Fourteen Days In a Tomb.

PHOENIX, Ariz., July Thames
Stevens, the imprisoned miner, was res
cued from the Mammoth mine this
morning, after an imprisonment of IA
days. Att o'clock this morning the
miners, broke into the drift where Stew
ems had been confined.
Stevens is fearfully emaciated, and
has lost fully 20 pounds during his con-
finement, but his mind is clear. He
stated that he had thoughts of suicide
toward the end of his fearful wait. He
had eaten his lunch before the cavern
came, and has since had nothing to eat.
Of water he had gallon, which was
consumed in three DAYS. His candles
lasted two days, during which he man
aged to open up a connection through
the filled-in stope, thus securing purer
air.
In the attempt to rescue him, a shaft
was sunk 127 feet through solid granite
in 13 days.
What use is there in eating when food
does you no good-in fact, when it does
you more harm than good, for such Is
the case if it is not digested?
If you have loathing for food there
is no use of forcing 1t down, tor it will
not be digested. You must restore the
digestive organs to their natural strength
and cause the food to be digested, when
an appetite will come, and with it a re-
lish for food.
The tired, languid feeling will give
place to vigor and energy then you will
put flesh on your bones and become
strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
as made by the Mount Lebanon Shakers
contains food already !digested and is
digester of foods as well. Its action is
prompt and Its effects permanent.
