Every few days the papers tell of some
man found dead. Many times the cause is
accidental poisoning because among several
medicine bottles the wrong was taken-the
one containing deadly poison. If people
only really understood disease this sort OF
thing would never happen.
Much of the sickness in the world b
eaceable to some disorder of the digestive
organs, or to some impurity in the blood.
Nine-tenths of all the illness in the world
can be cured by purifying and enriching the
blood, and restoring perfect digestion. The
one sole and infallible medicine for this
purpose il DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. It can be implicitly relied upon.
There is no need having dozen medicine
bottles in the house. One is enough. There
is no need of using poisons at all. The
"Golden Medical Discovery" is the most
effective medicine ever prepared, and there
is rot an atom of poison in a million bottles
of it. If YOU will be guided by Dr.. Pierce's
Common Sense Medical Adviser, and use
only Dr.. Pierce's Medicines, you will ii.
ways be safe.

Some time since we mentioned the &C
cident to VIM. Conway, who fell from a
box car at New Vienna, and dislocated
his neck. A two hundred pound weight
was used to pull the vertebra into place.

successful as at first reported, and a Sec
ond operation was necessary. dis.
patch from Chillicothe says:
A heroic operation has been performed
upon VIM. Conway, who, for the past
month, has been completely paralyzed
because of dislocated neck. An attempt
to press the vertebra back into place
had proved futile, so the neck was cut
open directly over the fifth cervical yer.
zebra, and it was found to be fractured
and resting upon the spinal cord. The
bone was chiseled away until the spinal
cord was exposed and all pressure re
moved. The incision was then closed,
and Conway rallied nicely. It is be-,
lieved that he will now recover com
pletely. The case is one of the most re.
markable in local surgical history.
