HEALTH IN OLD AGE.

A Reporter's Interesting Interview with a Lady of Seventy-two Years, Who Tells a Marvelous'Story. From the Union, Port Jervia. X. T. But a. short time ago, in a distant part of the country, we heard of a cure by the use of Ur. Williams’ Pink Pills, which seemed almost marvelous, and more recently another substantial evidence of their value reached our ears. Being of an inquiring turn of mind, and wishing to know just how much there was in tjm 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, it was only simple justice to let it be known—if it proved untrue, it would be well to know it. The persou alluded to above *s having been thus greatly l>enefifed bv the use of Pink Pills is Mr*. J.me Hotaleu, of Hainesville, N. J., a piMiant hamlet in Sussex County, about fifteen miles from this ottice. The reporter had no difficulty in finding Mrs. Hotnlen. It was nearly noon when we reached her pleasant homo, a double house, one part of which is occupied by her son. She is a pleasant-faced old lady, looking to be about sixty-live, but is in reality seventytwo years of age. Afirr 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. “If my experience enu lie of auy good to others, I am sure they are welcome to it —it cau do me no harm." “When were yon taken sick and what was the nature of the malady if” was asked. "It was about two years ago. The trouble was rheumatic in character —sciatica, they called it —and it was very painful indeed. The difficulty began in my hip and extended the whole length of the limb, crippling me completely. I suffered intensely from it, and the ordinary treatment gave me not the slightest alleviation. I was under treatment about a month as staled, but grew worse instead of better, aud was fast becoming discouraged.” “What brought Pink Pills to your notice?"

“My son called my attention to an article in a paper, in which it was stated that a Mr. Struble, of Branehvllle, a village in this county, had been gre'ntly benefited by their use. and suggested that it would be a good plttu to try them. But I was skeptical in regard to their value—in fact. I had no confidence In their efficacy and rather laughed at the suggestion. But the trouble increased nnd I was badly crippled. A few days later my son was about to visit a neighboring town nnd suggested ugaln that it might be well to try this much-talked-of remedy, and I then consented. He bought me a box of them and 1 began taking them at once. At the end of u week I noted a marked improvement, and by the time I hud taken the first box I was able to wolk without a cane. I continued their use, taking several boxes, and am, ns you see, In a very comfortable state of health." “Have you had auy return of the trouble?” “Not as yet, though at my time of life, seventy-two, it would not be surprising If 1 should have. If It optnc*. I should-at once begin the use of tlife pills. \ suppose I inherit a tendency to troubles of this kind—uiy mother died from them.” "Did you ever note any ill effects from the use of Pink Pills?" “None whatever. They never disturbed my stomach in any way or caused me any annoyance. Neither did I find it necessary to increase the dose, as the directions say may he desirnblc. I am aide, as you see, to attend to my own work." The reporter thanked Mrs. Ilotaleu for her courtesy aud bade her good day. It is not often that one can witness such a complete recovery from such a pertinacious trouble nt such an advanced age, and such instances cannot fail to produce a profound impression. Penders of the Union may rely on the absolute accuracy of all the statements here given—nothing has been exaggerated, nothing withheld. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life nnd richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They ore an unfailing specific for all form* of weakness either in male or female, aud all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt, of price, 50 cents a box, or six boxes for 52.50, by addressing Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co.. Schenectady, N. Y.
