History Of Horace Robertson, q John.
son County, Iowa.
tFr6m tho Times, West Branch, Iows,)
Horace Robertson is . prosperous farmer
Of West Branch, johnson County, Iowa
He 10 veteran Of tho late war, having
served for three years and twenty. days
in the Tenth Iowa Infantry.
Since the war he has further done his duty
as good citizen by serving several terms as
township clerk, trustee and supervisor. In
all Of these positions he has served with that
modesty and singleness Of purpose that In.
variably brings a. reward unstinted COM
mendstion and appreciation.
Mr.. Robertson suffered excruoiating pain
for years, suffering as only confirmed rheu-
matte can suffer. At his work II was an un-
welcome, ever present companion, while his
nights were rendered most miserable by the
racking pains Of this disease. He told .
reporter who was interested In his case and
who is associated with him in the noble
that he had been confined to his bed for days
at time and that the pain in his back and
legs was almost uncomfortable and made him
at times almost helpless. He had been
treated from time to time by different physi-
clans and has taken several kinds Of patent
medicines all Of which afforded him but lit
tie il any relief. Mr.. Robertson was also
afflicted with disease Of the kidneys from
which he could find no permanent relief
He could not retain his urine which was
highly colored and was compelled to get up
several times during each night He has
also at times been wholly unable to control
the movement Of his legs, they having lost
their natural powers. In fine Mr.. Robert
son was sorely afflicted man both from
rheumatism and disease Of tho kidneys.
He tells the reporter that many months
T. I'll, to t,,V D{r1- Ia
Pole People put up at Schenectady, N. y,
by the DR.. Williams Medicine Company.
Had only taken these pills o short time
when he began to experience relief from
both rheumatism and kidney trouble. After
taking them regularly for several months
he found most happily that the racktng pain
was gone from his back as also tho incessant
ache from his legs. The kidney trouble also
showed great Improvement, 50 much so that
fortably retain his urine by getting up only
once during the night. He Is now not en-
tirely FREQ from kidney trouble, his urine
being scant and somewhat colored. He
thinks, however, that this may be attribut-
able to the fact that he has not taken any
Pink Pills for some time md also that he has
been working hard Of late. Mr.. Robertson
told the reporter that he believes himself
cured Of rheumatism and thinks 1t probable
Pills may complete the cure Of his kidneys
already so happily improved. He is now
able to do good days work for man verg..
Ing on sixty years, has a fair appetite and
sleeps quite well. Mr.. Robertson has now
the best health he has had for years and he
says that Pink Pills have accomplished this
happy result, and to them he gives his CRATE
full praise and also recommends these valu-
able pills to all who are similarly afflicted.
Should any one doubt the truthfulness Of
the above statement and Mr.. Robertson's
character as truthful man, tho reporter
suggests that such persons write to Mr.. A.C.
Hunter, post master at West Branch, Iowa,
for confederation.

elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are for sale by all druggists,
