SAID while i'll he was never able TO re-
tam his food and al certain times OF
day he was attacked with an agonizing
pain which lasted an hour or so, when he
acted as mailman, breaking chairs. etc.

time being. Food never staid in MS
stomach longer than half an hour Yes

alive and looking well. 1 asked after his
health. He said he has been we'll for
Eeight. l wanted 10 know what doctor
had cured him. This is what he told me:
About year ago or over, man came to
his store telling him ne had been sick
very much the same as he was for some
time. and tried Railways Pills. which
quickly cured him. He at once decided

For years I have been troubled with
rheumatism and dyspepsia. and came 70
the conclusion to try your pills. l i'm
mediately found great relief from their
use I feel like a new man, since com
menced taking them, and would not now
be without them. The drowsy sleepy
feeling 1 used to have has entirely disap-
peared. The dyspepsia has left me and
my rheumatism Is gone entirely. l am
satisfied If any one SO afflicted will give
Railways Pills a trial they will surely
cure them, for I believe it all comes from
the system being out of order-the liver
not doing it's work
