Separated for Twenty-Two Years, Were
United Through Testimonial of
Hot Springs Doctors.
Twenty-two years ago, two brothers,
James and E. W. Brinley, separated.
They were poor and one went one way
and the other another way to seek their
fortune. Each neglected to write to
the other and in a short time they had
completely lost trace of one another.
After roaming about the country for
a number of Years James Brinley came
to Lincoln and started a shoemaker's
shop while W. E. Brinley was a little
more fortunate and secured a farm near
Arcadia and settled down got married.
After the brothers had settled down
they commenced to search for each
other, but they finally gave up in dis
pair. The Testimonial Published.
James Brinley, who is an ardent
reader of the newspaper, read the fol
lowing wonderful account in this paper,
the issue of February t, 1908:
"After months of suffering with gall
stones and many doctors had given her
no relief, Mrs. E. W. Brinley started
for home in Arcadia, Nebraska, to Kan
sas City, to undergo an operation for
her trouble. Stopping off in Lincoln for
a few hours, she was met by John Wall,
a banker of Arcadia. Mr. Wall having
been cured of an old chronic kidney
trouble by the Hot Springs Doctors, has
DR. KINSEY.
more faith in nature's nevtr failing
remedies as used by these famous speci
alists, than the surgeon's knife. Mr.
Wall was interested in saving Mrs.
Brinley from the horrors of a surgical
operation, if it were possible to do so,
and to this end he persuaded her to con
sult with the Hot Springs Doctors vho
have their Nebraska State Institution
at Fourteenth and O streets, this city,
before continuing her trip to the pospi-
talto be operated upon. The result of
the consultation with the Hot Springs
Doctors, is told in the following letter
"Arcadia, Neb., Jan. 18, 1908.
"Hot Springs Doctors,
"Lixcon, Neb.;
"Gentlemen: I have taken your
treatment three months for the cure
of gall stones and ask if you think it is
safe for me to quit taking medicine. I
have gained six ponnds and can do a
hard day's work. My neighbors tell me
I look better and have so much better
color than I have had for a long time.
You have done so much for me that I
know you will use your best judgment
now. If you think I need more medi
cine, don't let me stop too soon. What
can you do for appendicitis, as one of
my neighbors has it? I thank you for
what you have done for me and feel that
you saved my life, after other surgical
physicians said I would have to have an
operation. Mrs. E. W. Brinley,
Arcadia, Neb."
Called on Hot Springs Doctors.
As soon as Mr. Brinley read the article
he hastened to the office of the Hot
Springs Doctors to secure a description
of Mrs. Brinley and if possible, that of
her husband. Obtaining the desired in
formation Mr. J. Brinley wrote a letter
to Mr. E. W. Brinley in Arcadia with
the result that a few days later, the two
long lost brothers had a happy re-union.
The Hot Springs Doctors are in re
ceipt of thousands of just such letters
as that of Mrs. Brinley and their honest
dealings with their patients, and the
fact that they absolutely refuse to ac
cept an incurable case for treatment has
won for them a world-wide reputation.
All those suffering from chronic dis
eases of the blood, nerves, kidneys,
liver, bowels, heart, lungs, or skin, are
cordially invited to call on the doctors
for free examination and consultation.
The Hot Springs Doctors, specialists,
are permanently located in Lincoln, at
the corner of Fourteenth and O streets.
Dr. Kinsey, who is chief staff of the
Hot Springs Doctors will pay a three
days visit to Plattsmouth. He will be
here April 20, 21 and 22, and will be at
the Riley hotel. Consultation and ex
amination is free. Curable ceses will be
treated free except for the bare cost of
medicines used. Incurable cases will
not be accepted for treatment at any
price or under any conditions.

Sunday at the Churches.
j Last evening at t lie Presbyterian
i church, to a well-filled house, Superin
' tendent.I. W. Gamble of tho city schools.
addressed the young peoples' society of
i Christian Endeavor upon the subject of
the "Wise Use of Influence." In his
opening remarks, the speaker challenged
the attention of tlie hearers to any story
book with its characters, and especially
the leading one, be it a heroine or a
hero, that has his character changed by
the persons with whom he comes in
contact, showing that each character,
however obscure, has its influence upon
the life of all others. He showed that
we, in our commingling with the world
at large, have an abrupt corner of our
characters knocked off here and a
deficiency rounded out there; with the
changing, which brings out the product
of the life and character, one which we
little thought would be the result, when
we entered the race. He referred to a
little boy who was plowing on a hot
summer's day, and while stopping to
allow the horses to rest was joined by
his school teacher, who asked if he
would not like to take a course in col
lege, and after a while of conversation,
it was decided that he would if his
father's consent should be obtained.
This the friend and teacher did, and
the plow boy passed through college,
then the university, and a result of that
teacher's influence the speaker was able
to address them.
As a result of one man's influence,
he cited the turning of the utter route
of the Union army at the battle of
Winchester into a signal victory, by the
influence of the presence and energy of
one man Phil. Sheridan. He spoke of
two men of great influence in New
York City one for good and the other
for bad in the persons of Newell
Dwight Hillis, and the other Chuch
Connors, of the Chinatown of New
York, the former the pastor of the
Plymouth church, Brooklyn, where he
is using his influence for the better
ment of the human race, while Chuck
Connors of the underworld, and its
mayor, was ready to sell a man's life
for a song was using his influence for
all that opposed the good in this world.
Mr. Gamble said that the young ladies
could do more for the purification of
society, if they would exert their in
fluence in that direction, than any other
influence that could be brought to bear,
more than either press of pulpit. If
they should require that their gentle
men friends should not smoke in their
presence, should not swear or drink or
loaf on the streets all this would be
done away with. ' The speakei said
that no one could go down the street
smoking a cigarette, but there was a
probability that he was exerting an
influence upon the life of some future
president. In conclusion, he said that,
of the influence of all, there was none
which was so great as that of the Man
of Gallilee, the Saviour, and in closing
he said he would like to leave with the
hearers, the command of the Master,
when he said, "Let your light so shine
that all men may see your good works
and glory your Father, which is in
Heaven."
At the Christian Church
At the Christian church last evening
the subject being the life of John B.
Gough, George M. Porter had to say
regarding the character whose life they
were to study:
"John B. Gough was the most eloqu
ent apostle of temperance of the many
who have plead that way. He was born
in England, Aug. 22, 1817. His parents
were poor. They sent him with a
neighbor to America. His mother gave
him a Bible to read on his way with
marked passages, especially the second
to the fifth chapters of Proverbs. After
becoming a Methodist while working on
a farm, he went to New York with but
a half-dollar to his name. Great pover
ty and the ability to sing and tell funny
stories led him into bad company. He
became a drunkon actor. The first
play in which he appeared was: "De
parted Spirits; or, The Temperance
Hoax," He was at one time so des
pondent he had a bottle of laudanum he
was going to drink, and was only re
strained, he said by the Spirit of God.
A waiter, named Joel Stratton, got him
to sign the pledge. He fell twice, but
was at last able to stand. When he
began to speak for temperance it was
in a feeble way, but his great powers
soon developed, and he was the leader
of them all. He won thousands to
Christ and away from drink. He died
in 1886. His life impresses me with
the great sympathy drunkards need,
and who knows what kinkness will ac
complish? Other speakers followed, much the
same, and a very interesting meeting
was had.
Death Was on His Heels.
Jesse P. Morris, of Skippers, Va.,
had a close call in the spring of 1906.
He says : ' 'An attack of pneumonia left
me so weak with such a fearful cough
that my friends declared consumption
had me, and death was on my heels.
Then I was persuaded to try Dr. King's
New Discovery. It helped me immedi
ately, and after taking two and a half
bottles I was a well man again. I found
out that New Discovery is the best rem
edy for coughs and lung disease in all
the world." Sold under guarantee at

RECALL THE BLIZ
ZARD OF APRIL 1873
Old Settlers Tell Impressions
of Early Day Storm
The State Journal in speaking of the
early-day blizzards, says: Thirty-five
years ago today the "April blizzard"
of 1873 was at its height. The storm
was of great severity and traveled rap
idly eastward across the state. Much
live stock was lost in the western part
of the state and considerable damage
was done in the wrecking of the homes
of settlers by the heavy wind and the
caving in of the roofs of many sod
houses by the weight of huge snow
drifts. The blizzard raged continuously
for three days, the 13th, 14th and 15th,
coming without warning after a spell
of beautiful April weather. Traffic
throughout the eastern half of the state
was blocked for several days after the
storms and communication west of
Grand Island was entirely cut off so
that the extent of the storm was not
definitely known. Diaries and the recol
lections of the early settlers in this part
of the state contain many details of in
terest. It was believed by some to be
their first experience with a permanent
feature of the Nebraska climate.
There was little fruit in Nebraska in
those days save in the counties along
the Missouri and besides the loss of this
there were no permanent effects, the
heavy snow fall being much needed
after a comparatively dry winter.
Palmer Blake then of Tecumseh in
recalling the storm remembers most
impressively the intense cold, the ther
mometer remaining excessively low for
several days. In that vicinity much
stock was lost from exposure but there
was little snow.
Reports from York indicate a fall of
snow of some four or five feet. The
storm is vividly remembered by Henry
Seymour who was at York at the time.
The cold was so intense that the kitchen
range was removed to the basement
where the family remained for a cou
pie of days. A lad in the neighborhood
was lost in venturing but a few feet
from the door step. Several men in
the county disappeared while caring for
stock. The driven snow was blinding
for more tban sixty hours. Several
men at the Seymour home reached the
barn but a hundred feet distant by lin
ing up along the side of the house, join
ing hands and plowing through the fear
ful blast.
Much snow fell in and about Lincoln
but the cold was not unendurable. S. D.
Tuttle then living at Seventeenth and
N streets recalls that the wind blew at
the rate of eighty or ninety miles an
hour for a considerable time, driving
