DRESS WAS BURNING
When Playing With a Companion
a Six. " Old Child Set a
Hay Stack and Her Clothes
on Fire-She Was Incinerated
Before Help Could Reach Her.

Loie, the six-year-old daughter
of Newton Gregory, was burned to
death yesterday at her home on
Grand River about IL miles from
the city.
The little girl was playing with
a companion shortly after dinner
when they decided to build bon
fire. A spark soon ignishtsd the
hay in nearby stack and the
children attempted 10 extinguish
the blaze. In doing SO Loie's
dress caught fire and her mother,
being attracted by her frantic
screams, ran,to ner babe's assist
ance. The crazed child ran as fast
as she could in an opposite direc-
ton until she fell. When Mrs.
Gregory reached her the little
child's clothes were nearly totally
burned and the poor little girl lay,
the charred and baked flesh about
her body and limbs quiverlng,
moaning in awful agony. Death
soon relieved her terrible suffering.
Newton Gregory, the child's
father, is a well known and re-
spected farmer, who comes TO Vi
nita nearly every Saturday to
trade. Little Loie came frequent
lp with her father and was known
to nearly every store-keeper and
clerk in town She was noticea-
BILE because Of her child-like beauty
and grace and it was a delight to
pet the little one in order to see
her large, dark eyes dance in that
glorious way peculiar to round
faced, pretty children. Loie was
dark and large for her age, with
clear, olive coloring, while her
smooth black hair, hanging in
short braids, swept back from a
brow calm with all the loyeliness
of childhood and the domestic af-
feolion Of her relatives.
Mrs. Gregory is ill from the
shocking sight Of seeing her pet
running from her maternal assiet-
ance and causing the burning
clothing to burn more 6ereely be-
cause of the wind generated by her
running.

ory that in these days of haste and hurry
the stomach is the common breeding
place of disease. These cures also prove
the soundness of DIR. Pierce's reasoning
that diseases which originate in the
stomach must be cured through the

cine for the stomach and other organs Of
digestion and nutrition. When the
stomach is healthy the blood made in
the stomach is healthy, and sufficient in
quantity to nourish the nerves and
strengthen the system to resist or throw
off disease. Nature develops life, sus-
tains life and preserves life by nourish-
ment. Vital failure comes when the
body is starved either from lack Of food
or the inability Of the digestive and uu-
tritive organs to extract the nounshment
from the food taken into the stomach.
"Golden Medical Discovery" takes the
obstacles from Natures way so that she
can sustain life by her own methods.
