Praise is being bestowed upon a

luth & Iron Range road, who parted
with pieces of their cuticle that the
process of skin grating might be
successfully carried out on Bert Bry-
ant OF Two Harbors, brakeman who
recently suffered the loss of his foot
above the ankle. Over four hundred
pieces of skin have been secured and
placed by the surgeons upon the
wound, with every Indication that it
will promptly heal as soon as more
grating, is done.

The Limit of Life.

The most eminent medical scientists
are unanimous in the conclusion that
the generally accepted limitation of
human life is many years below the
attainment possible with the advanced
knowledge of which. the race is now
possessed. The critical period, that
determines it's duration, seems to be
between SO and 60; the proper care of
the body during this decade cannot be
too strongly urged; carelessness then
being fatal to longevity. Natures
best helper after SO is Electric Bitters,
the scientific tonic medicine that re-
vitalizes every organ of the body.
