Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty Of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
SCOTS Observation-Disclosures.
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

Injured by Explosion of Cann0
Cracker. Thumb Torn Off.

While assisting in moving E. Tur-
ner's stock from his store on, Main
street some small boys secured bunch
of fire crackers and one of them, Sof
the kind known as a cannon cracker,
fell into the hands of young son Sf
William Dunn. The little fellow afid
his sister Annie, aged seven. lit the
thing on. Wednesday evening and
dropped it into an empty keg. It did
not explode Immediately and the little
girl reached into the keg to get III.
The cracker exploded in her hand
with such force as to tear the thumb
off. The bone was broken and in fact
only a shred of SIX in held the injured
member. The palm Of the hand was
badly lacerated. DR.. Dochterman
was called and sewed the thumb on,
twenty stitches being necessary to hold
it in place. Every effort will be
made to save the hand, but as blood
poison frequently results from the
deposit of powder in such woupdsit
is feared that the thumb, and perhaps
the whole hand may have to be am
putated. The boy was also hurt
though not seriously. Such things as
this should cause merchants to aband-
on the sale of fire. crackers and make
parents forbid their purchase. ~.

in his brothers left lung. The brothers
settled on land west of the Missouri
river and south of Stanley last spring
and have had bad luck. Ranchmen,
who look upon the homesteader as an
enemy, burned part of their feed and
left them only little hay. This they
divided. On the day Of the shooting
cattle owned by Theodore got into
Willis hay and he sent a dog after
them. Theodore got his rifle and ran
out to the stack and Will, fearing he
would shoot his dog, went out Also
Harsh words passed and the elder
brother fred three times with the re-
suit stated. 1t is claimed that Theo-
dore has acted strangely for several
months and is believed to be insane.
Mr. Geo. E. Poole, father of the
boys, called at our Office yesterday.
He feels badly over the affair but ex-
pressed a hope that Will would re-
cover. He says his SONS have always
gotten along we'll and is of the opinion
that the eldest sons mind was un-
balanced when he shot his brother.
Mr.. Poole, ST. is a fine old man and
one of our most respected citizens.
We sympathize with the relatives and
hope that the erring son will be given
