a. Johu Leahy, well-known school,
.-'.hsr of Kokomo, Indiana, makes the fol-
-, -; well written statement regarding
- 1Iness from rheumatism and compIi-
-,;on Of diseases and subsequent cure:
sTbree years ago, when was 50 years
uTwas attacked with rheumatism. 90
S-.rnsuied with marked and increasing
s:-,nrbsnces Of the nervous system, pains
he head, and most serious Of all, symp-
s.1s Of organic heart trouble.
sThe cardiac Inflammation increased as
.he rheumatism progressed, and il was not
srreat while before the heart trouble as
med the chronic form Nv brain was
Cpch disturbed and my physician was
EARNED, fearing meningitis, as the articu-
= inflammation diminished while the
ssrebral disturbance increased. But Twas
ssnared this additional infection. lam thank
~ 10 say, for again the joints began 70
well. and the pain in the head to suhside,
though it settled into q dull rheumatic
headache. which no skill Of the physician
nould relieve.
sTOf course, during the early stages Of the
disease was confined 10 bed. Then got
m and tried TO move around q little, and
rally think l became used 20 the pain
1T was in the spring Of 1898 when was
srst afflicted. For three years the disease
cnutiuued, during which time / was at
tepded by the best physicians in the state,
s1ue of whom are considered at the head
a their profession in the west. These gen.
Iemen. though jealous and splendid dag
nOsticians, could not help me. They could
sU describe my disease. and tell me better
how felt than l could myself, but their
remedies had no effect on me whatever. l
was fearful sufferer from insomnia. and
the nostrums which l took TO superinduce
sleep were legion. in addition to other
troubles. nv stomach gave out altogether;
think probably from the preparation Of
sslicylic acid, with which had been abun-
dsntlv dosed. i could not assimilate food,
and lost flesh until became almost = szele-
ION. Ny condition Of nerves at this time
cannot be described Terrors by night and
terrors by day were indeed mine, and
though generally utterly unreal, they were
lust as tormenting as though they had the
most material existence.
so matters continued until the spring Of
mis- year March, 1859. i was still failing
ui became more OF a wreck every day,
wen a friend of mine, a Druggist in Lo-
gngOrt, Indiana, recommended me TO try
Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
Ssrag that they had recently cured a Gus
taEsr Of his who had been similarly afiiicted
and in as bad plight as / was.
II did not at once act on my friends rec
onmendation. but after two or three days
did so and bought supply
Now, there Is no eXaggeration in what
am about to write, for il Is the honest truth
! had not taken DR. Williams Pink Pills
two days when ] began 70 get relief. First
Of all my nervousness and that duh. wicked
headache showed signs of abating, then my
sore and painful joints grew easier, my
stomach and kidneys began to do their
work once more. my tongue became clean,
al foulness disappearing, and better than
al my heart became normal in its action.
Before lad taken four boxes l was
well and hearty man; and / now eat, drink,
sleep and work as well as anyone. and after
three years OF suffering such as mine. il may
be imagined that am more than tolerably
happy and contented with life.
Il have recommended DR. Williams Pink
Pills to many, among others nv sister, Mrs.
Ellen Patton. Of Chicago, Ill, who is q
rheumatic sufferer, but have not heard as
yst what they have done for her.
