Redfield while bringing George Lundy,

Edgeley, N. D, where he is wanted

The sheriff and his deputy had been

WAS CAUGHT IN
SHAFT And MANY
BONES BROKEN

Walcott, N. D., Feb. 15s--Erick Gut
tormson escaped death by a very small
margain when his oyercoat was
caught in the shaft of the gasoline
engine in the Equity elevator in this
village.
Ertck hauled in a load of wheat, and
after driving into the elevator he went
into the office to warm up. The stove
is in the pit near the gasoline engine,
below the Office proper. While stand
ing near the stove he stepped back to-
became fast in the balance wheel or
the shaft which extends a few inches
out from the wheel.
In the twinkle Of an eye he was
picked up and whirled around with the
wheel, where he hung until his coat
and sweater were torn from his body.
He was thrown against the cement
floor and when picked up there appear
ed TO be no signs Of life.
He regained consciousness in a few
minutes, when the doctor was called
and after a hurried examination 1t was
found that his left leg was broken in
two places, his left arm also was brok-
en- In two or three places. Some of
the ribs on the left side were also
crushed, together with some minor
cuts and bruises on the head and
shoulders. 1t is a miracle that he sur
Vived the shock,
He was taken to the Breckenridge
hospital on No. 4, at 7:15 in the even
ing. Late reports are that his chances
for recovery are good. -

am a man OF family. And while we
try to live properly, yet we r sub
ject to disease and arrangements like
other people. Occasionally we have
to 8 drugs. What would you ad-
wiser
My reply, in part, was as foIloWs:
Let us suppose it was a cough, or
common cold, or a hoarseness, or
a pain in the chest. or a twinge Of
rheumatism, or a stopp9ge of the
nose and discharge from the throat,
indicating catarrh.
What o are after is, first, to cure
yourself Of your troublea and, sec-
ond, to gain experience so that you
may cure yourself next time, IL you
or any member of your family should
be so afflicted.
IL o go to the drug store you buy
Peruna. IL it cures you then you
lknow what to get next time. IL 1t
does not cure you and 1t proves to
be worthless, you know what to
avoid.
In taking advertised medicines that
have a definite name you are grad
ually learning to distinguish between
those remedies that help and those
that do not. @.
If. a neighbor in whom / have cor
idence should tell me that they have
purchased a bottle Of some adver-
tised medicine that helped them, ]
should feel perfectly free to give the
medicine q trial. And If / found that
the advertised medicine cured me /
should not hesitate to tell my neigh
bors about it. / should not hesitate
to have my name published, either,
as testifying to the merits Of such a
medicine. Nothing short of this
would be justice. Nothing less than
this would be honest.
The prejudice against advertised
medicines may have had some foun-
dalton in the past. But up to date

imously endorsed by our executive
council. There has been a great strug-
gle of workers to break through the
crust of bigotry and greed and let the
world know what is implied in the
movement for the reduction of the
hours of labor" .
President Gompers further said:
1.-The parliamentary situation in the
house might prevent the passage Of the
bill at this session, but a favorable re-
port from the labor committee would
have a moral effect and would mean
prompt consideration in the new o
gress."

How Can the People Decide
Which Medicine is Best?

can conscientiously say that there ara
Just as good medicines in the drua
store, compounded in a rnanufac"
tory, advertised for sale to n PEG
pie, just as good medicines OF thia
kind as the medicines that the doc
tors prescribe.
Ali our best remedies have been
first found by common experience
The testimony of person and an
other spread the news and shnaly
its use has become general.
This is exactly the way PeruIla
has spread among the people. 1t a
not been advertising that q SOLO
Peruna. Sometimes advertising sells
the first bottle to a person, but AFTER
wards it must be h merlts OF re
runa that sell it.
One person takes Perufla n is
cured of a cough or cold, or catarrh,
lung disease or kidney disease, or
stomach disease. Some one of these
arrangements which perhaps the
doctors have failed to cure, Peruna
relieves. He tells his neighbor about
it. His neighbor tries it for the same
purpose and is cured also. de again
tells 1t, and so the news is spread,
Yes, I mean to put myself on record
as saying it is from the experience
of the common people that we must
! expect to sift out h genuine
remedies from the many spurious
ones claiming attention.
AS a doctor myself, who has spent
many years in the study and practice
of medicine, I say and shall say again
many times that Peruna is the best
remedy | know of to meet the ON
mon, everyday climatic ailments TO
which the household is subject. And
if I were keeping house as you are,
trying to keep free from debt inc

tie of Peruna in the house all the

LIMIT FOR TIRES AND LOADS
Chairman Diehi Of National Reads
6oard. Favors Highway Conven-
ton Of State Commissioners.

A meeting OF leading state highway
commissioners and the manufacturers
OF horse-drawn wagons and motor
driven trucks. is the suggestion of
Chairman George c. Diehl of the A.
A A. National Good Roads board. TO
consider legislation governing the
width OF tires aud the weight Of
loads
Many states have enacted laws to
regulate the width of tires. but there
has not been strict enforcement of
these regulations. says Chairman
Diehl Narrow tires. especially dur
ing the wet season. form ruts in i'm
proved roads. and in many instances
where the roads are weak. break
through the surface causing rapid de-
struction of the highway
One great difficulty in enforcing
Wide-tlre ordinances With horse-drawn
vehicles has been that while less trac-
uon is required with wide tires, on
slippery clay or billy roads. Il is very
dimcuit in wet weather To- manage
horsc-drawn vehicle with vide lres
owing TO It's tendency to skid aud
slide into the bitches.
Equal II not greater damage. can
be done TO the highway with tires OF
insufficient width on motor trucks.
There is no state where wide-tire ordi-
nances are drawn which relate 10 both
horse-drawn and motor-driven We
hicles. or where a scientific attempt
has been made 10 prepare such ordi-
nances or where a strict enforcement
is had.
1T is also entirely practicable and
that the weight of loads
should be limited. as the bridges.
which form an integral part OF the
highway are not, in a great major
ity Of cases. sufficiently strong to
carry weights which are becoming
more and more excessive"
