In hia earlier days Mr. White was strung and athletic, but uow while ou the declining side of forty, hard work and disease have made him a different man, although today lie is in good health.

When the grippe visited this section seven years ago, Mr White was one of those attacked by this fearful disease a <1 was confined to Ilia bed for several days. After recovering enough to sit up for a few days, concluded he was well enough to get out about his work. He went out too soon. Most all pa­ tients do that. He had a relapse aud was confined to his bed for several weeks. His old disorders became greatly affected. Tho efforts of his physician, who hud beeu attending him all the time, proved unavailing. The doctor was dismissed. Several oth­ ers were tried but their treatment was useless. Mr. White doctored himself and used many remedies said to lie good tor Ins diseases, but be wus uot helped. He went to Matisville and took the baths, but they did him only tempor­ ary gixvd.
