AN OVERWORKED BRAIN.

From the Record, Pierceton, Ind. Determined to rise as an educator, Ernest Kemper, of Pierceton, Ind., overtaxed himself mentally and physically. He was ambitious; his mind was always on his work. From early morn until late at night he continually pored over his books. Few persons, even with the strongest constitutions, can keep up under sudi a strain. In addition to his studies, Mr. Kemper was teaching a school some three miles from his home. Finally, his excessive study and the exposure of going to and from school in all kinds of weather undermined his health. ' He was taken to his bed with pneumonia and his overworked brain almost collapsed. For several weeks he was seriously ill. Catarrh had taken root in his system and his mind was in a delicate condition.

He was sent to Colorado, where he spent three months without

i r e c e iving any benefit. 1 Then a note d speciali s t from C 1 e veland treated him without avail, and then a hospit a 1 in C h i c a go was tried, but all abs o 1 u t ely

without benefit. Finally his physician recommended Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and from the first box he began to improve. When he hud taken nine boxes he was completely cured. This famous blood and nerve medicine accomplished what former expensive treament failed to do. Mr. Kemper says his catarrh has entirely left him; he is strong again and weighs nine pounds more than he ever did. He gives the pills the entire credit. He is starting teaching again and feels abundantly able to continue the work. To prove that the above is true*Mr. Kemper’s affidavit follows: Subscribed and sworn to before me thie the 10th day of September, 1897. It. P. WATT. Notary Public. We doubt if these pills have an equal in all the range of medicine, for building up a run down and debilitated system.

Overstudy.
