This is a PLAIN, straightforward account
OF farmer who worked too hard, who
became helpless through stroke Of pa
ralysis, but who had the good fortun, to
be attended by an honest doctor, who cured
him by prescribing DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People.
The farmer is William Stimpson. His
farm is near Rugby, Ind. Like thousands
OF other intelligent, hard working men Of
his vocation he owns valuable property and
is considered by his neighbors wel1-to-do

The upper streets of the town are even
narrower than those near the landing, and
to reach the crest of the hill on which
slope the city is built, you must thread

made of poles stood apart at the bottom
and drawn together at the top. He had
small stone fireplace on one side. and on
the other a nest-it could not be called
bed. He had piece of white cloth about
his head and his feet were bare, We told
him We should not think his food would
be good. He said it was not. His bread
was not half baked. His hut was near n
mill pond on which he had floating gar
den, a raft of logs with soil enough on
them to grow vegetables. The way in to
his habitation was through a grove OF
young wild trees interspersed with bear

Their stock Is at par at the grocery store
For things that the farmers need.
