Dug Into a VOLTS Den.

An Oklahoman named Lawson had
an unpleasant experience while visiting
his brother-in-law, Milo Blodgett, who
lives near Adobe Walls in the Texas
panhandle. Lawson went wolf-hunt-
ing alone. Next day his horse was
found saddled but without a bride.
Blodgett summoned about thirty neigh
bors and began searching for Lawson,
who was located after nearly days
hunt. His feet were sticking from the
top of wolf den and about three feet
of dirt rested on his body. Lawson
was so fastened that he could not ex-
tricate himself
He had dug down in the wolf den
about five feet on a slant in a manner
something like the entrance to a dug
out. then lay down in his trench to
reach in after some coyote pups. He
caught one and threw it out and it is
supposed that this frightened his horse,
which was tied to- a bunch of bear
grass near the hole The horse, making
a lunge, caused the banks to cave, the
dirt falling on the PROSTATE body of
the man, covering~his body and head
The dirt caught him with his arms
stretched out in front so he could not
use them to much advantage, but he
managed to work his hands and shove
the dirt down the hole until his head
was uncovered and he could get air
from the top. He lay in this position
from 5. O'Clock Thursday afternoon till
10, o'clock Sunday morning.-Kansas

SEVERE TEST OF A BLOOD REM

Or. Williams Pink Pills Danish Pain
and Inflammation and Avert Peril
From the Vital Organs.

.
Brysipelas or st. Anthony's fire is 9
most uncomfortable disease on ac
count of the burning pain and the dis
fgurement and is attended always by
the danger of involving vital organs.
The case which follows will be read
with great interest by all sufferers
as 1t affected the whole body, and re
fused to yield to the remedies pre-
scribed by the physician employed
The victim, Mrs. Ida A. Goliath, OF

aged when she began the course Of
treatment which led to her recovery.
"In June of 1903" she says, 81
WAS taken i'll with what at first ap-
peared to be a fever. I sent for a
physician who said was threatened
with dangerous and lingering sick
ness. He prescribed for me but his
medicine had no perceptible effect.
One day he pronounced my disease
chronic eryslpelas and said it would
be long time before I would be up
and around.
inflammation began on my face
and spread all over my body. My eyes
were swollen and seemed bulging out
OF their sockets l was in a terrible
plight and suffered the most intense
pain throughout my body.
The doctor said my case was a very
severe one. Under his treatment, how
ever, the Inflammation did not dimin-
ish and the pains which shot through
my body increased in severity. After
being confined to bed for two months
under his care. without any improve
ment, l decided to get along for a
time at least without physician.
"a few days after had discontinued
the services Of a physician, friend
from Maine, who was visiting me,
spoke very highly of DR.. Williams

advice. bought box, but with little
confidence that they could help me
when a doctor had failed to do any
good.
81 began to take the pills, however,
two at dose three times a day. After
the second box had been used was
surprised to notice that the inham-
nation was going down and that the
pains which used to cause me such
agony had disappeared. After using
six boxes of the pills I was up and
around the house attending to my
household duties as well as ever. 1
am profoundly thankful that DR.. Will

to my attention and am always ready
to tell any one what they have done
for me-"
Dr. Williams Pink Pills cure all
diseases springing from an impover-

pecially helpful to women whose
