Mr.. HAYDEN'S VIEWS
GIVES HIS OPINION OF THE BEST
TREATMENT FOR PARAL YSIS.
Declares That DIR. Williams Pink
Pills Restored the Use of His
Limbs When All Other
Remedies Failed.

The pressure of modern life creates
so great a strain that few are free
from the dread of using up their sup.
ply OF nervous energy and thousands
are already crippled and utterly DIS
couraged.
All such will welcome the account
here given of an instance of complete
recovery from paralytic'g helpless
state by simple means within the
reach of every sufferer 1t is scarcely
necessary to say that remedy which
will cure an advanced and compiicat-
ed case may ba employed with still
greater confidence where the Fremont
tory symptoms are recognized and
treatment begun at once. These symp-
toms are briefly: Trembling Of the
hands; sudden loss of power in arms
or legs, frequently affecting one whole
side of the body; staggering; partial
or entire inability to use the fingers /;
distortion of the features, sometimes
an uncomfortable quivering of the
chin; severe pains; difficulty in
speech. Frequently the first warnings
a vague feeling of headache, vertigo
and muscular weakness.
In recent interview Mr.. W. j. l..
Hayden gave the following account of
his own sutferings and cure. II truly
think, said he, THAT DR.. Williams
Pink Pills are great medicine for
they cured me when physicians and
| other remedies failed to give me the
slightest relief. had been giving too
| close attention to business, and over
work brought on an attack of nervous
ness which finally developed into
| paralysis. There were times when il
was impossible for me to move my
hands or to get up from chair. At
other times / had partial control OF
my limbs, but | was afraid to go far
| from the house for fear l might sud.
denly become helpless and have to be
carried home.
'While | was in this miserable con.
dition, L was stricken with malarial
| fever and confined to the bed for four
months. l had the best physicians
bnt, while they relieved my fever,
their treatment did not entirely drive
the malaria from my system, and they
| did not help my paralysis in the least.
| . was well nigh despairing of ever
being cured when a friend persuaded
me to try DR.. williams Pink Pills.
When had finished one box | could
see results that encouraged me to buy
a second box. My condition kept
steadily improving, and when had
taken seven boxes was cured of psraly-
sis and the malaria was completely
driven out of my system. For two
years now have enjoyed the best OF
health and have attended to business
without any interruption.
Mr.. Hayden's home is at No %
West 39th street, New York city.
! DR.. Williams Pink Pills have cured
many similar cases of paralysis, also
locomotor ataXia. They are sold by
all druggists. Write the DR.. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.
Y, for details of other cases and fol
a valuable booklet on the treatment
of nervous disorders.

A Notable Family.

President Roosevelt needn't worry
himself about race suicide in this country
when such examples as that of the Coop
er family, of Charlestown, in this county
can be cited When VIM. Charles Coop
er, and his good wife Rachel a. Cooper,
sit down to the family board, with all
their children about them, they number
exactly thirteen. The superStitious
rors for them, for any married couple,
whom Heaven has blessed with seven
self-respecting, sober and Industrious
sons, and with them four devoted and
womanly daughters, may well be proud
of so rare IL family group. VIM. Chas.
Cooper is a brickhyer by occupation,
Charlie" Cooper, as he is Familiarity
known All seven of his SONS have work
ed more or less at bricklaying, two of
them taking time by the forelock and at
tending st. Johns College at Annapolis.
Mrs. Cooper who * Il daughter of the
late Capt. Bryson. of this county, while
81 years of age, is az active as a girl of
20, and with her husband. who is 20,
looks forward yet to many years of life
and usefulness. The progeny of this
happy couple is a. follows-Wm. II.
Seward Cooper, Charles Penrose. Cecil
Calvert, John, George f., BurtiS and
Herbert Gluson Cooper. The daughters
|are-Elinabeth. the wife of Il. X. Tay-
or of Blythedale; Ella ". wife of VIM.
Derr Baltimore; Rehccca J. and Edith

side with their parents. Who can fore
tell the size of this family group when

rem and their great grandchildren may
lovingly gather about the Cooper family
