PEOPLE PaSSIHO V/ffINDEREB Cries of Agony Heard in the Street Terrible Suffering of a Victorian Woman Rheumatism, Kidney Disease, and Paralysis Cured by Dr Williams' Pink Pills, "Hour after hour I screamed aloud .with torture, ailu jwople passing in the street wondered what was tho mattor," said Mrs Uiarlcs Broadbcnt, describing tho awful agony she suffered with Khoumatic Fever, Kidney 1 rouble, and finally Paralysis. "For eight, long years I suffered the j- Vtcst pain a woman could bear," continued Mre Broadbent. 'For two years I never left my bod I lay on inv back suffering untold torture in the Ballarat Hospital for ten nonths, but tho cloverost doctors in tho eity cxjuld do me no good. I was a crippled "reck till Dr Williams' Pink Pills sot 3110 on my feet, strong and well again. "I had just, finished washing," explained Mrs Broadbcnt, "when a helpless feeling eamo over me. Next minute I was stretched en tho floor like dead. For two hours I lay ln ( ;' trance- Everyone thought I was dead. 'Often I shrieked with agony. I was wrapped m flannels and blankets—and even the .touch of those almost sent mo mad. At night tie sweat rolled off mo until I thought I would dio with sheer weakness. Finally, I was practically paralysed and couldn t turn in bed, Every half hour I would call my son to move inc. I was the most miserable woman on God's earth. " The pain I suffered was enough to kill twenty people. Tho least,. noise irritated me. Even tho shutting of tho bedroom door jarred inc. Every day I wished myself dead. I was a burden to myself, and a- terrible) expense to my husband. The best treatment did me no good. "At last tho doctors told Mr Broadbcnt, they could do 110 moro for me., .'ITor only hopo is the Ballarat Hospital.' they said. So they carried mo on a stretcher to tho buggy. There, propped up with pillows, I was driven six miles to the station. Every timo tho trap jolted I felt as if all my hones were broken, and my flesh battered and bruised. At tlio train my friends crowded round to have a last look at me. 'We'll l.over soo the poor thing back [.live,' ono of them said. "So it's no wonder my case is tho talk of Beaufort and Ballarat. At tho Ballarat. Hospital thoy put me under chloroform to straighten my leg—but they only mado it worse, and as stiff as a poker. For ten long niont-hs I lay in ceaseless agony, day and night. My case baffled all the doctors in Ballarat. After nearly a year I wa.s carried helpless from the Hospital as crippled and as pain-racked as when I went in. "Fresh torturo beset me. My back was ono dull, dragging, gnawing ache the livelong day. " I had given' up all hooe. when a girl wliom I had mot in the Ballarat Hosnital wrote to me saying that Dr Williams' PinkPills had cured her of hip disease. She begged 1110 to try them. When they cured ono cripple, I thought they might at least ease my pain. I tried them—and thoy certaiidy saved my life. "Soon after starting Dr Williams' Pink Pills," conoludod Mrs Broadbcnt, "I got a wonderful appetite. Then the paip began to ease up', so that- I could get a little sound sleep. Soon I lost that old downhearted feeling. I picked up hope, and kept right on with Dr Williams' Pink Pills. After three boxes, i mother slid to ine, ' There's a brightness ill your face that I haven't seen for years. Ynu look five years younger.' From that time on I gained every day. Before long I was able to get about again on crutches. Tho neighbours cotild scarcely believe their eyes.
