From The Union, Port Jervfs. N. r.
But short time ago, in distant part Of.
the country, we heard Of cure by the
use Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills, which
seemed almost marvellous, and more recent
ly another substantial evidence of their
value reached our ears. Beingof an inQuir-
Ing turn Of mind, and wishing to know just
how much there was in the story, areporter
was sent to interview the person said 10 be
thus benefited. II the narrative as 1t had
reached our ears was true, it was only
simple justice to let it be known-f Il
proved untrue, 1t would be well to know 1t.
The person alluded to above as having
been thus greatly benefited by tho use Of
Pink Pills is Mrs. Jane Hotalen, of Haines-
vile, N. j., o pleasant hamlet In Sussex
County, about fifteen miles from this Office.
The reporter had no difficulty In finding
Mrs. Hotalen. 1t was nearly noon when
we reached her pleasant home, double
house, one part of which Is occupied by her
son. She is o pleasant-faced old lady, look
Ing to be about sixty five, but is in reality
seventy-two years OF age. After fcw pro
iiminary remarks in explanation OF the call,
she was asked II she had any objection to
giving US the details Of the case and how
she came to try this now famous remedy.
