governor Of Virginia, with the deter

Speak From Experience


Mr.. William Fl. Whiting, a resident OF
Mt Holly, Va, says: when the Civil
war began ! was living in Buffalo and
there l joined Co. +. Of the 10th New
York Cavalry. In 1868, while serving
with my company, ! received saber cut
across my back that caused paralysis.
For eight mouths was obliged to lie in
the hospital at Washington, d. g. /
afterward tried many doctors, but with
little change for the better The paraly-
ais remained as bad as ever suffered
from chills and my general health was
not good
This continued until about eight
years ago when | read in newspaper
of the cures affected by DR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. began
taking the Pills and soon found they
were doing me good. In six months
time l was completely cured. The pa
ralysis has not returned and never
have the chills now. My general health
is also better than when began taking
Pink Pills for Pale People. ! always
keep them with me and in the eight
years that have passed since first took
them, have Eever had occasion to call
on doctor
II have recommended DIR. Williams
Pink Pills to many people. One Of
them, Mrs. Mary Cortney, sent me word
a few weeks ago that they bad saved her
life. She was near death when she be.
gan taking them, but they have so
