Saved Her Sight
Another Wonder Performed by
Hoods SarsaparlIla.

My little girl Hazel is now four years
old. Two years ago she had the grip. After
recovery her eyes grew inflamed and sup
turated. For over z months she had to
have her eyes bandaged and stay in a dark
room. The family doctor and an ocuIist
did everything possible. She did not inn
prove and even grew worse. At last after
Elk months he gave US the discouraging
opinion that the cornea of one eye was de-
stroyed
And Sight Entirely Cone.
That it was doubtful il she would ever be
able to see any with the other, as the sight
was rapidly being destroyed in that also.

The investigation O.: certain attempts made
TO defeat the bill of the National Gas, Elec-
tric Light, Heat and Power Company of the
District of Columbia was continued yester-
day afternoon before n subcommittee of the
Senate District Committee, Senator HuEton
chairman.
Mr.. I. p. d. Sands. attorney for the COM
pany. and Capt. George Is. Cowlam, the In
ventor of the cheap gas process TO be used by
the company. attended the session. Senator
Hunton handed Mr.. Sands two letters which
the latter denounced las an evident conspir-
acy on the part of those who could not other
wise defeat the bill OF the company he repre-
sented, and as ''an attempt at underhand
and secret assassination.
'Inasmuch. he said. 'as these letters have
been put IN circulation | demand the fullest
opportunity 10 explain the matter
He showed the high character OF all inter-
ested IN the enterprise. and called special at
tention 20 the tenth clause OF the bill. which
specifically prevents a sale OF this company
TO another corporation under penalty of for
ieiture of charter. Mr. Sands argued that
under the circumstances it was the proper
thing that the committee should furnish him
copies of the letters and should publish the
names Of their writers. Both of these re-
quests, Mr.. Sands said, were refused by the
committee.
Mr. Sands then informed the committee
that If it we're possible to punish the authors
of the scheme he would certainly have it
done.
Mr. Cowlam said that he had seen the let
tiers but knew nothing whatever of the
writers.
Mr.. Sands finally appealed to the commit
tee, that as the letters so injurious to his COM
pany had been shown around 10 the Senators.
to undo the wrong that had been DONE Mr.
Sands said that a statement from Senator
TO the effect that any attempt was made, by
any one authorized TO speak for the COM
pany, TO dispose Of it in any way to another
company. was most extraordinary pro-
ceeding, in view OF the fact that the bill was
now before subcommittee for investigation
