Newspsp r men - rule place little Gre
dence in patent med I, inc stories and seldom
bother to even read them. This is not to
be wondered at when it 10 taken into con-
siderstion how often they are called upon
by interruptions persons to fabricate and
publish stories of remarkable cures and
perhaps print q 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
story published in the Cincinnati Times
Star of we'll. known newspaper man whoee
life was saved BY reading an advertisement
So remarkable and interesting is the story
that it is here reproduced as published IN
the Iimes-Star.
Mr.. Charles B. Noble, the well-known
litterateur, who has been suffering for near
" three years with paralysis, was upon the
street today, cheerful and active and the
recipient of congratulations from his many
friends. There is bond of unity between
all newspaper men, so that Mr.. Mobiles case
appeals to every member of the craft a. well
as to everyone afflicted as he was. Mr..
Noble has spen. the last three years in trav-
cling from city to city seeking sfilled
physicians, to whom he has appealed in vain
for relief. knowing this, q reporter ex-
pressed surprise at the remarkable cure but
Mr.. Noble, after executing a jig to show
that he was as strong as he looked, let the
reporter into the secret of bis cure.

Publishing Company of New York City as
their travelling representative from Cinrin-
natl. found the travelling a great bel to
me, both in financial and a literary way.
but suddenly stricken down as l was at
Somerset, O., $50 miles from Cincinnati,
was incapaciated for both writing and
money making. Luckily my literary pro-
auctions had been renumerative, and had
a snug bank account laid up, but these three
years have made drain on it.
II sought score of ply sicians. g,ing to
the best specialists in Cincinnati, Chstta
nooga and Pittsburg. Twelve Cincinnati
doctors, pronounced my case incurable, but
l would not give up, and after seeking in
vain for relief in Pittst u.g and Cnatta-
nooga, consulted the lest medical talent in
Chicago. Up to January II, 1898. he'd
spent $500 for doctors and medicine and
was about to give up in despair when got

Pink Pills, while advertised and handled
by the drug trade as proprietary article,
are not considered u patent medicine in the
sense that name implies. For many years
previous to their general manufacture they
were used as prescription. At first their
great restorative powers were not fully recog-
nized and they were CHI fly prescribed for
impure blood and general wee kness Their
remarkable success in such cases, and the
fact tn It there was nothing in the formula
that could do any harm, even if they did
not do any good, led to their being tried in
cues wh.re the skill of the physician and
the power of medi, inc had Ell tirely failed.
Their power of restoration seemed to border
on the marvellous. They proved to be a
