Time Only Increases the Wonder of This

The Once Blind, Speeches.. Helpless Para.

In the fall of 1901 the San Francisco Elk.
anliner published an interview between one
of its representatives and John Hunter OF
Chico, California, a Civil war veteran,
whose reported recovery from paralysis
had created such a sensation as to lead that
paper to Investigate the facts The remark
ed by Mayor Clark, Rev. W. G. White,
Cashier Carew and Postmaster Wilson, ali
OF Chico, was subsequently reprinted in
practically every paper in the United States
in substance, as follows:
"AbOut four years ago l was suddenly
stricken with paralysis. l lost all sense of
feeling and all power of movement in my
right side, from head to foot. l also partly
lost the power of speech. l soon became
totally blind and was so perfectly helpless
that for three years l was confined to my
bed.
doctors diagnosed my case as lOcOmOtOr
ataxia and my family physician gave me
every care and attention possible, but all
his prescriptions during two years were
powerless to alleviate my sufferings or in
any way afford the slightest relief.
after being virtually given up as dead
man by friends and physicians, and resign
ing myself to my apparent fate, determin-
ed to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. l mentioned it to my doctor and he
not only gave his consent to my trying DR..
Williams Pink Pills but strongly advised
my doing so.
"From blind, helpless paralytic, unable
to move and so broken down and hopeless
that life was burden, can now walk, do
any odd jobs about the place, go down town,

The facts in the case admitted of no
doubt and singular triumph was added to
the victories already won by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. They had cured a disease which
had never before yielded to medical skill
Their use in nervous disorders was greatly
increased in consequence. Relief soon be-
gan to be experienced by scores of extreme
sufferers, and as the months went by new
names of paralytcs cured by this remedy,
were added to the list which began with the
name of John Hunter.
The question that remained unsettled,
because only time could settle it, was SIM
ply: "Will these cures that are so astonish-
ing, prove to be permanent" Time sutfi-
cient to make an answer to that question
possibly has now gone by and every suffer-
er from partial paralysis or locomotor
ataxa will be overjoyed to learn that Mr.
Hunters cure lasts and that he is even
more vigorous than when his recovery was
first reported.
In February, 1904, more than three years
after he had regained his sight and the use
of his legs, and "cDuld do any odd jobs
about the place" John Hunter wrote to the
DR.. Williams Medicine Co that he not only
retained the gain, but that he made prog

said, | have built seven large houses since
last May and l consider your pills the sole
cause of my good health, for had it not been
for them | would not have been on earth to-
day."
/ In November, 1904, the same John Hun
ter again wrote: "My general health is very
good at present, better even than during
the summer. l am able to work now every
day, thanks to your medicine To YOU [
owe all my health"
In letter received from Mr.. Hunter on
the very day on which this goes to press is
the following statement of his present con-
ditiOn:
"Four and a half years have elapsed since
my health was restored by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, and there never has been any
sign of return of the dread disease from
which l suffered | am now sixty-seven
years old, and am able to do good days
work at my carpenters trade without feel
miles with perfect ease, and can read the
newspapers without glasses. My confidence
in the medicine that has done so much for
me is unbounded.'
The claim of DR.. Williams Pink Pills to
be the greatest of all nerve remedies rests
on facts such as the above. The test of
time has proved the thoroughness of their
work. Every victim of locOmotor atax!a
should begin the use of these pills at once
| in spirit of hopefulness. Sufferers from
any form of nervous trouble, neuralgia, sci
atlca, prOStratiOn or partial paralysis, will
| find DR.. Williams Pink Pills a wonderful
remedy. They are sold by all druggists.
