--=All Bent Over and Helpless

From the Ne1c Era McMinnuiUe, Tenn.
Three miles southeast of the lovely little
city of McMinnvile, Tennessee. nesting at
the foot of the beautiful and grand Ben
Lomond" mountain, are many pretty and
comfortable homes-located on fertile land.i
and shaded by grand and majestic forest
trees.
In this locality Mrs Morris Gaf1in lives.
with her sons in comfort and contentment.
Understanding that Mrs. Gaf1in had been
greatly benefited by the use Of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, IA reporter of the McMinnville
Ne,o Era sought an interview. With this
purpose in view visit was made to the
home of Mrs. Gaffln, and she was found TO be
one of those pleasant little women whom one
meets with, now and then, in the constantly
recurring changes in life. She gave the re-
porter a cordial welcome, and upon learning
the object the unexpected CALL she bright
ly responded. "Well l know of no reason
why | should object to an interview If the
report is not exaggerated: ! am personally
indebted to DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and il
my testimony can be the means OF helping
some one else who suffers as | suffered I
surely ought not to withhold it.
"a year ago last October l caught q severe
cold which resulted in rheumatism In my left
side. causing me great deal of suffering. l
used plasters and home remedies, but OBJ
tanned very little relief until the January
following. did not suffer this severe pain
any more until March. In stopping terrible
pain struck me right in the small OF the back.
and in few seconds had branched down my
left side, extending even to my toes. had
to call my son to assist me into the house,
and from that time the'pain was almost un-
bearable. For six week l had no restful
sleep. During that time l used all the old
remedies and many new ones, even sending
to Chicago for medicines, but none of them
did me any good. | was all bent over and
drawn up until could scarcely get about at
all, and oh! how did suffer!
"Finally, one day, told my son when he
started to town. to bring me a box OF DIR.
Williams Pink Pills; that had tried every
thing else, ,and they might do me some good.
He brought the box and at once began to
use them according to directions. and | be-
gan to improve by the time l had taken the
fourth or fifth pill, and when l had
finished the box | was entirely relieved, and
could walk about as erect as ever. But
sent for another box. That was in June Of
last year, and have never had a pain since.
Every morning when awake l am thankful
and think how good it is to lie in such COM
fort. thank DR.. Williams Pink Pills for the
wonderful relief they brought me.
"Did you ever have the toothache2" she
asked. swell, If you have. you will know
something about the pain l had. 1t was
nothing more or less than a toorhache in the
hip-it was an excruciating pain"
