ffi wyfwTm Fm ,,-C f -"" THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, ' SATURDAY, JANUARY 4, 1890, 10 queathed him, and once his affairs were ar ranged he meant to return to his travels and wandering life. She did not look, or attempt any caressing words to her newly recovered father as she answered in a low trembling voice, "I am not thought like her." She did not even call him by the familiar name of father; if Mr. Egerton was cold, his daughter was equally so. Another silence ensued, but this time it was broken by the abrupt entrance of a servant ''What is it?" inquired Mr. Eger ton, turning with an air of relief to the man. "Please, sir, I can't open one of the boxes; none ot the keys will fit it," answered the valet. ''I must go, Madeline, nd see about the unpacking," said the traveler, anxious to see how his treasures had borne the long journey. "I shall not unpack everything to-day, but if I should come to anything particularly interesting I will call you." The girl murmured "Thank you" in her low voice, and Mr. Egerton left the room. As the door closed between them she pressed both hands to her heart in a wild manner to still some pain. "I cannot do it," she cried, her voice half suffocated by her emotion. "It is a cruel wrong oh, what will become of me! Where have they taken her?" Flinging herself on her knees beside the sofa, she burst into passionate tears. CHAPTER IIL Mr. Grenfel! Egerton looked in surprise at the box that had resisted the servant's efforts to open it. "I don't remember this one," he said, passing his hand across his forehead. "I can't think what's in it; I do not remember packing it in the least; but we will soon find out. Just get a chisel and force the lock; don't break the keys over it." The servant obeyed; in a few seconds the lock gave way and he threw back the lid. The black shawl, hurriedly replaced by John Brown's shaking hands, concealed the contents as before. "Take that off," cried Mr. Egerton, impatiently; the servant raised it hastily, but at the unexpected sight thus revealed he uttered a cry of horror and turned to his master for an explanation. Cut as he saw Air. Egerton's lace his cry froze on his lips. Grentell Egerton stood over the box, his bronzed face livid and distorted, its deathly pallor rivaling that of the dead girl at bis feet so cruelly murdered in the dawn of womanhood. liais ing his clinched hands above his head he struggled lor speech. "Lucy! Lucy!" he groaned at last, utter ing his dead wite's name for the first time in all the long years since her death. Before lie had finished, with ber name still on his lips, he staggered and fell motionless across the box. The terrified servant rushed to the door to call assistance, but on the threshold he was met by Madaline. "Who called?" she asked breathlessly. "Don't go in, Miss," gasped the man hurriedly. "Master has fainted." But her eyes had clearly seen Mr. Eger ton lying face downward over the black box. She poshed past the trembling servant and bent over the prostrate figure. "Raise your master," she cried; "he is ill." Mechanically the servant advanced, and with difficulty removed the unconscious form and supported his master's head against his knee. "Look, miss," he said in a hoarse whis per; "that's what made him faint," and he glanced shuddering at the secret of the box. No need to say "look!" At the awful un expected horror thus revealed Madeline stood transfixed. With dilating eyes she took in all the beauty of the murdered girl before her the lovely child-like face with a sm.le still lingering on the pale lips, the rip pling, golden hair, the slender figure in its closely fitting habit; finally her stony gaze rested' on the hilt in the breast, with its crimson stain spreading round, telling its own tale of dark guilt a tragedy concealed from the world. "How came it here? Who was she?" The servant's. vo'ce roused Madeline from her silent horror. "Master won't come to, miss," he said anxiously. "What am I to do?" She looked vaguely at him for a second, then she spoke in a hard, strained voice: "Leave him and go for Dr. M at once. I will remain wjth your master. Say 'nothing of this i you value your place," she add ed, pointing with a firm hand toward the box. As the door closed the girl sank on her knees beside the dead, and gazed into the smiling face as though she hoped to read there a key to the terrible mystery. Then raising a tress of the long fair hair to her own pale lips she kissed it passionatelv. LiKe Mr. Egerton, she, too, uttered the name of a woman, but it was the name her father had addressed to ber on his arrival, not the same that had burst from his lips in such despair a tew seconds ago. "Made line," she whispered, as though the dead could hear her voice and understand its passionate remorse, "you shall be avenged! But for me you would have been alive and happy the crime is mine! How came you here to haunt me? They forced me to de ceive you, but I loved you. I will not rest till vour death has been avenged. Farewell, my loved one! my little Madeline!" Once more she kissed the fair hair solemnly, then rising quickly to her feet she left the room, without even a glance at Mr. Egerton, who lay still unconscious on the floor. Great events are olten crowded into a lit tle space. The startling discovery and its consequences had only occupied IS minutes. Two o'clock strnck as Madeline Egerton left the house, dressed in a dark walking dress and black fur cloak thrown hastily over her shoulders she had no luggage. With thick embroidered veil, she defied recognition ef fectually, and, walking to the corner, she hailed a cab and drove off through the crowded streets. CHAPER IV. It made a great impression on almost every circle of society. Nothing else was talked of or discussed throughout London. Tne reappearance of Grenfell Egerton, the celebrated traveler, whose discoveries and adventures had interested all Europe, under such painful snd extraordinary circum stances, caused the greatest excitement. He was now, three days after his arrival, in prison, on a charge of murder. The discovery of the body of a young and lovelv girl, cruelly murdered, in his own house, had led to his arrest, though he de nied all knowledge of the crime. The courts were crowded to hear the case, and the greatest interest prevailed. As the first witness was called, Miss Madeline Eg erton entered the witness box, closely veiled. A murmur of surprise ran through the spec tators. "His daughter 1" said a former friend of Mr. Egerton. "Never heard of her before. Where did she come from?" "Oh," said his companion, "I fancy when Egerton went cracked about his poor wife's death, he left the child in charge of a French governess, a tall, dark woman. She went on the stage ten years ago, and Bings under the name of Silvani. I believe she married the Polish Count who sang tenor at the opera years ago, and she brought up Eger ton's daughter with her own child." "An odd life for the poor girl," said the other pityingly; "but I suppose anyhow she will come into a heap of money some day." ''Hush! Hush" said several voices, as the witness drew back her veil and took the re quired oath. A murmur, this time of admiration, went round the court, as the girl stood calm and composed, her exceeding pallor enhancing the splendor of her large eyes, of a deep dark blue, fringed with black, drooping lashes. The two gossips again began to comment. "Be won't be able to hide her much longer," said the first speaker. "I never saw a more lovely face." "Dreadful thing for the poor girl alto gether," said his friend. "But listen; she is going to speak." "Are you Mr. Grenfell Egerton.. daugh ter?" inquired the Q. C, more ai a matter offormtbanon account of the importance of the query. Amidst a silence that might be felt, the jtirl'i voice, though low, aaya distinctly, "No, I m not," The Judge looked up incredulous at this unexpected and astonishing reply. All eyes were turned upon the traveler, who until now htjd remained seated, by permission of the Judge, being still utterly prostrated, mind and body, with the sudden shock, and seemed stnnned with despair and quite un able to grasp his painful situation. But now he started to his feet as this girl he had sup posed to be his only child publicly re nounced him. "Am I going mad?" he thought, pressing his hands wildly to his forehead. With a violent effort at self command, he forced himself to listen to the next question, clinging to the back of the chair lor support. "What is your name, then?" "Lina Kamberowski." "Were you in Mr. Egerton's house thfi dav of his arrival?" 1 was." "In what capacity?" "As companion to Madeline Egerton." Mr. Egerton leaned forward in fearful ex citement, which he with difficulty sup pressed. "Was Miss Egerton also in the honse?" For the first time the witness hesitated, and her face grew more deathly pale. "Yes," she said at last, as if the words were forced from her without her will. "Where was she at the time this box was opened?" For the space of a second there was si lence; the girl glanced fearfully at the black box which lay upon the table before the judge, empty now of its sad contents. Madeline Egerton was hidden from the world once more, this time forever, in the cold, dark earth. Lina Kamberowski struggled for compos ure, but in vain. "Where was she?" she reDeated: then, putting Doth hands to her eves, as though to push back some awful sight, "Madeline Egerton was lying inthat black box, murdered, stabbed to the heart" She uttered the last words in so terrible a voice that a shudder ran through the listen ers. -Mr. .Egerton leu oacE in a son 01 nt and was carried hastily out of court "Will vou repeat your statement?" asked the horrified counsel. "Miss Egerton was the poor girl found murdered?" "Yes, Madeline was murdered," repeated Lina, as tbough to enforce that terrible fact on her memory, then her calmness failed. "1 murdered her, I, Lina Kamberowski! But for me " She broke off suddenly, the confession seemed to burst from her with a painful effort, and before the sensation produced by her wild words had had time to make itself felt, she swayed and fell heav ily forward in a dead faint, which proved so deep and so prolonged as to resist all efforts to restore her to consciousness. After a quarter of an hour's fruitless en deavor, the doctor declared the witness to tally unfit to give further evidence that day, and amid the wildest excitement the case was adjourned, the important nature of Miss Camberowski's evidence rendering it use less to proceed without her. Some hours later a woman entered the cell where Liha was confined on her own evi dence; the girl lay white and still only partially conscious; an occasional tearless sob shook her slender form. A female warder sat by her couch working by the dim light of a solitary candle. The intruder advanced to the girl's side, threw herself on her knees, and covered the prisoner's little white hand with wild passionate kisses. As she did so the light fell on her dark handsome face, with its piercing black eyes now dimmed and marred with weeping, her pale face framed in thick dark hair. A strange face t And a strange history belonged to that kneeling figure. She was Marie Kamberow ski, Lina's mother, and Mme Silvani, the celebrated prima donna of the opera. As she called her daughter tenderly by her name and strove vainly to rouse her to the consciousness of her presence, the peculiar foreign accent struck the ear. It was the same voice that on New Year's Eve had re quested John Brown to take care of her lug gage at the Great B junction. The warder was inured to scenes of misery, but even her callousness was touched by the utter despair of the mother as she knelt beside her child. What a fair young creature to plead guilty to so fearful a crime. Could she have been in full possession of her senses when she was giving her evidence? The Bhort period allowed for visiting was nearly at an end when Lina Kamberowski at last opened her eyes, only to fix them with terror and loathing on the imploring face that hung over her. "My loved one, speak to your mother!" For'all answer the girl flung out her arms with a gesture of utter abhorrence; a wild light burnt in her lovely eyes. "What have you done?" she cried. "Was it not enough to rob and deceive, but that she must be murdered! Who did it?" As her piercing, horror-struck gaze met her mother's face, Marie Kamberowski started and shuddered, and unable to bear that glance from her child she rose to her feet, and, with a despairing gesture, pressed both hands to her neck to choke back the torrent of her emotion. "Who did it?" repeated Lina in a fierce whisper; then, her strength failing, she fell back on her couch once more. "For me it was done," she moaned, "I alone will atone! Deceived and betrayed; oh, Made line, lorgive! forgive!" The excitement of the interview was too much; she relapsed into her former unconsciousness. "Time's up," said the warder at the deor. Marie Kamberowski stood as if' turned to stone as her daughter uttered those despair ing words. "Atone!" That word rang in her ears. She bent for one instant over her daughter and pressed her lips twice passionately to the pale face. "You shall njt suffer! You are innocent it is for me to atone. Fare well, my life! my darling! We shall not meet again!" she murmured to the deaf ears. Then, drawing down her veil, she swept with graceful steps out of the cell, and, as the door closed between them, mother and daughter were parted forever. CHAPTER V. The opera was crowded the famous prima donna Madam Silvani had never looked more beautiful. The well-known tragedy "Lncretia Borgia" was being per formed; Madam Silvani took the part of the wicked duchess. The rich costume of black lace became her tall, graceful figure ad mirably and was totally unrelieved by the slightest touch of color, but was fastened here and there by diamond stars; her rich voice had never been more true or powerful, and held the house entranced toward the thrilling finale. Madam Silvani's impassioned rendering of the scene between Gennero and his mother, the anguish and remorse of Ln cretia on finding her son among the poisoned guests, was -depleted with extraordinary feeling and pathos. Several times involun tary murmurs of applause rose from the audience. As Gennero died Lucretia ad vanced to the footlights, her pale face wild with the madness of despair, and gave the two last lines, "Sul mio capo il cielo av venta! II sno strali punitor!" As she sank dying to the ground) the curtain fell amid deafening applause, which was prolonged as the prima donna failed to reappear before the curtain to acknowledge the people's homage. In a few moments the manager made his appearance, his face pale and dis turbed: "I have to thank you on the part of Madam Silvani, but she is too unwell to come before you to-night" With murmurs of pity and disappointment the spectators slowly dispersed. Behind the drop scene lay Madam Sil vani on the same spot where Lucretia Borgia had expired in the final act The tenor supported her head on his knee and various restoratives were administered, though all present saw plainly such efforts were useless. It was a strange scene. The theatrical background, the fantastic dresses, gave a wild appearance to the group. The flaming gaslight lit up the faces of the terrified and bewildered actors and revealed in their midst, in Mme. Silvani, the famous singer, the features of Marie Kamberowski. The hand was tightly clenched over a small dark bottle. This attracted the attention of the horrified manager. "What is it?" he asked nervously, pointing to the vial con cealed in the palm of the white hand. Alas! the wild, passionate nature bad Bought to avert discovery and consequent misery by taking away "her own life, as she had remorselessly taken away that of the innocent girl who stood between ber and her unscrupulous design. Her daughter, the only being whose love had influenced her melaacholv life for whose sake she had un hesitatingly perpetrated the most awful crime, was innocent, and was at once ac quitted, but at the cost of another's life; her lreedom was bought, but at 'the price of her mother's death. In the prima donna's rooms were found two sealed packets, both ad dressed to "My daughter, Lina Kamber owski." One contained various diamonds and other jewels presented to her during her short but brilliant career upon the stage, the other a closely written confession relating to the mysterious and terrible mur der of the fair Madeline Egerton, and the extraordinary scheme of concealing the crime in the long black box. " CHAPTER TL Marie Kamberowski's confession ran as follows: My loved Lina, for yon I write the following the opinion of others Is ot no value to me; I care for no one. I would gladly! oh, how gladly, have saved thee from pain; but it mad dened me to see you, my beautiful Lina, in prison! How yon discovered my crime I know not Why I did It and when I will teU yon. You shall be free; your own wild words were enough to condemn you, nut you must not be suspected of a crime of which you are entirely guiltless. I was, as yon know, governess to Madeline Egerton's mother, and I loved her dearly, bnt one came between us who turned my love to bitterest hate. That one was Grenfell Eger ton. The courtesy of his manner and bis band some face drew me to him with a strange fas cination. I was only three years older than Lucy. At 20 1 was handsome; he admired me, bnt his love was never mlnel The touch of his hand, the sound of his voice thrilled my very soull I loved him not as these fair English women love, but passionately, with a jealous, mad devotion, and he knew ill He played with my strong feelings, be laughed at met bis love was centered on Lucy alone, that delicate, fair-haired girl with her large, soft bine eyes. Weill the end camo; she married him, and I was needed no longer. I left them with a burning hatred in my heart and though Lucy Egerton often wrote to beg me to go and stay with her, 1 refnsed coldly; I conld not brook the sight of ner nappiness witn tne man l sun so passion ately loved. I went to London and took sing ing lessons In the hope of gaming money by my voice. Your father was my singing master. He found my voice good, and, as I afterward dis covered, looked npon me as a sure means of getting money in the future. He was then a young, handsome man. Karlo Kamberowski was the young Pole with the. exquisite tenor voice, he professed violent love for me. I was alone and nearly penniless. With the bitter memory of Gronfell Egerton's coldness rank ling in my heart with the hopelessness and apathy of dlspair, I married this unscrupulous man. The same year Lucy Egerton died! Grenfell wrote to me in bis frantic grief, saying he knew I bad been a friend of his be loved wife's; therefore be begged me to under take for the sake of that friendship the entire charge of bis little daughter Madeline, then only 2 years old: he offered me a most hand come remuneration if I would consent and added that he was leaving England at once and probably forever to seek distraction from his grief in travel and a life of danger and ad venture, only delaying his departure till he heard from me. When I received this letter a tumult of rage filled my heart It was too much to ask that I should take ber child and cherish it for him. My husband, however, whose love of money was insatiable, insisted on my at once consenting, and 1 date my feel ing of dislike to him from that period. He forced me to accept Madeline came; you were then only a year old. Years went on; at inter vals I received letters from Grenfell, short let ters, merely inclosing cheqnes for expenses and inclosnres for his child. Those cold, formal letters stung me afresh. The utter indiffer ence was cutting to my pride. My long epis tles, full of ill-suppressed passionate love, re vived my old longing, but he remained utterly passionate and unmoved. Suddenly the news reached us that Mr. Eger ton had unexpectedly come Into a large fort une through the death of a distant relative, and was on his way back to England. My bus band, whose Inveterate love of money I have mentioned before, then formed the wild ex travagant idea of forcing yon to represent Madeline Egerton, thus eventually making you the heiress to all the newly-acquired wealth; the perfect seclusion of Madeline and yourself rendering this deception almost easy, many people being entirely Ignorant of your exist ence or of hers. I was known in fashionable circles as Mme. Silvani, the great singer at the opera, but of my private life little was known. For once I fell in readily with my hus band's unscrupulous plans. I hated the child; 1 was jealous of your love for her, jealous of her fair beauty, and the startling lfkeness to her mother ever revived the old pain of de spair. But for her mother I might have been a happy woman. The difficulty was to con ceal Madeline, for a time at least so as to deny discovery. Enough! you know, my poor Lina, how we forred you to person ate yonr companion and deceive her father: we told yon that there were urgent rea sons that Madeline and her father should not meet for the present and hinted that some ter rible calamity would come upon us in case you failed to comply with our wishes. Once I al most relented at your utter distaste and be wilderment; bat the thoughts of you, rich and living in good society, made me firm to my pur pose. The London bouse was prepared for its owner, the old caretaker dismissed and a new set of serv&nts encaged: they were told von were their mistress, and the day before Mr. 1 Egerton's arrival you were msiaiiea. as you remember, all this was Bent hidden from Mad eline; she was unaware that you had left the house. An hour after your departure she re turned from her ride. My husband bad writ ten, urging many plans as to getting rid of this girl, who was the only obstacle between you and the immense fortune. Now so much was ventured on it was no use hesitating as to ways and means, be said, and went on to hint at various schemes; but I read between the lines. I knew that he saw but one way. That was as clear to me as though printed in letters of fire on my brain. Murder was the only way. As I sat in the dusk of the December after noon brooding over my thoughts I beard Mad eline enter and run to your empty room. Find ing it tenantless she ran down stairs again, to where I was sitting in the firelight in the old study. It was a dark, old-fashioned room. with rows of mnsty books. Over the fireplace hung quaint old pieces of armor, rusty swords and foreign knives, which gleamed sullenly in the red firelight I rose as the girl entered and leaned one elbow on the mantelp ece and mo tioned to her to close the door. "Come in," I said, coldlv. "What do you want?" "Is Lina at home, madameT" she asked in the timid voice she always addressed me, for she was always afraid of me, and she advanced a few Bteps to ward me in the uncertain light. Her likeness to her mother was striking; I seemed to see Lucy rise before me: as the child (for she was little more), turned her large blue eyes upon me, the soul of her mother seemed to look out with unutterable reproach for mv treachery. The look maddened me in my excited state; I movedVimpatiently, and as I did my eyes fell on the glittering hilt of a foreign knife that hung close to my bead. In that instant my brain was on fire, the key to the solution of the diffi culty lay in my hands. I lowered my eyes for fear even in that dim light she should read "murder'' in them. As I made no reply she turned to leave the room; her band was on the door when she stopped and with a shy smile she said, "Mv father will be back to-morrow. Will he come to see me here directly?" These questions! How should I answer them? There was one way to silence them foreverl The only sound was the clock's slow ticking, as once more thoso bine eyes turned to mine for an answer, and the little figure stood wait ing. Only this little fragile being between my daughter's wealth and success. A demon seized me. I tore the knife from the wall and as she gazed, the smile frozen on. her baby face, her feet rooted to the spot I struck ber to the heart My aim was deadly and one stroke was enough. She fell without a cry, but one heavy sobbing breath. My heart stood still as I gazed on the victim of my frantic deed, but with no regret; terror or discovery alone possessed me. Without re moving the knife I seized the lifeless girl in my arms and rushed up the snllgbted staircase, to your deserted room, and locked the door. I placed the body on the floor. Yes. my revenge and hatred were amply satisfied: she was quite dead. 1 shuddered as I looked at the calm face, now deadly pale in the first fading twi light I threw my black shawl over the inani mate form, and pressing my bands to my burn ing forehead, tried wildly to think of some plan of concealment At that moment hasty footsteps came along the passage. A large old-fashioned black box lay open in the comer. I sometimes used it for my theat rical properties and had that mormugjooked at it with a view to using it for your packing, but finally rejected it as being too long and heavy; there was no time tor reflection, the steps were approaching. A panic seized me. I stooped hastily and lifted the girl, still wrapped in my shawl, and placed her inside it A strange coffin! Two or three ghastly stains had already marked the floor. I shuddered and threw a rng across the boards; locking the box I put the key in my pocket and had barely time to raise myself up right when a servant knocked hastily at the door. "A telegram, madam," she cried, and as I opened the door she presented me with' a yel low envelope. I tore it open; It was from the manager of the opera, saying that the new singer who was to appeal that night In "Lucre tif Borgia" had failed them suddenly from ill ness, and he begged me to return to town Im mediately and take ber place. I dismissed the servant and tried to think. In a short time Madeline' absence would be dis covered; if Mr. Egerton should remain longer in England than we supposed likely. I Should be questioned. Complications would then arise, and danger confronted me. Here was a temporary escape, but bow to conceal my crime ? A thousand plans ruabed through ay brain. Suddenly I conceived the wild idea of taking that fatal box with me and leaving it at some large railway station to be claimed. It might bo lost in this way and sus picion diverted for a time. Going to Madeline's room I closed her door and double-locked it Then 1 descended into the drawing room, for a sudden horror made me avoid the library. Ringing the bell, I told the servants 1 was going that evening to town. I bad pressing business. I desired that no one should distnrb Miss Egerton, as she bad come in very tired from riding, and wished no one to go to her that evening, as she was gone to bed. In half an bonr I was dressed and on my way to the station, and traveling by the Great Southern line to town, stopping only once, at B Junction. It was only a few minutes be fore arriving at the jnnction that 1 conceived the idea of leaving the box and its secret at the parcels office there. With me impulse is action I From all the miserable after results I can only imagine that Grenfell Egerton mnst have traveled by the same line next morning, and in some mysterious way discovered the box and imagined it part of his luggage, its odd shape being not unlike his own package cases. Tbis unforeseen extraordinary fatality never entered my thoughts, which at this time dwelt with fierce exultation on the meeting between you and Grenfell. How could he fall to love you? All his fortune wonld be Bbortly in your power, and when he again returned to Africa I should qnit the stage and live with you in luxury. Revenge was also gratified in the thought of the deception I was practicing upon him! Oh, Lina, my darling! what I suffered when the news reached meyouwerein prison, arrested for my crime I A horrible despair overtook me and dashed my fond dreams of happiness to the earth. A remorse, not for my crime, but for your suffer ings; theldeaof your discovering my guilt made me tremble; that alone wrung my sonl. Lina, my loved one, when I entered the cell and yon shrank from me with loathing death itself was not more bitter. Madness raged in my brain. Your father, like a coward as he was, an unscrupulous, self ish wretch, finding discovery inevitable, had fled to Poland, fearing to be implicated in the revelations at the trial. I stood ntterly forsaken, alonel and miser able. Twice Grenfell Egerton had stood be tween me and happiness; but for you. my child, my dreary life would have been ended years ago. To-night I am to play Lucretia Borgia at the opera. I feel a strange longing to bring my life to an end. Lina! why did yon turn from me? It was for yon I stained my hands with blood, only for yon, to see yon rich and happy. To morrow But here the melancholy and painful con fession ended abruptly, but its object was attained, and with it ended the secret of the Black Box. London Society. MEAT ON THE HOOF.

One of our leading florists reports that he was forced to refuse orders the past week in spite of heavy receipts from New York.

BECAME DISCOURAGED The Story Told by Mr. Leman Warden, of Allegheny, OTHER INTERESTING NOTES. "I had become discouraged, and about given up all hope of ever being myself again, as my trouble had existed for over 21 years, and I could not obtain any relief. I had tried a number of physicians, and had spent large sums of money, but only seemed to get worse instead of better." The speaker was "Mr. Leman' F. Warden, who resides at No. 29 Windsor street, Alle gheny. He is foreman of the hinge depart ment of Lindsay & McCutcheon's exten sive machine shops, located on Rebecca street, Allegheny, and is well known throughout the community. "I was about 15 years old when I first no ticed my trouble," continued Mr. Warden. "It came on with a severe cold. At first my head became stopped up. 'My nostrils were so clogged that I could scarcely breathe. I had a dull, heavy pain in my forehead di rectly over my eyes. There was a dropping back of matter into my throat, and I was constantly hawking and raising, trying to clear it There seemed to be a lump which could neither get up nor down. My eyes were weak and discharged a watery sub stance. I had a constant ringing in my ears. l-if, Leman F. Warden, 29 Windsor Street. "Gradually my trouble grew worse and my throat became affected, and at times was so sore that I could scarcely swallow. Finally my whole system became involved. I would get up in the morning more tired than when I went to bed. I had no appe tite. I would sit down at the table feeling hungry, but the very sight of food seemed to nauseate me. What little I did eat I had great difficulty in retaining on my stomach. My chest and lungs were soon involved. Sharp pains would shoot through my chest, stabbing like a knite. They wonld be sosevere at times as to almost take my breath. "It was while in this condition that I read of a case similar to mine, that bad been cured by Drs. Copeland Jb Blair. I called at their office, and afier consultation, placed myself under their care. "I soon began to notice an improvement My nostrils were no longer stopped. My head ceased to ache. My eyes were no longer weak. My throat became better, and I could eat a good, hearty meal. 1 feel, to be brief, like a different person, and owe the change in my condition to Drs. Copeland A Blair. Mr. Warden can be seen at either of the above places, and this interview easily verified. MR. BARNES1 STORY. Siaiement From a Well-Known Gentleman of Hickman, Pa. The statement given below is from one of the patients residing out of the city who was treated from the office of Drs. Copeland & Blair. The gentleman in question is Mr. William Barnes, of Hickman, Pa., a thriv ing town on the Pittsburg, Chartiers and Youghiogheny Railroad, about 15 miles out from Pittsburg. During a recent conversation with the writer, he said: "Five years ago my trouble first made its appearance, and it continued to grow steadily worse until I was at last in a very serious condition. My head and nose were first stopped up, and there was a dropping from my head to my throat. I would get up in the morning feeling more tired than when I went to bed the night be fore. I could eat but little, and what I did eat laid like a heavy load on my stomach. "At last the trouble extended to mv chest There wonld be sharp pains stabbing like a knife right over my heart My lungs became affected and I bad a dry hacking cough. I grew weaker and weaker and was unable to do any work. I lost all sense of taste and smell. I was advised to go to England. I went there, and spent a great deal ot money, but derived no benefit I became disheartened and hon estly believed my trouble wonld soon cause my death. "I was advised while in this condition to try Drs. Copeland fc Blair. I had read of the great good they were doing, so determined to see them. "The result has been a great surprise to me. I Improved rapidly from the very first I soon regained my sense of smell and taste. I have no more trouble with my heart or pains in my chest I can eat well and feel refreshed by my sleep. I can work all day an J" feel good at night. In fact I am perfectly well. I owe my recovery to Drs. Copeland & Blair, and shall be glad to speak with anyone abont my case." Result of Home Treatment. Some time ago Mr. Harry Phillips, of Hulton, Allegheny county, Pa., com menced a course of home treatment for his catarrhal trouble, under the care of Drs. Copeland & Blair. At that time his trouble had assumed a very aggravated form. He stated to the writer as follows: "My nostrils would clog up. My head ached constantly. I had severe pains in my chest There was a dropping of mucus from my head to my throat I had night sweats. My heart would palpitate rapidly, and be followed by a slow, irregular beating and feeling of f aintness. I was daily growing weaker. The slightest ex ertion tired me, and I was unfit for work." "How do you feel nowT" "Like another being. All the symptoms I have described to yon have disappeared, and I feel as well as I ever was in my lite." Last May Miss Lottie J. Forker, of 299 Arch street Meadville, Pa., placed herself under treatment by mail with Drs. Copeland b Blair for her catarrhal trouble. On June 9 she wrote: "Your medicine Is doing me good. I do not feel so tired, and my head aches have ceased." August 28 her letter stated: "I feel quite like a different woman from the one I was when I commenced your treatment" Mr. M. C Wilson, who commenced using the home treatment early In Jnly, wrote on the 25th of the same month: "lam improving steadily; feel much better than I have for years past" August 10 he wrote: "I am feeling like a dif ferent being from the one I was when I com menced your treatment, and am glad to be able to make this statement" DOCTORS Cllilttll!
