A DOCTOR WHO WAS EQUAL
TO THE EMERGENCY.
From ,he Ne,pa, Yo,lno,to,rn. Ohio.


An interesting little story was told your
reporter recently by Mrs f. A. Lawson, OF
No. 357 Custer Avenue, Youngstown, Ohio.
She had been an invalid for eighteen years
and had been examined and treated by
many physicians, among them the skillful
DR.. A. NJ Clarke. They all diagnosed the
case in the same way, and all insisted that
an operation was necessary, except DR..
Clarke, who maintained that proper treat
ment could cure her. Her entire left side
was paralyzed and her heart became affect
ed This soon developed into true organic
heart disease In January, 93, she became
so bad that she had to take to her bed for
three months. Now comes the interesting
part of the story, Hear what Mrs. Lawson
says:
zone morning, ] believe it was April Q,
1893, the doctor changed the treatment and
gave me in its place a supply of pills of
peculiarly pinkish color. They were pleas
ant to the taste. After taking several the
surprised to find me considerably stronger
and more hopeful. During my illness
read a great deal and in one paper l noticed
testimonial which had been given by o
prominent government official relative to
the merits OF proprietary remedy. They
were called DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
when the doctor next called l said to
him: Doctor, are you prescribing patent
medicine to your patients now, 10 this he
smiled and answered: We'll, Mrs. Lawson,
whether it be patent medicine or not, Just
so it does you goodP
ITO make a long story short, in two weeks
j was able to sit up and shortly after could
walk about the house. At the DOCTORS sug-
gestion bought six boxes of the pills and
used them strictly according to directions.

thereby hoping to recuperate more quickly
and was continually taking the pink pills.

go home; rs strong as 1 had felt before l
became afflicted, and to-day am as well as
l was when l was twenty. I'm tlftytwo
years old uown
