FOR 30 DAYS YOU CAN
RHEUMATISM, SCIATICA AND CATARRH
Cured by "5 DROPS" Three Years Ago.
DOCTORS PRONOUNCED HIM INCURABLE
He Is still well and writes, on Oct. 1 0, 1 898: ' I teel It a duty
that I owe to God and suffering humanity to announce to you and
all the world what "6 DROPS" hat done for me."
(TRADE MARK.
SIBERIA. PERRY CO., IND., JAN. 29, 1896.
SWANSON RHEUMATIC CURE COMPANY: I would like to thank you for your
great remedy, "6 DROPS," and tell you what it has done for me. I had Rheuma
tism In every Joint and in the heart, and 1 had Catarrh of the Head for 30 years. 1
waa so poorly that I lost the use of my legs and arms, and could not move without
pain. I was stf crippled that I had done but little work for seven long years, and our
family physician, a good doctor, told me that my Rheumatism and Catarrh were
Incurable, and I believed him. But now, AFTER USING "5 DROPS" ONLY TWO
MONTHS, I can truly say I HAVE NOT FELT SO WELL FOR SEVEN YEARS.
This medicine does more than la claimed for it. At this time my Catarrh is much
better and I have scarcely any Rheumatism at all, and the heart weakness and pain
are gone. My hearing is now good and my eyesight is much better. I have gained
more than 10 pounds of flesh and can do a full day's work. It is the best medicine I
ever saw to give a mother who has a young child, for It has the same effect on the
child as on the mother. It wards off Croup and cures the Hives of the child,, and
causes sweet and refreshing sleep to both young and old. WM. M. KELLEM3.
SIX TESTIFY TO ITS TRUTH.
In a letter of October 10, 1898, from Mr. Kellems, he says: "I feel It a duty that 1
owe to God and suffering humanity to announce to you and all the world that I am
yet In the ring with untold thousands of others, to testify to the great merits of your
valuable remedy called "5 DROPS." I believe I was the first sufferer la this part of
the earth to learn of the existence of "5 DROPS," some three years ago. I wa then
badly afflicted with Rheumatism, Catarrh, etc., which my letter of Jan. 29, 1896, fully
speaks of. All I can say is "5 DROPS" cured me. To make a long story short, "5
DROPS" needs no recommendation in this part of the country, aa everybody knows
the "5 DROPS' remedies around here. IT HAS CURED more cases of Rheuma
tism, Sciatica, Neuralgia and many other pains than any other medicine that has ever
been sold or heard of. For the last three years I have noticed the effect "5 DROPS"
has on the eick, through my own observations as well as my brother, who is a prac
ticing physician, and USES THE "5 DROPS" IN HIS PRACTICE. All ye that wish
for further Information, write and you are sure to get a reply without any delay. I
will (as I have done in this letter) cheerfully recommend it to any one that I may
come in contact with. I myself can never forget what this remedy has done for
me and1 many others. Yours very truly,
WM. M. KELLEMS. Siberia, Ind.

Kellems, Jno. Hays, all of Siberia, Ind.

A tourist, who has just returned

anecdote: "On one Of the railways
slower than those of Spain the train
crawling along at the rate of six miles
an hour, was suddenly brought to a
standstill. 'What's the matter, guard?'
was the anxious query of a passenger.
'Oh, sir, only a cow on the track.'
The obstruction having been removed,
the train steamed on, and at the end of
an hour the train once more stopped.
'What's np now, gnard?' the passenger
again asked. 'Is it another cow?' 'No,
sir, no,' was the prompt reply; 'same
cow, sir.' " Chicago Journal.

DAKOTA ASYLUM FIRE'
Sixteen Women Patients
Burned to Death.
ONE OF THE COTTAGES GUTTED
A Like Institution Was Destroyed In
188)1, Causing the Death of
Six Persona.
Yankton, S. D., Feb. 14. A moat
horrifying fire occurred this morning
at 2 o'clock at the state insane asy
lum, when one of the cottages was com
pletely gutted and caused the loss of
the lives of 17 women inmates.
The cottage had atone and granite
walls with wooden interiors, and in
tended for laundry purposes. Owing
to the crowded condition of the main
building, 40 of the female patients were
placed here with the laundry in the
basement. The fire originated in the
diyroom of the laundry. Here there
was a coil of steam pipes, and the
theory is that either fine particles simi
lar to lint settled on the pipes and ig
nited, or that clothes 'which were
thickly hung close by dropped on to
the pipes, and were fired.
The fighting ot the fire was greatly
hindered by the loes of power. The
only source of .water was an artesian
well, 400 feet distant, the pipes for
pumping which ran through the cot
tage. The intense heat soon caused
the pipes to burst, thus leaving the fire
men without power, and dependent en
tirely upon the direct pressure from the
tank. But two streams of water could
be thrown on the building, and these
did but little good.
Fifty-two persons were in the build
ing, 40 patients and 13 attendants.
The structure was three stories and an
attio high, and had two .entrances.
There was one stairway from the sec
ond and third floors, which led into
the main hall, thus giving, but one
egress for those above the first floor.
Patients and attendants fled with ter
ror, great confusion resulting, especially
among those on the upper floors.
Many heartrending scenes were enacted
as the inmates, clad only in their night
clothes and barefooted, rushed down
the narrow flight of stairs, and finally
ont into the snow. The temperature
was 23 degrees below zero, and further
loss of life from freezing was prevented
alone by prompt work of the attend
ants from the main buildings. The at
tendants escaped, as did the others,
who were saved, with none of their
personal effects, many losing all they
possessed. Portions of charred re
mains can be seen in the debris at the
bottom of the basement. The four
walls of stone still stand, black and
grim, and will make the work of re
moval dangerous, as a total collapse la
liable to occur without a - moment's
warning..
The institution was destroyed by fire
in 1882, when six lives were loet. The
pecuniary loss at today's fire is (18,000,
uninsured.
BURIED IN AN AVALANCHE.
Many Italian Miners Victims of the
Slie Eight Bodies Recovered.
Denver, Feb. 14. Two mighty ava
lanches combining into one swept
down Cherokee gulch at 8 o'clock this
morning, carrying away a dozen or
more mine buildings, cabins and ma
chinery, and causing a great loss of life
and damage to mine property. How
many dead bodies lie in this great mass
of snow and debris will not be known
before spring. Eight dead bodies are
now at the morgue, two more persons
are known to be lost, and three have
been taken out alive. ' The rescuing
party has only penetrated about 15 feet
into the 'mass of snow and wreckage
piled up at the foot of the gulch to the
depth of 75 feet.
Asroncillo Ordered the Fight.
Washington, Feb. 14. The follow
ing cablegram was received at the war
department today from Otis:
"Manila, Feb. 14. Adjutant-General,
Washington: It is reported the
insurgent representative at Washington
telegraphetd Aguinaldo to drive out
the Americans before the arrival of re
inforcements. The dispatch. was re
ceived at Hong Kong and mailed to
Malolgs, which decided on the attack
to be made about the 7th inst. The
eagerness of the insurgent troops to
engage the Americans precipitated the
battle."
Panama Strike Continues.
Colon, Colombia, Feb. 14. At a
conference held yesterday at Panama,
a representative of the strikers declared
that the men were willing to accept
(2.20 a day in currency, but the tail
way officials declined to entertain the
proposition. Fifty more laborers from
Fortune island arrived today on the
steamer Finance. The general situa
tion, so far as the strike is concerned,
is unaltered. This end of the Panama
railroad is completely blockaded.
Gale In England.
London, Feb. 14. A heavy sale
swept the British islands yesterday and
bas continued today, causing floods at
many points. Rivers have overflowed
theii banks, railways have been sub
merged and there have been numerous
casualties along the coast.
In reply to the representations of
Ambassador White, Germany has as
sured the United States that she will
investigate the conduct of her agents
in Samoa, and should it be shown that
tlley have acted in violation of the
treaty of Berlin, sbe will recall them.
The chief officer and boatswain of
the British steamer Martello, from
New York forHull, England, were
killed and the quartermaster and a
seaman drowned, during a fearful
storm recently.
Deputy Sheriff Davis returned to
Dallas a few days ago from the Panhan
dle along the line of the Fort Worth &
Denver railway. He says the storm
caused distress and desolation. At
Tezline, the snow is five feet deep on
the level. The mercury was 15 de
grees below at Clarendon. The loss of
cattle along the line of the railway is
something terrible. There were re
ports at stations of terrible distress
among the inhabitants of sparsely set
tled districts, and it is regarded as a
certainty that many jieisons have
frozen to death. .
New Creoaotlng Plant.
Thereosoting plant of the Southern
Pacifio has recently bagan operation at
Latham, in Lane county. Huge re
torts or boilers, long enough to take in
piles 110 feet long, are first filled with
timber, which are then covered with
creosote and heated to a temperature
of 250 degrees. This heat drives the
water all out of the wood - by evapora
tion, and the hot creosote takes its place
during an immersion of eight to twelve
hours. It is claimed that piling thus
treated will last 50 years. The life of
untreated piles is about 10 years.
Many Horses Perished.
Reports from Gilliam county, Or.,
are to the effect that range horses have
perished in enormous numbers during
the late cold snap. Persons who trav
eled over that section of the country
have seen the animals lying by the
roadsied, having been frozen to death
after reaching the stage of starvation.
More Goata Than First Reported.
Instead of only 1,400 goats in and
around North Yamhill, the local pa
per Bays that, according to a recent
careful count, made by some local
men, there are about 4,000 head, all of
which are within a comparatively short
distance of .the town.
New Shingle Mill.
. E. L. Gaudette, a Whatcom county,
Wash., logger,' is building a new
shingle mill at Samish lake. The mill
will cost about (8,000 and be finished
and running about March 20 or later
during that month. The mill cut
about 150,000 shingles a day.
Increase In Wheat Acreage.
The reports of confidential agents of
the Southern Pacifio show that a 10 per
cent increase" in acreage has been sown
in wheat this winter, and also that the
condition of the crop is excellent.

while, but as soon as taken off, the pain
would be just as bad as. ever. Doctors
prescribed medicine, but it gave me no
relief.
'Now I feel bo well and strong,

your Compound. I cannot praise it
enough. It is a wonderful medicine.
I recommend it to every woman Z
