A FATAL ACCIDENT.

A fatal shooting occurred at Fox
Lake the first of the week. It was
probably accidental in character
but things looked dark for little
while. Two men were out hunting
on the lake and had been out all the
morning. the one on the shore and
his companion in boat out on the
lake, when about noon the man on
shore, Susen bv name, called to his
companion to come in aud quit for
the day and he started to do so.
When nearly in shore he heard a
shot fired in the direction of his
companion and supposed that he
was shooting at a mark on his way
to neighbor S house, so he paid no
attention to it and went home. The
lake is but little way from Ole
Stranberg's house and the body
was first discovered by his little
son, four years old, who claimed he
saw the gun discharged and the
man fall, but his story was not be-
lieved and the body lay on the road
where it had fallen, until next
morning, when the little boy
dragged his father down to look at
it. Mr.. Stranberg Immediately
notified the authorities and Coro.

cided that the shooting was acct.

on the gun showing that the latter
had been discharged by his hit

The success of DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription in the cure of diseases pc
cuhar to women, is beyond comparison
greater than that of any other medicine
prepared especially for woman's use. 1t
is not cure-all but scientific prepara-
ton. the prescription of an eminent
living physician, still in active practice
and who, assisted by his staff of nearly
a score of trained physicians, treats and
cures thousands of women every year.
g Favorite Prescription - has an invigor-
ating and vitalizing power peculiar to
itself and a phenomenal control of dis
eases which attack the delicate organs of
woman. 1t permanently cures backache,
bearing down pains, liberation, infam-
nation and like ills by curing their
cause. 1t dries up the drains, puts out
the fever fire of inflammation and cures
the corroding ulcer. 1t makes marriage
a happiness and motherhood blessing,
by giving to women such an abundant
vitality that the baby blossoms into life
as sweetly, simply and naturally as a
flower. Sick women are invited to con-
suit DIR. Pierce by letter free of charge
