sand of Other Peoples Money.
Superintendent Preston OF the
State Banking Department, accord
ing to a late New York despatch,
says he has discovered that about
100000 OF the funds of the Bankers
Loan and Investment Company OF
40 Wall street have been misappro-
priated by its whilom secretary,
Galen II. Coon. He also discovered
that Coon, who was ousted as secre-
tary a year ago, was at one time con-
spring to have the officials who
were friendly to him placed in power
in the company to enable him to
virtually control its finances.
Preston's investigation, which led
up to this discovery, lasted nearly a
year.
The company, which is building
and loan association. made most Of
its investments in Roanoke, V. 1t
was at that place that Coon estab-
lished his office while secretary and
manipulated the company's affairs.
1t was noticed by Vice President
Charles Hillbouse that the COM
pany's funds were getting lower and
lower without adequate return be-
ing shown. He Immediately mott
fed Superintendent Preston and an
investigation was begun. To-day
on application OF Superintendent
Preston aud the Attorney. General
Mr.. Hillhouse and James NJ. Clifford
were appointed receivers OF the COM
pany.
The assets OF the Bankers Loan
and Investment Company amount
to 1927, 1853, while its liabilities are
S57S,57O.
Mr.. Hillhouse says that although
a new board OF directors was elected
last Tuesday, there has not been q
breath of suspicion cast upon the
old directors. "They are men oil
sterling integrity" he said, "and i,
was only their confidence in Coor
for which they are all taken to task
"There are, however, no doubt
several subordinates Of Coon in the
company, through whose comm
vance he was enabled to swindle tc
such au extent.
Under the reorganized manage
ment OF the company am confident
that we shall soon put it on its fee
again and have it in excellent run
ming and paying order"

predecessor, and gave out that
George had an attack of rheumatic
fever-in other words, acute rheum-
atism--a disease which no boy has
any business with whatever.
The treatment on this theory
availed nothing; George was worse.
He now had hacking cough, and
his expectoration was so offensive
that the people had to use disinfec-
tants. He broke out into sweats, so
heavy as to saturate the pillows.
He could take no nourishment save
a little milk and lime water. He
wore away to skeleton, did the
poor boy. He was nothing but skin
and bone, and they had to lift him
in and out OF bed. Then he fell so
i'll he would not notice any one in
the room, and lay for hours never
opening his eyes. Then came the
time when a third doctor said he
couldn't possibly live.
What happened after that the
boys mother tells. We give you
her exact words: an February last"
she says, "my husband, as a last re-.
source, determined to try Mother
Seigeps Curative Syrup. After a
few doses the boys breathing was
easier and he took food. In three
days he was able to sit up, and in a
weeks time he was up and dressed
He gained flesh and strength every
day, and is now able to go about.
Sometimes l look at him and can
hardly believe he is the same boy
who was so recently at deaths door.
Seigels Syrup saved his life. Yours
truly, (Signed) Mrs. Mary West
moreland, 5, High Street, Plum
stead, London, April u, 1892"
Now. half a dozen words, Little
George had no bowel Inflammation,
nor single touch of rheumatism.
That was the doctors professional
guesswork. He had a sharp attack
of biliousness and indigestion, of
which Mother Seigel would have
cured him long before had her
medicine been appealed to. Here is
the moral to conclude with: Learn
what the true remedy for illness is,
and use it first instead OF last.
