desire to assure my friends and the

much of the time and so badly nflHuted
with a form of stomach trouble that
lifo was a veritablo nightmare.
"I tried various lemedies, bnt dur

tained no relief. I had always beon a
robust, healthy man and sickness bore
heavily upon me.
"About two years ago I was advised
to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Palo People. I purchased ono box and
received bo much benefit that I used
five more and was entirely cured. I
gained twenty-two pounds in five
weeks. Sinoo I stopped taking the
pills 1 have scarcely had an ache or
pain.
