HEART DISEASE FROM CHILDHOOD.

!'From the Journal, Quincy, HI. ■ •'* Taul. Groks, 624 South Third street, Quincy, 111., is well-known, to many of the Journal readers. He is twenty-nine years old, was born and almost raised in Quincy. At present be is watchman on the “People’s” ferryboat. Many who have known Paul since infancy know that he has been near death’s door several times. Seeing him strong and vigorous, the writer asked him the other evening what physician had 'cured him. His reply astonished us. This is what he said: “Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are my doctor. They beat all the physicians in the country.” When asked if he would object to the Journal publishing an account of his case. Mr„Gross replied: “Not a bit. I Would be glad if you would tell what Pipk Pills did for me—it might be the means of relieving others who suffer as l suffered. . •“I had heart disease; of course, you know that. When a child I had palpitation of the heart, and in after years all the complications that heart disease produces. At first the palpitations were not serious, for they would last only a few seconds, but as I grew older the palpitations gradually grew worse until they would completely prostrate me. These palpitations would sometimes last thirty minutes, the blood would rush to my head and I would become so dizzy and my sight become so dimmed that I could not define any object before me. ’ I could hardly get my breath, and it seemed to the that my heart would burst. At times I thought that I was dying. When my heart failed to do its work properly my blood became impure and that caused other trouble®. “I doctored with first one physician and then another, but the doctors only aggrayated"the disease. One day, two years ago, I saw an article concerning Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills in a newspaper, and I .made up my mind to try them —I thank the Lord that I did. I took three boxes of the Pink Pills. They not only relieved me, but completely stopped the palpitations aud restored me to a state of genera] health of which I was proud. “I believed that I was entirely cured, but after about eighteen months I noticed a slight fullness of the heart. lat once got a box of the Pink Pills which effectually, removed this trouble, and I firmly believe that had I taken six boxes of the pills instead of three in the first place, I would never have experienced this ‘fullness.’ Many times have I thanked God for having directed Dr. Williams' Pink P Us to me, for they restored me to health—and health has brought me happiness. “As a blood purifier and as a tonic, I know of nothing that can equal these pills. You can say in the Journal that Paul Gross desires all people to try Pjnk Pills, for I would be glad if others could be blessed as I have been blessed.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills contain, in a I condensed form, all the elements neces- | sary 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, neuralgia, rheuma- • tism, nervous headache, the after effect of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness either in male or female, and all diseases resulting from vitiated ~humors in the blood. Pink Pills are sold by hll dealers, or will be sent post paid mr'Teceipt of price, 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, by addressing Dr. Wili iatns’ Med. Co., Schenectady, N. Y.
