S9IEII PIT LIFE"
—That’s what a prominent
druggist said of Scott’s
Emulsion a short time
ago. As a rule we don’t
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec
tion with Scott’s Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age Scott’s
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying im
proper ajid weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The action of
Scott’s Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul
sion itself. What it does
t does through nourish
ment—the kind of nourish
ment that cannot be ob
tained in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain Scott’s
Emulsion and gather good
from it.
We will send you a
sample free.
Ec sure that this picture in the
form of a label is on the wrapper
of every bottle of Emulsion you
buy.

The Grip.
“Before we can sympathize with
others, we must have suffered our
selvss. ” No one can realize the suffer
ing attendant upon an attack of the
grip, unless he has had the actual ex
perience. There is probably no dis
ease that causes so much physical or
mental agony, or which so successfully
defies medical aid. All danger from
the grip, however, may be avoided by
the prompt use of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy. Among the tens ot
thousands who have used this remedy,
not one case has ever been reported
that has resulted in pneumonia or
that has not recovered. For sale by
P. C. Corrigan.
EWING
M. T.Sanders has a patent lire alarm
that start as soon as the fire starts
anywhere about the building in which
you have it placed. It can be con
nected so the alarm will go off in
another building other than the one
in which the fire originates. The
alarm will continue until the fire is
entirely out.
J. A. ‘Trommershausser purchased
from C. T. Gunter this week, the
famous Pickerel Lake where every
man, woman and child who have
lived in Ewing during the last 20
years or more, have fished or eaten
some of the many fish caught there.
Trom. seems to have an eye for the
good things about Ewing.
A purse of 950 was soon raised last
Friday, and on Saturday a lot of men
went out to Stewart Murphy’s, built
an addition to his 10x12 house, paper
ed it all and finished it up. It was
certainly a short order house. Several
ladies were out who made Mrs. Mur
phy much more comfortable and she
is improving nicely.—The Advocate.
Stomach Troubles and Constipation.
“Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver
Tablets are the best thing for stomach
troubles and constipation I have ever
sold,” says J. R. ^ullman, a druggist
of Potterville, Mich. They are easy
to take and always give satisfaction.
I tell my customers to try them and
if not satisfactory to come back and
get their money, but have never had
a complaint” For sale by P. C. Cor

The Stuart post office reached the

Wednesday morning from Dr. Lord,

had undergone a surgical operation
and was doing as well as could be ex
pected. She had the appendix and
200 gallstones removed. Her father

The Ledger.
ATKINSON
Howard Greely, by a recent decision
of the Interior department, retains
the title to a quarter section of land
in Gregory county, S. D., upon which
he had established a squatters right
and one Henry E. Cole afterwards
filed a soldier’s declaratory, the de
partment holding that the squatters
right was good. The many friends of
Howard in this part of the country
are pleased over the decision which
gives him a valuable quarter section
upon which he had establised a home.
There seems to be a feeling among
the members of the different town
ship and school boards throughout
the western part of the county that
the board of supervisors should em
ploy an expert to check up the differ
ent funds and put them on a footing
so that they will know just where
they are at. A good many of them
have not had an accounting for years
and it has been impossible with many
to tell In what financial condition
their districts are in, and we think
the taxpayers of tire county will glad
ly be burdeded by a reasonable amount
to be paid as a fee to an expert
to thoroughly check up every
school district and township in
the county.
n iai^c uutuuci ui me uuaiuuss men
of Atkinson met with a committee
representing the South Fork and the
Green Valley Independent Telephone
companies at the office of Havens &
Stilson, last Tuesday afternoon, to
discuss the advisability of establishing
an Independent telephone exchange
in our city. Dr. McDonald was made
chairman of the meeting and Dell
Akin secretary. The prevailing opin
ion seemed to favor the building of
thelexchange, for the reason that the
several independent country lines
that have built into Atkinson have
no medium of exchange, unless they
contract with the Inter-State Tele
phone Co-, which is a part of the Bell
system, and that they refuse to do.
This forces the business men and
patrons of the different lines to be
inconvenienced with several phones
which is undersirable and expensive.
The following committee was appoint
ed to make further invesigations and
report at some future time fixed by
the chairman, M. Campbell, J. E.
Brook, Will Schultz, W. B. Argan
bright, Dell Akin.—The Graphic.
Danger of a Cold and How to Avoid
Them.
More fatalities have their origin in
or result from a cold than from any
other cause. This fact alone should
make people more careful as there is
ne danger whatever from a cold when
it is properly treated In the beginning.
For many years Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy has been recognized as the
most prompt and effectual medicine
tn use lor this disease. It acts on na
ture’s plan, loosens the cough, relieves
the lungs, opens the secretions and
aids nature in restoring the system to
a healthy condition. Sold by P. C.

A Grim Tragedy

coughs, croup and whooping cough

“The Bridge” Born of Sorrow.
“My poem entitled ‘The Bridge,’"
said Longfellow, “was written In sor
row, which made me feel for the loneli
ness of others. I was a widower at the
time, and I used sometimes to go over
the bridge to Boston evenings to meet
friends and return near midnight by
the same way. The way was silent,
save here and there a belated footstep.
The sea rose or fell among the wooden
piers, and there was a greut furnace on
the Brighton hills whose red light was
reflected by the waves. It was on such
a late, solitary walk that the splr't of
the poem came upon me. The bridge
has been greatly altered, but the place
of It Is the same.”
Spoiled Her Beauty.
Harriet Howard, of 200 W. 34th St.,
New York, at one time had her beau
ty spoiled with skin trouble. She
writes: “I had Salt Rheum or Eczema
for years, but nothing would cure it,
until I used Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.”
A quick and sure healer for cuts, burns
and sores. 25c at P. C. Corrigan’s
drug store.
What m "Hurricane” la.
“Hurricane” is the old Spanish name
for a West Indies cyclone, but It is
used by modern meteorologists to des
ignate a long continued wind of ex
treme violence. In Beaumont’s scale
the different winds are classed as
“light,” “gentle,” “fresh” and “strong”
breezes. The next Is a “stiff” breeze,
then a “strong” wind and then we
strike the “gales.” The "gales” run
through three or four classes, the last
merging Into the “hurricane.”
Greatly in Demand.
Nothing is more in demand than a
medicine which meets modern require
ments for a blood and system cleanser,
such as Dr. King’s New Life Pills.
They are just what you need to cure

WINDS AND DRAFTS.
The Former Are Beneficial, kaf the
Latter Are Dangtroaa.
By a draft Is meant the currents of
nlr in an inclosed space. Our fore
fathers attributed nearly all the evils
that beset them to drafts, and they
would not have slept in uncurtained
beds for anything. Of course their
windows and doors were shaky, and
houses stood far apart, so drafts were
nearly inevitable. But the modern sci
entific world tries to deny drafts alto
gether and calls them winds, which are
harmless and even healthy to a certain
degree.
Any one who cares to find out the
difference between a wind and a draft
can do so in any apartment which has
windows on different sides of the
house. Let him open a window on a
windy day on the side of the house
toward which the wind blows. The air
which comes in is quite harmless if
the person exposed to it be dressed in
warm clothes, and little children may
take the air in a room thus ventilated.
But let him open a window past which
the wind blows, and it will be found
that the air in the room is moved by a
number of currents, all of which strive
to reach the opening. It is the passing
wind which sucks up the air in the
room and draws it out, and this causes
the room to have what is called a
draft
The effect upon sensitive persons is
immediately felt, like the forerunner
of pain to come. A draft will always
be felt as colder than the wind. Very
dangerous drafts are those that are
produced in railway cars by the rapid
motion of the train. It is not wind
that gets into the carriages, but the
air of the car which is sucked out. A
lighted match held to the chink of the
window will prove this, as the flame
will be drawn toward the window, not
blown from it.
