Inspector Jordan Crippled with Infiainna-
tory rheumatism. A City Official OF
Lynn, Mass, Tells How he was Cured by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
There is scarcely city or village from
the Atlantic to the Pacific which has not Its
quota of rheumatic cripples. That much OF
their suffering and Inconvenience is unnec-
essary is proven by the fact that a specific
has been found for rheumatism in all Its
forms, remedy that has cured extremely
stubborn cases. The statement OF a recent
cure should give encouragement to the
most hopeless sufferer.
Charles +. Jordan of No. New Chatham
street, Lynn, Mass, Inspector OF sewer con-
struction in that city for many years, was
for long time afflicted with intlammatory
rheumatism in his feet, which made him
unable to walk.
sit is hardly necessary to say that my
condition was extremely painful, he says:
s'The rheumatism settled in the joints and
made me helpless so far as walking was
concerned. The skin became very tender
and sore and | suffered agonieS every time

"My sister-in-law advised me to try Dr..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and
took them with the best results. They also
had beneficial effect upon my general
health | might add that my daughter-n-
law is taking this remedy for paralysis OF
the face and a finds that B the pills are helping
Rheumatism has been treated in widely
different ways even in quite recent times
and ignorant superstition has furnished
many so-called "charms' to ward off the
disease, Most people now know that to
cure rheumatism it must be treated through
the blood and to prevent the disease the
blood must be kept pure. External appli-
cations such as oils and liniments, while
they may relieve and sooth the pain, have
no more power to permanently cure rheu-
matism than horse-chestnut carried in the
pocket has to prevent it.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
have powerful effect in combating the
poisons in the blood which cause rheuma-
tism This principle of attacking disease at
the root is the cause of the miraculous sue

ing at the post hall, The colonel re- responded ed
at once, and when he arrived at the annex
comrade E. II. MarstOn told how much the
post members esteemed him and offered as
q testimonial a handsome easy chair. Col.
Walker was taken wholly by surprise, but
stammered his thanks. Refreshments were
served.
His service in the civil war was in the lst
division of the Sd corps, the famous old dl:
vision which wore the fred diamond and
was commanded by the gallant Phil Kearney
up to the time of his death in action, The
only battle that Col. Walker missed was
that Of Antietam. In the battle of the
Wilderness he was wounded five times and
had two horses shot under him:
After the war he returned to his home In
Maine, only to find that his lumber business
