Remarkable Narrative.

[Fron, the Syracuse Standard
During the past lew months there have
appeared In the columns OF the Standard tho
particulars OF number OF cures so remark
able rs to justify the term miraculous. These
cases were investigated and vouched for by
the Albony journal, the Detroit Ne,os, AZ
bany Express and other papers whose repu-
taiion is guarantee that the facts were as
stated. Different schools OF medicine and
some OF the brightest lights in the profession
had treated these cases, unsuccessfully and
their recovery later on, therefore, and lis
mesns. have created a profound sensation
throughout the country.
The Standard has published the above ac-
counts for what they were worth, and are
happily able to supplement same to-day by
an equally striking case near home. The
case is over in Madison County, at Solsville,
and the subject is Mr.. Philander Hyde, who
told the reporter the following
~ will be 10 in September. was born in
Brookfeld, Madison County, where all my
life was spent until recently, when, becom-
Ing helpless. / came to live with my daugh-
Ger here. My life occupation has been that
Of farmer. l was always we'll and rugged
until two years ago last winter, when 1 had

OF numbness in my legs, which gradually
grew TO be stiff at the joints and very pain
1ul. | felt the stiffness in my feet first, and
the pain and the stiffness extended to my
knees and to my hip joints, and to the bowels
and stomach, and prevented digestion. To
move the bowels l was compelled 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. I could not

''The physicians consulted pronounced
fathers case creeping paralysis" said Mr..
and Mrs. johnson, "and when we brought
him home he had to be carried all the way
IA bed. The doctors said they could only
relieve the pain, and for the purpose he
took pint of whisky 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 Off 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 Mr.. Hyde, "and the pain hat
gone out of my back and the numbness Gus
OF my legs I have no more chills, my di.
gestion is good, and have an excellent ap-
petite" And then, after pause, "But, ah,
me, am an old man l have seen my best
days, and cannot hope to recover my old

thankful to have the use Of my limbs and to
be relieved of those dreadful pains"

using them with satisfactory effect for rheu-

nervous debility.
