'lhese are the words . which. Kdward Lavoie, of St. Jerome, Que, lately addressed to the editor of L'Avenir du Kord, when relating the story of his cure, Mr. Lavoie is well known in St. Jerome, end what he says carries weight among those who know him. For a considerable time he was a great sufierer from dyspepsia, which caused severe headaches, pains in the stom- ach and sometimes nausca. Somotimes he felt as though he would suffocate, he would become dizzy, and expetionc. ed ringing noises in the cars. His ap- petite became poor, and his general health so bad that he found it almost impossible to work, and when the headaches attacked him he had to quit work. For six months, he says, he suffered both physically and mentally more than ean be imagined. During this time he took medicine from sev- eral doctors, but' formd no help. Then one day he read of the cure of a sim- ilar case through' the use of Dr. Will- inms' Pins Pills)! 'and decided to try them. He used the pills for a couple of months, and they have made him feel like a new persom, He is no long- er troubled with any of the old symp- toms, and says Be can how' go about his work as though he never had dys- pepsia.
