AN INTERESTING CHAT

WITH REV. R. HATCHETT.

He Asserts People Should Speak Plaiuly When Their Words Will

Benefit Others. ,

From the Recorder, Brockville, Ont.

Rev. R. liatcbett, general agent of the

African Methodist Church in Sunndu, spent several days in Brockville recently in the interest cf the church work. Tnllr~ ing with is reporter he said he always liked to visit Brockville. because he found ro many of hs citizens in hearty sympathy with the church work he re- pri~seut~. “And besides, says lvfr. Hut- clietr, I have what may be called ii senil- mentai reason for liking Brockville. It In the home of ri iiieriiciui-. that has dune me much good and has done' much good to other ini min-r.v of my family. I refer to Dr. \Villi»<ins` Pink Pills." "Would you mimi," asked the reporter, "aiving your experience with Dr. \Viiiiauis` Pink Pills T" “Not nb nil," said Mr. IIntohe't, “I nlwnys any ii good word for thc medi- cinc wiionevirthe opportunity oilcrs. I know some people object to speaking in public about medicines they use, but I think this is a narrow View lo take.When one finds something really good and really helpful in relieving human ills, it seems to ms it isadnty we owe other sufferers ti put them in way of obtaining

new health. You can snygrorn me there- fore Lhat. I think Dr. iillams' Pink Pills a very superior medicine-I know of no other so good. MY work, as you may judge, is by no means iight, I have to travel a great deal in the interest of our church work, and il: is no wonder that ofieu I find myself much run down and afflicted almost with n general Dl'""*l'H- tion. it is on occasions of this kind that I res .rt to Dr. Williams' _Pink Pills, nnd I can s iy in ull sinoerity_ that they have neverfiilcd mc. The pills have also been used in my family, and among my friends and the results have always been satis- factory. You may just any from mo that I think those who are afflicted with any nf the ills for which this medicine is rr- oommendcd will make no mistake in giving Dr. Williams' Pink Pills n trial.

The Rev. Mr. Hatchett’s home is in

Hamilton, Ont., where he is known to most ol' the citizens and greatly rsteemed by those who know him.
