CURED.
" About seven or eight months ago I
was attacked by a cough, and at once
began to take a medicine much adver-
tised as an expectorant, and continued
using it until'I had taken about six bot-
tles. Instead of giving me relief, it only
made me worse. I tried several other
remedies, but all in vain, and I don’t
think I had three whole nights’ rest
during my illness. I began to‘think that
Consumption
had laid hold of me, and my hopes of
,recovery were all gone. I was a mere
skeleton, but a friend of mine, who had
been some time away, called to see
me. He recommended me to try-Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral, and kindly sending
me a bottle, I took it, but with little
hopes of recovery. I am thankful, how-
ever, to say that it cured me, and I am
to-day enjoying the best of health.”—

AN INTERESTING SKETCH.
Nothin a eals so strongly to a mother’s
aflectiongaspfier daughter just buddinguinto
womanhood. Following is an instance: Our
daughter. Blanche, now 5 years of age, had
beenterribly afflicted W1 .1 nervousness. and
had lost the entire use of her right arm. 'Shle
wasin such a condition that we had to keep
her from school and abandon. her music les-
sons In fact. we feared St. Vitus dance. and
are positive but for an invaluable remedy
she would have had that terrible affliction.
We had em loyed physicians, but she received
no benefit gem them. The first of last August
she weighed but 75 pounds. and although she
has taken only three bottles of Nervine she
now weighs 106 pounds; her nervousness and
mptoms of St.Vitus (lance are entirely gone,
She attends school regularly, and studies With
comfort and case. She has recovered complete
use of her arm, 1781‘ appetite is splendid. and
no money could procure for our daughter the
health Dr. Miles’ Nervine has brou rht her.

More About Elmira Reform-
atory Punishment-s.
Inmates Who Died. After a Visit to
the Paddle-Many ml or "Black
Eyes and Bruises — Kicked and
Beaten for Infringement of Rules.
‘ ELMIRA, N. Y..-Dec. 18.—At the after-
noon session of the Elmira reformatory
investigation Henry Schultz, 18 years old,
and a little over four feet in hight, was
called as a witness. He was sent from
Medina in June, 1892, for attempting
burglary. He Weighs 110 pounds. He
was disciplined in the bathroom three
times.
by Mr. Brookwny, and blood flowed from
his face. He was sent to the bathroom
for not performing his task in the foun-
dry. Witness saw two men come out of
the bathroom with bloody noses and the
skin broken thereon. When _he asked Mr.
Brockway to change his task the superin-
tendent felt the arm of the witness and
replied that he was able to do the foundry
work. * -
Frank White was sent from New York
city in May last for stealing. He is 25
years of age. He had never been punished
in the reformatory. He had seen other
inmates come out of the bathroom with
faces swollen so they could not see.
Pierce was the name of one of these.
Witness said he saw Pierce carried out of
the bathroom, one man holding his head
and an other his feet. Pierce was put in
the solitary cell. Witness said that
another person named Mshoney, who re-
ceived the bathroom treatment, died sub-
sequently.
Walter E. Lewis was sent here
from Haverstrsw for grand larceny at the
age of 16. He was punished in the bath-
room a dozen times. He received two
black eyes there. Witness saw a prisoner
named McLee come out of the bathroom
with his face swollen and black above his
mouth and his eyes closed. McLeee had
to be led around for a week after that.
Another prisoner named Murray died in the
hospital after he was paddled. Witness
had been struck in the face in the bath-
room with Mr. Brockway’s fist. He had
disobeyed the rules.
Robert Harrigan was 17 years old when
he was sent here from New York city,
three years ago. He had been paddled
about 18 times, generally for failure to
perform his task. Mr. Brockway had hit
‘him in the neck, cutting a gash, and over
the eye, closing it. Witness was also
kicked in the stomach by Superintendent
Brookway and was knocked insensibie.
Thomas J. Lumsden was sent to the
reformatory from New York city for grand
larcency, second degree. He testified that
he had been cruelly punished twice, once
for talking. The first time he received
six blows on the back and four across the
abdomen. There was agash cut on his
right side. He fell to the floor and then
Col. Halpin and omcer Sample sat on
him and kicked him. Handcuffs were
placed on his wrists and he was hoisted
up with the aid of a. pulley to a standing
position. He showed. a. scar onhis right
wrist made by a handcuflf at the time
when he was also given a black eye. The
second punishment was occasioned by the
witness having a newspaper in his posses-
sion contrary to the rules. This time he
was strung-up, after falling to the floor
from the severity of the paddling, and
While lying there Col. Halpin kicked him.
Supt. Brockway struck the witness in the
face with his fist. A swelled eye was the
result, he said. When he came out of
the bathroom his face was bruised and
bloody. He was then placed in a cell un-
til his face was better. He said that the
punishment was doled out for trivial
offenses and piled up so unreasonably
every month as to take all ambition out
of them in their endeavor to make a good
record.
Daniel Leahy was sent here from the
Rochester house of refuge. He is about
20 years of age now, weighing 105 pmnds.’
He had been punished in the b.i;.ii-002n
several times. _He had a tooth kicked out
and was knocked down by Col. Halpin,
and Mr. Sample kicked him in the face.
Another time when witnessed was being
paddled and when he turned his face, Mr.
Brockway struck him in the face and
blackened his eye. When he promised to
behave himself the superintendent Would
not desist in his punishments. Witness
had been strung up three times in the
bathroom so that his feet were lifted OR
the floor. Keeper Sample caught witness
by the throat to prevent him from scxe Im-
ing during the’inflicting of punishment.
“fitness is serving time for stealing $5 and
must remain in the reiormatory under the
law until he is 21 years of age. He was
admitted when 13 years old.
Deputy Attorney General Gilbert here
remarked that he could not see Ihe justice
in so severely punishing a‘ young lazl for
such a. slight offense.
. John Van Deusen, 20 years old, said he
had been paddled about 17 different times.
When he was strung up he had been struck
on the face by Mr. Brockway. He said
that when the strap on the paddle was
wet it would stick to the flesh, drawing
the skin off and cause blood to flow.
“’itness said that the inmate monitors
would report convicts for the most simple
offenses, which the citizen keepers would
not. He thought that the discipline would
be much improved if the inmate monitors
were abolished.
James Shartle was sent here from New
York city. He has been punished in the
bathroom nine times. One time he was
struck in the eye and new cannot see
out of it.
