Show A SOLDIER'S ESCAPE. From the Democrat-Message, Aft. Sterling, 10. When Richmond had fallen and the great commanders had met beneath the historic apple tree at Appomattox, the S3d Pennsylvania Penn-sylvania Volunteers, prematurely aged, clad in tatters and rags, broken in body but of dauntless spirit, swung into line for the last "grand review" and then quietly marched march-ed away to begin life's fray anew amid the hills and valleys of the Keystone Key-stone State. Among the . number Asa Robinson came back to the old home in Mt. Sterling, HI., back to the fireside The Soldier's Return. at h,f thad le" at tbe call to arms four years previous. He went away a happy, healthy farmer boy in the first flush of vigorous vig-orous manhood; he came back a ghost of the self that answered to President Lincoln's Lin-coln's call for ''300,000 more." To-day he is an alert, active man and tells the story of his recovery as follows: "I was a great sufferer from sciatic rheumatism rheu-matism almost from the time of my discharge dis-charge from the army, most of the time I was unfitted for manual labor 01 any kind, and my sufferings were at all times intense. At times I was bent almost double, and got around only with the greatest difficulty. Nothing seemed to give me permanent relief re-lief until three years ago, when my attention atten-tion was called to Rome of the wonderful cures effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I had not taken more than half a box when T noticed an improvement in my condition, and I kept on improving steadily. I took three boxes of the pills, and at the end of that time was in better condition than at any time since the close of my army service. Since then I have never nev-er been bothered with rheumatism. r. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People is the only remedy that ever did me any good, and to them I owe my restoration to comparative com-parative health. They are a grand remedy." |
