NO TRACE OF DISEASE LEFT
The Once Blind, Speeches., Helpless,
Paralytic at Work Years After
Marvellous Recovery.

In the fall of 1901 the San Francisco
Examiner published an interview be-
tween one of its representatives ana
John Hunter, of Chico, California, a
civil war veteran. whose reported re-
coYery from paralysis has created
such sensation as to lead that pap
er to investigate the facts. The re-
markable story told by Mr.. Hunter,
and confirmed by Mayor Clark, Rev,
w. G. White, Cashier Carew and POST
master Wilson, all of Chico was sub
6eauently reprinted in practically every
paper in the United States, in sub
stance, as follows:
about four years ago l was sud-
denly stricken with paralysis. 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 pima
and was so perfectly helpless that for
three years I was confined to my bed
Doctors diagnosed my case as loco
motor ataxia and my family physician
gave me every care and attention pos
sible, bat all his prescriptions DURING
two years We're powerless to alleNitte
my sufferings or in any way afford the
slightest relief.
After being virtually given up as a
dead man by friends and physicians
and resigmfng myself to my apparent
fate, l determined to try Dr. Wliliams

gave his consent to my trying Or

can now walk, do any odd jobs ABOUT
the place, go down town, and--most
wonderful of all--can see. And owe
1t all to DR.. Williams Pink Pills
The facts in the case admitted OF no
doubt end a singular triumph was add
ed to the victories already won by Or.
Williams Pink Pills. They had cured
disease which had never before
yielded to medical skill. Their use IN
nervous disorders was greatly increased
in consequence. Relief soon began TO
be experienced by scores of extreme
sufferers, and as the months went by
new names of paralytics cured by TINS
remedy, were added to the list which
began with the name of John Hunter.
The question that remained unset
tied. because only time could settle
1t, was simply: will these cures that
are So astonishing, prove to be per-
manent?' Time sufficient to make an
answer to that question possible has
now gone by, and every sufferer from
partial paralysis or locomotor ataNla
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 could
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 had made pro-
gress. Il now feel we'll in every way"
he said. II have built seven large
houses since last May and | 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
Hunter again wrote: My general
health is very good at present, better
even than during the summer. | am
able 10 work now every now, thanks to
your medicine. To you l owe all my
health"
In a letter receive from Mr. Hun
ter OH the very day on which this goes
to press is the following statement of
his present condition:
-Four and half years have elaps-
ed since my health was restored by
DR.. williams Pink Pills, and there
never las been any sign of return
of the dread disease from which l
suffered. l am now siNty-seven years
old, and am able to do good days
work at my carpenters trade without
feeling much fatigue at night. l can
walk two miles with perfect ease, and
can read the newspapers without
glasses My confidence in the medi-
cine 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 ataxia should be-
gin the use of these pills at once in
a spirit of hopefulness. Sufferers from
any form of nervous trouble, neuralgia,
sciatica prostration or partial party
sis, will find DR.. Williams Pink Pills
wonderful remedy. They are sold
by all druggists.
