GLAD TO TESTIFY
Prof. SamueIS Still Getting StrOng
and Willing Endorsements,
r1r, II. L. BeveEl, Superintendent OF
the Western Union Telegraph 2
Office Speaks.

There are a very few people IN TOPEKA
especially among the business men, WIZ
are not acquainted with Mr. ID. L. beVeA'
who has charge of the local office OF Ihe
Western Union Telegraph company al
though young man Mr. Bevell has hao
a great deal of trouble with his eyes. Ii
talking to reporter about the
matter he said:
"My eyes have heen bothering me
more or less for some time, but during
the last fourteen months'they have been
SO bad that 1 had become almost dssr
perate. Not only was the pain intense,
but l was almost entirely incapacitated
for business. l could hardly see to keep
track of my business; moreover, of the
fourteen persons employed in this Office
it often happened that l could hardly
distinguish one from The other.
'tAnd then more recently there Wa
another symptom developed that gave
me much trouble as well as anxiety. 1t
was that of nervous chills. They came
on almost every evening after arriving
home in Highland Park from days
work. l would shake for an hour or two
and then followed a fever which gener-
ally lasted till or o'clock in the even
ing, after which l would eat light sup
per and retire. 1t was not the old fash
toned ague, but seemed to come from a
diseased condition of the nerves.
"The doctors called the disease granu-
lation OF the eye Tide, and it was brought
on by continuous night work. DurE4S
seven months l worked in the Santa Es
telegraph office twelve hours every night
including Sunday, aud when quit, this
is the condition 1 found myself in.
1.-TWO years ago began treating with
a Topeka oculist and continued with
him for nineteen months, ending up with
my eyes in worse condition than when
/ began. He performed one operation.

caused me such pain That positifely
refused to permit il again, especially as
it did no good. FSyte
81 then saw another eye doctor who,
said it came from impure blood, and
that he would cure them as soon as he
could regulate my blood So l siaid
with him four months and quit Disguised
Some of the medicines he gave seemed
to give relief, but it would last only a
day or two. Then he would change aud
try something else
"Some of my friends advised me ~
try Prof. Samuels, aud l finally con-
cluded to act on the advice So four
weeks ago l called on him and began his
treatment, During the first five days l
was actually astonished at the great i'm
provement made. got more relief dur
ing that short time than in all the prevI-
Gus treatment ! had taken. The i'm
provement still continues, so that now
my eyes are as free from pain and the
sight is perfectly restored. The indama-
ton in the lids is not quite all gone, but
is rapidly disappearing and the granules
seem to have subsidized. find it neces-
sary to wear the glasses only once in a
while, but am still using the eye prepar-
alton constantly. tell you would not
take sou for that small vial of medicine
if knew could get no other like il.
"The nervous chills stopped at once af-
ter began with Prof Samuels; | hay9
gained considerably in color and flesh;
my appetite is better than for u long
time and in spirits and activity feel like
a new man."
Mr.. BevelPs looks and actions showed
that he meant every word he said. He
was perfectly willing to have his state
ments put in print that others might BE-
benefited. Prof. Samuels' Office is. at 6U6
