What was supposed to be n case of
suicide by poisoning. was reported to
the sherin's office ana the local police
last evening. Jacob Juntunen. "A farm
or residing near the Arcadian location,
was supposed To have drank the con-
tents of a bottle containing medicine
for the cure of an affiction with which
several members of the Juntunen fami-
" were afflicted. A postmortem ex-
animation. held this morning at the
Crawford undertaking rooms by Coun-
ty Physician Jackson showed conclu-
sively, however that the man had TAX
On no poison and that death was due
to apoplexy, there being nothing in
the stomach but bread and milk that
had been partakcn of by Juntunen for
his supper. There was not trace of
poison.
Juntunen, who is about SO years of
age. was engaged yesterday in hauling
wood on his small farm, which he leas-
es from the Arcadian company. He
had eaten his supper, with the MEM
bers of his family, consisting of his
wife and four children, and afterwards
he asked his wife for the medicine.
He took the bottle. and retired to an
adjoining bedroom. A few minutes
elapsed and then the family heard the
noise as of some one falling heavily to
the floor. They rushed into the room
and found Juntunen PROSTATE on the
floor, and he expired in a few moments.
The bottle showed that a quantity of
the lotion was gone and it was imme
diately surmised that the man had
swallowed it, presumably with suicidal
intent.
Ed. Shields of the Arcadian mine was
Notified and he informed the police au-
thori.les of the occurrence. Justice c.
o. Oliver of Hancock was also called
and he impaneled jury to hold cor
oner's inquest. The jury comprised

ers. A. l.. Levy, John Mccarthy, Ed
Foley and James Kelly. They viewed
the remains which were then taken in
charge by Undertaken John ID. Craw
ford and brought to Hancock. where
the postmortem was held this morning.
From the examination made by DR..
Jackson the latter Is certain that there
was no poison i'm the mans stomach
and that apopleXy caused death, which
conclusion he communicated to Justice
Olivier. The funeral will be held on
Sunday afternoon, with interment in
the Lakeside cemetery.

When the blood becomes tim all OF
the organs and tissues of the body suffer
from lack of nourishment, for it is the
blood that is constantly carrying to every
part of the human system the materials
with which to repair the waste that is
going ON throughout life. Naturally
the weakest organ is the first to show
the result of this blood starvation and
any inherited tendency to disease is then
likely to develop. Whatever it may be,
if the trouble is caused by lack of blood
it must be corrected by building up the
blood.

NOT KEEPING UP.
Vermont Is Not in the Lead in Fight
Toward Eradication of Tubercu-


lOS1S.
Recent articles in state papers
which stated that Vermont, as a
state, was among the leaders in the
war against the dread white plague,
and had seemed to wake to the dan
gers of the infection from the
spreading of tuberculosis, prompted
a letter from w. A. Eddy a patient
at the Vermont sanatorium, calls
attention to the fact that the state
is not in the lead and states statis-
tics to prove it. He says;
For anyone to say that Vermont
stands in the van of the anti-tuber-
culosis army, would seem to show
either prejudiced point OF view or
a lack of accurate information. To
be exact, Vermont, as a state, stands
so far back in the procession that
those in front cannot be seen and
thus the road seems clear. With
only % state beds, in any matter
whatsoever at the disposal of tuber-
culosis-afficted patients, and those
20 in an insane hospital, Vermont
should rather hang her head in
shame, than to be spouting egotisti-
cal panegyrics through the editorial
columns of one of her leading news
papers,
The tuberculosis exhibit in Mont
pelier on the 18th and goth of this
month should be attended by every
person of intelligence who has the
interests of the Capital City and the
health of its residents at all at
heart.
