HAD HEART PAINS
A Critical Case OF rheumatism Cured
BY Dr.WllIiams' Pink Pills.

While Mr.. w. s. Geisel, of No. 1876
East Coates street, Moberly, Mo-, was
steadily working at his trade in foun-
dry at that place, he became the victim
of an attack of rheumatism, and his ex-
perience is that of thousands who are
compelled to work in similar surround
ings. He describes his situation as fol-
lows:
81 had been at work for long time
in foundry where / was exposed to
dampness. First my feet began to hurt
and to swell, then my knees and my
shoulder joints began to be affected in
the same way. Finally could not walk
without great difficulty aud suffering
and had to stop work altogether. My
appetite was feeble and grew very pale
and weak. began to have pains about
my heart and it futtered q great deal.
l became greatly alarmed about my con,
dition. My mother knew about the vir-
tues of DIR. Williams Pink Pills, as they
had given her back her health when she
was nearly wasting to death, and when
she found that they were good for rheu.
matism too, she began to give them ia
me about month after | was attacked.
That was in the early part of March.
1908. and by June they had driven away
the pains and swelling and had restored
my appetite and color. Then I fell
strong enough to take up a line of out.
door work and now, in October, I re.
gard myself rs entirely we'll and am
about to go into foundry again at st.

DIR. Williams Pink Pills also cure
other diseases springing from i'm.

as sciatica, locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis and all forms of weakness in
male or female. They may be had al

Very Old English Used In Parts OF

Last summer some persons from the
North were spending a month in the
mountains of West Virginia in a log
cabin on the mountainside. One morn
ing, as they sat on the porch admiring
the views, a little mountain girl in
short blue calico dress and bright pink
sunbonnet bounced round the side of
the cabin.
"Howdy!" she said. Nanny wants
to know If you-all don't want poke
of snapples this mohning."
"A what?" the Northerners asked, in
amazement.
"a poke of snapples," sissy repeat
ed. Then. evidently overcome with
shyness, she darted through the un.
derbrush before the newcomers could
decide whether or not they wanted a
poke Of snapples."
The expression got into the sys.
tens of the visitors, until curiosity

the mountain woman would laugh in
her face or think her an escaped luna

But very gravely the woman disap-
peared, and soon returned, handing
the caller bag of string beans. The
beans, which snap in the fingers are
called "snapples" by the mountain
