Sudden Deaths. Globe-Democrat There is no little preaching, both in and out of the pulpit, as to the ever-present danger of sudden death and like all truisms, it grows dull to the general ear aftera time. Yet it is a startling certainty, as the record for the year just closed shows. As far as recorded, the loss of life by shipwreck was 4,250; by railway ac- cidents, 3,632; and by other casual- ties, over 24,000. Add to these dis- mal figures the 5,759 reported mur- dered in the United States alone, and we bave a total of 37,641 violent deaths, or an average of over one hundreds for every day in the year. Eyen a life insurance advocate could hardly find a more eloquent illustra- tion of the ever impending possibil- ity of an untimely taking off, espe- cially if there could be added to the dismal jist the vastly greater num- ber who are dying daily of what are known to medical men as accidental diseases. It is a big thing to say but never- theless true, that a great multitude of people have crowned Simmons Liver Regulator “King of Liver Medicines.” There is nothing like it for Malaria, Rheumatism. Chills and Fever, Constipation, Biliousness, Sick Headache, Indigestion and all troubles arising from a sluggish or diseased liver. Simmons Liver Reg- ulator is the prevention and cure for theso ailments. Set Upon By Armed Boers.
