OLD STONE TABLET FOUND.
Relic nenrs Date Of 1862 nnd If Gen,
uine Will Prove of'Great
Historic Interest.

According to the Runic characters on
stone tablet found in Minnesota
swamp, adventurous Norscmen pene-
trated the American continent as far as
Minnesota 13O years before Columbus
planted the banner of CASTLE on the
shore Of San Salvador.
1t is likely that the tablet with this
history y-mal1ing inscription will soon
become the property Of Northwestern
university at Evanston, III. Prof.
George Curme, Of the German depart
nent of the college, has secured copy
of the inscription, and is impressed
with the idea that it is a genuine his
torical treasure.
The stone was found by Norwegian
laborers near Kensington, Mimi, and
bears the date 1862. Historians who
have heard of the strange writings on
the tablet are intensely interested in
the outcome of the present investiga-
ton.
DR.. Henry Wade Rogers, president of
the university, said to-day that the au-
thenticity OF the inscription had not
been proved, but that it would be fully
determined in time. If the relic proves
to be genuine it will doubtless become
the property of the university.

About one month ago my child which
is fifteen months old, had an attack of
diarrh@a accompanied by vomiting. l
gave it such remedies as are usually
given in such cases, but as nothing gave
relief, we sent for physician and it
was under his care for week. At this
time tho child had been sick for about
ten days and was having about twenty
five operations of the bowels every
twelve hours, and we were convinced
that unless it soon obtained relief it
would not live. Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhua Remedy was re.
commended, and decided to try it. l
