She was Afflicted with Rheumatism and Indigestion — Now She Gladly Tells Omcrs How She Was Cured. Frnm The IHonar I'rent, St, Puat, Minn. Anyone who has suffered from ei- ther rheumatism or indigestion can appreciate the condition of a frail woman whose body was racked by the agonies caused by a complication of the diseases. Such was the experience of Mrs. J. T. Sloggy. of 107 East Jas- saminc- street, St. Paul, Minn. Hap- pily she found relief by taking the ac'vice of a friend and now, moved by gratitude for her delivery, she tells others how she was cured. To a re- porter she said: "During the winter season of 1898 I suffered very much with rheumatism, leing confined to my bed some of the time under a physician's care and un- able to do any work. I was also troubled with indigestion. When spring came I was thin and nervous, had a poor appetite and was broken down In health generally. That summer I made a visit to Wisconsin and while there met an old friend, Mrs. Ira Wilbur, of Big Springs. She said she had been a great sufferer from iadlgestion and had been completely cured by Dr. William's Pink Pills for Pale People. I knew her word could be relied on so I got a box of the pills and com- menced taking them. I felt benefttted in a few days but continued to take them for about five months. "That winter I had no return of the rheumatism, my appetite Improved and I gained in ilesh and strength. My cure was permanent and I have not taken any of the pills since. "I have told many how the pills helped me and I sincerely hope that others suffering In the same way may b*> induced to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People." This statement was sworn to by Mrs. Sloggy before 0. K. Sampson, a no- tary public, at St. Paul. Dr. Williams' Fink IMIla for Fnle People will not only cure rheumatism and indigestion but are also an unfailing specific for Biich diseases as locomotor atuxia, partial paralysis, St. Vltus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous headache, the after-effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complex- ions, and all forms of weakness. At all dealers or direct from Dr. Williams Medlclpe Co.. Schcnectady, N. V.. fifty cents per box; six boxes, two dollars and fifty cents. 5
