A DISPLACED BODY.
Possibility of James Russell Having
Revived After Burial.

Possibility of James Russell Having
Revived After Burial.
Some days ago the workmen at the
City Cemetery were removing the coffin
containing the remains of James Russell
from the pauper plat to a lot recently
released. and on opening the lid 1t was
found that the body, or skeleton, lay
partly on one side.
One theory in connection with the cir
cumstance is that the deceased may have
been alive when buried, in 1887, although
it is claimed that partial displacements of
bodies may be accounted for in other
ways.
Russell died of pneumonia, and at that
time he was supposed to be pauper, but
as heretofore told in the RECORD UNION
the discovery was subsequently made
that he had several thousand dollars on
deposit.
Recently the Superior Court made an
order authorizing the administrator of
the estate 10 purchase a burial lot and
erect monument over the grave.

BABY'S LIFE IN THE BALANCE.

fanfum that is worth More Than all the
Medicines in the WorId-Lactated Food
Now infant lives tremble in the bal
ance. Heat, and food that fails to nour.
ish. cause cholera infantum and the ex
hausting diarrhoea that carries off sc
many babies in July and August. Other
deaths shrink to insignifcance at this
season beside the fearful returns of infant
mortality under > years.
Where mothers milk is defective or in
sufficient in nourshing quality, lactated
food best supplies the need; for lactated
food most closely resembles mother s
milk. The basis is sugar of milk in both
cases.
Whenever baby's weight fails to show
a steady increase the nutrition is for
some reason imperfect. Lactated food
at these times should be used eirher al
together or to supplement the natural
milk. In all such cases there results a
rapid gain in weight and indications on
every hand of a healthier, hvelier, more
hearty existence.
The efficacy and nutritive quality of
lactated food is today acknowledged by
every one.
AS preventive of cholera infantum it
is worth more than all the medicines in
the world.
AS strength-giver to growing infants
nothing can compare with it AS food
that is easy to procure and prepare, and
is liked by the little one themselves, too
much cannot be said for it
1t has saved the lives of thousands of
infants within the last few years. 1t has
been the food of hundreds of babies who
have never been sick. From Mrs. Ed
ward Newcom of Logansport, Ind,
the following letter was received:
Our baby had to use artificial food on
account of no nurse We tried several
different kinds of infant foods, but none
agreed with him until we commenced the
use of lactated food. Now he is perfectly
healthy. We are still using the food and
recommend it to all our friends
This is the experience of hundreds of
mothers in this vicinity and will be the
experience OF hundreds more.

The German army has trained war dogs.
On the march each dog is led by his mas

his back Dogs Of a dark color are pre-
ferred, because they are loss visible to the
enemy. The training is pursued on the
general principle that the dog would be
foe unnOciced and to give distinct warning
of hostile approach without bringing it
self into notice. For instance, Ia the Ger
man training process, some of the soldiers
