But q short time go, in a distant part OF
the country, we heard Of q cure by the
use OF DR.. Williams Pink Pills, which
seemed almost marvellous, and more recent
" another substantial evidence Of their
value reached bur ears. Beingof an inquir-
ing turn OF mind, and wishing to know just
how much there was in the story, areporter
was sent 70 interview the person said to be
thus benefited If the narrative as it had
reached our ears was true, it was only
simple Justice to let it be known-h 1t
proved untrue, it would be well to know it.
The person alluded to above as having
been thus greatly benefited by the use of
Pink Pills is Mrs. Jane Hotalen, of Haines-
vile. n. r. a 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, q double
house, one part Of which is occupied by her
son. She is p~leasantfaced old lady, look
ing 70 be about s~ixty-hye, but Is In reality
s~eventv-two years of age. After a few pre-.
hminary remarks in explanation of the call
she was asked il she had any objection to
giving US the details OF the case and how
she came to try this now famous remedy.
tsNot at all, y said she. "If my experience
can Be- Of any good to others, am sure they
are welcome to it-it can do me no harm"

cit was about two years ago. The trouble
was rheumatic in character-sctat1ca, they
called it-and 1t was very painful Indeed.
The dificulty began In my hip and extended
the whole length of the limb, Gripping me
completely. | suffered intensely from 1t,
and The ordinary treatment gave me not the
slightest alleviation. Twas under treatment
about a month as stated, but grew worse1n-

what brought Pink Pillsto your n%otice2''
s'My son called my attention to an article
In a paper, in which it was stated that a MIR.
Struble, of Branchville, a village in this
county, had been greatly benefited by their
use, and suggested that it would be q good
plan to try them. But l was skeptlcal IN
regard to their value-in fact, l had no con
fidence in their efficacy n rather laughed
at the suggestion. But the trouble In
creased andI was badly crippled. A few
days later my son was about to visit q
neighboring town and suggested again that
II MIGHT be well to try this much2talked-of
remedy, and I then consented, He bought
me q box of them and l began taking them
at once. At the end of a week noted 9
marked Improvement, and by the umcl had
taken the first box l was able to walk with
sut a cane. I continued their use, taking
several boxes, and am, as you see, in a very
comfortable state o fhealth."
"Haveyo had any return of the trouble?'
'Not as yet, though at my time OF life,
seventy-two, it would not be surprising II
Ishould have. If it comes, l should at once
begin the use Of the pills. / supposed in
herit a tendency to troubles of this kind
my mother died from them."
ibid You ever note any i'll effects from the
use Of Pink Pillsg'
ssNone whatever. They never disturbed
my stomach in any way or caused me any
annoyance Neither did I find it necessary
TO increase the dose, as the directions say
may be desirable. am able, as you see, to
attend to my own work."
Tie reporter thanked Mrs. Hotalen for
her courtesy and babe her good day. 1t is
not often that one can witness such a com
plete recovery from such a p~ertinacious
trouble at such an advanced age, and suct
instances cannot fail to produce O profound
impression, Readers of the Union may rely
on the absolute accuracy of all the state
ments here g~iven-nothing has been exag
gerated, nothing withheld.
