Terrible Suffering.
From the Capital, ST. John, Kansas.
Your correspondent in an interview with
Mr. John Mcmillan, who resides at st. John,
Kansas, elected the following information
concerning the wonderful curative proper
ties contained in DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mr. Mcmillan said:
SIN the fall of 1894, ] with another man,
decided upon hunting expedition INTO the
Indian Territory. Accordingly we started
south late in the fall. The weather was
damp and cold, and we were compelled to
sleep ON the ground with nothing put a tent
for protection. The exposure coupled with
the bad water, which in that country con-
tains great quantity of alkali and gypsum,
caused me to contract a bad case OF Kidney
trouble and rheumatism, something had
never known before. After remaining in
the Territory for several months and con
tinuing to grow worse, concluded the best
thing for me to do was to come home, which
/ proceeded to do. But after returning L
seemed to get no better, if anything worse.
81 tried several remedies without avail
Nv nights were spent in sleeplessness and
misery, and | became convinced that
must have help Immediately. Someone
told me the benefit they had derived from
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and determined
to give them q trial, which did, and can

had a recurrence of my trouble from the
time of my recovery until the present time.
] can certainly recommend DR.. Williams
Pink Pills as one of the best medicines on
the market, if not the best"
In conclusion Mr.. Mcmillan asked us II
we intended making his statement public,
and upon our affirmative reply he remarked
that he was perfectly satisfied, as he had
often contemplated doing so himself, as be
considered it duty he owed to suffering
humanity.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, IN n
condensed form, all the elements nece ssary
to give new life and richness to the blood

General A b. Campbell committed
suicide in a Chicago hotel last Mon
day night. He was at one time a
prominent figure in Kansas politics,
having served as chaplain of the state
penitentiary under Governor st. John
and as adjutant general by appoint
ment of Governor Martin. He was
also adjutant general of the G. A. r..
department of Kansas, and a leader
in the temperance movement, which
followed his conversion to its princi-
pies by the noted temperance lectur-
er. Luther Benson. Campbell was
lawyer, but formerly a minister of the
Christian or ssCampbellite'' church
which was founded by his uncle, Alex

life he wrote a letter stating that his
rash act was the result of grief for his
wife and only son, recently deceased.
