CONSUMPTION CURED
AN ABSOLUTE REMEDY FOR ALL
PULMONARY COMPLAINTS.

T. A. slocum offers to Send Two Bot
ties Free Of His Remedy to Cure
Consumption and All Lung Troublei
An Elixir Of Life.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan
thropic or carry more joy in its wake than
the offer of T. A. Slocum, M. O., of 18s
Pear. street, New York. Perfectly conf.
dent that he has an absolute remedy fol
ary complaints, he offers through this pa
per to send two bottles free to any reader
who is suffering from lung trouble or cDn-
sumption, also loss of flesh and all condi-
tions of wasting. He invites those desir-
GUS of obtaining this remedy to send their
express and postottice address, and to re-
ceive in return the two bottles free, which
will arrest the approach of death. Al
ready this remedy, by it's timely use, has
permanently cured thousands Of cases
which were given up, and death was looked
upon as an early visitor.
knowing his remedy as he does, and be-
ing SO proof-positive Of it's benekcent re-
suits, DR.. SlOcum considers it his religious
duty, duty which he owes to humanity,
to donate his infallible remedy where 1t
will assault the enemy in its cidatel, and,
by its inherent potency, stay the current
of dissolution, bringing joy to homes over
which the shadow OF the grave has been
gradually growing more strongly defined,
causing fond hearts to grievs. The cheap
ness Of the remedy-ofered freely-apart
from it's inherent strength, is enough to
commend it, and more SO is the perfect
confidence Of the great chemist making the
offer, who holds out life to those already
becoming emaciated, and says: "Be
cured"
The invitation is certainly worthy of the
consideration of the afflicted, who for
years, have been taking nauseous nostrums
without effect; who have ostracised them
selves from home and friends to live in
phere is more congenial to weakened lungs,
and who have fought against death with
all the weapons and strength in their
hands. There will be no mistake in send
ing for these free bottles-the mistake Will
be in passing the invitation by.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement. and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the wo.ld's best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid

remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas

beneficial properties of a perfect lax

dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

Gomez Knows His Business.

1t does not become American newspa-
pers to object to the way in which Cen
eral Gomez is conducting his campaign.
1t is exactly the kind of campaign made
by General Washington in our Revolu-
tionary war. 1t drew ON him the oppo-
sition of men who wished to make a
campaign Of aggression, but General
Washington policy was vindicated by
the capture of CORVALLIS at Yorktown
and the success of the patriot army after

DRIVEN FROM THE CITADEL.

The warmth of spring and summer may
do much to relax the muscular system and
make many feel much more comfortable,
but there is this about the old enemy
rheumatism, that when he once takes
hold, he tries to hold the citadel at all sea-
sons of the year. But whether this arch
or the nerves, he is such an enemy to
human happiness that he must be driven
out of any stronghold. 1t was planned
long ago to do this, and St. Jacobs Oil as
knight in battle has scored wonderful vic
tories. At all times he Is ready to over
come and conquer this fiend of pain, and
does it as surely and certainly as knights
of old extirpated the saracen. 80 no one
should be deceived by the mild weather of
spring to trifie with it either in chronic or
transient form Use the great remedy for
pain and get rid OF it at once and for all.

q very common cause of nervousness, especially

BIG DEAL IN DIRT
The Youngstown Mine Falls
Into New Hands.
G. n. Foote Purchases Six Hundred d
Acres OF Mineral Land. inciud-
ing that Property.

One OF the largest mining deels that
ever occurred 10 tho Crystal Falls field
and probably the most important trans
action from the standpoint OF the vel.
iare OF this village that has ever become
part OF local history. was consum-
mated at Chicago early this week. The
purchase includes about six hundred
acres OF land, but the portion OF the deal
that is important to this community Is
the Youngstown mine.
The deal was made between Messrs.
Theodore Lanning, representing the
heirs OF Il. w. Nelson. ct al, and Chas
III. Foote, the general manager oi the
Illinois Steel company's blast furnace
department, the former deciding to the
latter approximately six hundred acres
OF land, including three contiguous
iorties, on one OF which is located the
Youngstown mine. The remainder ol
the land included in the purchase il
located In the Fence river mineral tract
The acquisition by Mr.. Foote, who il
closely allied to one OF the largest con.
sumcrs in the United States. oI this
property il n matter OF no mean i'm
portance to Crystal Falls. The indica'
tions on the face Of the deal are that the
mine will be operated at an early date
While no definite arrangements for the
operation OF the property have yet beer
made, il is not probable that n concern
like that in possession OF the mine has
purchased il for an extrnvagant orna'
ment with the mere desire to pay taxes
thereon without returns.
The product oI this mine is good. II
Is neither extremely high in iron nor low
in phosphorus, but the heavy content ol
manganese in it's ore renders il especially
valuable in a furnace mixture for spiegc
pig. The manganese content in one por
tion OF the mine is ten per cent
The purchasers OF the property are
now In correspondence with G. /. Rob
erts in regard to the operation OF the
Youngstown, and il this course is,lecided
upon that gentleman will undoubtedly
supcrintend the operation. His Ions
service at the property during its for
mer activity will render his services
valuable.
There Is sufficient assurance 10 war
rant the belief that the Youngstown Ii

idleness. Actively wrought, II could give
place to from two hundred to three hun

The deviation OF the course OF the
Mchigamme river ut the scene OF the

operations ON the new channel having

the week by hitch in the arrangements,
financial or otherwise, between the con-
tractors and those FOR whom the work Is
being performed.
The DIAMOND DRILL has attempted to
CLEAN the facts in relation to the parties
connected with this work, but great
reticence is manifested by those in local
charge. There is no reasonable doubt,
however, judging from facts obtained
from authentic sources, that the work
is being performed by Messrs. Pcppard
