Experience of a Bed Willow County Pchool
Teacher One of the Veterans Who
"Marched With Bherman to
, to the Sea," Tells How
' He Was Benefited.
From the Courier, Indianola, Neb,
A few days ago a request came from
parties interested that a representative
of the Courier visit S. B. Pickering, in
(ierver precinct, and investigate the case
of his daughter, Miss Laura v . 1 icner
inir. a well-known school teacher of In-
dianola, Neb. Accordingly the editor
himself, determining to investigate, and
securing a team, took a drive into Ger-
ver nrecmct. We arrived at tne nome
nf Mr. Pickering about 1 o'clock, and
and when we introduced ourselves and
made known our business we received a
cordial welcome. The family having
dined, a warm dinner was prepared for
our special benefit, although we protest
ed and suggested a luncn. 1 ne laniuy,
however, said that after riding twenty
two miles on a day like this that we were
entitled to a good, warm dinner.
After dinner we informed Miss Picker
ing that we came all the way from In
dianola to find out how she happened to
need Pink Pills for Pale People, and etc.,
etc.. also suggesting that she certainly
had no use for them now, or her appear
ance was deceptive, as she looked the
picture of health, hhe laughed and said
that she was feeling quite well at present,
and that we should have been there at
dinner time in order to have made a note
of her appetite.
"From childhood," said Miss Picker-
inir. 'I had been a great sufferer from
rheumatism and could get nothing that
would effect a permanent cure, lwo
vears ago. while visiting in Johnson
county, I was taken with a severe attack
of this disease. A neighbor lady who
had been cured of paralysis by the
use of Pink Pills, persuaded me, much
against my will, to give tbem a trial. I
had never taken any patent medicine,
and was opposed to anything of the
kind. However, I consented, and com
meiiced improving at onec. After tak
ing them four months I was fully re
stored to neaitn ana quit laning uiein
only one occasionally when I felt the
lenst indisDosed. I have never been
troubled with rheumatism since. When
I arrived home I persuaded father to try
the Pink Pills for his trouble." "les.

the pills that she thought they would.

would not be without them in the hoime,
and after eating when I feel bad I take
one and am benefitted at once. I know
a number of old soldiers who are afflict
ed like myself, and they say that noth
ing helps them so much as the Pink Pills,
but," said Mr. Pickering, "one should be
sure to get the genuine article. Not long
ago I was in Indianola and went into a
drug store there and inquired for Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. The druggist in
formed me that he did not have them,
but had a much better pill for less mon
ey. He persuaded me to try a box. I
did so and have that box yet with all its
pills except the first dose. I will not
take a substitute another time. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills is the only patent
medicine that we have ever had in the
house. We are not the only people in
this neighborhood who use these pills."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain in a
condensed form all the elements necessary
to give new life and richness to the
blood and restore shattered nerves.
They are an unfailing specific for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neu
ralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache,
the after effects of la grippe, palpitation
of the heart, pale and sallow complex
ions, all forms of weakness either in male
or female, and all diseases resulting from
vitiated humors in the blood. Pink Pills
are sold by all dealers, or will be sent
postpaid on receipt of prise, 50 cents a

A REMARKABLE CURE.
0A8E OF PILES OF EIGHTEEN
YEAB8 STANDING-
Cured by the Pyramid Pile Oure.
There are plenty of pile cures which
give relief and sometimes cure a mild
case of piles, but there is only one which
can be depended upon with ' certainty to
cure obstinate, long-standing cases, and
that is the Pyramid Pile Cure.
Endorsements and testimonials are re
ceived daily from men and women whose
integrity and reliability are above ques
tion, and iu this connection a letter re
ceived from the Rev. Jas. H. Weabrook
of Bowne, Mich., may be of interest to
the sufferers who have sought in vain
for a cure. He Buys:
I hare used the Pyramid Pile Cure and
I know that it is ail that is claimed for
it. I had been troubled with piles more
or less for about eighteen years, and I
had tried other remedies, and the piles
grew worse until about ten months ago
I used the Pyramid Pile Cure. It gave
almost instant relief, and I have been
free from Piles ever since. Rev. Jas. II.
Wesbrook.
The remedy seems to act equally well
in every form of piles, blind, bleeding,
protruding or itching. It stops all pain
almost immediately, allays irritation
and removes constipation, and anyone
who has suffered the annoyance and pain
of a rectal trouble will appreciate the
excellent results which invariably follow
the first application of the Pyramid.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
the Pyramid Drug Co. of Albion, Mich.,
and for sale by druggists everywhere at
50 cents per package.
