Food undigested is poison. Di-
gested, it is life and strength.
Millions of us suffer from indiges

We think it is something else. Even
doctors often mistake the symp-
toms.
Pale, thin people, who are over
worked, who need strength, who
who seem in want of proper food,
should take Shaker Digestive Cor
dial. 1t is astonishing what food
will do when properly digested.
1t will make you strong, revive
you, refresh you, sustain you, make
you fat, restore your color, make
muscle, brain fibre, courage, endur-

to throw of disease and keep you
healthy and happy.

The need OF new depot in our VII
lage is daily demonstrated. but III the
spring OF the year it is more forclably
noticeable than at any other period. The
depot now consists of bnt one waiting
room, and this, in the spring when the
woods boys are leaving For their hoHes'
is daily taxed to it's utmost capacity.
Ladies' waiting to take trains are forced
to bear the nngentemanIy remarks OF
some of the ruffians who are filled up
with whiskey. Such state is OF daily
occurrence in our village and it should DE-
brought to bear upon the North Western
officials and see if they would not bHlld
new depot or else have two waiting
rooms to say the least. The Old Lake
Shore officials were presented with Pc
titions asking for Il new depot, but since
the North Western has had charge OF the
line no remonstrance was ever presented
them Suppose some OF our citizens
should take this matter up and present
petition if nothing more. Certainty 1t
would do no harm.

A Brave Soldier, An Atfectionafe Husband, A
Kind and Lndsilgent Father, Has Passed to
the Great Beyond.

4 few moments before six O'Clock Sat
ul4lay morning, Frank Quinn breathed
his last He had been suffering for ten
days with very severe attack OF pneu-
monia and bronchites, and his recovery
was considered doubtful, still the end
was not looked for 80 soon. and When it
suddenly came, it fell upon his family
and friends with crushing severity. AZ
though the deceased had lived in Eagle
River but q few years, by his upright
and honest dealings with men. his faith
fitness and devotion to whatever he
considered his duty, he had gained the
confidence and respect Of all who knew
him.
Frank was very patriotic, and took
great pride in national holiday celebra-
tons All will remember what great
interest he took in the celebration here
last Decoration Day. 1t was by his I'M
firing efforts that a very complete cele-
bration was had, and by his hands, as
sisted by the band OF little girls he had
drilled, that sweet flowers were for the
| first time strewn on the graves OF his
deceased comrades at our cemetaly.
Little was it thought then, that ere an
other Decoration Day arrived, he too
would have Joined his silent comrades,
and that otner hands would so soonlay
sweet flowers upon his grave. He leaves
a wife and two children, besides relatives
to mourn his death.
The deceased was born in Providence,
Rhode Island, April 18th, 1S47. When
he was I Z years old he enlisted in Co. *,
5lst n Y. Infantry, at Troy, n. T., Tor
three years. At the close of the war, he
was honorably discharged at Hart's Is
land, n. Y. In 1866 he enlisted in the
Regular Army and served three years
On January 25th, 1869, two days after
his first term nf enlistment had expired
he again enlisted in the regular service IL
the 25th u. S. Infantry, and served two
years and seven months. During the
civil war he was in many active engage
ments, and was taken prisoner in Sep
! tembpr, 1864, and with 10000 Other
prisoners OF war, he was sent to th
peritentary prison at Salisbury, n Z
On Feb. 25th, 1865, Mr.. Quinn wa
paroled, and March End, following. h
was exchanged and sent to Harris Is
land.
The funeral services will be held at hi
; old home in Clintonville, tomorrow
morning. The remains will be takel
there to-day, and it is expected that, be
, sides relatives, several OF his intimat
friends from here will accompany the re
mains to Clintonville and tOhi last rest
ing place.
During the past year Mr.. Quinn ha
been Deputy County Clerk OF Villas Coul
ty. and a more faithful and accomodad
ing officer could not be found. A larg
;, number of flowers, for the funeral, hav
been sent for by Villas county Officers
Mr.. Quinn was a Mason and the funeri
services will be conducted under til
auspices OF that lodge.

was a decided success. The stage WAS

ton and the hall was crowded to it's full
capacity, even standing room WAS
scarce. Prof. Mnrehan's opening ad-
dress was well chosen and received with
great applause. All the exercises went
off without the usual hitch, showing a
great amount Of patient drilling on the
part of the teachers. The one-act farce
was the feature of the evening and was
received with roars OF laughter, well
mixed with applause. All the actors did
so well that one can hardly make special
mention OF any. County Superintend-
ent Higgins speech was very patriotic
and remarkably non-partizan. He
graphically portrayed the heroism ol
