard when bent my elbows or
tried to raise my arms as high as my Shout
ders. All this left me and also all the. fierce
rheumatic pains all through my body. /
came back to Chicago entirely cured, feel.
| ing hale and hearty, and that after having
used the miraculous Pink Pills of Dr.. Viii.
liams' for about four months. l suppose
had taken during these four months about
one and a half dozen boxes.
ut is now over three years ago that all
this happened, and have never felt better
in my life. You can see for yourself that
am pretty spry on ny feet. have no pains,
no aches nor anything that would suggest to
me now, the terrible time had then. There
is another thing, wish to say IN regard to
the Pink Pills, which to me Signifies q great
deal. That is when the weather changes,
tfrom extreme heat to extreme cold, or from
dry weather to raw, damp, chilly weather,
as we had the past two weeks, and have every
little while in Chicago all the year around
feel twinges and little pains in my shout.
ders or in my arm, or perhaps it may be in
my side, all have to do is to take q few Of
the pills for day or so and they take every
/ indication of those pains away.
with the exception Of the periods when
the weather is frightfully miserable, / have
not taken any pills since / was cured. And
the pills I have taken since have not been
for my old trouble, but simply for colds
which have tried to settle in some parts OF
nay body, and which the pills have instantly
driven out. also wish to state that the pills
have cured my heart trouble, and in fact
am in perfect health in every respect"
