Henry Gehrke is a thrifty and prosperous
German Farmer living four miles south of
Bullion, in this CAdair) county, Mo. Mr..
Gehrke has q valuable flrm and he has been
q resident of the county for years. He is
very well known herelOouts and well re
spected wherever he is known. Last week
4 reporter of the Journal stopped at Mr..
Gehrke's and while there became much in
terested in Mrs. Gehrke's account of the
benefit she had rot long since experienced
from the use of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. She said she wanted every
body to know what a great medicine these
pills are, but as so many people are praising
them nowadays, she modestly doubted
whether her testimony could add anything
10 what others had already said of them.
Her only reason for talking for publication
about Pink Pills was that the people Of
Adair and neighboring counties might be
convinced, if any doubted, that unpublished
testimonials concerning Pink Pills were
genuine statements from the lips of persons
who nave been benefited by the use of them.
Speaking of her own interesting experience,
Mrs. Gehrke said:
