DO YOU WEED A
MEDICINE?
n cosTs Yov NOTHING TO INVESTIGATE.

There is no one who does not need a
Liver Medicine occasionally.
The symptoms OF Liver Complaint are
well Known to every one, such as consti-
patton, dyspepsia. loss of appetite, sleep
lessuess, headache, tired feeling and
ri;ny Others of a similar nature.
Thousands die annually by not needing
the warnings of nature.
Many acquire some chronic disease
FROM which they never recover.
Many of these could be spared for years
Of usefulness, by keeping in the home
some reliable remedy.

A HARD FIGHT FOR LIFE.
A Man Attacked BY Two Prize Bulls
In a Car.

Syracuse, NJ Y, July 28.-Eugene
Mills, an employe of a stock farm
near this city, has had a hard fight
for life with two prize bulls, and but
for the timely arrival of his employer
would have been killed
The animals were in box car, pre-
paratory to being shipped to the St.
Louis exposition, and Mills attempted
to tighten the rope on one of them.
The bull made a rush at the man,
and, striking him in the chest, knock
ed him down. Scrambling to his feet,
he tried to escape, but was met by the
other animal. .j
Mills was again knocked down, and
would have been gored to death had
not his employer, hearing the commo-
tion and cries, came to the rescue.
He beat off the infuriated animals and
dragged the man from the car. A ply.
sician found that Mills was badly cut
about the head and probably internal

ACCIDENT BULLETIN.
There Were 79 Passengers and $40
Railway Employees Killed.

Washington, July 28.-According to
the accident bulletin, issued Wednes-
day by the interstate commerce conf
mission, there were 79 passengers and
$40 employees of railroads killed, and
1880 passengers and 10,S54 employees
injured in accidents on railroads in
the United States during the quarter
ended March 81, 1904. This is de-
crease of eight killed over the cor
responding quarter last year. The
amount of damage to railway property
caused by accident during the quarter,
was $2,256,447. The bulletin says that
the increased use of the airbrake, di-
minishing the necessity for employees
on top of trains, has made a reduction
of 80 per cent. in the number of per-
sons falling off cars.

Many mon and women are constantly

city of any size and hardly a week
passes, winter or summer, without find
ing him here. His relationship to Sen
atOT German and Senator Elkins and
his business connections with John r.
Mclean and other district millionafres
have brought him here even more often
than would otherwise be the case. Seen
in the company of any of these men he
does otSeem to be their senior, although
there is no one of them to whom he
cannot show score of years in retro
Spect. He has the sturdy form and the
Springy step Of youngster of 60, and
there is not sign that can be observed
of the encroachments of extreme age.
An early life on the farm and hard
work on the railroad undoubtedly have
had much to do with this, and an abb
StemiOuS life has had more.
With all his millionS-and Senator
Davis is credited with a fortune rang
ing all the way from $40 0,00O,0 to $40,-
100000 according to the imagination of
the chronicler-he has never yet been
known to indulge in extravagances of
any kind. His tastes are as simple as
those of Russell Sage. When he was in
the senate and had rooms at the Az
lington hotel the members of his fam
lily used to make their own dresses and
sewing machine was constantly run
