A Canadian Woman Recovering From an
Attack of Lochiaw.
OTTAWA, July 26-1t is generally acknowl-
edged theory that ''tetanus," usually known as
'1ockja~." is fatal to those attacked. A recent
case at Portsmouth proves that there is an ex-
ception to every rule. About six weeks ago
Mrs. Doyle wife of Mr.. James Doyle, guard
in the penitentiary, trod on nail, which made
q wound In her foot. She dressed the wound,
and shortly it was apparently we'll. Ten days
afterward she was attacked by aches and palms.
and had to take to her bed. At first her jaws
began to stiffen, and then each muscle in the
body one by Une. became rigid and useless, the
teeth clenching firmly. She lay on her back
for many days, paralyzed in body. but sound In
mind. Her hands, with fingers clenched were
drawn up over her shoulder, and every other
limb was perfectly rigid.
During the many days and nights, while she
lay facing what all thought certain death, she
was fed by means of clay pipe, the stem of
which was inserted through vacancy caused
by a lost tooth. Gradually she. sank until she
apparently appeared to be debilitated past all
hopes, but when at the lowest ebb her jaws
slowly relaxed, and then one by one her limbs
and muscles resumed their normal functions,
She became enabled to take proper nourish-
ment, and now is on the road to recovery. She
was attended by Dr. Phelan, who says that the
case is a most unusual one.

DIVIDEND PAYING STOCK
For Careful InHeafnrs.

An incorporated manufacturing company
with a complete new works in operation
making a special line of goods without COM
petition has concluded to increase its cap
ital stock from SIS, 900 to S125, 900 in order
to double its products. The goods made are
sold on short time at a large profit and out
put of the works can be doubled with in
creased capital provided. The managers
are good business men, and their experience
iustifes the assertion that quarterly divi-
dends can be paid from the earnings of the
company equal to. if not greater, than any
Pittsburg corporation is now paying: The
$50, 900 of new stock may be subscribed for
in lots from five shares upward, but an
active man with capital to take the entire
block or greater portion of it, to whom
good position will be given, is preferred as
buyer. Full opportunities for an investi-
cation may be had at this Office.

over supposed wild man who has been roam

who have seen him as o large and muscular
looking man ana a stranger in the nelghbor-
hood. About o year ago man OF similar de-
scription appeared in the sape section and
wandered about for days before he was appre-
hended. He was taken into court and his ex-
animation there proved him to be of unsound
mind. He said in court that he was COM
manded by the spirits to take off his clothes
and their power over him was so great that he
could not resist.
He was sent TO jail for short time, and since
then nothing has been heard of him. His de-
scription answers to that OF the naked man
noted above. Word has been sent TO the con-
stables of Leacock and adjoining townships to
be on the lookout for him.
