Iied Like a Hero.
James M. Prentiss, son of Hon.
William Prentiss of Evauston, and
formerly of MeDonough county,
lost his life in Lake Michigan last
week, while saving the life of a young
lady he accompanied in a pleasure
ride in a boat. After having watched
her escort row the boat for some
time, the young lad' requested him
to change positions with her that she
might row awhile. In so doing
the boat was turned with the waves
and at once became unmanageable,
turning the occupants into the wa
ter to struggle for life. No sooner
had they reached water than James
cried for help, and upon hearing him,
a crew put out to save the young
people. James swam to his friend
and, seizing her, swam back to the
boat and secured her hands to the
boat, but as the waves were tossing
the boat to and fro, and as the young
lady was almost frantic, she became
loosened and was again on the mer
cies of the lield of waters. Again he
struggled until he had placed her
hands on the boat, but of no avail.
His efforts to rescue her were untir
ing, telling her to be calm that he
would save her life, but finally his
strength failed him, and just as he
reached the boat the lifth time with
his burden, he became exhausted and
went down just in time to escape be
in r rescued by the crew that were on
their way to save them. The crew
reached the younj lady in time
to save her, but her brave hearted
escort went down before their eyes.
The body was recovered and taken
to Macomb, where the interment was
made. The grief stricken father has
the svmpathy of many Iiock Island
county friends in his reat affliction.

I have been a great sufferer from
catarrh for over 10 years; had it very
bad, could hardly breathe. Some
nights I could not sleep and had to
walk the floor. I purchased Ely's
Cream Balm and am using it freely
it is working a cure surely. I have
advised several friends to use it, and
with happy results in every case. It
is the medicine above all others for
catarrh, and it is worth its weight in
gold. I thank God I have found a
remedy I can use with safety and
that does all that is claimed for it.
It is curing my deafness. B. W.
