NEURALGIA OF THE HEART

THETERRIBLE DISEASE THAT ATTACKED MRS. HENRY OSTING. Slowly Losing Her Life—Physicians Were Powerless-FriendsWere Helpless—At Last She Found a Remedy with Which She Cured Herself and Laughed at Physicians. From the Xew Era. Greenbtirg. lad. Hearing through Messrs. Bigney & Co., druggists, of Suninau, Ripley County, lnd., that Mrs. Osting, wife of Henry Osting, a prominent and influential citizen of that town, had been cured of a bad case of neuralgia of the heart and stomach, the editor of the New Era determined to know for the satisfaction of himself and the benefit of his readers the truth in regard to the matter, and took advantage of a trip to Runman last week. The Osting residence is a very handsome one, and on every hand are seen the footprints of good fortune. Mrs. Osting herself, hale and heart}’, invited us into her cozy parlor. One could hardly believe by looking at the lady, who showed all signs of good health, that she was but nine months ago a despondent victim of that dread disease, neuralgia of the heart and stomach. In answer to the question if she had been cured of a bad disease of neuralgia by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and as to whether she objected to an interview, she replied in her pleasant way, ‘‘Why, no, sir, I don’t, for they’ve done me such a wonderful good that I feel I owe everything to them.” And tue statement was to be believed, for she was the example of perfect health, and we were informed by her neighbors and friends that but a short while ago she was only a living corpse. Mrs. Osting continued: “No, sir; 1 never did have good health; I was always naturally weak. Wnen quite young 1 began experiencing trouble from my heart and stomach, which the doctors said was neuralgia. I was continually suffering great pain, but not one of the many wellversed physicians from whom I received treatment was able to do me any good. Severe, sharp pains would shoot over my entire body, and more severely through my heart a'nd stomach. My entire system became nervous as pains would increase; my appetite began to fail, and for weeks I could not eat a meal —just mince over the'victuals. I couldn't sleep, and would only pass the nights in agony. It’s a wonder that I kept up at all, for it’s so little that I could eat and sleep, for 1 suffered so. No physicians could do me any good. My family physician said the case was hopeless. 1 was discouraged. 1 had tried*every medicine that 1 could hoar of, that was claimed to be good for my troubles, but not one did me the least good. Finally, I heard of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and our druggist, Mr. Bigney, advised me to try them, for he said they had done so many people good. I had no faith in patent medicines then, for none had done me any good, but I thought I would try them, for surely they couldn’t hurt me. I found relief immediately after I began taking them, and the longer 1 took them the better I got. By the time I used six boxes I was entirely cured. 1 never had been able to do my work before. I began taking the pills last October, and in December 1 was well and able to do my work. I can truly say, for the benefit of other sufferers, that I owe my health to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” To confirm her story beyond all doubt. Mrs. Osting made the following affidavit:

State of Indiana, County of Ripley, ss: Mrs. Henry Osting, being duly sworn on her oath, saii'h the foregoing statement is just and true. MRS. HENRY OSTING. Sworn and subscribed before me, July 20, 1895. V. W. BIGNEY, Notary Public. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are considered an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’ dance, sciatica,''neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, that tired feeling resulting from nervous prostration; all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are sold 'by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price (50 cents a box or six boxes for s2.so—they are never sold in bulk or by the 100), by addressing Dr. Williams’ Med. Co., Schenectady, N. Y. German papers assert that gas pipes made of paper are a success. Manila paper strips are passed through melted asphaltum and then molded under heavy pressure. After cooling the pipes, which may be of any desired length, they receive a water proof coating. Ignorance is less removed from the truth than prejudice.
