AWFUL NEURALGIA
Mr.. Porter Thought He Should Go Mad
But Or. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Him.

at seems like a miracle that DR.,
Williams Pink Pills should have cured
my neuralgia, said Mr.. Porter. "They
are certainly a marvellous medicine and
l am always glad to recommend them.
Fort two years, he continued, 81 had
suffered almost uncomfortable painsi in my
head. They would start over my eyes
and shoot upward most frequently, but
they often spread over my face, and at
times every part of my head and face
would be full of agony. Sometimes the
pains were so intense that l actually
feared they would drive me mad.
"My eyes ached constantly and there
was alwaysa burning sensation owe my
forehead, but the other pains varied,
sometimes they were acute, and again
they were dull and lingering. I could
not sleep. My temper was irritable and
/ got no pleasure out Of life.
~ tried remedy after remedy, but
finding no help in any of them, l be.
came a despairing man. Even when I
began to take DR.. Williams Pink Pills l
had nc great hope Of cure.
"That was in December of 1908. To
my surprise, a change in my condition
took place right away. The pains grew
less intense and the acute attacks were
further apart, as kept on using DR.. Will.
liams' Pink Pills. The improvement be-
gan with the first box, and when I had
used six boxes I stopped. My cure was
complete and has lasted ever since"
Mr.. Charles H. Porter lives at Ray
mond, N. Fl. He is one of many grateful
people who have found that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills will cure diseases of the nerves
that have stubbornly resisted every other
remedy tried. Not only neuralgia, but
sciatica, partial paralysis and locomotor
ataxia yield to them. They are sold by
all druggists, OR may be obtained directly
