Mr. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfield, Me., writes: "For six years I have been a tufferer from a scrofulous affection of the glands of my neck, and all efforts of physicians in Washington, D. C., Springfield, 111., and St. Louis failed to reduce the enlargement. After six months’ constant treatment here, my physician urged me to submit to a removal of the gland. At this critical moment a friend recommended S.S.S., •nd laying aside a deep-rooted prejudice against all patent medicines, 1 be(an its use. Before I had used one bottle the enlargement began to disappear, •nd now it is entirely gone, though I am not through with my second bottle yet. Had I only used your S.S.S. long ago, 1 would have escaped years of misery •nd saved over $150.” This experience is like that of all who tuffer with deep-seated blood troubles. The doctors can do no good, and even their resorts to the knife prove either fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only teal blood remedy; it gets at the root of the disease and forces it out permanently. S.S.S. {guaranteed purely vegetable) A.

is well known. Not only should the out side of the body be prfectly clean, hut the ’nterior ot the body as wall. Cleat teeth, clean mouth, chean throat, cleat nasal passages, are all requisites of per feet health.

A STRONG BLACKSMITH. How Mr. William Creed, of Shelbyville, has Obtained His Strength. Krom the Democrat, Shelbyville, Ind.

One of the prominent blacksmiths of Shelbyville, Indiana, is Mr. William Creed. He has been in the business for a number of years at his present stand, and is a first-class workman. Like the village blacksmith, from early morn tillmight the anvil rings from the strokes of his heavy hammer. But, unlike most of the blacksmiths we read about, Mr. Creed was not always so stout and healthy, although his brawny right arm always did it’s duty well when the body gave it power. Although Mr. Creed is in good health now, and can swing the hammer os hard as ever, for more than a year past he was in very poor health. Mr. Creed’s trouble was inflammatory rheumatism in its worst form. A reporter, while in Shelbyville a few days ago, chanced to meet Mr. Creed, and in the conversation an allusion was made to that gentleman's illness. “Yes, I was a victim of inflammatory rheumatism," said he, “and I had a bad case of it. But I managed to pull through in rather a marvelous manner." The reporter induced Mr. Creed to relate the whole circumstance regarding this experience. “It was about a year ago last February," said Mr. Creed, “that I began to notice I had the rheumatism. I was exposed to the severe cold and damp weather considerably, and this. I suppose started the disease. The first symptoms of it was noticed one night, when my limbs began to pain me and I was restless. Mv joints ached, and in a few days my feet and ankles had swollen. The swelling would go down, and then form again. This, of course, al ways gave me great pain, and I soon found that I had a genuine case of rheumatism. I had observed that cases of rheumatism are seldom cured, so I thought it was not worth while to doctor for it. But

in a short time my trouble bad*developed hK to inflammatory rheumatism, an ! I was confined to my bed. 1 had a very severe case. I doctored along, and was making no headway, getting worse, if anything, when I happened to see an article in a paper regarding a case almost like mine, in which the victim had been cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pilis for Pale People. I sent for some of the medicine and commenced taking it. In two or three days I began to notice improvement, and 1 became encouraged and kept up the treatment. Inn few weeks I felt almost well, and by the time I had taken three boxes I was entirely cured. This was in May, 1896. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills completely cured ine, and I have not been troubled any since. The medicine is certainly a wonder, and gave complete satisfaction in my case. It is very highly spoken of by many of my neighbors who have used it, and the druggist where I bought it says it lias the largest sale of any medicine in bin store. (Signed) “ William Creed."
