(From Mt Sterling, Kentucky, Gazette)
In the mountains of Eastern Kentucky,
several miles from the line of the Chesa-
peake & Ohio railroad, lives Il retired
physician and farmer, surrounded by
happy and interesting family.
His name is DR.. q. H. Porter, and for Al
years he has ministered to the sick in
the counties of Rowan and Morgan, and
for years he suffered more than many of
the patients on whom he called. He was
at last cured, and his cure was SO start
ling and miraculous that it was soon the
talk of the mountains, and finally
reached the bluegrass. A reporter of
the Gazette hearing of the remarkable
case, concluded to investigate the mat
ter, in the interest of suffering human
ity:
The reporter reached the home of DR..
Porter, and after introducing himself
said: Z" DR.. Porter, learn that for years
you have been great sufferer, and that
you have at last been cured and by an
new discovery in medicine. Will you
oblige me by relating your experienced"
In reply DR.. Porter related the follow
ing: Twenty years ago, while living
in Morgan county and practlcing my
profession, | HAD a terrible nervous
shock that completely prostrated me,
and from that time until few months
l.
nevsr knew well day. | tried every
thing in the way OF medicine that |
could hear of and consulted physicians
for miles around, but / found no relief
and | resigned myself to the inevitable,
as I thought, and awaited the end A
few months ago my son saw an account
in your paper of a new medicine called
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and wanted me
to try it. / told him it was no use,
that they would do me no good: but
finally be persuaded me to get Mr.. B. l..
Tabor. our merchant, to order some for
me. After taking a few doses | felt
better, and again hope revived in my
breast. / continued taking the pills,
and continued to improve and now |
believe | have finally recovered. That
is about all of the story. believe Pink
Pills saved my life, and I never fail to
recommend them to anyone who is
suffering. In fact can tell you of man
that you will pass on your road home
who has been almost completely cured
of rheumatism after years of suffering,
Mr.. S. G. Bailey is his name and you can
stop and see him."
After thanking DIR. Porter, and bid
ding him farewell, the Gazette man start
found on his farm cutting some trees
Bailey said: aYes, DR.. Porter has tod
you the truth. / suffered for years with
rheumatism, and was only able to leave
my room in good weather, and then was
not able to do any work. l saw Pink
Pills advertised, and was urged by DR..
Porter and other friends to try them,
but | had no faith in patent medicines.
and for several weeks positively refused
to try them. They finally overcame my
prejudices, however, and | am glad of it,
for you can see for yourself what Pink
Pills have done for me. Come to the
house, and will show you my crutch
and cane which Pink Pills have enabled
me to lay aside.
have also been giving these pills TO a
neighbours child, which has scrofula,
and it is improving right along"
The reporter next visited the store of
B. L. Tabor, who zorro borated the testi-
mony of DR.. Porter and Mr.. Bailey. Mr..
Tabor further said that he had never
handled medicine that had given such
universal satisfaction as Pink Pills. and
it was almost impossible to supply the
demand. The address of all the gentle
men referred to is ElIiottsviile, Row
an county, Ke ltucky, and anyone can
have these state iaents verified by writ
ing tothem.
