from the Express, Los Angeles Cal.
Two years ago, back in Eastern Iowa,
Miss Maude Lease began to 60 into a
decline. She lost flesh rapidly. Her
appetite failed. Fearful headaches
nearly drove her frantic. She consulted
local physicians-good, honest, practi-
TONERS. They told her that her lungs
were affected; that medicine might
alleviate, but change of climate was
the only remedy that offered prospect
of cure.
Ill and respondent she delayed as
long as possible her departure, but at
last it became imperative, and she
came to an aunt at Verdi, Nevada, in
the hope of finding health and strength
in the pure air and among the pines of
the Sierra Nevadas. But she con-
tinued to fail, and to add to her mis-
cries, learned to know the anguished
sufferings which attend that complica-
ton of ills, that for want of better
nomenclature, has been denominated
''female weakness. F"
And now comes the miraculous part
of the story, just as she told it to the
interviewer last night:
II ran down to 118 pounds" she
said, suffered tortures from those ter
rible headaches and from sleeplessness.
My aunt persuaded me to try DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I
had used nearly every kind Of 'prescrip-
ton, could get no relief from them,
and hoped for none from these pills.
But to please auntie I began to take
them. From the first day I noticed q
beneficial effect. The headaches grew
less severe; my appetite gradually re-
turned. I could sleep nights and be-
gan to get good and strong.
81 used to take one of them three
times day. In two months I weighed
1873 pounds, and was entirely we'll, and
have been we'll ever since. The win
tiers at Verdi were very cold and, be-
sides, had heard 80 much about South
ern California that I came to Los
Angeles.
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills have
helped me more than anything have
ever taken. I thank them for my
health and ability to enjoy life. am
living at No. 800 Hope street, Los An
geles, and shall be only too glad to re-
peat what have just said to anybody,
either in person or by letter."
So spoke young and attractive Maud
Lease, and no one who saw her big eyes
snap as she said it could doubt the
earnestness and sincerity Of her state
ments.
And that is why we say the story of
miracle is floating through the air,
although now the miracle has become
an established fact.
