Aired were out shooting a shot gun when the former accidently killed the latter. Paul was so unnerved by the terrible acci dent that he does not remember exactly how it all happened, but it seems that he had cocked the gun to shoot at something and decided not to shoot and was in the ac t of letting down the ham mer and let it slip away from him discharging the gun and shot his little brother's neck nearly off killing him instantly. The funeral service was held Sunday at the Methodist church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Seaford. There was a large con course of people out] and there was never a more pathetic scene witnessed by your correspondent and seldom anywhere. The en tire family are almost prostrated with grief. The mother was so overcome she was not able to at tend the funeral. We are sure they have the sympathy of the entire community.

The glycerine employed in Dr. Pierce'* medicines greatly enhances the medicinal properties which it extracts from native medicinal roots and holds in solution much hotter than alcohol would. It also possesses medicinal properties of its own, being a valuable demulcent, nutrltivo, antiseptic and antiferment. It adds greatly to the efficacy of the Black Cherry bark, Bloodroot, Golden Seal root, Stone root and Queen's root, contained in "Golden Medical Discovery "in subduing chronic, or lingering coughs, bronchial, throat and lung affections, for all of which these agents are recommended by stand ard 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 con sumtftipn, there can be no doubt that gly. cerineiacts as a valuable nutritive ant] aids wie Golden Seal root.

In acute coughs it Is not soenecuve. iris in the lingering hang-on coughs, or those of long standing, even when accompanied by bleeding from lungs, that it has performed its most marvelous cures. Prof. Finley Ellingwood, M. D„ of Ben nett Med. College, Chicago, says of gly cerine: "In dyspepsia itserres an excellent purpose. Holding a fixed quantity of the peroxide of hydrogen in solution, it is one of tbfe best manufactured products of the present time in its action upon enfeebled, disordered stom achs, especially if there is ulceration or ca tarrhal gastritis (catarrhal inflammation of stomach), it is a most efficient preparation. Glycerine will relieve many cases of pyrosis (heartburn) and excessive gastric (stomach) acidity." "Golden Medical Discovery" enriches and purifies the blood curing blotches, pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellings and old sores, or ulcers. Send to Dr. IL V. Pierce, of Buffalo* N.

It would be just as sensible for them to prescribe Quinine in its crude form as to pre scribe Cod Liver Oil in its natural state. In Scott's Emulsion the oil is emulsified and made easy to take—easy to digest and easy to be absorbed in to the body—and is the most I natural and useful fatty food to feed and nourish the wasted body that is known in medicine today.
