Cured OF Paralysis Amer Nearly

Newspaper men as a rule place little ere.
dence in patent medicine stories and seldom
bother to even read them. This is not 10 be
wondered at when il is taken into consider
alton how often they are called upon by I'M
scrupulous persons to fabricate and publish
stories Of remarkable cures and perhaps
print picture Of the mythical man or
woman supposed to have been cured. That
all medicine advertisements are not mere
fakes" and that all newspaper men are
not equally prejudiced is proven BY a story
published in the Cincinnati 7gmes-Star of n
well-known newspaper man whose life was
saved by reading an advertisement. So
remarkable and interesting is the story that
it is here reproduced as published in the
Times-iSdr.
Mr.. Charles B. Noble, The well-known
litterateur, who has been suffering for nearly
three years with paralysis, was upon the
street to-day, cheerful and active and the
recipient of congratulations from his MANY
friends. There is a bond of unity between
all newspaper men, so that Mr.. Mobiles case
appeals to every member of the craft as we'll
as to every one afflicted as he was. Mr..
Noble has spent the last three years in trav-
cling from city to city seeking skilled
physicians, TO whom he has appealed in
vain for relief. Knowing this, a reporter
expressed surprise at the remarkable cure.

that he was as sound as he looked. let the
reporter into the secret of his cure.

sense that name implies. For many yearo
previous to their general manufacture they
were used as prescription. At first their

remarkable success in such cases. and the
fact that there was nothing in the formula
that could do any HARM even if thew did
not do any good, led TO their being tried in
cases where the skill of the physician and
the power of medicine had entirely failed.
