and Rendered One Arm Llfeless.
tFrom the Times, Paola, Kansas)
A happy family is that of Mr.. James
Mckinney, Of Hillsdale, Kansas, on whom
Times reporter recently called. His bus
iness with these people was to learn the facts
for his paper Of the cure of their ID year
old daughter from a case OF nervous pros
tration, and the facts We're learned from
Mrs Mckinney herself, who quickly told
the following story:
1.-The first perceptible result of her ex-
treme nervousness was apparent In halting
step OF the child in her right limb" said
the mother, "and physician was called in
TO attend her Noappirent change coming,
another doctor was called to attend her.
She continued to grow worse, although we
thought the doctors helped her. until she
lost the use entirely ofher right arm, which
hung iistless, AID apparently lifeless by
her side"
The physicians finally told u.s." contin.
ued Mrs. Mckinney, that Mary would
outgrow it in time, but by accident my
husband picked up circular in his shop,
which so highly recommended DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, that we concluded
to try them Mr.. Mckinney procured a box
At Grimes drug store in Paola, and we be-
gan by giving Mary half pill at time,
and gradually increasing to one pill at
time, and before we had used one box we
could see they were doing her good. This
was one yenr ago. She had been suffering
1T that time for four years, under the doc
tors, and we were so encouraged over the
good effects of the use OIL DIR Williams Pink
Pills, that we continued to use them, and
the child started to school again and has
been able to attend school ever since, grad
ually getting stronger and in better health
all the time AS you now see her, and we
don't notice the old trouble any more.
"Yes, we are always ready aud willing to
recommend DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and
do so all the time to our friends" replied
Mrs. Mckinney to our question; and con-
tinuing, she said: ave do not know what
the doctors called Mary's affiction, but we
took it to be something like paralysis or st.
Vitus' dance, and we became very much
alarmed about her.
"Our local physician" she says, "now
tells us that Dr. Williams Pink Pills are as
good thing as we could use; and while
Mary is apparently well, she has occasional
attacks of nervous headache, and then she
says: Mamma, l must take another Pink
Pill, so You see she has great faith in them,
but does not like to have us talk about her
late affliction.''
MIR. Mckinney is as much or more en-
thusiastic over the great benefit done his
daughter through the use OF these pills. He
said: "Nothing too good can he said by
me of DR.. Williams Pink Pills-they are .
great medicine"
