The busy little village of Branchvllle,

miracle. Chas. +. Struble, u well
known and prosperous farmer, living
on Homestead Farm, in Frankfort,
Township, few miles from Branch
Vile, is just now the chief subject of
discnssion throughout Sussex County,
1he Press is always up to date In its
news both political or medical, and has
procured the following from Mr..
Struble's own lips:
IL have been troubled with rheuma-
tism off and on for 20 years. | have
tiled all kinds of medicines and treat
ments. | have taken sulphur baths at
Hamburg, n. j., Newton, N. j and in
New York City with a doctor who
charged me 81 80 a bath each day. An
English doctor treated me with a
galvanic battery at Rockaway, Morris
| Co., n. Y. | have tried many doctors,
None of them did me any permanent
good, | used all kinds of liniments l
could hear of but without avail
About two years ago was taken
much worse aud my doctor said l had
locOmOtor ataxia of the spine, and that
the chances were against me. After
treating for time, he finally gave me
up and said he had done all he
could for me,
The cords of my limbs were drawn
tight as the cords on kettle drum, and
bad such cramps in my limbs that 1
suffered terrible pain. My feet were
cold all the time. | had to use hot
water bag and heated bricks to my feet,
but even then could moi get any relief.
FINALLY | heard Of DIR. Williams
| Pink Pills for Pale People, and COM
menced taking them on Feb 9th, 1898.
| | found In three days time that the
cords in my legs began TO let up my
| feet began TO get warm, began TO eat
and sleep well, aud in one month had
gained six pounds. The nunbness in
my limbs began to leave me too, and
today | feel like new man and cannot
say too much in praise OF DR.. Williams
| Pink Pills | am able 10 walk and do
soma work, and all tnis is after using

In order to emphasize bis story, Mr..

and good feeling By the following
certificate:

and correct.
IRA Coss Justice Of the Peace.
On the farm with Mr.. SIuble live
bis two adults sisters. Miss Annie NJ.
Strube made the following statement:
abr. Williams PINK Pills Tor Pale
People have done wonderful things Tor
my brother. lie was i'll helpless
condition when | left him on Jan. 18th
last, and when | returned on March
18th, found him cured. The most
remarkable thing about the case" she
continued, sis the curing of his lame
hess. OF course | wanted TO know all
about the uses of such wonderful
change, and | learned from him and
my sister and others, that during my
alb 'euce he lad been using the Pink
Pills, az d that his recovery was attrib-
ut6d solely to them"
Miss Mary L. StIuble said: ~ saw
my brother in all the stages OF the
disease. He began improving as soon
as he began taking the Pink Pills.
When my sister went away In January
he was apparently at deaths door and
nobody seemed to have any hope for
him. He certainly had little or none
for himself, and he was very despond-
ent in spite of all Efforts TO cheer him.
| L.. hot H.. 81 h..tf IN
as he began taking tue PHI k Pills, and
10 one who, Ike myself, Was attending
him day by day, tlere could be no
doubt that they and they alone were
the cause Of his improvement. Why
all other things he bad tried he had
abandoned, for they had failtd TO do
him the slightest good. What else
could have put him on his feet againY
We don't wonder at his enthusiasm for
the Pink Pills.
George j. Bowman, the proprietor OF
the American Hotel at Branchyille,
said IAN that Mr.. StIuble says in
reference to the Pink Pills | know to
be true. In fact he can't say too much
about them for they have undoubtedly
say' d his life
AT the Branchville drug store, chief
clerk Henry Beemer, remarked, II
have no doubt that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have cured Mr., Struble." Joseph
IL. Mcdonald, the proprietor OF the
&c neral store Of BTanchville and Post
master Knox, expressed themselves In
similar terms.
