terested in Mrs. Gehrke's account of the
benefit she had not long since experienced
from the use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills

body to know what a great medicine these
pills are, but as SO many people are prais.

whether her testimony could add anything
to what others had already said of them.
Her only reason for talking for publication
about Pink Pills was that the people of
convinced, If any doubted, that oft-pub-
lished testimonials concerning Pink Pills
were genuine statements from the lips of per-
sons who nave been benefited by the use of
them. Speaking of her own interesting ex-
perience, Mrs. Gehrke said:
