When the doctor came to his onice showed him the hand and to my sur prise he told me that he had never ex, perienoed such 2 case in his practice ana es, trying his different remedies the disease increased and went up n1y arms and finally to my thighs and legs generally and finally on my face. The burning was something terrible. After had tried this doctor, as l thought, long enough, went to another doctor who had the reputation of being the best m eczema and that 1t would take quite while to cure it. His medicine checked the advance of the disease but no fur- ther.

 The perishing man was quickly hurried from the building to the fresh air. A physician was summoned and after us- ing every restorative at hand the body was placed in an automobile and hurried ly driven around the city, so as to get ad- vantage of the breeze. This was partially effective and when the would-be suicide was removed to his home he was resting fairly well.
 MT. Stewart is considered an excellent man in his position, and few men in the city have more friends. His rash at tempt upon his own life came as severe shock and everything possible will be done to get him again in his proper state of mind.
