She is Fearfully Burned—ln.’ialas the Flames t and is Seriously Injured, but Proper Medical Treatment Saved Her Lila. !' Perhaps in no case as yet recorded has the efficiency of a popular remedy been found eo clearly as in that of Mrs. Nora E. Hill. While her condition, caused by a frightful and distressing accident, places her beyond the pale of perfect recovery, she has received ■uch marked relief that the storytif the ac cident and the sufferings resulting from it, will be of more than ordinary interest to thousands of invalids. Mrs. Nora E. Hill, before September t c 93, was a hale, hearty and strong woman, past the middle age of lite. She tells the following story : “Septemlier 7 1. is:'.;, while attending to my duties about the house, a gasoline stove which I had used for some time, suddenly exploded, throwing the burning fluid over me. Before my clothes which were on fire :ould be torn off, my right arm and hand were fearfully burned. This however, was not my most serious injury, as I had inhaled some of the flames, and I found the inside of my mouth blistered. My hand and arm to the elbow were burned to the bone, and my physician beli< veil amputation necessary, nut after weeks of great suffering, I was spared the operation, and I have fairly good jise of my ha’lid and lirhi now. ‘'Shortly after the process of healing of arm Add hand, my stomach eoptmenced to give me trouble. I.did not then realize what it meant. After each meal I was seized with a cramping sensation, and then in a few days there were frightful pains, which threw me into clammy perspiration. For eight months I was under the care of my physician, battling ha*l with death. I had lost 93 pounds, was becoming a mere skele ton, my appetite was gone, and my nervous system completely shattered. “ I lost confidence in everything, was totally discouraged, and determined to go to my .former home, Grand Rapids, Michigan, and have my physician make an exami nation of my condition. He did so and . found that gastric ulcers of the stomach had formed, which he said were incurable, and were liable to produce cancer at any time. While in Grand Rapids the ulcers which had formed in the stomach broke, which produced vomiting of large quantities of blood and pus. This confined me to a sick bed for several weeks. When I became .sufficiently strong to get up I came back here to die, as the doctor told me 1 might wfi-* one week, possibly one month. But I determined to make as strong a fight as I could, and g-t all ’he medical aid there was in Chicago. ® “I was taken b-fore a class of one. of the most noted and celebrated medical colleges here for examination. This examination proved w*< it my physician in Grand Rapids told me viz. that there were gastric ulcers of the stomach. The opinion of the college physicians was that my chances of a cure were not one in one thousand. This was in May 1894: in .Line I was taken down with gastric fever, caused by fresh ulcers forming, and I lay iu bed nine weeks. From Juneto September in that year I also suffered ad ditionaljy from thirty abscesses forming on my arms an I shoulders, produced by tlm* con dition of the stomach and blood circulation. After this I got a I’ttle better, and this im provement Inst” 1 during the fall n-<1 winter fill January 189.5, when 1 had another siege of gastric fever.

Fro tn the Chronicle, Chireno, 111, ■ during all this time, which had the effect of [ , comp.etely upsetting my stomaelf and nerv ous system. ■ “From January to July 1895, I suffered frightful agonies, resulting from the trouble I in my stomach, and was agit.n thrown into . i gastric 'fever, which kept me in bed three i weeks. j “A year ago last October I commenced to , take Dr. Williams’ Fink Pills for Bale , ! People. After I had taken two boxes iliey broke the gastric fever and enabkd me to get up. 1 found also that they gave me , strength, and my appetite came back. I [ found that I could digest the food I ate, pnd the pains disappeared. 1 also noticed that I became less nervous; in fitet my genera] condition improved very much. > “The f01i0.,n,. March (iu io9t>) IWM again troubled with the abscesses, but to a much less degree than formerly. This was due to the efficiency of the pills, which un doubtedly had brought my blood to a much . better condition. 1 want to explain here that the doctors said that the cause of the appear ance of abscesses was due to the ulcerated 1 condition of the stomach, which vitiated the blood through my entire system. “The pills have allayed my nervousness, they are putting my blood into better condi tion, they have cleared my brain, and have given me an appetite which 1 can gratify by eating light food without causing the terrible pain whit h formerly almost drove me insane. The pills are doing for me more than any medical aid I have ever received, and they have stopped my suffering to n very great extent. 1 do nOT think nor do I expect that they w ill cure me. because all physicians areagreed who have examined me that it is impossible. Past experience however has shewn me that they will to a great extent make my life bearable. This I believe is doing wonders, and I feel that jf they have done this much fjor me, there must be Uiyjy people who are suffering whom they can surfly cure. “I was born and raised in Michigan, and came to Chicago some ten years ago. I know quite, a number of people on the west side, and have told them of the marvelous relief I have gamed by taking Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People ; and if any one should like to hear more of the details of my suffering and more of the details of the relief gained by the Pink Fills, I shall be glad to have them call at my home, 4G Wal nut Street, Chicago.
