'Just about a year ago, our daughter Ena,e(fourteen years) was taken with
terrible pains in the right side. The pain was so severe that wehadto carry her
to bed. We at once put her under tne care of a first-class doctor, who pronouneed
it a case of Appendicitis and advised an operation.
We took her to a hospital in Kingston where she was again examined by an
eminent epecialist He said she had Appendicitis and mat be operated on at
once ff We wanted to save her life. As we had taken her to Kingston tO'have
this done, we were ready, but our daughter was afraid and cried and begged so
tItat we postponed
it for thaeday. Luckily for
us and for her an uncle came
in with tiomenFraina-tives'
and insisted on Ella taking
them. Good resells were
-apparent, almost from the

treatment cured her,

in his charming sketch.es Sir Sternee
Lemoine of Spencer Grange has given -
to his English readers a number of
ranquet's most intereeting chapters.
One tells of a mid -winter journey
formed by Marquis Duquesne and

A.BOY'S STRUGGLE roR LIFE
. bfa. 9. L New, of IA Rah:twin Si., Toronto, says: I can trace
my soot lisrold's tree* to when he had the measles five yam ago,
from which he never really recovered. Some of the best physicleas,
attended him, but with months of suffering he be turn contracted
whooping cough, bronchitis, and then pneontonia. Month after
Montk went by that we shall not soon forget; months of sleepless
nights, fearful couths, weakening night sweats, left my boy a tucks
shadow. He had' no appetite, and my heart ached to see
how be Was lusting away. Ile spent one whole summer at
the Lakeside Home for Sick Children, and came home
greatly improved, but the cold winds of October took
him off hie feet again. The doctor advised me to send
him to Muskoka, but heavy doctor's bills had depleted
my financial resources, and such a step seemed out of
the question."
"At this point we tried PS VCHINE. and human
lips eannot describe the Change that took place. No
words can express the thankfulness of his mother and
'myself when We saw the crisis was over, and realized
that our boy was fighting hi* way back to life and
health. PSYCHINE had mastered that which all
the doctors prescriptions had failed to check. Day by
day Harold grew stronger, and all through the winter,
.although continually out of doors, he failed to take
• Cold, and he put (=flesh vary quickly. Hy the spring
my von was completely cured, and developed Into a
strong, sturdy lad.'

science, and should be used for
