stored and the Use of Lin bs Re-
gained. a sworn Statement

Many will remember the excitment
that attended the first cure OF case
of genuine locomotor ataXia, which &C.
ago. This became known as the Ham
ilton miracle, and attracted widespread
attention. 1t has now been positively
proven that a case OF this extreme
nervous disorder has been cured near
Chicago by the same remedy that eff
fected the Hamilton miracle, and that
has cured hundreds of other cases
throughout the country. This most
recent cure was that of Samuel Cur
mock, of 81 Twenty-second avenue,
Melrose Park, Ill. He was born in
England less than thirty years
ago, and before coming to this coun-
try lived in Ireland and the Jersey ISL
ands. The story of his miraculous cure
is best told in his own words. He
says:
EARLY in 1898 l began TO experience
worn out feeling and noticed that /
became tired after very slight eXertion.
l continued at my work in the ma
chine shop until July 2, 1898, when 1
suffered from a fall, and after that
time grew rapidly worse. A physician
was called and pronounced my trouble
locomotor ataxia. He treated me for
four months, and there was no i'm
provement in my condition. I was told
that my case was incurable and that
/ would continue to grow worse until
death relieved me. 1 was not confined
to my, bed, although l spent much Of
my time lying down, and was entirely
unable to work. / could hardly stand;
it seemed as if my legs would give
out from under me, and my movements
were like those of a drunken man. "A
cold numbness came in my right side,
and / lost the strength OF my right
arm. Then my eyes began to blur so
that I could see nothing distinctly, and
in short time / became totally blind
in my right eye.
Last December an account appear
ed in the Glasgow Weekly Mail, a
Scotch newspaper, of cure in case
similar to mine, which was effected by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie. l was so impressed by the ac
count that I began taking the pills,
and within a month 1 was SO much
improved that I determined to persist
in the treatment. At the end of the
second month l was able to return to
my work, and have not lost day on
account of illness since that time. Since
1 began taking the pills l have gained
thirty pounds in weight, can walk al
most as well as ever, and my sight is
fully restored.
81 firmly believe that Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People saved my
life and enabled me to again earn my
livelihood, and 1 can recommend them
to any one suffering with locomotor
ataxia or any other severe nervous dis
order even if pronounced incurable, as
I was. SAMUEL CURNOCk.
