HOW EASILY OBTAINED.
Leslie's for March Tells the Story

Leslie's Monthly Magazine in
the March number, publishes a
large article entitled "The Max
ing Of Medicine Man, or Dosing
the Public as a Business. In
that article they say many things
that are of interest to the laity.
One of their remarks is. eff a
man were to enter into the pro.
prietary medicine business the
least of his troubles would be the
securing of testimonials. )" They
say the first thing to obtain is a
plan of advertising; second, the
testimonials, and third, the med
icine.
We were sufficiently interested
in this subject to send our repor.
ter over to call on Mr.. Hill, OF
Hill Bros, to ask his views OF
this article. The first question
asked Mr.. Hill was, care the tes-
timonials published for patent
medicines bona-fide or fctl-
tious?" A quick response was
made, "bona-fde when they -ap-
pear above the name of our firm.
We don't know about the general
proprietary medicine testimonials
published, but we do know that
any testimonial published over
our name is real and it is genu-
inc. We must know it is so be-
cause every time we publish a tes-
timonial in the newspaper, adver-
Using some one Of the Rexall
Remedies. which we have spent a
good deal of money on, we know
that many of our customers read
it. Many find they have the same
symptoms, as the person who
signed the testimonial, and they
come to our store to buy the adj
vertised article. If they are not
cured they think that testimonial
fictitious because they cannot I'M
derstand why it doesn't cure them
| if it cured person with the
same symptoms. We guarantees
these people who come this way
a cure. otherwise we refund them
their money.
CHOW we are very careful
what we guarantee, as it means a
considerable loss to us when we
have to refund the money, and
for that reason you can readily
see why we are compelled to pub
lish true testimonials, as for ex-
ample this one, sent in voluntarily
without request on our part, for
Rexall Mucu-Tone Catarrh Cure.
It is strong evidence of the great
value of that medicine as a tonic

season of the year.
