It was vcrydisairrrcable medicine and I don't blame the boy I'm not wishing to lake it. "Our physician went to New ork city on business ami while lie was away the nudleiiii became exhausted and we could get no more. Stanley was still very bail. About that time I read about u little girl who had been cured of St. Vitus' duiicu In taking Dr. Williams' link Pills. 1 thought 1 would try them and procured a box. 1 followed the directions that came with p, and gave onlv hull' a pill at a dose. I did not see much improve ment and increased the dose toil whole pill. The effect wuj noticed in a day. Stanley Im mediately commenced to get better ami did not object to taking the pills as he had the other medicine, lie took seven boxes of the pills mid to-day appears to be perfectly well. He discontinued taking them some time injo He weighs nearly fifteen pounds more than he did anil is strong and hearty. A year ago we took lilm out of sehuol but lie is s(, much better now that lie is going to bei'iii ueain this fall."
