Lest 50 Pounds at 61 Years of Age.

The Canse—Malarial Fever— Pattent a Prominent Man—How He Becalmed Mia Weight. From the New Fra, Graenatmrf, Ind. There is probably uo man better known in Dearborn and Ohio counties than Mr. O. H. Miller, of Aurora, Ind., bookkeeper for Chambers, Stevens & Co., the large dry goods house. Mr. Miller was born and reared in Ohio County, where he spent twenty years in sneeession in public office. Three times he was the people's choice for Auditor of the county, and twice their choice for Clerk. According to the law at that time the Clerk or Auditor could not be elected two terms in succession, four years being a term. He was first elected Auditor, then Clerk, Auditor again, and Cleric again, until he had been elected five times. Becoming aged the is G 3) aud broken down in health, Mr. Miller deemed it advisable to retire from public service. His health became very poor, ami he went to Aurora to lire with his daughter. About two years ago Mr. Miller was taken sick with malarial fever, and was confined to his bed five months; it was more thau a year before he was able to get out. The sickness left him with rheumatism and catarrh of the stomach, which brought he said they had cured a bad ease of rheuon palpitation of the heart. He was overcome with general debility, was ail run down, his blood being poor and in it wntery condition. Speaking of his case Mr. Miller said: “The longer my troubles ran on the worse they grew. Nothing seemed to benefit me. My suffering was unbearable, and being quite old, I probably succumbed more quickly to the effects. I suffered almost continual pain, being unable to ent a full meal or enjoy an entire night's sleep. "1 had fallen off fifty pounds in weight. 1 looked like a mere skeleton. During thia time six physicinns had attended me at different times, but none of them did me the least good, although two were specialists on such cases, from the city. They all said that 1 would never lie benefited at all by anything, and it was useless for me to expect it. 1 felt that my time had come, and my daughter, Mrs. I*. I*. Stultz, of Jeffersonville, came to spend my last days with me. My daughter's husband, Mr. Stultz, has been superiutendent of the Jeffersonville city schools for eight years. Their daughter, who had been quite low, had recently recovered by the use of Dr. Williams' rink Tills, so she urged me as a last resort to try this medicine. 1 finally consented to do so. This was in August, 1895. I be?an taking the medicine at once, taking ourteen boxes, using the last about six months ago. After the first half dozen boxes 1 noticed a decided change, and when I had finished I could sleep well, and my appetite was good. There was a general improvement. My blood became new and nourishing, and now is in a good, healthy condition. 1 feel as well ns ever, and I am sure I owe it nil to Dr. Williams’ Pink I’ills for I’ale People.” Dr. Williams’ Fink I’ills for I’ule People are not a patent medicine i.u the sense that name implies. They were first compounded as a prescription and used as such in general practice by an eminent physician. So great was their efficacy was deemed wise to place them witlmi the reach of all. They are now manufactured by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Scbiieetudy. N. Y., and are sold in boxes (never in loose form by the dozen or hundred, and the public are cautioned against numerous imitations sold in this shape), at 50 cents a box. or six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all druggists or direct by mail from Dr. Williams’ Med.
