WHERE THE DANGER LIES
The Mysterious and Sudden Ending Of So

The Mysterious and Sudden Ending Of So
Many Lives Fully Accounted For.
The real danger from Grippe" is in its after
effects. Nine-tenths of all deaths resulting are
from pneumonia What is pneumonia? 1t is a
sudden stoppage and filling up of the lungs.
Thick. heavy poisonous mucous gets into the
alr-cels and prevents breathing They clog up
quickly and death ensues The only salvation
is to keep the lungs working and thus throw off
this terrible mucous. There is only one way in
which this can be done and that is by stimulat:
ing them Under the influence of a proper
amount of pure whiskey. the lungs draw in deep,
full breaths and throw out the poisonous air,
each time it is exhaled.
But while this is true and whiskey has saved
more lives than any other known remedy, if it
is not pure whiskey 1t is liable to have a bad
effect. If it contains fusel oil. headache or a
foul tongue will be the result. On the other
hand, when an absolutely pure whiskey like
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is used, no ill effects
can by any possibility follow. Prof. Henry A.
Mott says: "The purity of Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey (as simple, analytical tests will read
lily convince) is absolute and should recommend
it to the highest public favor" To all, we un-
hesitatingly say, insist upon having Duffy's

Constitutional Catarrh,

No single disease has entailed more suffering
or hastened the breaking up of the constitu-
tion than Catarrh. The sense of smell, of
taste, of sight, of hearing. the human voice,
the mind-one or more and sometimes all, yield
to itsdestructive influence The poison it dis
tributes throughout the system attacks every
vital force and breaks up the most robust of
constitutions. Ignored, because but little un-
derstood by most physicians, impOtently as
sailed by quacks and charatans those suffer
ing from it have little hope to be relieved of it
this side of the grave. IL is time then, that the
popular treatment of this terrible disease by
remedies within the reach of all passed into
hands at once competent and trustworthy. The
new and hitherto untried method adopted by
DIR. Sanford in the preparation of his RADICAL
CURE has won the hearty approval of thou
sands. 1t is instantaneous in affording relief
in all head colds, sneezng, snuffiing and OBJ
structed breathing, and rapidly removes the
most oppressive symptoms, clearing the head,
sweetening the breath, restoring the senses of
smell, taste and hearing, and neutralizing the
constitutional tendency of the disease toward
the lungs, liver and kidneys.
SANFORD'S RADICAL CURE consists of one
bottle of the RADICAL CURE, one box Ca

Girl of IA Voyages Alone From Nebraska
TO Pittsburg.

Lizzie Burrows, aged IA, arrived from
Sherry county, Nebraska, yesterday morn
ing, having made her first trip on a railroad
alone. She had been visiting married sister
in Nebraska. Her father had come East a
few months ago, and was stopping with
another married daughter, Mrs. Jacob
Reno, at Redman Mills, about two miles
beyond the city limits on the Southside
The daughter Lizzie was sent for, and ar
rived yesterday morning, and while she had
written instructions of how to 90, she had no
idea what direction to take to find her rela-
tives when she got here.
Inspector McAleese sent Detective Robin

not seen her since babyhood, and the father
not being present, the detective had to in
troduce the two sisters, as neither knew the

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
CoALDALE. Pa, April 13.-Our town is
now undergoing a whisky revival. For
several years no license has prevailed here,
and comparative order and quiet ruled.
Blu. since the 1st of the month, when the
bar was opened according to law, the in
habitants have celebrated the joyful occa-
sion by general drunk. On Tuesday night
all was uproar. On Wednesday the jubilee
continued, and several citizens were put in
the lookup.
On Thursday night the people were
startled BY a tremendous report. Every
body ran out to see what was the cause. 1t
was not long until it was ascertained that
the end of the lookup was blown out. Some
person had attempted to destroy the borough
prison with dynamite. The landlord has
been utterly powerless to prevent the inhab-
itants from getting his whisky. One day he
shut the bar, but it would not do. A crowd
got hold of him and compelled him to open
up again. There were seven fights last even
ing, and altogether it is reign of lawless-
ness and disorder. The landlord is already
tired of the business here and will sell out
as soon as he gets buyer. He wants to re-
turn to his home in England.

health and strength when they could really be
assured that there is more nourishment in one
bottle of Kleins Silver Age than in a carload
of the stuff they call ''invigorators." 1t is too.

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
Absolute Proof of Success

Is the fact that the hundreds of testimonials
of cures made by the specialists of the Catarrh
and Dyspepsia Institute at No. 1913 Penn ave-
nue., and which have been published in this
paper, have not only contained the residence
but the full name AS SIGNED BY THE PA
TENT. thus proving their genuineness. To
say that physician can cure disease is one
thing and to prove that he has cured it is an
other 1t they have the means to cure the dis
eases of their speciality and thus prove this
fact by referring you to hundreds whom they
have cured in your own city and at your own
door, what better evidence can they give? The
physicians of this institution are specialists in
the true sense of the term, as no patients are
received for treatment except those suffering
from catsrrh, dyspepsia or diseases of women.
