 The remains of the late Samuel Curtiss, who died suddenly in New York, were brought here yesterday on the 11:30 a. m. train and the funeral services were held in the Congrega- tional church. The statement that interment would be in Evergreen cemetery was not correct, as the de- ceased had expressed desire to have his remains cremated and they were taken to New York on the 5:35 train for that purpose.

 Fels-Naptha soap washes clothes, washes dishes, and does all the cleaning about the house in cold or lukewarm water. No boiling, no steam; not even hot water. Your hands are not made tender, and rough and red, but remain soft and smooth. The work is done better, too, and in far less time than in the old-fashioned way with hot water. Why not have nice hands! Follow the directions in the Fels-Naptha red and green wrapper.

Badly Gut by Broken Carboy'

A serious accident occurred at the
store of the Burlington Drug Co.
Friday when Joseph Cote was bad
ly cut by broken carboy. Cote
had filled five gallon carboy with
water and was putting it in place on
a water cooler. To do this it is
necessary to invert the carboy. As
he was doing this the glass broke,
cutting him about the hand and
wrist. The tendons and some ar
teries were severed. Efforts were
at once made to keep him from
bleeding to death. It was found
necessary to remove him to the Mary
Fletcher hospital, and his condition
is very favorable, no danger from
blood poisoning being anticipated.
AS some of the severed tendons were
connected with the fingers it is
feared that the control of the fingers
will be partially lost.

In the National league, Pittsburg
