nor even to lose the vigorous action of mind

' many years of hit buineai life, to perform

He had about despaired of arar aafenaf re

af terrible goffering that 1 had endured there
could not posgi'ily oe a...relief. IJiad no
faith in patent' medicines, and when I saw
in a paper the advertisement of Williams'
Pink Pills I was induced to try them only
jn sheer desperation. I did not feel any re
lief until i bearau taking the second box of
the pills, but then the pain began gradually
to leave me. my appetite became better, and
I could sleep soundly throughout the niffht
without experiencing any of the jerkutg
piint that had before kept me 'awake I
continued to take the pills and it was only a
sbort time until the rheumatism had entirely
let. niv hands, and 1 had so far recovered the
use of my legs as to be able to walk abosnV
the house without awirtaiiee. In about two
weeks more 1 was entirely free from the dis
ease, but I took two more boxes of the pills
as a precaution, against a return of the rheu
matism. From the time that the last trace
of the disease lei. me I lure not felt the least
sign of it return, and I can truthfully say
that f now enjoy as free use of my limbs as
ever A did before the rheumatism attacked
me.
"I .have, taken the pains to recommend
'Williams' Pink Pills to a number of my
friends wh are offering from rheumatism.
I think 1 know of no other remedy that will
afforavsach quick and permanent relief from
rheumatism as do Williams' Pink Pills, and
I only hope that many others may be brought
to see ana feel the high curative powers that
i the pills possess."

ftm jyoaeitee, (bU
Four yean ago, at the time of the trouble
between the United States and Chili, as a
result of the killing of the sailors of the II. -S.
S. Baltimore, in the streets of a Chilian
city, many Americans were obliged to leave
t country for safety. Among them was
M. Lugg, the private detective and col
lector, whose office is in the Crocker Build
ing, Situ Franoisco, Gal. .
When Mr. Lugg left Chili he went across
the mountains into Argentine, travelling on
mulebaok.
Mr.. Lugg says that the trip is a delightful
one in point of beautiful scenery and perfect
weather, but many people dislike to under
take it on account of the unhealthful stag
nant water which they are compelled tot
drink along the way. Many persons have ;
been stricken down with' disease from hav-.
ing drank of it, and in a number of cases '
the snacks have proven fatal. The native
Chilians drink the water without injury to
their systems, but it has a bad effect upon
those who are not used to it.
I fell a victim to the injurious qualities
" It snectea
if degree. V hen
I rot over into Argentine f thought the trou
ble would gradually leave me. but instead
of that it grew more aggravated and I suf
fered terribly from twins in the region of my
kidneys. ' I was en route to Chicago and I
determined to reach my destination before
the complaint should grow so serious as to
confine me to my bed. Upon reaching
Chicago I at once consulted a physician, who
told me my kidueys bad been affected by
drinking polluted water. He treated me for
some time for that complaint, but I grew
steadily worse and new ailments were added
to my already serious condition. I began to
have neuralgic pains in my head, my spine
was affected with shooting pains and I bad
no control over the urinary organs. It was
next to impossible for me to get any sleep.
I lay awake many a night sufteringtbe most
intense pains, s
relieve them.
the physician usable to
" But relief came at last. One day one of
my friends came to ray room and handed me
a box of Williams' Pink Pills. Of course I
laughed at bim for daring to think that any
patent medicine could aid me when my
physician had failed. I took the pills, how
ever, to oblige my friend more than for any
faith I had in them, and I was treated to the
most joyous surprise of my life when I real
ized that I was being relieved of my pains.
First the peculiar pains along my spine
ceased, ana tn
gan to grow let
then my neuralgic trouble be-
to grow less and finally left me entirely.
It took a good while to improve the con-
dition of my kidneys, but after I had taken
a number of boxec
of the pills I knew that
they had done their work successfully, for
then I had regained control of the urinary
organs and the action of my kidneys was
strong and steady.
" When I thought I was out of all danger
I quit taking the pills. Tbe relief they had
afforded was permanent, however, and I
have never since felt a recurrence of the
complaints. I hardly know how to praise
Williams' Pink Pilia as they should he
praised. They certainly are a wonderful
preparation. I have recommended them to
a number of my friends who were suffering
from kidney complaints, and they have au
been benefited by their use." t
