III met death and three others were
seriously injured early today in
fire which swept the new five

OF these Foley died at the hospital to-
day and the bodies of Walsh and Nc
Nulty have not been recovered.
The fire was caused, 1t Is beHeved,
by the explosion of barrel of oil at
the pumping station on the 1200.foot
level Of the new shaft. Ten men were
working at the 400 foot level at the
time and these looked up to soc the
shaft above them filled with flames.
They at once boarded the cage and
started for the surface They encoun.
tered the flames at the 1200foot level
and stopped.
Vain Effort to Escape.
WIhelmy and four other men left
the cage and started to walk through
the 1200-foot level to the old Alpha
shaft, 700 feet away, through which
they hoped TO climb out of the mine.
The five men remaining in the cage
gave the signal to hoist and were pulled
through the blazing shaft One was
dead when the top was reached and
the others were taken to a hospital.
The work of rescuing the five men
remaining in the mine was then at
tempted through the Alpha shaft.
At the 400foot level Wilhelmy was
found dead; Gilmore body was recov-

slept regularly for months past, only
at intervals, waking up now and then
because of the burning and itching Of
my skin. Having read different tes-
timonials of cures by the Cuticura

of Cuticura Ointment and cake of
Cuticura Soap. After using them for
few days / recognized marked
change in my condition. l bought
about two boxes of Cuticura Ointment
and five cakes of Cuticura Soap in all,
and after few days l was entirely
free from the itching and burning.

due to using Cuticure Soap and Oint-

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills will be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon, SD &
Jefferson SITS, Philadelphia, Pa. If you are
in need of medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your commune
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laxatives or cathartics. They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour, they do
not GRIPPE they do not weaken, but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in a way that soon puts
these organs in a healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 20 feet of human
bowels, which is really a sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing biliousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailment can expect to have a clear

1 had my way l would prohibit the sale
of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of Indigestion,
and so paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead Of impoverish
It; they enable the stomach to get all
the nourishment from food that is put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing, healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without physic.

He has proposed-and o, the Joy
That fills her heart today
gladness nothing can destroy
Abides with her to stay
So marvel--deep her rapture is
No words may tell it all
She knows her heart to that Of his
Forevermore shall cali.
IT'S not that he proposed-Ah, no.
A dozen men have sighed
And spoken things designed to show
Their longing to be tied.
And each, rejected, then and there
His sorrow has displayed
And very soon his love would swear
To quite another maid.
She knows that men are tickle things,
Whose so inconstant hearts
Keep Cupid rushing both his wings
To be there with his darts.
But an exception she has found,
A man whose love is true.
AS surely as the world is round
Or as the sky In blue.
When he proposed she wore a hat
That hid her nose and chin,
A dress that made her like a slat-
A shapeless thing, and thin.
But In his most enamored tone
He told her life was worth
The living for just her alone
The fairest thing on earthi
And so she knows that love Is blind,
But times she has a fright
For fear some day fate unkind
May give him back his sight.
But still she says that If he vows
She's fair In such a garb
Then must his heart forever house
Dan Cupid's biggest barb.
