Clinton New Era, 1894-11-09, Page 8CITY OF HAMILTON SHIRRED UP,
a Interesting and Well-known
Lad Taken Home from St. '
Joseph's Hospital to Die.
The Whole Staff of Physicians and Trained
Nurses Declared His Case to be a
Hopeless One
At the Point of Death, Paine's Cel-
ery Compound Cured Him.
One of the Most Desperate Cases Ever known --Limbs and
Body Swollen—An Unrecognizable Piece of Humanity—
The Bo`y's Body is Tapped and Two Gallons of Water Taken
Away—After Medical Skill Failed, Paine's Celery Com-
pound Works Miraculously—A11 statements Vouched for by
Geo. LeRiche, Esq., late of J. Winer & Co., and David
Morton, Esq., Superindent, of St. Paul's Presbyterian Church
Sunday School.
Young AleokMclntosh,interesting, bright
and good looking, is a lad in his teens, and
resides with his parents at No. 107
Catherine Street south, Hamilton, Ont.
The members of the family are Well and
favorably known, and attend St. Paul's
Presbyterian, church of which Rev. R. J.
Laidlaw, L.L.D. i3 pastor.
Some months ago, to the great grief and
consternation of Mr and Mrs McIntosh ;
their son Aleck was strioken down with a
terrible swelling of the limbs and throat.
Notwithstanding the fact that the boy was
tinder the Dare of an able and experienced
doctor, his condition became most alarm-
ing. At this juncture a consultation was
held by three of the leading phys:oians of
the city, and the result was that Aleck
was sent to the hospital, whe:'e he might
have all the advantages of medical skill,
and the constant attention of trained
nurses.
At the end of four weeks Aleck's condi-
, ton was more alarming than ever, and his
parents were assured that there was no
possible chance of recovery for their dear
boy. He lay on his hospital bed nerfectly
helpless, and so swollen from heaa to foot
that he was unrecognizable.
The sorrowing parents, feeling that there
was no hope, and that the hand of death
had securely grasped their loved boy, .wish-
ed to have him die+in their home. As he
was being taken from the hospital, those in
charge expressed sorrow that nothing more
you'd be done for the dying lad.
When at home, and at the point of death,
a kind neighbor called to see him. A
thought—a revelation—came to her mind.
A joyous hope filled her motherly hear;, as
she gazed on the dying boy, and witnessed
the intense grief of the parents. She re-
membered having herself used in an ex-
treme case that great life -giver and health -
restorer, Paine's Celery Compound.
Would it meet this case where the vital
spark was a'most extinguished? Yes, she
had faith that it would. The use of Paine's
Celery Compound jwas suggested to the
parents. "Ah! yes, try it —anything—if
dear Aleck's life can be saved."
The wondrous Compound was immediate-
ly procured and properly administered.
The first_ dose produced results that gave
the partitlts hope. There was a virtue in
this medicine that no other remedy ever
contained. The boy lived, and the medi-
cine was continued from day to day with
results that gave joy and gladness. By the
time the fourth bottle was finished young
Aleck McIntosh was well, and all his
troubles banished. To -day he is as strong
and robust as any boy of his age in the
city,
All the physicians look upon the cure as
a marvellous one, and the whole staff of St.
Joseph's Hospital rejoice at the lad's re•
atoration to health.
Scores of Hamilton's best people can
vouch for every statement made in con.
motion with this unparalleled case. The
statements male by Mr and Mrs Jame,
-. -McIntosh, the bay's parents, are ably sup-
ported by two of Hamilton's leading busi-
ness men. Such sterling proofof the value
of Paine's Celery Compound,should strong-
ly convince every sufferer, and all who have
suffering and diseased friends, that there is
no otheromedieine known to the medical
profession and the public, that can so ef-
fectually and honestly meet the needs of all.
It is the only medioine in the world that
saves and cures the sufferer when he or she
is given up by the doctor.
Mr and Mrs James McIntosh write as
follows: •
—
"We are willing and anxious to give a
testimonial • letter in reference to the mar-
vellous cure yourPaine'e Celery Compound
efieoted for our son Alexander.
"The case is snob an important one, and
has attracted to much attention in this city,
we would like it to be as fully oommunicat-
ed to the public as possible.
"Our son Alexander was taken with
swelling of the limbs, and'in a few days
after the throat was similarly affected. At
this stage he was confined to his bed for
about two weeks, when he became some-
what better. A short time after he got
worse, the swellingaffeoting his whole body
and limbs. He continued in bed under the
close attention of one of our best doctors,
when a consultation 'of three leading
physicians was held, and we were informed
that the case was so serious that he would
have to go to the hospital where thegixper-
ience and skill of the whole staff of phy-
sioians could be employed, and where train-
ed nurses could be in attendance 1day and
night.
"For long weeks our boy suffered and
battled heroically with his disease. At
the end of that time we were assured that
there was no possible chance of 'recovery.
Everything had been done that could be
done, even to tapping, ander which
operation two gallons of water was
taken from the body. For two weeks
after thisoperation he was perfectly helpless,
and so swollen from head to foot as to be
unrecognizable.
"That he might die in our midst we
made arrangements to have him coniteyed
to our home. As we carried him out of
the hospital the good:people in charge re-
marked, "they were sorry that nothing
could be done to our poor dying boy."
"While Aleck lay in bed in our home a
friend and neighbor called. She had used
Paine's Celery Compound successfully for
an extreme case of neuralgia. Our friend
said she would write and ask you if it was
advisable to use Paine's Celery Compound
even in this terrible case of kidney trouble,
attended with the worst form of erysipelas.
You replied that it was very advisable to
try the Compound and kindly sent us four
bottles tree of charge.
"God bless you for the good advise and
the gift. He used the four bottles and no
more, and to -day Aleck is as well as ever
before, a marvel to his physicians and the
whole staff of St. Joseph's hospital, and a
large circle of friends in this city."
The above testimony of Mr and Mrs Jas.
McIntosh, is vouched for by Geo. LeRiche,
Esq., and David Morton, Esq., es follows:
"The testimonial letter from Mr and Mrs
James McIntosh, in reference to the cure
of their son Aleck by Paine's Celery Com-
pound, has been submitted, to us as neigh-
bors and friends. Having visited this
home many times during Alock's ilness, we
do most willingly testify to the truthfulness
of ail statements made."
HERE, THERE AND EVERY
WHERE.
A benevolent gentleman in Paris
gave a franc to a street beggar Who
held a babe in her arms. He chucked
the youogstee ander the chin and in
amazement cried: "Why yout child is
only a pasteboard figure!" "Yes,
rnousienr,' she replied, 'the night be-
ing cold I left the real baby at, home."
The Chinese bride, like the English
one, is richly dressed. upon her wed-
ding day. "Lily -Shoot," ns she is call-
ed, litliaids her hair with a red silken
cord, and wears a little sprig of eves-

lemnly fot•th to pray before the tablets
erected to the memory of tlie bride-
groom's ancestors.
The Samoan Islands are the nal oral
habitat of the most diminutive species
of variety of the genus hos now known
to the naturalist. The aveeaf,e weight.
of the males of these lilipui.ian eat tle
seldom exceed 2011 pounds, the average
being not greater than 150 pounds.
The females usually average about 1(10
pounds larger, are very "stocky" built,
seldom being taller than a merino
sheep. These dwarf cattle are nearly
all of the same color—reddish mouse
color marked with white. They have
veru large heads as compared with
their bodies and their horns are of
exceptional length.

THE CAMEL IN AUSTRALIA.
It will come as a surprise to many
insular readers to learn that there are
at presen t no fewer than 10,00() camels
at work in Australia. "On the older
goldfields of Western Australia," so
the British Australasian tells us, "the
camel caravan has already knocked
out the bullock team by reason both of
economy and efficiency." More than
that, tracts of good land, hitherto ren-
dered inaccessible by intervening belt.,
of desert are now being opened up by
enterprising pastoralists. The priva-
tions and loss of life connected with
Australian exploration are now re-
dnced"to a minimum by the importa-
tion of the ship of the desert.
GENERALLY PRESCRIBED.

CURED PROVEN TO 135 A FALLACY.
QrEnEC, Nov. 5— Local physicians are
much gratified over the letter of Dr A, G.
McCormick, of Richmond, this province,
testifying to his core of Bright's disease,
by the use of Dodrl's Kidney Pills. Since
the introduction of the remedy in this city,
many physicians have nct hesitated to pre-
scribe the pills, and numerous ctires have
been the result. The latest testimony.
corning from so well known a medicine man,
proves that the local men were right in
nhanging the old-time remedies for Dodd's
Kidney Pills. Hence their jubilation.

A Christmas Book.
HE publishers of
Toronto Saturday
Night may well
offer to place their
Christmas N u m-
ber of this year
alongside any-
- thing produced
anvwhore. T he
„4... book itself is ex-
tromoly hand-
some. Tho cover
is designed by Mr. John D. Kelly, of Toronto,
ane is one of the most brilliant attractive
;things in the•way-of a -cover ever done in the
Dominion. Three pictures, instead of one, are
given away with the Number this year, and
"Charmed by the Song Bird" has only to be
seen to bo admired. The subject is a group of
children listening to the birds. It was painted
by G. A. Reid (whose famous pictures, "Mort-
gaging the Homestead" and "Foreclosing the
Mortgage," our readers will remember having
seen At the Toronto Fair) and is reproduced in
the cheerful colors df real life by the newly
discovered process called photo -lithography.
Itis a great pigture. No. 2 Supplement, "Play-
mates," is a French pastel and a marvel of
dainty coloring. No. 3 tiliblack and white, called
" A Difficult Trick," is the first popular repro-
duction of an old-fashioned steel engraving by
T. Webster. On the expiry of the copyright
Tho Sheppard Publishing Co. (Ltd.) at once had
a plate made, of which they are proprietors,
and what formerly could not bo bought for less
than ten dollars they now give with thcChrist-
mas Number free. As a study in faces it can-
not he equalled. The three pictures have been
admired by all who have seen them. The lead-
ing story in the Christmas Number is by Hobert
Barr, recently associated with Jerome K.
Jerome in publishing the London Idler, but
better known as Luke Sharp, whose writings
made the Detroit Free Press famous. His
story, One I)uy's Courtship, occupies fifteen
pages. The scene is laid in Canada, and the
illustrations are capital. Other stories are :
The Shady of Helen, by Francis Morison ; Lo
Loup Garou, by Clifford Smith ; W h'y Johnnie
Went Back, by Edmund E. Sheppard ; The
Passing of Boggs the Club Man, by Margaret
Harvey, and An Heroic Imbecile, by Joe Clark -
There are beautifully illustrated poems by J.
W. Bengough and Reuben Butchart, Keppel!
Strange and James A. Tucker. There are local
canvassers out (If not, someone should take hold
of it) and our readers should see the book. Ii

An old lady named Alexander made
a desperate attempt to commit suicide
recently. She had been staying for
sometime at the re-idenceof Mr James
Hays, 6th con., McKillop. On Wed-
nesday night, havin retired as usual,
unknown to any of the members of the
family, she got up and left the house.
In the snot ning, as soon as she was
missed, a vigorous search was institut-
ed for her, but was fruitless until Fri-
day forenoon, when they found her in
Mr McMichael's woods, some consider-
able distance from Mr Hays' place.
She was lying under the shelter of the
roots of an upturned tree, and her face
and person were partly covered by
leaves. It was thought at first that
she was dead; a closer inspection, how-
ever, revealed the fact that she was
still living, and it was also found that
there was a cut clear across her throat,
from which blood was freely oozing.
She was taken up and conveyed to Mr
Hays' residence, and medical aid pro-
cured. It was learned that the wound
in the neck was not deep enough to
prove fatal, and that she was suffering
mainly from exposure and loss of blood.
