To a reporter who recently called upon her to aseeriain the manner of hor cure, ebe said: "IL is to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I owe my release. It is some years since I had my first attack.

This .he accomplished, but I longed for a cure rather than for relief, and I finally consulted a topeciallst, who told me that he could cure mo, but that I must have patience. I asked him how long ,he thought it would require to efemit a cure, and he replied at least six mouths. He gave me medicine and I tools it faithfully, but instead of getting better was surely gs win B worse.

After he had been King three years, at a great feast ho sent for his beautiful Queen Vashti, but she did not like to be looked at by strangers, and would not come. The King, whose word was law, was very angry, and soon after this he chose a beautiful Jewess, named Esther, as Queen in Vashti's place. Esther was as good as she was lovely, and, though she became a grand Queen .she did not forget to love her people. A man palled Haman had risen to i great power, and was like a Prime Minister, and next to the King him- self. Ile hated the Jews with a cruel bitter hatred.
