A Mother Tells How She Saved Her Little
DauQhters Life

/ am the mother Of eight children
and have had a great deal of expert
cnce with medicines. Last summer my
little daughter had the dysentery in it's
worst form. We thought she would
die. I tried everything I could think
of, but nothing seemed to do her any
good. | saw by an advertisement in
our paper that Chamberlain's Collie
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
highly recommended and sent and got
4 bottle at once. 1t proved to be one
Of the very best medicines we ever had
in the house. Il saved my little daugh-
tcr's life. | am anxious for every
mother to know what an excellent
medicine it is. Had | known it at first
il would have saved me great deal Of
anxiety and my little daughter much
suffering. Yours truly, Mrs Geo, F.

Action of the Pardon Board.

Action of the Pardon Board.
Thomas Brennan. now awaiting the day
named by Governor Stone for his execution
fol the murder Of Harry Elliott at New
Philadelphia last June, was visited In prison
yesterday by his counsel, Messrs. James
Flanagan and George Dyson, and Informed
the Pardon Board had refused 70 commute
the death sentence to life imprisonment It
was an unpleasant task for the attorneys,
who have worked 50 zealously in Brennan's
behalf, but they we're somewhat surprised to
discover that the condemned man was the
most composed of the three when the infor-
nation was impaired to him He had little
TO say, beyond that he expected no clemency
at the hands of the Board Of Pardons Bren-
nan has evidently neryed himself for the
worst, and his demeanor and compose is a
surprise TO all. He is ever courteous, has
few wants and is not the slightest trouble to
the prison officials.
Immediately after Messrs. Flanagan and
Dyson had left Brennan, the latter's aged
mother visited the prison, and was at once
shown in his cell. The meeting Of the two
was most eheoting, the mothers grief being
incOnsolable. Brennan nerved himself for
the ordeal and made brave effort to console
his grief stricken mother. but she would not
be comforted, aud wept as though her heart
would break. Brennan, too, was moved to
tears, but bore his trying position we'll What
passed between mother and son, the outside
world need not know. Suffice it say any
mother can imagine if she could but place
herself in a similar position.
Governor Stone has named January 18th as
the date for Brennan's execution. Whether
this date will be changed is as yet not fully
determined, although it is probable an exten-
sion of time may be asked in order to permit
the prisoner to prepare for the end
