Confined To His Room For More Than a Year. An Intciuc Suffer-er Through rains in the Muscles of "In Legs and Armsâ€"Rb dlfl‘Nl Almost (0 a Living Skeleton. From the \Volfville. N.S.. Acadian. Mr. T. Vi. Beckwiih is the proprietor of the Royal Hotel, \Volfville, the most important hostelry in the town. He has a bright handsome looking son. 13 years of age, named Freddie, who is a lad of more than average intelli- gence. It is pretty well known in \Volf- villa that Freddie underwent a very severe illness, though perhaps the means to which he owes his recovery is not so generally known and a. stateâ€" ment of the case may be the means of hel )in some other sufferer. On the 26L 0 December, 1893,}:‘reddie was tak- en ill and was confined to his room and his bed until March, 1894. Two .(lifferâ€" out physicians were called in during his long" illness. One said he had in. grippe and the other that his trouble was rheu- matic fever. He was troubled with sev- ere pains through the muscles of his legs and arms, after three or four days was obliged to take to bed, where. he lay nearly all winter, suffering terribly from the pains. He became reduced al- most to a skeleton and was unable to , relish food of any kind. During his ill- - mess he suffered relapse owing to try- ing; to get: up sooner than he should. ‘Boylike he was anxious he get out i and anoy the beautiful spring sunshine and for several days was carried out and taken for a drive. This brought on the relapse. The doctor was again called in and as he continued to grow worse he was ordered once more to bed. Things then looked very dark as despite the medical care he did not get any better. At last his father de- cided to try Dr. \Villiams' Pink Pills. Soon after beginning their use Freddie began to feel better. His appetite be- gun to return and the pains were less severe. As he continued the use of the Pink Pills ho regained health and strength rapidly, and in about a. month was apparently as well as over, the only remaining symptom of his trying ill- which did not disappear for several months. It is OVG'I‘ one and a. half years a 0 since Freddie took his last pill, an in that time he has not had a recurrence of the attack. There is no doubt that Dr. \Villiams' Pink Pills cured him, and bdtlh the boy and his parents speak high}; in their praise. Dr. \Villiams' ink Pills are the medical marvel of the age. In hun- dreds of cases they have cured after all other medicines had failed. They are a. positive cure for all troubles arisin from n. vitiated condition of the bloo or a shattered nervous system.

The face is a. good index to the state of one’s physical being, and from it symptoms of disease can be detected alâ€" most before the patient is aware that anything serious is the matter with him. For instance, incomplete closure of the eyelids, rendering the whites of the eyes visible durin sleep, is asymp. ' ohronic disease-8i of a. severe type; it is also to be ob-l ptom in all nouns an served when rest. is unsound from pain, wherever seated. Twitching of the eyelids. associated with the mediation of the eyeballs, or squinting heralds the visit of convulsions. \Videning of ih: orifices of the nose. with movement: of the, nostrils to and fro, point to em- barrassed breathing from disease of the lungs or their pleural investment. .Con- traction of the brows indicates pain in the head; sharpness of the nostrilspain in the chest, and a. drawn upper lip, pain in the abdomen. To make a gen- oral rule, it may be stated that the upâ€" per third of the face is altered in 09 pression in nffectionspf the brain. the middle third. in the diseases of the org- ans contained in the abdominal cavity.
