THE QUESTION WHICH WORRIED

"Testimonials" Are Not Fakes -Mrs.
Eliiott's story "a Ciincher.
From the Banner. Bussev, IoWd.
The great frequency with which our at
,ention has been attracted to certain arti-
Flea, which generally 20 the rounds of all
The leading newspapers, has caused MS TO
wonder II speculate "A great deal AZ TO
why zone of these things ever happened
% occur nearer home. and finally our in
ierest and wonder grew TO such a pitch
hat, knowing n certain lady In Bussey 10
De a regular purchaser of Pin Pills for
something over two years, by reason of
he fact that she had also induced our
own wife To give il a trial, with very ben
liicial results, we at last determined TO
put the matter TO the test and see il this
Ndy could put aside her natural repug-
aancc to appearing 80 prominently in print
W order TO encourage people generally
10 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 hoax fixed up
merely 10 catch the unwary and crcdulous.
With this object in view, we called on
Tuesday afternoon on Anna Elliott, wife
Of our esteemed townsman, w. A. Elliott,
proprietor of the Commercial Hotel, the
leading hostelry of Bussey. Iowa. Mrs.
Elliott Is II lady well known for the ability
and tact displayed in the management of
the interior arrangements aud 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 TO
keen up so well under the strain, and we
give the sequel in her own words:
81 have been landlady OF the CONNER
cial House now for nearly six years, and
for a long time was hardly able TO get
along with the work 1T 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
tina; l were dead.
IF things had gone on much longer in
this way | would certainly have broken
down entirely and had 10 give up my
work, but, luckily. just at this juncture, l
happened 10 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. u, and procured two
trial boxes. These did me SO much good
and | felt SO much encouraged that | sent
for n $3.50 package, and have always
taken good care to keep n supply of them
on hand, since, I'm over two years now.
"rheir continued use put me on my feet
completely, as the saying is, and | have
felt stronger and better able TO do my
work and see to things about the hotel
than | ever was in my life before, and
Pink Pills have become the standard rem

"One member of our family has been
completely cured of n very bad and long
standing case Of kidney trouble, while n
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 Its
place
Those wh0 know Mrs. E";2tt know full
well that she would NOT be willing TO au-
thorize the publication of the above state
menr without every word of il being strict
ly true, but to prove co~nclusively to amy
strangers who may read this article that
1t is every word las true rs gospel She
subscribcs to the following affidavit, in
the hope that her fellow beings who suffer
as she did may be convinced of the Won
derful merits of Pink Pills for Pale peo-
pie, and thereby be led TO obtain relief
through giving them a prompt and thor
ough trial.
