From my hips clown to my foot every joint and ovory muncle appoarod to bo affected, and tho pitfuH appoarod to ohaso one another until I was at timos nearly wild, and mind you thin was my condition for upwards of twonty-flvo yoars. During that poriod I triod many romodiou, and whilo I obtained temporary roliof from some, I could got nothing in tho way of permanent bonoflt. Rut last year tho pains did not come back, and they have not returned ainco, and thin is the way it came about. Ono day whilo tolling my neighbor, Mr. \V. O.

Well, I got tho pills and used thorn, and tho rlwuma- tism has been drivou out of my system, and last winter and spring, for tho first timo in more than twenty years, I waa entirely free from ray old onomy. But thoro is one thing moro Dr. Williams' Pink Pills did for mo, and which aa- tonisbos mo a littlo. Over forty yoars ago I bad a severe earncho, and used a liquid preparation in tho hopo of got- ting roliof. It nearly ruined my hear ing, and for all tbo years ninco I have boon partially deaf. .After I took Pink Pills my hearing camo back, and my oar is now all right. My wifo and sis ter have also found much benefit from Pink Pills whon run down by overwork, and it is safe to say that they will al ways bo found in our houso." Dr, Williams' Pink Pills strike at the root of disoaso, driving it from the sya- tom and rostoring the patient to health and strength. In cases of paralysis, spinal troubles, locomotor ataxia, sci atica, rheumatism, erysipolaa, scroful- .ous troubles, etc., these pills aro super ior to all other troatment. Thoy aro also a specific for the troubles which make tho lives of so many women a burden, and speedily restore tho rich glow of health to pale andsallow cheeks. Men broken down by overwork, worry or excoases, will iind in Pink Pills a certain cure.
