SOURCE OF VITALITY

A Reporters Interesting Interview With
Lady of .eventy-two Years, ho
Tells a Marvellous story.
From the Union, Port FERRIS, N 7.
But short time ago, in distant part of
the country, we heard of cure by the use
OF DR.. Williams Pink Pills, which seemed
almost marvellous, and moro recently anoth-
or substantial evidence of their value reached
our ears. Being of an inqurins 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 bene-
fitted. If the narrative as It had reached our
ears was true it was only simple justice to
be we'll 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. j., 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, double house.
one part of which is occupied by her son.
She is a pleasant faced old lady, looking to
be about sixty-five, but is in reality seventy
two years of age. After 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. IF my experience
can be of any good to others, am sure they
are welcome to tit can do me no HARM"
"When were you taken sick and what was
the nature of the malady?" was asked.

was rheumatic in Characterization they

the whole length of the limb. Gripping me

the ordinary treatment gave me not the
slightest alienation. l was under tres tment
about month as stated, but grew worse in

What brought Pink Pills to your notice?"
"My sou called my attention to an article
in paper in which it was stated that a Mr.
Struble, of Branchville, village in this
! county, had been greatly benefited by their
use, and suggested that it would be good
plan to try them. But was skeptical III re-
gard to their yalue-in fact, had no conf
drnce in their efficacy and rather laughed
at the suggestion. But the trouble increased
| and was badly crippled. A few days
| later my son was about to visit neigh
boring town and suggested again that it
might be we'll to try this much-talked-of
remedy, and then consented. He bought
me II box of them and began taking them
ut once. At the end of q week I noted a
marked improvement, and by the time had
taken the first box was able to walk with
ont cane. l continued their use, taking
several boxes, and am, as you see, in a very
comfortable state of health

should have II it comes, should at once
begin the use of the pills. I suppose in
herit tendency TO troubles of this kind
my mother died from them"
'Did you ever note any ill effects from the
use Of Pink Pills?'
"None Whatever. They never disturbed
| annoyance. Neither did 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"
The reporter thanked Mrs. Hotalen for her
courtesy and babe her good day. 1t is not
often that one can witness such complete
recovery from such pertinaciOus trouble at
such an advanced age, and such Instances
cannot fail to produce profound impress
