thereby extending the contracted sciatic
nerve which was the seat of trouble. Mr..
Peterson, unwilling to subject his body to
such severe treatment, objected. thinking
that it could be made better, if not cured, in
some more humane way. All kinds of patent
medicines had been tried. At times he
thought he was enjoying the comfort aud
pleasure of partial relief, but soon he
would he back III the same old rut, making
his life one of misery and affection. Instead
Of life being one OF Improvement and joy, it
was one Of continual toll and suffering.
Electric currents, which have gained such q
foothOld among the remedies for rheumatic
and neuralgia pains, were tried with only
partial relief for o while. He was treated
by nearly every physician in the county.
Al kinds Of medicines were tried without
avail. Much money had been spent in vain.
Still was this disease like vampire sucking
away at his miserable life. The doctors
finally gave him up, saying nothing could
relieve him. They had tried every remedy
known 10 the medical world, and now they
thought it best to Keep the money which
was being spent for doctors bills end medi-
zines and make his last days Is pleasant for
him as his miserable condition would allow.
He was placed before a State Board of PEN
sion examiners and was tod that it would
be useless 10 pend any more money in this
direction or TO Try 10 improve his health, for
it was an impossibii,y. Ash now thought
the elimination had been reached, but, not
10 be bafiied by despair, he still sought means
by which his miserable life could he made
| more happy. 81 As long as there is life there
is hope" He saw an article in the paper
which stated that a distinguished lumber
nlan in Michigan had been cured of q case
resembling his own by DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. He then renewed
dozen boxes. and by taking pills one day
rested the following night better than he had
rested for years. So severe was his case that
he took them nearly six months. He began
10 gradually mend and is now n hale and
hearty nan. tic now goes anywhere on the
farm that he desires, and is row able TO write
good, plain hand and sign his name TO his
| vouchers, and is able 10 do his chores abou,
the Eouse. While he is too old TO labor
hard, he is in such a condition that he can
spend his last days here On earth in peace
ard comfort. e.
These pills were not known to this Sction
of country till Mr.. Peterson tried them, and
now they can be had ct any drug store.
Hundreds of boxes have been sold on account
of the reputation of this one case. At least
half of the people not knowing the name of
the pills, call for 'the kind Mr.. Peterson
tried"
