The St Paul correspondent for the New
Era recently had an item regarding the case
Of Mabel Stevens, who had Just recovered
from a serious illness of rheumatism and
nervous trouble. and was able to be out for
the first time in three months. The letter
stated that IL was a very bad case and her
recovery was such surprise to the neigh
bors that it created considerable gossip.
Being anxious to learn the absolute facts
in the case, a special reporter was sent to
have a talk with the girl and her parents.
They were not at home, however, being some
distance away. A message was sent to Mr..
Stevens, asking him to write up full his
tory of the case and few days ago the fol.
lowing letter was received from Mrs.
Stevens;

DEAR SIRS' Your kind letter received
and | am glad TO have the opportunity TO
tell you about the sickness and recovery of
Mabel. We don't want any newspaper
notoriety, but in case like this where few
words OF what | have TO say may mean re-
coyery for some child, ! feel it my duty to
tell you of her case.

complaining of pains in her limbs. princl-

school, and had to walk about three quar-
tiers of a mile each day, going through all
kinds of weather. She was thirteen years

dislked to take her from school, but we had
10 do it.
"For several months she was confined to
| the house, and she grew pale and dwindled
down to almost nothing. Her legs and arms
were drawn up and her appearance was
pitiful. Several doctors had attended her,
but it seemed that none OF them did her
any good. They advised us to take her to
the springs. but times were SO hard we could
not afford it, although we finally managed
to get her to the Martinsville baths. Here
she grew suddenly weaker, and it seemed
that she could not stand it, but she became
better, and it seemed that she was being
benefited, but she suddenly grew worse, and
we had to bring her home.
'She fingered along, and last winter be
came worse again, and was afflicted with a
nervous trouble almost like the st, Nitus
dance. For some time we thought she would
die, and the physicians gave her up. Wher
