BONES OF WOMAN FOUND
DISAPPEARANCE-OP 2 0 YEARS
AGO BELIEVED CLEARED.'
Skeleton Discovered in Hospital
Attic Thought That of
. Carrie T. Selvage.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 26. A skele
ton of a woman, found today in the
attic of what formerly was a hos
pital, i believed to be that of Carrie
T. Selvage, who disappeared in In
dianapolis 20 years ago. .
The skeleton, which was clothed
in an old blue dress, was found by
workman, in a sitting posture.
It is said it is practically impossible
to determine whether Miss Selvage
was carried to the attic by some one
or whether she went to the place of
her own. accord. Her skull had fallen
to the floor and the bones of the
upper part of the skeleton were lean
ing against the wall.
Miss Selvage disappeared from the
hospital March 11, 1900. -
The building is of unusual con
struction and the place where the
skeleton was-found apparently was a
second attic.
Joseph W. Selvage and his brothers
searched the building the day his sis
ter disappeared and today was the
first time he knew of the second attic.
On the morning Miss Selvage dis
appeared she had returned from a
walk. She asked the nurse to go to
the kitchen and get her some milk.
When the nurse returned she had dis
appeared. Prior to her nervous breakdown
Miss Selvage had been a school teach

Mfe and death By
rX naan is seldom healthy and strong who lives in the dark'or
in sunless rooms. After all, Nature's ways are found to be the
best. . Nature'9 remedies are always best for eradicating disease,
and by this we mean a medicine made of plants and herbs.
Dr. Pierce, founder of the Invalids' Hotel and Surcical Insti
tute, at Buffalo,' N. in many years of extensive practice, found
that he could pin his faith to an alterative extract of certain plants
and roots for the eradication, of blood diseases. This he called Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Containing no alcohol nor
narcotics, entirely vegetable, this "Discovery" makes for rich red
blood and is a powerful tissue-builder; gives the tired business man
or woman renewed strength and health. .Rapidly growing 'school
girls and boys often show impoverished blood by the pimples or
boils which appear on face or neck. To eradicate the poisons from
the blood, and feed the heart, lungs and stomach on pure blood,
nothing is so good as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. If
you "put your house in order" by making tie blood pure you will
not be subject to such troubles. The spring of the year is the best
time to "clean house" because of the toxins (poisons) stored up
within the body during the long winter. This "Medical Discov
ery" of Dr. Pjerce's is just the thing for those who are recovering
from attacks of colds, fin, or pneumonia. It has been sold for
