keeper obliged them, and was ten

trumps had no more money, and, l
there being no alternative, the s i
loon man emptied the whiskey
back into the cask, and the tramps
left with their demijohn. A few
minutes later the tramps went in
to a vacant lot and carefully broke
the dem'john. From the pieces
they de icately lifted out a bath

soaked with whiskey.”

From thr Fret Preu. BeluU, Wis.
Wyoming, Wisconsin, June tlth, 1896.
Dr. Williams’ Jfed. Co., Schenectady, A'. >
Gentlemen .•—Replying to your favor of
recent date, I called on Mrs. Jane Culver,
of Wyoming, Wis., yesterday. I bad heard
much about her case before I went to see
her. She has so long been regarded by her
family and all her neighbors as a hopeless
invalid that her present state of health is
nothing less than a marvel in this (Wyom
ing) valley.
For more than a year past, and up to the
month of March last Mrs. Culver had lain
actually at the point of death. Her neigh
bors and friends expected daily to be called
upon to perform the “last sad offices" for
her, and when they learned that she had
actually arisen from her bed and could “sit
up,” it was felt that little less than a resur
rection had happened in their midst.
Yet imagine the astonishment when a
week or two later it was announced in the
“ valley ” that she could walk, and when
she was, at lust, really aide to meet ami
shake hands with friends in the door, yard,
or upon the street, it was felt that truly a
miracle had been wrought in their midst.
I found Mrs. Culver, a pleasant faced, at
tractive little woman, about her household
work when I called on June sth. She was,
in fact, picking over gooseberries, and'her
first remark after greeting was that in all her
fifty-eight years she could not recall so
“early ” a season for fruit and garden stuff
as the present. She talked freely of her long,
sad illness—the dreary truck of pain and
weakness over which for twenty years her
body hail been racked, and told withevident
happiness of her wonderful cure. “ The truth
is,” she said, “I was dead and am alive
again.” And there was no lack of enthusiasm
in her voice as she spoke of the sovereign
remedy which had wrought such wonder
work for her. She was surrounded by the
members of her family,her husband,daughter
and grandchildren, and Pink Pills was cer
tainly the burden of their happy conversa
tion during my visit.
But her cure, after all, is best summed up
in her own simple and succinct statement,
which she made in the hope of doing good
to others.
Mrs. <'tilver is a woman of education and
refinement. Her husband was postmaster
at Wyoming during President Harrison’s
ad ministration. Among those of their
neighbors who can farther attest the facts in
her case are the present postmaster and his
wife, Mr. ami .Mrs. Richard Dunstan, Mr.
and Mrs. C. W. Parks. Mr. and Mrs. Solon
Knickerbocker, and scores of others living
here in the town and valley of Wyoming.
P. S.—l must confess 11-it, 1 had an idea
that patent medicine testimonials were mostly
fakes, manufactured in the good-humored
spirit of humbuggery which delights the i
world at large. In this ease which I have
looked np myself I have found nt the ti-s*
trial a cute so astonishing that I. have been
afraid to write the facts jn«t ns the aetmd
history of the ease demanded. 5 have b
truly fearful lot 1 should seem to overdo i
and thus spoil this splendid testimonial. I
ean send you a hundred names of persons
who will vouch for the fact* as herein stated.
* Yours sincerely and with admiration and
respect for Pink Pills.
(Signed) “F. W. C.”
The above letter is a reply to a request
from the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company
asking Mr. Calkins to interview the lady
I mentioned and write up her case for publi
cation. Not the least interesting part of it
is Mr. Calkins’ own straightforward state
ment of qstonishment at Mrs. Culver's story.
The interview with Mrs. Culver follows:
“ I am very glad to add my testimony to
the growing evidence of Pink Pill cures.
The facts in my case are simply these,
i Twenty years ago I began having rheuma
tism- rheumatic pains in my shoulders.
This developed later on into what the doctor*
called chronic neuralgia of the heart. In
fact I had a complication of diseases and was
doctored and ad vised for many ailments. I
grew steadily worse. Insidiously disease
fastened upon me. My liver and kidneys
were affected. 1 had palpitation of the heart
until my limbs would grow rigid and my
friends would think me dying.
“ 1 sought remedies and medical advice
farandnear From Wisconsin toNew York
1 tried physicians of every school. Allo
pathy. homieopathy, electric and even clair
voyants and Indian herb doctors. During
the years that my husband was post master
at Wyoming we- had access to heaps of ad
vertising, ami throifgh circulars freely dis
tributed, I tried all sorts of remedies and
consulted many physicians. Year by year
I grew steadily worse, until last tear, 1895,
I became a bed-ridden invalid, and in March
of tliis year my physician said all I had to
do was to close my eyes and die. I was
nothing but a skeleton.
“ About the 2uth of March a neighbor who
had been troubled with rheumatism and had .
been taking Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cam*
in and asked me to try them. I had read
much about them, but was discouraged with
trying new remedies. I commenced their
use, however, and in a few days began feel
ing better The neuralgia pains fled from
the region of my heart and stomach. In on*
week 1 was able to sit up for an hour or two
at a time. In a little more than two weeks
I could walk, and in May I began doing
housework. lam now able to do my work
and am free from the frightful pains and ,
awful weakness from which I suffered 'O
many years. I owe this state of health to
Pink Pills mid to nothing else.
“ My best wish is that this simple and
true statement will induce others suffering
as I did to give the pills a trial.
