Various medicines were resorted to, but gave no relief. l.alr I was treated by two of the best physicians of tbe town. One said my blood was poor and watery. I followed hit advice for some time but did not Im- prove. Then th* second doctor wa* called and h* baid hu could help m*. but after ruiiKhly letting his medicine* without benefit. 1 teat* it up and despaired of ever getting well. My grandmother had been reading at that time n n. h about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and persuaded ma to try them. That waa about January, 1896. 1 nun th* first the results were really marvellous, being far b yond my friend*' expectations. After taking five boxes I ran stand mor* fatigue than I rould for two year*.
