The great frequency with which our At

slcs. which generally 20 the rounds of all
The Leading newspapers. has caused us 10
wonder and speculate "A great deal az 10
Hhy none Of these things ever happened

crest and wonder grew 10 such a pitch
hat. knowing a certain lady In Bussey TO
De a regular purchaser of Pink Pills for
something over two years, by reason Of
he fact that she had also induced our
swn wife to give IL a trial, with very ben
siicial results, we at last determined to
put the matter 10 the test and see if this
tdy could put aside her natural repug-
aance TO appearing 80 prominently in print
" order 10 encourage people generally
~ the greater use OF her favorite remedy,
by giving her testimonial for publication
In her home paper, where those who read
would know that il was no h0ax fixed up
merely to catch the unwary and credulous.
With this object IN view. we called IN
Tuesday afternoon on Anna Elliott, wIfe
Of our esteemed townsmaB, w. A. Elliott,
proprietor Of the Commercial Hotel, the
leading hosiery of Bussey. Iowa. Mrs.
Elliott Is a lady well known for the ability
and tact displayed in the management of
the interior arrangements and affairs OF
the hotel, and the wonder has always
been with those who have observed the
amount of care and exertion required on
her part, as to how she ever managed 10
keep up so well under the strain, and we
give the sequel in her own words:
II have been landlady Of the CONNER
cial House now for nearly six years and
for a long time was hardly able 10 get
along with the work ct all, being always
out Of sorts, affected by pains in the head,
dizziness and general weakness and ner-
vousness, always feeling oyerworked and
hardly able TO drag myself around from
morning till night, often nearly wishing
thu i were dead.
IF things had gone on muca longer in
this way / would certainly have broken
down entirely and had to give up my
work. but, luckily. just at this juncture. |
happened to read an article about DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
which seemed 10 cover the symptoms of
my case exactly, and ! sent direct TO the
DIR. Williams Medicine Company, at
Schenectady, y. Y. and procured two
trial boxes. These did me SO much good
and | felt So much encouraged that ! sent
for a $3.50 package, and have always
taken good care To keep n supply of them
on hand. since, In over two years now.
'Their continued use put me on my feet
completely, as the saying is. and | have
felt stronger and better able 10 do my
work and see TO things about the hotel
than | ever was in my life before, Il
PINK Pills have become the standard rem

completely cured of "A very bad and long
standing case Of kidney trouble, while q
number of the neighbors who have tried
them speak highly in the praise Of this
remedy. and declare that there is no other
medicine that can possibly supply it's
place"
Those who know Mrs. E".;2tt know full
well that she would not be willing 10 au-
