the country, we heard OF cure by the
use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, which
seemed almost marvellous, and more recent
" another substantial evidence of their

how much there was In the story, areporter
was sent TO interview the person said to be
thus benefited. If the narrative as 1T had
reached our ears was true, it was only
simple Justice to let it be known-m it
proyed 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, Y. J., a pleasant hamlet in Sussex
COUNTY about fifteen miles from this Office.
The reporter had difficulty in finding
Mrs. Hotalen. 1t was nearly noon when
we reached her pleasant home, double
house, one part of which IS occupied by her
SON. She is pleasant-faced old lady. look

at the suggestion. But the trouble in
