Nlnaimo, b. c., Feb. ia specia
from Juneau, Alaska, Feb. II, confirm
the news Of the loss of the Clara Ne
vada, and says: The u of the dis
aster was doubtless the explosion of
her boilers. OF the so people on board
none are believed to have been saved.
The Clara Nevada was a tramp steam
er, and as she was plying between Uni
ted States ports she did not file her
passenger list with the custom house
officers. 1t is thought that she carried
about 20 passengers, of whom two or
three were women. Several were bound
for Juneau and the others for Seattle.
A thrill of terror S experienced when a
br,ssy cough of Group sounds through the
house at night. But the terror soon changes
to relief after One Minute Cough Cure has
lee administered Safe and harmless for
children. G. II. Hagenbuch.

Bottled Up!

Whether in the form of pill powder
or liquid, the doctors prescription for
blood diseases is always the same
mercury or potash. These drugs bottle
up the poison and dry it up in the
system, but they also dry up the marrow
in the bones at the same time.
The suppleness and elasticity of the
joints give way to a stiffness, the rack
ing pains of rheumatism. The form
gradually bends, the bones ache, while
decrepitude and helplessness prema-
turely take possession of the body, and
it is but a short step to a pair of
crutches. Then comes falling of
the hair and decay of the bones,-a con-
dition truly horrible.
