demand in the face of comparatively

LlNEMAN GETS SHOCK
FALLS TWENTY FEET

While making wire connections on
the cross arm of a pole on the electric
line near Clear Lake, S. D., Clarence
Dunn, 81, who is employed with the
Union Public Service Co., of Candy lost
his balance and fell 20 feet to the
ground below him, breaking his right
arm at the elbow and at the wrist.
Young Dunn was standing on his
knees on the cross arm at the time of
the accident AS he lost momentarily
his balance, he reached quickly for a
wire to steady himself and this brought
him in contact with a high voltage cur
rent. On receiving the shock he lost
consciousness and fell to the ground on
his right arm, breaking the bones so
they protruded out Of the flesh several
inches.
Elmer Halvorson and Lloyd Evenson
who were working with him at the time,
called up the doctors in Candy immed-
lately, and Dunn was brought in by car
in quick time to the city hospital here
where the fractured arm was operated
on and bones reset as best they could
1t was found that the bones at the
wrist were smashed, the bone just above
| the elbow broken, and the flesh torn
away badly.-Canby News.

' The unfortunate young man was car

horrible burns on his face and shoulder
were given every attention but the fact
that he had inhaled the flames receiving

hours he succumbed to the Grim Reap

KERKHOVEN MAN HELD UP
MONDAY AND $50 MISSING

AS Walter Schmidt, Of this village,
was walking to Kerkhoven from the
And Jensen farm, east of town, about
o'clock Monday morning. three men
drove up from behind in automobile,
stopped and invited him to set in and
ride with them. AS he started to get
into the machine one OF the men cover
ed him with a revolver and demanded
his valuables. While his hands were in
the air another Of the men went thru
his pockets and took his money (about
$500 but overlooked his watch. Leav-
ing Mr.. Schmidt standing by the road
side the trio then speeded up and drove
on in toward town and he thinks passed
thru the village, tho what road they took
out of town is not known. Mr.. Schmidt
says there was no license tag on the
rear Of the auto and there is little like
lihood of the highwaymen being appre-
hended> The men were all strangers
and Mr. Schmidt says he never saw any
of them in the locality before.
The auto the highwaymen We're driv-
ing was a large touring car Mr.
Schmidt is not sure as to just what
make it was but is of the opinion that
it was either Suits or a National.
1t is likely the car also was stolen.
The holdup was staged on the Salem

U-B0AT PRISONER
TELLS EXPERIENCE
Officer of Inflated U. S. S. Neptune
Gives Story of Remarkable
Adventure and Recovery

Richard Cannon, Chief Petty Officer
of the U. S. S. Neptune, whose dram
attic capture at sea by a German u
Boat and subsequent experiences
aboard the submarine and in a Ger
man prison hospital, thrilled the en-
tire country, is still another world war
hero to test the remarkable recon
structive power of Tanlac and give it
his strong endorsement. Mr.. Cannon's
adventures were so narrowing that his
constitution was completely shattered
but after months of suffering he has
now regained the wonderful health
that enabled him to pull thru his ad-
ventures alive and is today the same
strapping two hundred pound fighter
that embarked on the Inflated collier.
But let him tell his own story:
when the Neptune was torpedoed
off the Irish coast" said Mr.. Cannon,
who now lives at 707 E. Lafayette,
Tampa, Fla, Il had my right leg and
five ribs broken by the explosion, and
when | came to my senses l found my
self On board "a submarine bound for
Germany =. was kept in a German
prison hospital for five months, and
you can imagine what I must have
suffered when l tell you that l fell off
in weight from two hundred and TWEEN
ty-fVe to hundred and thirty-one
pounds. When l was repatriated and
finally got my discharge in February
1919. l was little better than living
skeleton. l had no appetite and my
digestive system was so upset that
what little l did eat always gave me
severe pains in the pit of my stomach
Before / joined the service I never
knew what nerves were, but after
what / went thru my nerves were so
shattered that l couldn't keep still
minute, and the slightest thing upset
me- For six months l continued in
this condition, unable to pick up
strength, and so weak that any at
tempt to work tired me out complete
ly. l began to think that 1 should
never be well and strong man again.
But the way Tanlac overcame my
troubles and built me up was nothing
short of marvellous. It gave me such
an appetite that I wanted to eat all
the while, and I sure did make up for
lost time. I had no more bother with
indigestion and from then on / picked
up strength and put on weight until
now l tip the beam at two hundred and
four pounds and am as we'll and strong
as | ever was before 1 joined the ser
wee. MY nerves are as steady as a die
and I'm like my old self again. Tan
lac is certainly grand medicine and
l think every suffering person ought
to try it."
Tanlac is sold in Willmar by Carl
son Bros, in. Raymond by Albert
Neinhuizen, and in Atwater by A. L.
Larson, and by J. P. Olson at New
London.
