tions, often after many other advertised
medicines had failed.
Both these worldfamed medicines are
wholly made up rom the glyceric ex-
tracts OF native, medicinal roots found
In our American forests. The processes
employed IN their manufacture were
original with Or. Pierce, and they are
carried on by skilled chemists and phar-
macists with the aid OF apparatus and
appliances specially designed and built
for this purpose. Both medicines are
entirely free from alcohol and all other
harmful. habitformsng drugs. A full
list of their ingredients Is printed on each

OF such native medicinal roots as have
received the strongest endorsement and
praise for their curative virtues from

Minnesota Homesteader Bound For :
Dance interrupted by Wild
Brutes-Makes Them
Waltz to Death.

Writ, Minn.-The only man in this
part of the country that can plav a
fiddle worth while is Henry Hinkens.
a homesteader. whose services are
always in demand whenever the lum-
berjacks give a dance, which they did
the other night at Houpt.
After Hinkens had eaten his supper
and done the evening chores about his
place he put his kit under his arm
and started on the seven-mile tramp
through The woods to Houpt There
was considerable snow on the ground
the thermometer was lowering about
the zero mark and the sky was clear
and brilliant with stars. Hinkens
trudged along the lonely trail. whist
ling the latest dance rune and occa-
sionally shaping his hands together
10 keep them warm.
He had gone but a couple Of miles
when he heard the distant bay OF a
wolf. He paid no attention to IL. for
wolves are common in this section and
rarely attack a man unless pressed by
hunger. Nevertheless. when he heard
several answering bowls Hinkens
quickened HIS pace and occasionally
threw an apprehensive glance over
his shoulder. 10 was not long before
he discovered that half a dozen big
gray fellows were trotting down the
trail after him. only a few hundred
yards away.
The homestcader was unarmed. and.
seeing a giant pine partly broken or
by the wind. near the trail. decided
10 ascend IL IN the hope that the
wolves would pass him by unnoticed
He reached the top OF the stump. a tri-
iie over six feet above the level OF the
snow. none too soon. for the band OF
wolves instead of passing on down
the trail. followed his footsteps to the
foot of the pine, and seeing their prey
freed. sat down on their launches and
awaited developments.
Nothing happening. one big fellow.
apparently the leader OF the band. sud
denly leaped at Hinken's feet. which
were hanging carelessly down The side
OF the tree trunk. Hinkens drew them
up Just In time TO escape having his
flesh nipped and then the rest of the
band began to follow their leader and
see how near they could come TO nip-
ping the freed homesteader.
Hinkens began to find their amuse-
ment rather uresome. and. remember
ing TO have heard somewhere that
there is charm in music which
soothes the savage breast. decided to
try the effects OF tune upon the
wolves. He unloosened his kit. drew
