SAW MEN BLOWN TO FRAGMENTS Bemidji Boy Witnessed Dyna- mite Explosion Near Akeley Saturday. Ross Casler, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Casler of this city, witnessed the blowing - into fragments of two men by an ex- plosion of 30 pounds of dynamite on the Red River Lumber com- pany’s spur out from Akeley Saturday morning, and narrowly escaped a like fate himself. Young Casler was sitting on the same box upon which the men were sitting while they were thawing out the dynamite just one minute before the explosion occurred, but got up and walked away in order to allow more men to sit down to keep warm by the fire. When about 200 feet away from the fire the explosion took place, killing the men instantly. The names of the unfortunate men are Ed Fisher and Arthur Moore, the latter being a resident of Eilk River, Minn. Private Powers Relieved.

A Véluable Agent. ‘The glycerine employed in Dr. Pierce’s medicines greatly enhances the medi- cinal properties which it extracts and holds in solution much better than alco- hol would.. It also possesses medicinal properties of its own, being a valuable demulcent, nutritive, antiseptic and anti- ferment. It adds greatly to the efficacy of the Black Cherrybark, Golden Seal root, Stone root and Queen’s root, con- tained in *Golden Medical Discovery” in subduing chronic, or lingering coughs, ‘bronchial, throat and lung affections, for all of which these agents are recom- mended by standard medical authorities. In all cases where there'is a wasting away of flesh, loss of appetite, with weak stomach, as in the early stages of consumption, there can be no doubt that g]_gcerine acts as a valuable nutritive and aids the Golden Seal root, Stone root, Queen’s root and Black Cherrybark in promoting digestion and building up the flesh and strength, controlling the cough and bringing about a healthy condition i of the whole sgst.em. Of course, it must | not be expected to work miracles. It will ¢ not cure consumption except in its earlier stages. It will cure very severe, obstin- ate, chronic coughs, bronchial and laryn- geal troubles, and chronic sore throat with hoarseness. In acute coughs it is not so effective. It is in the lingering coughs, or those of long standing, even when accompanied by bleeding from | lungs, that it has performed its most marvelous cures.
