hlcted with the distressing troubles,
which prevented the prosecution of his
duties. He was languid, and yet restless,
Whlle at times dizziness would come

His will! power was strong, and he de-

symptoms were stronger than his Will,
and he kept growing gradually worse.
About that time he began to notice q diff.
iculty in drawing on his boots, and it. was
by the greatest effort that he was able to
force his feet into them. In this manner
several weeks passed by, until finally one
night. while in great agony, he discov.
cred that his feet had, in a short while.
swollen to enormous proportions. The
balance Of the narrative can best be des-
cribed in his own words. He said:

that I was 30 bloated, she sent for the
doctor immediately. He made a most
careful examination and pronounced
me in q very serious condition. Not
withdrawing his care, grew worse and

tended upward in my body. The top of
my head panied me terribly; indeed, so
badly that at times it seemed almost as
IT it would burst. NY feet were pain
fully cold, and even when SURF. unded
with hot fannels and irons felt as if a
strong wind were blowing on them.
Next my right lex became paralyzed.
This gave me no pain, but it was exceed.

careful and untiring in their attentions,
but unable to relieve my eufferings: Ny

times as much as three feet, cry out in
my agony and long for death. One night
the misery was so intense that arose and

Several years ago Rev. DR.. J. E. Ran

here as pastor of the CONGREGATIONAL
church. We all admired and respected
him, and my wife remembered seeing

Mr.. John W. Hobart, General Manager

that Jacques was one ofthe best and most

the company were not only glad to have
