E. S. Boylston, Assembly
man-Elect, Was Reported
To Be Dead.
POLITICAL MALICE
SEEN IN CANARD
News Came from Albany, Where
II Was Told-Governor Glynn
Was to Fill Place.

A report from Albany based on the
erroneous belief that Assemblyman
elect Edward s. Boylston. an under
taker Of No 1886 Second avenue, was
dead. may cause the death Of Mrs.
Boylston. who was critically i'll when
friends, calling at the house in Boyls-
toms absence, came to offer their SYM
pathy.
Boylston declared last night that he
believed the report was inspired by
my political opponents in Albany. and
I intend to find out how the statement
originated"
An afternoon newspaper printed.
under an Albany date line, a story 10
this effect
"A special election probably will be
called soon by Governor Glynn to fill
the vacancy in the 3Oth Assembly Dis
trict caused by the death OF Edward :.
Boylston. He was elected as an inde-
pendent candidate over Assemblyman
Louis A. Cuvillier, who will again be a
candidate"
Boylston left his home early yester-
day afternoon. telling Mrs. Boylston
that he would be home about 8 o'clock.
She was i'll.
Late in the afternoon the telephone
bell in the Boylston home started on a
busy career. The nurse attending Mrs.
Boylston answered the calls. which
were mostly from friends. They want
cd to know when Boylston had died end
what had caused his sudden end.
OF course, the nurse did not say any
thing TO Mrs. Boylston. but the latter
became curious as the calls increased
and wanted To know what occasioned
them. The nurse succeeded in quieting
Mrs. Boylston until two friends ap-
peared at the house. Then the nurse
found II impossible TO give satisfac-
tory explanation. and when the sick
woman learned that her husband was
reported dead. she collapsed.
Boylston, on his way home. stopped
at n drugstore. The druggist. who
knows Boylston well. went white when
he saw the Assemblyman-elect and al
most fell TO the floor. Boylston held
him up. believing that the Druggist
had become III. when the latter re-
covered himself he explained.
Boylston, angered. and fearing that
the news had reached hts home. hur-
ried there. He found Mrs. Boylston
very III, and IL was some time before
It was thought wise To enter her room.
His presence gave her the second shock
Of the day While he was there sew
eral more friends called up with solicl-
tous inquiries.
Last night Boyston gave out this
statement:
ITO use the words Of the late Mark
Twain, the report is greatly exaggerat-
cd. II Is true that, being an under
taker. ! bury the dead but that does
not place me In that class. am GER
tainly as live n person as there Ia In

lished statement as n Joke. | lay the
report as coming from my political
opponents who are now In the Capitol.

Governor Glynn. at Albany last
night, said he had received news yes
terday that Boylston was dead. The
Tribune correspondent Informed him
of the error.

Nearly everybody is obliged more or
less to take a laxative. There are of
course a few exceptions. A great many
people also need occasionally to take a
tonic. Probably few households exist
that do not make use of tonics and
laxatives.
The remedy Peruna is a laxative
tonic. 1t not only operates as gentle
laxative, but also as tonic.
The benefit derived from such a
remedy is a great deal more in the
prevention of disease than in the cure.
After a person has really become sick,
either with an acute or chronic all

physician, or some one who can give the

A TONIC LAXATIVE
Pe-ru-na, an Up-to-Date Family Medicine That
Should Be In Every Home

sease has really gained a foothold in the
system, person was to take dose or two
of good tonic laxative the great MIA ior-
ity of cases of sickness would be pre-
vented.
Peruna is a remedy that should be kept
in the house. It's virtue as a preventive
to disease is the thing l wish chiefly to
emphasize.
A slight condition of constipation may
lead to serious sluggishness of the bowels,
biliousness, re-absorption of poisonous ma
terial and finally sickness. Or apathy Of
the stomach in which the food is not rel
ished, may gradually lead to atomic dyspep-
STA or to the acquisition of some acute dis
ease. For either one of these conditions
few doses of the tonic laxative Peruna
would set matters right. This is why the
remedy should always be kept handy by.
When once the value of Peruna as q
household remedy is understood no home
would be without it. Cathartics, pills and
powders would be discarded. Irritating
toncs would be no longer taken. Alco-
holic drinks would have no place. With a
few doses of Peruna a vigorous appetite is
produced and if there be any sluggishness
of the bowels their function is gradually
restored.
Most laxatives are weakening in their
effect. A tonic laxative guards against
this weakening effect. Until right living
has become SO thoroughly established that
all medicines are superfuous, Peruna will
be needed. 1t is exactly the remedy that
meets numerous necessities of the house
hold. Sold at all drug stores.

runa is a number one medicine. l was

BABY'S HANDS TIED.

Last fall we noticed small rough
and red spots coming on baby's
hands. The skin was very dry and
she kept scratching them until they
would bleed We lost good deal of
sleep with her. Finally we took her to
the doctor and he treated her several
weeks, but it kept spreading until we
had to keep her little hands tied and
dress and bandage them several
times a day they were so sore, and
we used everything we could hear of
for eczema. Finally our druggist told
us about Saxo Salve. We tried it and
one and half tubes has entirely
cured her. Her little hands are
smooth and not even SCARED. Mrs.
