How to Cure a Cold

The inner surface of your lungs is a delicate fmucous membrane, thinner than the finest tissue paper. Behind these fragile walls the blood cir culates and meets the air as it is inhaled.
 A deep-seated cold affects this delicate lung surface. Such cold almost invariably leaves the lungs Ill weakened condition, and this, combined with lowered general vitality, turns them into a favorable settling ground for the tuberc1e bacillus --in plain English, the Consumption germ.
 This, in a few words, is the history of the be- ginning of Consumption in nine-tenths of the half-million or more cases in the United States
 That's why you should never let an ordinary cold run unchecked.
 Before it is through with you 1t nsay the cause Of y0ur death.

Awarded Divorce and $1o0,oO0 Perma- :
 nent Alirnony.

Bay City. Mich, Jan. g.-Mrs. Car rie A. Bialy, wife of Robert c. Bialy, local sugar manufacturer, capitalist and merchant, was this afternoon awarded a decree of divorce and S100,- GOO permanent alimony. The alimony is the largest in amount ever given in any court in northern Michigan. Cru city and assertion were the grounds.
Norwich bulletin., 1911-01-10

This sounds alarming, but it is plain truth. A cold by itself cannot cause Con- sumption, because that dread plague is germ dis ease-and the germ must find lodgment in the lungs before consumption can be- gin. We all breathe in mill lions of these germs every day, but our lungs are strong enough to throw them off.
 But
 Lungs weakened by a deep-seated cold are not able to throw off the invading

JUMPS IN WELL
FIRST LOCKS WIFE INTO SHED,
TELLING HER OF HIS IN
TENTloNs.

Richland, Nov, 6.--While his wife.
whom he had locked in a woodshed
watched him frantically. and helpless
to prevent the deed. David Oswalt.
plunged head first into well Saturday
|afternoon.
The tragedy occurred about one
O'Clock, and was not known to any
one until some time afterwards when
the cries Of Mrs. Oswalt aroused the
neighbors who then went to her res
cue, and heard the story Of her hus.,
bands self-murder. NH
Mr.. Oswalt was teamster by &C.
cupation, but had for some time been
unable to do much work on account OF
illness. Brooding over his troubles, It
Is believed he went insane. Shortly
after the noon meal he suddenly seized
his wife and dragged her into the
woodshed. There he securely locked
her In and then announcing to her tha&
he intended to kill himself he rushed
to the well which had an open curb.
Plunging into it head, first he sank
into the cold water and persisted.
From the window Of the shed where
she was prisoner, Mrs. Oswald could
see her husbands movements, and al.
though she cried aloud to him and
called for help, she was powerless to
prevent the suicide. After her hus-
band disappeared yin the well she
screamed wildly and thus attracted
the attention Of the neighboTs who
quickly came to her rescue. The body
of her husband was taken from the
we'll and will be buried probably to-
day.
Mr.. Oswalt was 50 years Of as-, and
leaves besides his widow one daughter.

came to Richland about two years ago.
