Death From Dynamite.
Monday morning the Currahee
quarries was the scene of a serious
accidency which resulted in the
death of the superintendent of the
quarries, Mr. Bud Corn.
Mr. Corn, with the quarry force,
was at work blasting. Three blasts
were prepared and the rnen retired
some distance to await the explo¬
sion. Only one blast occurred at
the time expected and alter wait¬
ing a moment or two for the other
two to occur, Mr. Corn went up to
investigate. Just as he reached
the spot the two blasts occurred,
and those who were standing at a
distance saw the body of Mr. Corn
together with a vast amount of
rock and dirt, fly upward. Mr.
Corn was found to have been kill¬
ed instantly. A negro laborer who
went with him to examine the fuse,
was thrown some fifty feet down
an embankment, but escaped un¬
injured.
Mr. Corn had been in Toccoa
only a short time, having come
from Charlotte to take the position
of superintendent. He was about
forty five years of age.
A Real Friend.
• T suffered from dyspepsia and
indigestion for fifteen years,” says
W. T. Sturdevant of Merry Oakes,
N. C. 4 4 After 1 had tried many
doctors and medicines to no avail
one of my friends persuaded me to
try Kodol. It gave immediate re¬
lief. 1 can eat almost anything 1
want now and my digestion is good.
I cheerfully reemmend Kodol.”
Don’t try to cure stomach troubles
dieting. That only further weak¬
ens the system. You need whole¬
some, strengthening food. Kodol
enables you to assimilate what you
eat by digesting it without the
stomach’s aid.

Virulent Cancer Cured.
Startling proof of a wonderful
advance in medicine is given by
drnggist G. W. Roberts of Eliza¬
beth, W. Va. An old mau there
had long suffered with what doc¬
tors pronounced incurable cancer.
They believed his case hopeless till
he used Electric Bitters and applied
Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, which
treatment completely cured him.
When Electric Bitters are used to
expel bilious, kidney and microbe
poisons ae the same time this salve
exerts its matchles* heuling power,
blood diseases, skin eruptions,
uleers and sores vanish. Bitters

With all the railroad accidents
and murders, the railroads ot En¬
gland did not kill a single passen¬
ger during the past year. The
reason for the difference is the tact
that it is just as much against the
law to kill a person with a rotten
crosstie, bent railroad iron, w«-Cd 5
as with any other weapon.
Happy Time in Old Town.
“We felt very happy,” writes
R. N. Beviil Old Town. Va.,
“when Bucklen's Arnica Salve
wholly enred our daughter of a
bad case of scald head.” It de¬
lights all who use it for Cuts,Corns,
Burns, Bruises,Boils, Ulcers,Erup-
tious. Infallible tor Piles. Only
