SOLSVILLE MIRACLE.
Restoration of Philander Hyde
 from Paralysis.
Helpless and Bed-Ridden-Hls Recovery from This Pitiable Condition-A
 Remarkable Narrative.
From the Syracuse Standard, l

Dpring the past few months there have ,,near,d in the columns of the Standard the ',artirulars of number of cures so remark aahIe as to justify the term miraculous. Tbpse cases were investigated and vouched for by the Albdny Journal, the Detroit NetCs,
 Ubqrv Express and other papers whose rep rtation is a guarantee that the facts were os stated. Different schools of medicine and some of tho brightest lights in the pro- fession had treated these cases, unsuccess- fuIly: and their recovery later on, there fore. and it's means, have created aprofound sensation throughout the country.
 The Standard has published the above &C., counts for what they were worth, and are bappily able to supplement same to-day by an equally striking case near home, The ease is over in Madison county, at Solsville, and the subject is Mir. Philander Hyde, who told the reporter the following:
 ,I will be % in September. was born in Brookfield, Madison county, where all my life was spent until recently, when, be- coming helpless, l came to live with my daughter here. My life occupation has been that of farmer. was always well and rugged until two years ago last winter, when had the grip. When it left me had sensation of numbness in my legs, which gradually grew to be stiff at the joints and very painful l felt the stiffness in my feet first and thepain and the stiffness extended to my knees and to my hip joints, and to the bowels and stomach, and prevented di- geston To move the bowels was com peled to take great quantities of castor oil
 While was in this condition, cold feel ings would begin in my feet and streak up my legs to my back and would follow the whole length of my back bone. could not sleep, had no appetite, I become helpless. While in this condition was treated by @ number of prominent physicians. They did me no good. I soon became perfectly help less and lost all power of motion even in my bed"
 "The physicians consulted pronounced fathers case creeping paralysis" said Mir. and Mrs Johnson, "and when we brought him home he had to be carried all the way in bed. The doctors said they could only relieve the pain, and for the purpose he took pint of whiskey a day for three months, and morphine in great quantities. When he began taking Pink Pills we stopped giving him morphine or any other medicine, and cut of all stimulants. In ten days after father began taking the pills, he could get out of bed and walk without assistance, and has continued to improve until now he walks about the house and the streets by the aid of a cane only"
 Yes" said Mir Hyde, 'and the pain has gone out of my back and the numbness out of my legs. have no more chills, my di- gestion is good, and I have an excellent ap- petite" And then, after pause, But, ah, me am an old man; have seen my best days, and cannot hope to recover my old vigOr as younger man might, but am so thankful to have the use of my limbs and to be relieved of those dreadful pains"
 Others in Solsville are taking Pink Pills, notably the mother of Abel Curtis, who is using them with satisfactory effect for rheu- matism, and Mrs. Lippitt, wife of ex-Sen- atOr Lippitt, is using them with much bene- fl for nervous debility.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills contain in a con- densed form all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood, and restore shattered nerves. They are an un- failing specific for such diseases as locomo- tor ataxia, partial paralysis, St Vitus' dance, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, and that tired feeling resulting from nervous prostration; all diseases re- sulting from vitiated humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregular. ities and all forms of weakness. In men they effect radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork or excesses of whatever nature.
 These Pills are manufactured by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady N. Y., and Brockville, Ont, and are sold only in boxes bearing the firms trademark and wrapper at 30 cents box, or six boxes for S2. 30, and are never sold in bulk or by the dozen or hundred.
