William Simpson Stricken with Pa
ralysis of His Lower Limbs
Caused by OyerWork.

Many of our readers may remem-
Der and item in this paper year ago
last fall which stated that Mr.. VIII
liam Simpson, we'll to-do farmer
living near Ragby, Ind, had been
stricken with paralysis of the lower
limbs, and his recovery was doubtful.
The case which was an unusually
severe ard complicated one has at
last been entirely cured, to the ut
most surprise and Joy Of Mr.. Stimp-
son and bis family.
Mr.. Simpson was pleased to relate
to a reporter the particulars regard
ing his case, and his subsequent
recovery.
"a year ago last fall" began Mr..
Simpson, Il did large amount of
| work. My hired help left me in the
middle Of corn cutting and finished
the fall work myself, doing an unsual
large amount of work. I put up
several hundred shocks of fodder,
and also husked all my corn. To
accomplish this I had to work early
and late.
about the first of December; as l
was getting my fall work about done,
1 suffered stroke OF paralysis, which
the physician said was brought on by
excessive labor. My left limb was
entirely helpless and my right limb
was fast becoming so. My physi-
clan became uneasy, and after attend
ing upon me for week or so, he
brought me box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, saying
that he believed they would do me
more good than anything which he
knew of as he had used them with
great success in a case very similar
to mine where all other remedies had
had failed. The case in question
was that of L. Phillips, Of Peters
vile.
sAbout the time I began taking
the second box of these pills decid-
ed change was noticed, and when I
had taken two more boxes we discov-
cred that I was actually getting well.
You can probably imagine what
relief and feeling ofrgladness this was
to me, alter beng confined TO- my
bed for nearly two months. Well, [
kept on taking the pills according to
directions, until I had consumed nine
boxes of them, which completely
cured me.
II am sound and we'll to-day, with
not a sign of the returning affi!ctlon
and can affirm that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People did me a
wonderful good and probably saved
m fr n the grave"
To allay all doubt as to the truth
of his statement, Mr.. Simpson made
out the following sworn affidavit;
Rugby, Ind, Feb. 2, 1897.
This is to certify that I do hereby
swear that the foregoing statement
is absolutely true.

The New Era was also informed
that Mrs. Charles Williams, of the
same ne'ghbolhood, had been cured
of rheumatism, and Henry johnson,
of Hartsville, who was troubled with
neuralgia, was also cured by DR..
Williams Pink Pills. It seems that
this remedy is in great demand in
that neighborhood.
