UNION MACIlINlSI HAS NOT MOVED FROM BED
FOR SIX YEARS; HE'S MAGAZINE AGENT NOW

"a
Joseph, Pringle, "a member Of the
Machinists' union, has. been confined
to his bed for, more, than six years.
He has. been "a cripple for nearly Is
years. Mr.. Pringle, has probably made
the most courageous = fight :; against
sickness that was ever made. by an
unfortunate man in Duluth. He is
married and has one daughters Dur
ing his long illness the family has
made no appeal either for acharity or
financial assistance, but they have
gone along and faced a condition that
would appal and. hreak down people
with less charactei+ and moral
stamina, with a courageousness that
is surprising.
: Mr.. Pringle's story is a. heart
rending one: He was a ,machinist,
working in Duluth for years, being
employed by the Clyde Iron Works,
the Northwestern Boiler. Works and
other places, until sickness overlook
him. Twelve years ago he became af-
fected with articul1r rheumatism and
only Al years old now. Eight years
ago he had to take to his bed and
has been there ever since. Six years
ago the affliction reached the worst
possible stage, short of death, and,
perhaps worse than that, for in six
years Mr.. Pringle has not been able
to move. :.
For six years he has been in bed
utterly AND completely helpless, so
much so in fact, that he cannot even
be raised in bed. A harness has been
installed for moving him when the
bed clothes are changed, that being
the only way he can be shifted from
the position in which he lives out the
monotony, day in and day out.
Under the sheets is a doeskin to
prevent bed sores, and the mans
back, because of his long prostration,
is perfectly flat.
SO complete is his rigidity that his
jaws are set and helpless. Despite
this he can talk, and also, after a.
fashion, whistle and sing. Oddly
enough he is cheerful enough to do
both. for he never complains, and de-
clares that by and by the afflictiol !
will pass and he will be about again,
MI. Pringle is one of the finest ex-
amples of optimism and cheerfulness
That those who visit him can r1nd.
Ihey declare that instead Of a. visit to
him being depressing, it is uplifting
and heartening, so he is doing work
IN the world despite his condition.
>Homely but adequate means. are
provided to furnish him with what
enjoyment he can obtain. An tngen1-
Gus arrangement for reading is made.
through which he can read a. maya
zine or book, but must have some
body turn the leaves for him. And

There had come a scrambling sound.
Then some loose fragments Of rock
had fallen near to her and then-a
human form shot past her, it's feet
struck the ground and the figure fell
PROSTATE.
With distended and yet with glad
some eyes the imperled girl recog-
nized the young man who had so at
tracted her. A. Bernard had, indeed,
returned hOmeward by the cliff route.
He had seen her. He recognized her
danger. He had ventured a reckless
descent. For a moment he lay half
stunned. Then his clear, earnest
eyes were bright as ever, as he arose
and lifted his cap courteously.

calmly as though they were safe and
sheltered on the porch of the hotel
81 have come to help you"
81 am so glad" she murmured, al
most forgetting fright in his welcome
company.
He placed hand upon her arm
and led her back from the advancing
waves. Then he unslung a small
pouch he wore at the belt. She
watched him with interest as he dis
closed a kit of utilities coming into
occasional requirement with the pro-
fessional stroller
A. Bernard selected a broad sharp
knife. He began to attack the face
of the cliff hand-high. He cut Jag
ged notch in the chaIky surface, an
other, lifted himself up with one
hand, got a footing, and thus prog
ressed until he had reached a short
shelf receding two feet or more into
a natural rock cavity.
She forgot all her timidity as his
strong hand directed her to cling to
him when he again assembled and es-
sayed to reach the only place of ref
uge above the fatal tide mark. Then

All lu6 IllllS he kept up d IOdSSuI-
ing conversation. They had become
like close friends. AS the tide went
out they descended and returned to
the hotel What a delightful love
dream both drifted into in the sue
ceeding days! One beautiful after
noon, seated on the cliff and watch
ing the steamers go by, she had him
a confession. -

said. 81 am not Miss Davenal My

She wondered at the sudden blank
ness that came into the face of her
companion. He had become almost
pale. He had arisen to his feet. He
suggested man numbed by some
vivid shock. 500
In establishment she followed him
with her glance as he walked to a..
distance. He acted like a man CONF
muning with himself. She saw him,
take card from his pocket. He wrote
upon it. He lifted his cap. Sadly, it
seemed, he waved to her, and then to
the card, which he placed on a rockJc
He walked away with dropping head
and detected mien. She was puzzled,
alarmed - for she loved him! She
went to the card and read upon it the
words: efz

Dorothy to become bewildered. The
