FRIENDS OF THE YOUNG MAN BELIEVE
 THAT HE HAD A MARROW ESCAPE
 FROM DEATH.-AN INTERVIEW WITH
 MIR ROBINSON.
 Ural Robinson was student at a business college in Canton, until re- gently when he was compelled to give up his studies and return to his home at Osnaburg, Ohio. This was the begin ming of an illness that brought him near to death, as will be seen by the fol- lowing interview:
 ''I broke down all of a sudden" says MT Robinson, II had headache all the time and was a nervous wreck. Forthree months was under physicians s care and, although I spent considerable money for medicines, nothing helped me. At this time severe attack of rheumatism came on and made me helpless. My limbs and hands were swollen and caused me intense pain, could not move without suffering ago. nieS and solid food distressed me. The medicines my docter gave me would not stay on my stomach, consequently 1 became greatly reduced in flesh and was so weak I could not leave my bed.
 My mother had great faith in Dr Williams Pink Pills for :Pale People and suggested that I try them. I was agreeably surprised to find that my stomach would retain these pills and soon saw that l was being bene- fted. By the time that had finished taking the fifth box I was thoroughly cured. My cure was permanent, too, and I have never enjoyed better health since being cured by pr Will Hams Pink Pills"
 MT Robinson's address is Rural Free Delivery No. l, Osnaburg, Ohio, and his remarkable cure of a complication of nervous trouble and acute rheuma- tism can easily be verified.
 MT Robinson suffered from two causes-a nervous disorder and a dis ease of the blood. No other remedy would have been so we'll adapted for his case as Dr Williams Pink Pills be- cause they act both on the blood and on the nerves. It is this that consti- tutes the secret of Dr Williams dis covery and that makes these pills diff ferent from any other medicine. IL has been proven that Dr Williams Pink Pills have cured such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St Vitus dance, neuralgia, rheumatism, sciatica, nervous headache, the after effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions and all forms of weakness in either male or female. They are sold by all druggists, or direct from Dr Villains Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, NY.
 Price, fifty cents per box; six boxes, two dollars and a half.

one which does genuine credit to the hu-
man heart. No stingy fellow ever origi-

ring. Good things, It asserts. like ruddy

any system that does not with strong, pulls

every region of the globe-in China, India,
Persia, Europe. America. and, most likely,
Patagonia. They were too good to keep
