Another Epiden-
GRIP HAS MADE ITS APPEAR
ANCE AGAIN.
A SUCCESSFUL METHOD OF WARDING
ING 1T FROM THE SYSTEM.

Grip has made its appearance this
spring in a larger number of cases than
for several years past. While it is true
that in most cases an attack of this
disease leaves the victim in shattered
health and often lays the foundation
for more serious affection, its after
effects can be driven out,as the follow
ing interview will show:
can attack of the grip left me in
most miserable condition." said Mrs
M. J. Conner, of No. 1876 Brook street,
Scranton, Pa, ''and I did not recover
my health for long while afterward.
Then when everything else had failed
to help me, took DR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and they cured
me. My system was in dreadful con-
dition. Even to walk at all briskly on
a level made me short of breath, and
going up hill distressed me terribly.
l had night sweats, my feet were al
ways cold and itched or prickled
enough to make me almost crazy some
times. And my head ached over my
eyes. could not sleep and my heart
beat like blows of hammer. In the
morning my hands and arms would feel
numb. was also subject to fainting
spells and with it all 1 was perfectly
miserable.
81 saw DR. Williams Pink Pills men,
toned in one of the papers so l got
some at the South Side Pharmacy.
The first box helped me and by the
time had taken three boxes all the
unpleasant symptoms were gone and I
was as well again as 1 was before the
attack of the grip"
The fact that DR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People can cure when the
trouble is so deeply seated as it was in
Mrs Corners case makes it doubly GER
tain that they can also tone up the sys-
TEN, enrich the blood and make an at
tack of the grip impossible. DR. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People are
sold by all dealers, or sent postpaid on
receipt Of price, fifty cents a box: six
boxes for two dollars and half, by
addressing DR. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y. Be sure and get
the genuine. Substitutes never cured
anybody. Send for free booklet of
medical advise.

HAPPY CELEBRATION,

A HAPPY CELEBRATION.

brated the 18th anniversary of their
marriage on Monday evening. Des-
over so friends and relat ives were pres
emit. The new barn just completed,

which many couples participated.
Charles Terrill of New Milford furnish
ed the music, and platform hand

with evergreens and bunting and then
draperies drawn to one side in 'front.'

woodwork of the interior of the barn
was completely covered with ever
greens, bunting and flags, and with
many Japanese lanterns suspended
from the ceiling, the effect was charm

sides of the hall, and the floor was
thoroughly waxed for dancing. Re-

were married in Florida Is years ago,
they failed to receive marriage GER

speech was followed by a witty and elC-
quent response on Mr. Prindle's part.

was a loyal daughter, a loving sister
and will be greatly missed in the
home. Those who knew Carrie best
loved her most. AS the end drew
near she often spoke Of death, but
always without feal. She saw her
Savior waiting beside the river to re-
ceive her. She said it "would lie a IL
we'll with her Them Her mother
preceded her to the better land Oct.

The Throat and Tonails.

A simple gargle for a ore throat
may be made by adding fifteen drops
OF refined carbolic acid to a quart of
water. Remember to shake thorough
ly before using-otherwise it will be
useless-and gargle four or five times a
day. In case of swollen tonsils a tea
spoonful of powdered tanEin dissolved
in a tumbler of water forms an excel
lent gargle, which should be used ev-
cry two hours. A gargle Of perman-
ganate of potash, not too strong, is al
so excellent for s in cases of mild
sore throat.

THE NATIONAL HOLIDAY
Quite a Few Surrounding Towns
Will Celebrate the National
Holiday in Royal Style.

Holiday in Royal Style.
The people.of..Mi.chell will have an
opportunity this year to spend their
Fourth Of July wherever their fancy
or inclination dictates. There will
be no celebration at home, but sur
rounding towns have in many in
stances provided some excellent at
fractions and these will get a fair
share of Mitchell's population.
1t is the intention of practically all
the business men in the city to close
their stores during the entire day,
which will give the overworked clerks
and the proprietors themselves an
opportunity to take a day Of rest and
recuperation = from their business
cares at least.
Woonsocket will celebrate the nat
ional holiday with all manner of
sports. Mitchell's ball team will go
up to play against the Howard aggre-
cation for a purse Of 800. Congress
man Martin will deliver the grafton
Of the day.
Chamberlain has provided an at
tractive program for all who 90 to
the Missouri river town. The cele-
bration will be held on the island
across the river.
Down at Armour the citizens have
arranged for the eagle to scream in
bis most approved style.
Parkston never does anything by
halves along this line and aside from
the usual sports Senator Gamble will
deliver the grafton.
The Epwor5h Assembly at Canton
will make the national holiday a
special feature Of the two weeks
session. Rev. J. N. Driver, IF CHI
cago, will deliver the principal ora
ton of the day.
Our good friends out at Plankinton
will offer something attractlve in the
way Of sports. and Plankinton and
Chamberlain will play a game Of ball
in the afternoon. Rev. Mr.. Wizard,
Of Huron, will deliver the grafton.
Spencer, over on the Omaha road,
will celebrate in true style, which will
consist Of a full program Of theusual
sports and Senator E. L. Abel, of
Bridgewater, has been secured to de-
liver the address.
Sioux Falls will doubtless secure a
good many people from Mitchell on
the Fourth, as the train service is
exceptionally good 1t. will be the
closing day of the midsummer car
nival.
These are some of the places in the
Immediate vicinity where Mitchell
people can find a place to let 60 Of the
enthusiasm that has been pent up FOL
the past year. No doubt the groves
along the banks Of the Jim river viii
be an attractive place for many o.
the people who stay at home on the
national holiday, and they will affo1t
a good place for the day to be spent
in comparative quiet.
