DIGGING FOB BOD*
OF BURIED MINER
Hundreds of Men at Work Day and
Night in Short Mountain
Mine
Special to The Telegraph
Eykens, Pa., April I.—The body
of Edward Metz, who was entombed
In a breast of the mine at the Lykens
Short Mountain Colliery yesterday, had
not yet been recovered . last evening.
Several hundred men were at worlc
for the last forty hours and have re
moved more than 300 tons of slate,
rock, and coal, yet no traco of the
man can be found. To-day work
was begun oil digging headings
through another pillar nearby in order
to avert the fall of coal, which has
continued since the accident. The
vein in which thfc unfortunate maxi
worked was over thirty feet thick and
on a steep pitch. The top and bot
tom pressure of the mountain on the
coal bed continues to smash the body
of coal and force it toward the open
ing of the breast, so that it will bo
hard to tell when this stops and all the
coal be cleared away. Some of the
men have been at work on the rescue
since the accident happened, taking
their meals in the njtne. Last night
the officers furnished the rescuers with
twenty pounds of tobacco. This is
used to lessen the Inhalation of the
great clouds of coal dust which is
continually present.
l>audenslnger, who worked with
Metz. and who suffered from shock,
Is in a fair condition to-day.
MOTHER TELLS
How Her Little Girl Was Re
stored to Health
Mrs. Chas. Schriotgr of 139 Himrod
St., Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "My Ut
ile girl was frail, sickly and all run
flown after having had the grippe. I
was advised to give her Vinol and
after the first bottle noticed an Im
provement. She has taken four bot
tles and has picked up rapidly, having
gained six pounds in three weeks."
The reason Vinol builds up weak,
ailing children so quickly is because
it contains in a delicious combina
tion the two most world famed tonics
—i. e., the strength creating, body
building elements of cod liver oil,
with all the useless grease eliminated,
and tonic iron for the blood added.
,'ff you have a weak, puny, ailing
child, try Vinol on our offer to re
turn your money if it fails to benefit
your little one. George A. Gorgas,
druggist, Harrisburg, Pa. Vinol is
sold In Steelton by T. Prow^ll.
P. S. If you have Eczema try our
Saxo Salve. We guarantee it. —Ad-

A TONIC FOR DYSPEPTICS
When food lies undigested in the
stomach it ferments and gas forms.
This gas distends the stomach and
presses on the heart, causing a pain
that sometimes arouses fear of heart,
trouble. The condition in which gus
forms is caused by a low tone of the
digestive organs and a lack of rich
red blood resulting in deficient nerve
force. It is a condition that calls for
a tonic.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, a tonic for
the blood and nerves, have been used
with great success in the treatment of
this form of stomach trouble. Cold
baths in tlio morning followed by brisk
friction with a rough towel will help
as they stimulate the circulation but u I
tonic treatment with Dr. Williams' I
Pink Pills by building up the blood,
restoring the nerve force and making
the stomach able to do its work gives
the most lasting benefit. With their
use the appetite increases, digestion
becomes normal and improvement in
the general health follows with cer-1
tainty.
You are trying no experiment when
you take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They
cannot harm the most delicate sys
tem.
You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
at the nearest drug store. A copy of
the diet book "What to Eat and How
to Eat" will be sent free by the Dr.
