DYSPEPSIA AND LOSS OF FLESH FOLLOWTHE GR1PPE. ThisDiseaseAttacks theWeakest Parts of the Body. The Harmful Effects can be Prevented by Properly Strengthening Those Parts. A Further Case Cited by the Jackson Patriot, in which Rheumatism, Resulting from Same Cause, was Cured in the Same Way. From the Muskegon, Mich., News. Oceana County, Michigan, is widelyknown ] as one of the finest fruit-growing sections in ' the country, and especially for its fine and ; luscious peaches. But all the peaches grown on trees are not to be placed m , parison with the peach bloom which has ; again returned to the cheeks of one of the ' best known ladies in Hart, the county seat of Oeeana county. How this wonderful and j beautiful efFect was obtained, and the 1 tory of the illness preceding the cure, has been known long since to residents of Harj and others througbout the county, but to a News reporter of Muskegon, who was in Hart at the fair, the following interesting andjoyful tale was unfolded recently by Mrs. V. S. Eggleston; the person who once was a helpless in valid. To-day a more happy woman can nowhere be found. " In 1891," said Mrs. Eggleston, " I resided in Cass county, at which time I in common with nearly everybody in the county suft'ered a severe attack of the grippe, only it left me with a still more serious trouble. The greatest part of my trouble then was in my stomach. I had no appetite and wastedaway until I lost twenty-four pounds. Of course X was doctoring, but nothing reaehed my case. I moved up to Hart in June, 1892, and my ill health continued, although I tried two resident physieians. I grew disgusted finally and quit doctoring, as it seemed it would take our all, and yèt I grew no better and looked like a skeleton. My husband read in a paper of a medicine called Dr. Williams' Pink Pilis, and he immediately got Boine for me. I had no hope hardly and was not enthusiastic over the new pills, but I am now. " It is a solemn fact that I began to get better the very first day and keptonimproving. In a short time my stomach had a better feeling ; my appetite picked up and I could eat everything I wanted to. I had a second trouble, however, which I did not expect the pills would reaeh, but they did, and the result is that a swelling in my rightside, caused by some ovarían trouble, is almost entirely gone. I can lie on my right side now with comfort, and this is not all the relief I obtained. ' ' Formerly in wet weather my bones would che terribly. Now I do not notice any bad effects whatever. I am able to walk three miles at a stretch now, for I did that last week in going to visit a friend. I teil every one of my wonderful cure, and many of my amieted friends are using the Pink Pills now with good effect. I now weigh 132 pounds, a gain of twenty-one pounds." Mrs. Eggleston's husband was present during the narration of his wife's troubles and triumphs, and he willingly corroborated the statements made by her. A neighbor, Mrs. Brown, who happened to drop in, stated that Mrs. Eggleston did not look like the same woman who came to Hart a year ago. RHBUIIATISM'S VICTIM. How He Wat Attaclted- How He Wa Treated- Hotv He Was Cured. From the Jackson, Mich., Patriot. How often are seen people a little past the meridian of life who, but for the lingering effeets of some ailment of an unusually stubborn nature, might still be enjoying robust health, but who on account of the lack of a remedy to assist nature in throwing off the discnse are broken down and worn out long before the allotted time. Marcu S. Lyon, of 1071 Francis Street, íackson, Michigan, is one of the unfortumtes. A year and a half acó Mr. Lyon was . physical wreck, hardly able to leave his ifii, and hisfriends had no idea tlmt hecould urvive more íhan a few months longer at si. Heishoweverto-dayawellman. Durng the course of a recent con vcrsution with a eporter, he gave a history of bis case and the :ause of his recovery, as follows : "About two and a hall years ago I had a evere attack of influenza whien proyed -ery bad in its effects, an I would not yield o ordinary treatment. torne íbur months ater I had another attack which was íulJy is persistent as the íirst. After being treated y the family physician for some time I liought the disease had run into rheumaism, and I treated for the same several nonths, all the time getting worse. I kept jetting weaker in the muscles of my legs, eet and hands which veré quite sore and ender. My feet and the lower part of my egs, and niy hands were badly bloated and Iropsical and had a numb or paralyzed feelng, and I could stand on my feet but a few nmutes at a time. I became restless and íervous, and would awaken twelve or fifteen imes in the iright, and my legs would shaka "or a few secoixls. similar to shaking agüe - aut not cold. With all the rest, my limbs ■iail stiffened and I had not been able to iress myself for several months, and some jf my friends thought I would not live but ï few weeks. I was looking so bad and palé and still had taken what the doctor had Drdered all the time. I went to another Joctor for his opinión in my case. He, udging frorn the dropsical eondition of my limbs, said I had Bright's disease. I disputt'd this and another doctor said I had no ndiration of it whatever of which I was confident. l)r. N. H. illiams finally consluded my blood was out of order and I asked him for a remedy for my bad blood. This was in February, 1S93. He said about all that coiild be done was to exercise out of doors, get my strength when the weather got warm. At last he said he liad gone into my case as far as he eould and I dropped hira nnd his medicine and began to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pilis for Pale People about the 15th of Mareh, 1893, and in ten days after taking the pills the dropsical eondition and weakness began to leave my fi'et and legs. In a comparatively short time I was nearly cured, and I gained strength so that I could walk a mile and back. I then went to work at my trade as a joiner and stair builder, and have worked almost every day since. My reeovery has been a wonder to my friends. I am sixty-fi ve years old this month, and mygeneral health has never been better than it is at present. I can recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People as a great blood builder and for general debility. A dozen or more of my friends have been using Pink Pills on their merits in my case, with very beneficial results. I can say the Pink Pills have been a life-saving remedy for me, and have given me at least a fer more years of health and vigor." Marcus S. Lyon. Subscribed and sworn to before me this 21st day of March, 1894. A. A. Spaüldins, Notary Public.
