Be cure to caution your boys about the
big. fre crackers on the Fourth, or some
Of them may come home minus fingers
and thumbs. One of the large fire
crackers if held in the hand when it ex-
plodes will surely cause the amputation
of several fingers or in some cases the
whole hand. The list of Fourth Of July
accidents in the past has shown this, and
in many cities the sale OF the large fire
crackers is strictly forbidden under a
severe penalty. Parents should remem-
Der that the fire crackers are not what
they we're when they were boys. The
fire crackers Of to-day are made with
dynamite or nitro-glycerine and are very
powerful.

Attention is called to the advertise.
ment in another column OF the Brown
Chemical Co. Of Saint Paul. The "Gold-
en- Oil" mentioned in the advertisement
is one Of the most potent remedies for
rheumatism, we believe, that was ever
discovered. The senior editor of the
Graphic can testify to this fact, and does
it voluntarily and freely For several
months. as our friends know, we suffered
the torments of hell with sciatic rheu-
matism, and when in St. Paul recently a
friend advised us to try "Golden Oil. :"
Suffering the intense pain we did. we
we're willing to try anything, and there
upon we bought bottle of the Golden
Oil" and box of DR.. Browns rheumatic
tablets. On our return home from the
Twin Cities we used the oil and tablets
freely, and to-day we are entirely free
from sciatic pains. We heartily recon-
mend Golden Oil to anyone suffering
with rheumatism. and believe, from our
own experience, that it will cure the
most stubborn case at least, we know 1t
will give the sufferer relief, and that is
boon to be coveted and priced.
