A Man VINO Suffered Mental and Physical
Agony Eight Years ProclAims his Happi-
hess.
Mental agony is dreadful. but when that
and physical ailment combine il IS simply
terrible. Such was the condition Of Geo. w.
Frampton, OF Huntingdon, W, Va, for
eight years. BE was sufferer of necroses
that is, the leg bone at the ankle was in
famed and mortified, which caused run
ming sores. He says; pieces OF bone
the size Of silver three cent piece came
out Of the sores on my leg. The discharge
from the sores was almost continual, and l
was unable to w&lk. For eight years /
have been doctoring | had been under the
treatment of physician at Newport, KY,
for year; another at Burlington, Ohio, at
tended me for three years, and q doctor
here at Huntingdon worked with me fer
long time. None Of them did me any
good, and they all finally said my case was
hopeless. A few months ago | COM
meneed trying Peruna, aed now am well;
/ can walk as good as anybody, and
have perfset use Of my limbs.
Mr.. ALI Lusk, Wooster, Ohio, writes:
"Dr. Hartman, Columbus, o. have been
a great sufferer from that dreaded disease,
chronic catarrh Of the stomach. / have
thoroughly tried your MAYALIN, and 1t has
done me more good ten-fold than all the
doctors prescriptions, and l have used
legions Of tnem.'
Mr.. Edgar Harte, Smeltzer P. o., Elk

morning, sold off fraction during the mid
die of the day and was again strong, ad-
vancing in the afternoon, while the business
done was the largest reported for some
time, 337,3l9 shares. Of this amount,
Lackawanna, St. Paul and Northwestern
contributed over 60 per cent Of the Gay g
business. Complaint is made that deliveries
ofstocks are very slow, which happens only
when the short interest is very large; It's
again reported that there is considerable
probability of settlement between West
Shore and New York Central The settle
ment will have a decidedly stimulating
effect upon the market. Under the inhu-
ence of q bear raid during the middle of the

its loss in the afternoon, closing ] per cent.
