An "Evening Leader" (Grand
vRapids) Newsboy Sustains
Serious Injury.
Brief History of a Brave Little Fel
low's Patient Suffering.
It will be a year in November since ono of
the brightest faces among the Evening
Leader's throng of happy newsboys was snd
denly missed from'his regular daily visits at
tho counting rooms. His rosy cheeks and
sparkling eyes, full of fun and enthusiasm,
ntensified by tho knowledge that he was
earning money by his own efforts, made him
a conspicuous figure anions his host of little
competitors.
By inquiry it wns learned that the little
business man (whoso name is Gilbert C Mc
Donald) had sustained painful and probably
fatal injuries by falling from a fence post,
striking heavily upon his head and hip,
whilo playing near the home of his father,
John McDonald, at 437 South Ionia street.
Since that timo.up to last March the little
sufferer had grautially lost the use of his
limbs and body, finally becoming a con
firmed and helpless invalid. In vain did
anxious parents seek the medical profession
for help; the best talent was powerless.
Times -without number were tho heart
broken parents and sympathizing friends
called to watch tho terrible agony of the lit
tle wasted body, expecting every moment to
see their precious ono torn from them by
the dread destroyer.
It was with tills knowledge of the case,
together witli tho fact that this same littlo
boy is now a happy youth among his play
fellows that tlio Leader, -n 1th a natural in
terest for one of its many newsboys, gives
Its veadors a brief history of his terrible
sickness and miraculous recovery as related
by his parents and their neighbors.
THE MOTHEK'S STOUT.
Mrs. McDonald -n as seen at her home yes
terday, and that lady told the story of her
son's sickness and final recovery with that
Interest only to be found in a mother's heart.'
Gilbert was .present, and apparently en
Joyed a retrospective history of himself:
"Gilbert will be 12 years old In October,"
said Mrs. McDonald, "and wero you familiar
with his past sufferings, you would consider
it a miraclo that he is with us to-day. His
sickness was caused by the accidental fall
from a post, striking on his head and hip,
last Novembor. After the accident he grad
uaUy lost tho use of his limbs untU ho was
unable to move hand or foot. AVe employed
several good physicians, but he grow worse,
becoming perfectly paralyzed; there was
no feeling in his limbs. The doctors run
pins into his legs and arms and ho could not
feel it. His hair stopped growing, became
dry, teeth loose, and his tonguo became
swollen nnd speechless; he could not even
move his eyelids. He would go Into convul
sions for hours and suffer tho most terrible
agony. Shortly bofore we employed the doc
tors who finally cured him he went into a
convulsion at 5 o'clock In tho morning, last
ing until 9 o'clock at night.' I sent lor -my
husband at tho cablo company's power
house, and wo looked every moment to seo
him die. That night my husband noticed In
tho Evening Leader the advertisement of
the Electrical and Medical Institute, and al
though ono doctor told us that electricity
would kill him he resolved to try it, as every
other resourco had been exhausted. He
went down and consulted with tho medi
cal director of tho Institute The doctor
c&me and examined the case and informed
us that if the brain was not too badly af
fected he could cure him. For ten days be
fore the doctor came he had been entirely
speechless and as a dead person, at no time
giving any signs of recognition. That night
the doctor treated him, and the next morn
ing he was better, speaking for the first time
in ten days. You may well lmagino my feel
ing of gratitude and joy as I saw my boy re
turn to consciousness- Tho next day the
doctor said: 'Your boy will play ball in
throe months from now.' I cherished that
Firomiso closo to my heart and watched its
olfillment. He grew better right along, his
mental and physical strength improvednom
the very first treatment, and now ho plays
ball wifh his associates and has been up
since the first of June. Tho doctors com
menced treating him about the first of
March."
