Rev. William Francis, for five years
assistant pastor of the First Baptist
church died there last night of pomaine
poisoning, and the entire family, consist

seriously i'll.
Last Thursday the family had what

for dinner, and shortly after eating
them they were taken i'll. 1t now
develops that the supposed mushrooms
were toadstools of the most poisonous
variety. They were gathered by a
friend of the family.
Mr.. Francis was state secretary of the

known in Mankato, having frequently

Mrs. Brooks Became So Weak She Thinks
She Would Have Died But For
DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. Sarah L. Brooks, of No. 45 Lin
coin Park, Chicago, Illinois, gives the
following account of ner cure from dis
tressing spells of vomiting:
"For five years off and on I was
treated in vain by different doctors for
relief from a stomach trouble which
showed itself in frequent and trying
spells of vomiting. Part of the time
was able to work and again would be
confined to bed for three or four days in
succession.
envy stomach was at times so delicate
that it would not retain even plain water
The spells would sometimes occur at in
tervals of half an hour, and would leave
Inc so weak that would be compelled
to lie down between them. I would
have several of them during the night
following a day of such attacks. Finally
I became so weakened that I had to give
up working altogether. weighed only
ninety-four pounds.I9 yIB3lD
"Last January read about DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People in one
of the Chicago daily papers and bought
box and began to use them. After I
had used half box found that I could
keep on my stomach the food ate. I
was encouraged by this and kept on
using the pills for four months. At the
end of that time the vomiting spells had
ceased altogether and my weight went
up to 142 pounds and is still growing.
:" 1 think surely would have died if
il had not been for DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for J. sometimes yomited clear
blood, and for three or four days at a
time could not eat a bite of anything
One doctor said had chronic infamma-
ton of the stomach, and another said
my difficulty was cancer, but none of
their medicines did me any good at all.
Finally concluded that [ did not have
blood enough to digest my food and
began the treatment that has cured me.
l can eat anything now, and have
strength for all kinds of work. always
keep Dr. Williams Pink Pills on hand,
and / recommend them to my friends

DR.. Williams Pink Pills agree with the
most delicate stomachs and strengthen
the digestive organs until they do their
work perfectly. They are sold by all
druggists.

of Mr. Miller, declaring him to be one of

say too much in Mr. Miller's behalf.
The Damon brothers, who conduct one

the nomination of Mr.. Miller. They, too,
oppose Mr.. McCleary because of his Ill
