Time went on an. the attacks grew worse, and in then alt of 1908 my, little daughter wrote Pte that he was getting so ba thy?'they wanted to send him back tote hospital. I asked her to send hi me. for a time, and as one of his eyes had become crooked 1 took him to an occulist, who said this trouble could be cured, but it had noth- ing to do with bringing on his other trouble. As I knew that Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills were a splendid medicine I decided to give them to him, in the hope that they might bene- fit him. We are very careful as to diet. and as to keeping the child from excitement. In about a month we noticed that the trouble was lessen- ing, and at this time the little fellow returned home and his mother kept up the treatment. In a few months he seemed fully cured, but during the holi- days the trouble came back in a milder form and the Pink Pills were again re- sorted to, and again the trouble disap- peared, and although more than a year has passed there has not since been any sign of it. We feel so deeply indebted for what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done for him that we hope this plain statement of our experience will benefit some other sufferer." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills from any dealer in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.. Brockville, Ont. Wm.
