loss Lads.
Fire that was started, It Is supposed,
by boys ivho had been smoking in the

lacnea to the hydtanl in front of
Alderman Morrison's oiTlce. was found I
to he 150 feet short. The Mitchells,
now ever, succeeded in ilai!ng a

Later when the Columbia men tried to
turn the w.irer off of the hydrant to
winch their hose was connected they
were unable to do so, because of the
stem bein,; rounded from wear. City
engineer Kupp came to the rescue
5ith a hand w tench, but not until the

THE ROBBINS WORKS INCIDENT
It Is Closed So Far as Company Is
Concernod and Ninetoen Young

the company refused to reinstate th
discharged employes when they pre
sented themselves to Superintendent

the lads who weie so precipitate in
their conduct will hae to seek em
ployment elsewhere. The employes
who kept aloof are contentedly at

their wages once a month.

LOOK AT YOUR LIFE LINE.
The life line is not an infallible oracle If it were
it would be wise to select our soldiers by the lenRth
of the life lines in their hands. But the soldier
is selected on the basis of stature, strength and
stomach, for the stomach stands for the general
health and vitality of the man. A "weak" stomach
means a weak tnau, and a weak man won't do for
a soldier. A weak stomach means a weak man
because the body is nourished by food, and unless
the stomach and other organs of digestion and
nutrition are in sound-health, the food will be im
perfectly digested and partially assimilated, and so
the entire body will be insufficiently nourished.
That is why no man is stronger than his stomach.
That is why "weak " heart, "weak" lungs, "weak"
kidneys and other forms of organic weakness are
often cured when the weak stomach is cured and
the organs are nourished into strength.
That is why Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery cures many forms of disease seemingly remote
from the stomach, by curing the diseased stomach
in which these other diseases had their origin. Dis
eases which originate in a diseased condition of the
stomach are cured through
the stomach.

The life and strength of the
body are entirely derived from
food. When the digestive
and nutritive systems are disordered or diseased, the
channels by which the food supply must reach the
several organs of the body are partly obstructed.
Hence, the supply of nourishment falls below the
needs of a healthy body, and emaciation links itself
l with disease. The great flesh-making and body
building qualities possessed by Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery are due to the fact that it cures
i the disorders and diseases of the digestive and
I nutritive systems, cleans out the choked channels of
nutrition, and so opens the

"Your medicine helped me so much that I cannot praise It too
highly," writes Mrs C L Brooks, of Poland, Androscoggin Co..
Maine. "The first dose I took helped me. I cannot forget how
I felt when I took it. I was sudering everything with indreea.
Hon, nnd my stomach wa so bloated that it seemed as though
t mint burst. My husband aid he was going for the doctor,
but I said If he would get mc a bottle of the 'Golden Medical
Discovery ' I would try that. I had not taken it long when 1 felt
relieved, and have not had a touch of indigestion or stomach
trouble since. I had been sick for four years nnd less than four
bottles cured me. Some people that knew mc before I began
to take the 'Golden Medical Discovery ' tell me that they never
saw such a change in any one, nnd they also say they don't see
how I can do such large washlng9 ns I do now, when I had not
done a washing for so long."
The relation of other weakened organs to the
"weak" stomach is shown most forcibly by the
wonderful manner in which weak lungs are healed
bv "Golden Medical Dibcovcry." This is a medi
cine which strengthens the stomach and purifies the
blood. What has a medicine for the stomach and
blood to do with the lungs ? Answer that question
by asking another. What have the stomach and
blood to do with the lungs?
Why everything. There's
no life without blood, and
there's no blood without food,
and food is prepared for blood
making purposes in the stom
ach. It is evident, then, that
the " weak " stomach is inti
mately related to the weak
lungs. All phy
sicians recognize
this. For con
sumptives they
prescribe cod
liver oil and its
emulsions. This
is a food and
nothing else.
Its use is an at
tempt to reach
the lungs
through the
Z stomach by in
creased nutri
tion. But this
treatment in
trying to reach'
the weak lungs
does nothing for
the weak stom
ach, and there
fore attempts to
cure the fruit of
a disease with
out touching the
root of it, and that's why
the treatment fails.
"Golden Medical Discov
ery " heals diseases of the
stomach and organs of di
gestion and nutrition, and
so increases the nutrition
of the body. It stimu
lates the, action of the
blood-making glands so
that an abundant quantity of pure, rich blood is
supplied in a vitalizing stream to the organs whose
life is blood.
People who have been given up by doctors;
people whose obstinate coughs, hemorrhages, night
sweats and emaciation all told the story of diseased
lungs, have been perfectly and permanently cured
by the use of "Golden Medical Discovery."
