LOOKING AHEAD. Golden Medical
Discovery. 1t doesn't work miracles
but it does what other medicine can't do
and what doctors say can't be done-un-
til they see it done right under their noses
it cures consumption.-Not always to
say that would be an exaggeration, but
in a large majority of cases in advanced
cases which have been given up as hope
less
The Discovery is not called a con-
sumption-cure it is a blood-rnaker 1t
gives energy to the blood-making organs
to create new blood, full of healthy red
corpuscles. This rapid supply of pure,
rich, red blood drives out all diseases that
have their roots in the blood: Consurnp
ton is one of these; scrofula, malaria,
eczema, erysipelas, catarrh-are others.
1t is absurd to doctor them separately as
lung, or skin, or head diseases. They
must be driven out of the blood. You
can rely OH the Golden Medical Dis
covery" to do this every time.
1t is not patent medicine. It is the
perfected result of 80 years, practical ex-
perience by one of the most skillful ply

Mr.. Watson the Populist nominee for
the Presidency, has said to the At
lanta Constitution with unmistaka-
BILE emphasis that Mr.. Sewall, Bryan's
Democratic running mate, must be
pulled down; that he Is in the way and
that unless this Is done separate cleo
toral tickets will be put forward by the
Populists Whether this relates only
to Georgia, or whether Mr.. Watson
speaks by the card for the whole party,
we have no present means of knowing,
but whatever is done in Mr.. Watson's
State regarding the matter will be very
likely to be taken as the keynote by all
the others The ultimatum of Mr.. Wat
son places the Democratic party in a
most unenviable position Whatever it
does in the premises is certain to bring
it reproaches and make it enemies.
Really, the Democracy in this emer-
gency Is entitled to sympathy.

cause the competition Of foreign cheap

it Is infinitely better that the consumer

and as a result have neighbor who

contribute to the community and to

TIE WORST OF TEE FIVE STORMS.

Three Women Drowned In Their Homes.
Everything and Are Now Threatened

PARKERsBURo W. Va, july 30. The
news OF another cloudburst and by far the
most destructive which has occurred In
this state in the last month has reached

was In Calhoun county IN the central part
OF the state in the territory bordering on
Stepr, Yellow and Straight creeks. Tho
olerents broke loose with terrific force,
flooding the entire county with delugo
of wator ten leet deep. The three creeks
swelled to enormous proportions, and
hardly building OF any Kind remains to
mark the course Of the streams.
Three fatalities are reported. Mrs. Woof

In a cir efforts TO save their household ef
feets, were carried away In their own
homes and drowned Mrs Wooiter and
her daughter wero awakened from their
sleep to hear The rush OF the waters and
upon finding their bed surrounded by wa
ter made an attempt to save themselves
from drowning by placing the organ on
top Of the table and taking refuge there
but the waters RAPIDLY rose 90 theiy posi-

Sarah Stephens, who WIS an elderly wom-

On Yellow creek four houses and saw

The scene of this disaster Is IN tho wilds
Of West Virginia, where there are neither

to food the country and until this ceases
IL will be impossible 20 transport anything

were in good circumstances last week are
penniless now. The state has neyor mot
with such calamity before. To estimate
the loss Is impossible, This is the fifth
cloudburst occurring Ia this state during
tho Inst month, each one being worse than
the former Entire reconstruction was
necessary on the Baltimore and Ohio for a
distance of 90 miles. Traffic was resumed
after a suspension Of four days.
Tho Ohio river at this point continues

The track wheels are held In position by
side bars which hinge around the center

The hinging renders the trucks flexible
and provides for the engine a sort of end
less track of moving wheels, which are al
ways smooth, 1t is said that the vibrating
motion commonly impaired TO the loco
motion in high running is done away with
by this device.
Each truck wheel has a large and small
diameter and works on the cog principle,
but friction takes the place of oogs. The
larger rim rests upon the rail, and the
small rim extends outwardly over the tires.

velop a speed of l2O miles an hour
