TRAGIC EVENT.
4 Fathers Desp-ir and Self-In-
fcced Death-His Sons Final
RESCUE. Too Late to Save
His Parent.
| described below is one OF the nlost
| remarkable episodes in the domestic
history of America. 1t is absolute
truth which car readily be verified.
The inhabitants of the pleasant
town of Cortland, n. Y, were
! shocked one morning by the an
| nOuncement that Mr.. Cliuton
| Rindge, one of their most prominent
citizens, had committed suicide. The
| news spread rapidly and aroused the
entire neighbOrho0d where Mr..
Rindge was 50 we'll and favorably
known. At first it seemed impossible
that any one so quiet and domestic
could do SO rash a deed, and the i'll
curry was heard on every side rs to
the cause. The facts a. developed Oh
investigation proved to Re as follows:
Mr.. Rindge vas domestic in his
tastes and took the greatest enjoy
ment in the society OF his children
and pride in their development. And
indeed he had good reason to be proud
for they gave promise of long lives OF
success and usefulness. But an evil
day came. His youngest son, Will
liam. began to show signs Of an early
decay. He felt unusually tired each
day, and would sometimes sleep the
entire afternoon If permitted to DO so.
His head panied him, not acutely,
but with a dull, heavy feeling. There
was a sinking sensation at the pit Of
his stomach. He lost ali relish for
food and much of his interest for
things about him. He tried man.
fully to overcome these feelings, but
they seemed stronger than his will.
He began to lose flesh rapidly. The
father became alarmed and consulted
physicians as to the cause of his sons
illness, but they were unable to ex-
plain. Finally severe sores broke
out Oh his arms and he was taken to
Buffalo, whera a painful operation
was performed, resulting in the loss
of much blood but affording little re-
Lief. The young man returned home
and a council of physicians was
called. After al exhaustive examine
alton they declared there was no hope
of final recovery and that he must
die within a very few days. 10 de-
scribe the agony which this II
nouncement caused the father would
be impossible. His mind failed to
grasp its full meaning at first; then
finally seemed to comprehend it, but
the load was too great. In all agony
of frenzy he seized q knife aud took
his own life, preferring death rather
than to survive his ido)iZed 0 II At
that time William Rindge vas too
weak to know what was transiir;ng.
His face had turned black, his breath
ceased entirely at times, and his
friends waited for his death believing
that the fiend Bright's disease of the
kidneys, from which he was suffer
ing, could not be removed. In this
supreme moment Williams sister
came forward and declared she would
make 4 final attempt to saw her
brother. The doctors interposed, as
surfing her it vas useless and that she
would only hasten the end by the
means she proposed to employ. But
she was firm, and, putting all back,
approached her brothers. side and
administered a remedy whiuh she
fortunately had Oh hand. Within
an hour he seemed more easy, and
before the day was owe he showed
signs OF decided improvement. These
favOIable signs continued, and to day
William B. Rindge is well, having
been virtually raised from the dead
through the marvellous power ct
Warmers Safe Cure, AS can be readily
verified by any citizen of Cortland.
Any one who reflects upon the
facts above described must have a
feeling OF sadness. The father, dead
by his own hand, surprising bis sons
recovery to he impossible; the son |
restored to health to mourn the loss !
Of his father, and the %agonized rela-
tives with a memory of sadness to
forever darken their lives. Had
Clint n Rindge known that his |
could recover, he would to-day be
alive and happy, but the facts which
turned his brain and caused him to !
commit suicide were such as any II !
would accept a. true.
However sad this case may be, the ;
truth remains that thousands OF peo-
pie are at this moment in as great
actual peril as William Rindge, and
in az great danger Of causing misery |
if not death to their friends. Liver
and kidney discs SEES are t.cs'lna t:it
most common and most .iangerU = CT
any or all modern con, ,lain;s. They
are tile most deceptive III their be-
ginnings and horrible in their ti;Al
stages. They are far llOie deceptive
than Consumption. and can rarely
be detected ever by shiI!'ul physi.
clans unless a microhc. pic anai> sis
he resorted to, and few dOctorS under F,
stand how to do this. Their slightest
approach, or possibility ri approach,
should strike terror to the one who is
threatened as we'll as to AL his OF her
friends. These diseases have no dis
tinct symptoms, but come in the
form Of lassitude, loss of appetite. !
aching muscles and Joints, dull head, ;
aches. pains in the back, stomach and
chest, sour stomach, recurring signs
of cold, irregular pulsatiOns of the /
heart, and frequent dizziness. If
neglected, the symptoms are certain
to run into chronic kidney and liver
or BrigUt's disease. from which there
is sure to be q great amount Ut agony ,
and only one means of escape, which
is 10y the use of Warmers Safe Cure.
The imp ,rtauce Of taking this great
remedy upon the slightest appear /
ance OF any Of the above symptoms
cannot be too strongly impressed
upon the minds of ali readers who
desire to escape death and pain and
prolong life with all its pleasures and ]
blessings.
