Her Health Was Ruined.
HER LIFE WAS One OF PAIN But
SHE Is Now WELL.

SHE Is NOW WELL.
Mrs. Alexander Vaughn, wife of the
most prominent and extensively known
merchant of Prescott, Ark, writes the
following letter under date of April %,
1889.
Il owe the preservation of my life UNI
der Providence to Swift's Specific. Is. $50
For four years my health was wretched,
ruined-lny life, a life of constant pain
and misery and torture. Food soured
on my stomach. and what | ate to-day
i would vomit tomorrow. My sleep
at night was broken with the most hor-
rible visions in dreams, SO much So that
could not bear to be left alone; chronic
diarrh9a, a painful cough that threaten
ed me with consumption; my feet and
ankles were twisted out of ali proportion,
and my limbs swelled more or less. l
could not walk except on level floor,
and then with difficulty, and for while
could not get in or out of bed without
assistance,
The pressure of finger on my body
would leave its impression, and in short
l thought | had dropsy, in addition to
my other Affections.
Two doctors treated me faithfully
during these four years, but did me no
good-the medicines they gave me were
as useless as stagnant water. My friends
thought | would die, suffering as | was
with such a combination of diseases.
In 1887 l discontinued the use of the
medicines | had been heretofore ia king,
and began to take Swift's Specific, (S.S.S.)
Five bottles of this wonderful medi-
cine was what worked the miracle of
my complete and permanent recovery

Lillian Lewis.

We are disposed to further with all our hearts
the already extravaganza newspaper favoritism
surrounding as halo the beautiful and talent
ed actress, Miss Lillian Lewis. BY the most reli-
able organs of the press, Miss Lewis has been
commented upon as the successor of Clara Nor
riS, the peer of Langtry, Americas greatest,
youngest and representative artistic and terms
of like prodigality. But after seeing the subject
OF these encOmiums before the foot-lights here
on last Thursday night, we no longer marvel at
the volcanic nature Of her reputation, and are
prepared to affirm that if ever an actress bore
the stamp of being permeated with dramatic
genius, it is Lillian Lewis, as were able to
judge her in her superb role of Lena Despard
The character itself is a very impassoned CON
ception and was prepared expressly for Miss
Lewis by the celebrated playwright, Mr.. Law
renee Marstone, with particular reference to her
browning characteristic-that of an emotional
actress of the highest type. But her right to it's
exclusive presentation has been since doubly
established from the fact that with her own
vivid personality she has electrified lifeless
creation into living, breathing reality, and yet
while dealing abundantly with the most violent
emotions, her chiefest charm lies in the fact that
she is able to tread with the incest distinction
that subtle line dividing the melodramatic from
the natural which is sure a test of the higher
ing with her audience is that he actually seems
the engaging, magnetic, brilliant woman which
she SO passionately portrays. By turns tender
turbulent, yielding and imperiously defiant her
command of facial expression is something
marvellous. The delirium and death scene of
the heart-brOken, tortured and repudiated wife
are depicted in a manner that beggars descrip-
ton. Moreover to her many attractions as an
artistic, Miss Lewis adds rare beauty of face and
form and an inimitable grace of movement
Her costumes are revelations in themselves,
rich, costly and becoming. Doubtless her own
acting receives cogent stimulus from the
uniform cleverness of her support of which we
can imagine nothing finer than Mr.. W. S. St.
Clair's artistic exposition of the thoroughly cor
rupt and insinuating, yet attractive william,
Captain Jack Fortinhras.
The first successful blood purifier ever
offered to the public was Ayers Sarsa-
parilla. Imitators have had their day,
but soon abandoned the field, while the
demand for this incompatible medicine
increases year by year, and was never SO
great as at present:

Distressing Accident.

Saturday last, little Robert Blackley,
the 10 year old child of James H. Black
ley, Esq, went out to Gaymont, the sub
urban residence of Mrs Charlrs Gay, to
gather chestnuts. Young Blackley
climbed to the top of the tree, and was
breaking off limbs to throw down to the
boys on the ground to pick out the chest
nuts. While so engaged, he in some
way lost his footing and fell to the
ground. When he fell, his young conf
panions thought he was dead, and ran
off to town for help. Meeting Mrs. Gays
buggy on the road, they drove to Mr..
Blackley's store and took him at once to
the scene of the accident. In the mean
time young Blackley was taken to Mrs.
Gays residence, where he was made as
comfortable as possible until the physi-'
ciang. Drs. Patterson, Gibson, and At
kinson, who had been summoned, ar
rived. The little fellow was unconscious
all day Saturday, and it was almost i'm
possible for the physicians to ascertain
the extent of his injuries. All was done
that medical skill could suggest Mrs.
Blacllley went quickly to the bedside OF
her suffering boy as soon as she was IN
formed of his injuries. Saturday night
was one of anxious watching to the
friends around the bedside of the little
sufferer. The entire community was
deeply moved with sympathy for the
grieved friends and with anxious concern
for the injured little one. Little did the
boys think as they went out to the
woods that beautiful, bright, crisp
morning for recreation and amusement.
that before the meridian sun had
reached the zenith of its course, one OF
their number would be lying on a bed
of pain and suffering, and what was
thought to be a dying bed. Great was
the JOY of the boys, when in the calm
stiffness of the Sabbath morn the news
was brought in that the sufferer had re-
turned to consciousness and his cOndi-
ton improved 1t was great relief to
the community too, already deeply en-
listed in the case of the little boy.
Later in the day, the little fellow was
brought in to his fathers residence on
stretcher. His injuries had been ascer-
tanned not to be SO serious as at first APP
pretended, the arm being the only bone
broken. If there are no internal inju-
ries of serious nature, the little fellow
may soon be up again, which we sin
cerely hope may be the case.
