"I had been at work for long time
in a foundry where l 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 and 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 f1uttered a great deal.

tues of DR.. Williams Pink Pills, as they
had given her back her health when she
was nearly wasting to death, and when
she found that they We're good for rheu-
matlsm too, she began to give them to
me about month after I was attacked.
That was i'll the early part of March.
1903, and by June they had driven away
the pains and swelling and had restored
my appetite and color. Then I felt
strong enough to take up a line of out
door work and now, in October, I re-
gard myself rs entirely we'll and I am
about TO go into foundry again at st.
