A MINER RESCUED.
A Dubuque Man Was i'm a Situa-
ton of Great Pain and Peril
and " as Almost Hopeless.

"In the lead mines 1 was at work on
my knees with my elbows pressed
against rock walls, in dampness and
extremes of cold" said Mr.. j. q. Meu.
KEEL, of 1915 Jackson avenue, Dubuque,
Iowa, in describing his experience to
reporter, "and it is not surprising
that l contracted rheumatism. For
three years l had attacks affecting the
joints of my ankles, knees and elbows.
My ankles and knees became so swol-
len that l could scarcely walk on even
ground and little pressure from a
stone under my feet would cause SO
much pain that l would nearly sink
down. l was often obliged to lie in
bed for several days at time. My
friends who were similarly troubled
we're getting no relief from doctors
and did not feel encouraged to throw
money away for nothing. By chance
l read the story of Robert Yates, of
the Klauer Manufacturing Co. of Du-
buque, who had very bad case of
rheumatism l decided to try Or,
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
the remedy he had used. In three or
four weeks after beginning to use the
pills, l WAS much better and in three
months l was we'll. The swelling of
the joints and the tenderness disap-
peared, could work steadily and for
eight years have had no return of
the trouble. My whole family believe
in DR.. Williams Pink Pills. Both my
sons use them. We consider them a
household remedy that we are sure
about
This is convincing testimony, easily
verified. from plain, earnest man,
who knows that he has escaped the
clutches of terrible disease and who
is profoundly grateful and anxious to
help others.
Mr.. Meukel is thrifty miner, and
well-known citizen of Dubuque.
No one could imagine that he had
reached his SEVENTEEN year as he is
seen going to his daily work with
vigorous step and erect bearing. DR..
Williams Pink Pills did more for him
than simply give relief. They eradi-
Gated the disease by getting at the
seat of the difficulty in the blood
These pills are equally efficacious in
the treatment of other obstinate
troubles such as locomotor ataxia, par
tial paraly sis, nervous headache, after
effects of the grip, anamia, and all
forms Of weakness either in male or
female. They are sold by all drug
gists, or may be obtained directly
from the Dr. Williams Medicine Co. +,
