item IN this paper year ago last tall
which stated that Mr.. William Simpson,

the lower limbs, and his recovery was
doubtful.
The case, which was an unusually Sc
we're and complicated one, has at last
been entirely cured, to the utmost sur
prise. and joy of Mr.. Simpson and his
, family.
Mr.. Simpson was pleased to relate to
! reporter the particulars regarding his
case, and his subsequent recovery.

Simpson, Il did large amount Of work.

myself, doing an unusually large amount
of work. put up several hundred shocks
of fodder, and also husked all my. corn.
To accomplish this had to work early
, and late.
"About the first Of December, as I was
getting my fall work about done, 1.suffer-
ed a stroke of paralysis, which the ply
stefan said was brought on by excessive
! labor. My left limb was entirely helpless
and my right limb was fast becoming So
My physician became uneasy, and after
attending upon me for a week or so he
brought me box of DR.. Williams, Pink
Pills for Pale People, saying that he be-
lieved they would do me more good than
anything which he knew of, as he had
used them with great success in case
very similar to mine where all other rene
dies had failed. The case in question was
| that of l.. Phillips, of Petersville.
"About the time | began taking the
| second box of these pills decided change
how bod fO1yn two
| more boxes we discovered that | was &C
| tually getting well. You can probably
| imagine what relief and feeling of glad
ness this was to me, after being confined
| to my bed for nearly two months. Well,
/ kept on taking the pills according to d.
rections, until had consumed nine boxes
| of them, which completely cured me.
81 am sound and well to-day, with not

affirm that DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
