HEAL TIL IN OLD AGE,
An Old Lady Finds the True
Source of Vitality.
A Reporters Interesting Interview
With Lady of Seventy-two
Years Who Tells a Mar
velouS Story.
From the Union, Port Jervis, N. Y.


But short time ago, in a distant part of the
country, we heard of cure by the use of DR..
Williams Pink Pills, which seemed almost
marvellous, and more recently another sub
stantial evidence OF their value reached our
ears. Being OF an inquiring turn of mind,
and wishing to know just how much there was
in the story, a reporter was sent to interview
the person said to be thus benefited. If the
narrative as it had reached our ears was true,
1t was only simple justice to let ii be known
if il proved untrue, it would be well TO know it.
The person alluded to above as having been
thus greatly bened dted by the use of Pink Pills
is Mrs. Jane Hotalen of Hainesville N j.
pleasant hamlet in Sussex County about fif-
teen miles from this Office The reporter had
no difficulty in finding Mrs. Hotalen. 1t was
nearly noon when we reached her pleasant
home, a double house, one part of which is
occupied by her son. She is pleasant-faced
old lady, looking to be about sixty-fve, but is
in reality seventy-two years of age. After a
few preliminary remarks in explanation of the
call, she was asked If she had any objection to
giving us the details OF the case and how she
came to try this now famous remedy.
''Not at ALL" said she. III my experience
can be of any good TO others, I am sure they
are welcome to it-it can do me no harm"
"When were you taken sick and what was
the nature of the malady?'' was asked.
lit was about two years ago. The trouble
was rheumatic in eharaeter-sciatiea they
called it-and it was very painful indeed. The
difficulty began in my hip and extended the
whole length of the limb, Gripping me COM
pletely. l suffered intensely from it, and the
ordinary treatment gave me not the slightest
alleviation. L was under treatment about a
month ago, as stated, out grew worse instead
of better, and was fast becoming discouraged"
''What brought Pink Pills to your notice?"
"My son called my attention to an article in
paper, in which it was stated that Mr..
Struble OF Branchvllle, village in this county,
had been greatly benefited by their use, and
suggested that 1t would be good plan to try
them. But was skeptical in regard to their
value; in fact, had no confidence in their
efficacy and rather laughed at the suggestion.
But the trouble increased and l was badly
crippled. few days later my son was about

again that it might be well to try this much
talked-of remedy, and then consented. He
bought me box OF them and began taking
them at once. At the end of week noted

boxes and am, as you see, in q very comfort

desirable. l am able, as you see, to attend to

The reporter thanked Mrs. Hotalen for her
courtesy and bade her good-day. 1t is not often
that one can witness such complete recovery
from such a pertinacious trouble at such an
| advanced age, and such instances cannot fail
| to produce profound Impression. Readers of
the Union may rely on the absolute accuracy of
al the statements here given-nothing has
| been exaggerated. nothing withheld.
