unteer infantry, says: 81 was bothered
with my kidneys ever since the war,
and at times the pains in my limbs
and back were so acute that I could
hardly walk. Rest at night was out of
the question during an attack, and
there was a terribly distressing and an

kidney secretions. I tried every remedy

ANOTHER LIFE SAVED BY PROF.
ROBINSON'S WONDERFUL
GERMICIDE,
The q. c. c., or Golden
Chemical Compound,
THE ONLY PREVENTATIVE AND
SPECIFIC FOR DIPHTHERIA.

Bessie Irwin of No 1546 Kansas avenue
narrowly escaped death from diphtherta
about two weeks ago. Her marvellous re-
covery was wrought by the use Of Prof
Hope was given up by her parents and
friends and for time it was thought
she would not recover, but today she is
as well as ever and is at her work in the
dressmalzing department at Crosby Bros.
store.
Mrs. Irwin is enthusiastic in her praise
of the remedy. Bessie would not have
lived if it had not been for Prof. Robin
sons conpaund,' she said The disease
got two days start of us before we real
lied that she was suffering from diph-
iberia. We did not have a doctor because
we did not want to have the house quar-
antined and a guard placed outside. Bes-
sic consented to try Prof. Robinson's
chemical compound, and that, with some
of Prof Robinson's other remedies, We're
the only medicines we administered We
almost gave up hope one night, but we
worked harder than ever, and it proved to
be the turning point. She got steadily
better and she has now been well for
week I know nothing would have saved
her but the compound of Mr.. Robinson's."
Mrs. Irwin will gladly answer all ques-
lions for those who are interested in the
preservation and the lives of their own
families.

IN STATE OF COLLAPSE.
Banker Beckwith Is Frustrated by His
Troubles.

Oberlin, O., Dec. 6.-President c.. Il.
Beckwith was practically in a state of
collapse today as a result of the trying
ordeal through which he passed yes
terday in connection with his hearing
before the United States commissioner
at Cleveland. Beckwith is completely
Frustrated and his grief is pitiful. In
discussing his troubles the voice of the
aged banker is choked with emotion.
Today in speaking of the Carnegie
notes, he vehemently declared that if
the signatures were forgeries then the
hand of the law should be laid upon
Mrs. Chadwick.
tfWhy should stand the brunt of all
this trouble which has been directly
brought about by the acts of that wo-
man?'' he cried.
Continuing, Mr.. Beckwith said:
''I had every reason to believe that
the notes were genuine. Indeed Mrs.
Chadwick swore they were. She SOL
EMMY declared that she had seen Mr..
Carnegie write his signature on them.
To confirm this she brought an attor-
ney with her who declared that he was
the legal representative of Mr.. Carne-
gle, and this attorney, whose name I
cannot now state, declared that he
knew positively that the signatures
were genuine.
SIT is true that we-Mr. Spear and
myself-did indorse the notes, but of
course we had no idea that they were
to be put to the use that they were
afterward.
"Then again we had the positive as
surance of Iri Reynolds, secretary of
the Wade Park Banking company at
Cleveland, that he had the securities
that Mrs. Chadwick claimed he had.
ooh, my GOdi" exclaimed the old
man, eff I could only nave zs life TO
live again fer the past two years that
I -zsfEfat save my name from this great
dishonor that has befallen me-"
