People talk sometimes of blood-making medicines. But
no medicine can make blood. Blood is made from food
digested and converted into nutrition. The medicine which
increases the blood supply of the body must do it by curing
tlie diseases of the stomach and its allied organs of digestion
and nutrition, so that the obstacles to tlie perfect nutrition of
the body may be entirely removed. When this is done the
nutritive elements of the food eaten are perfectly extracted and
in the form of blood feed the weakened organs and wasted
tissues of the body.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It
removes the causes of corrupt and poisoned blood, so making
the blood pure. It increases the supply of nutrition received
from food, so making the blood plentiful. "Golden Medical
Discovery ” cures scrofula, eczema, tetter, salt-rlieum, boils,
eruptions, pimples, rheumatism, debility and other diseases
which have their origin in impure or diseased blood.
Mr. Chas. Hunwick, of Lenox, Macomb Co., Mich., writes: ”1 have

Golden Medical Discovery right along. I can now walk, quite well with

Prominent Young Men Engage In Fa
tal Fight.
Huntington, W. Va.. Doc. 31.—Jus.
Chambers, a prominent young man liv
ing in Ha:bourville, is. dying, and
George Thompson, of Huff Creek, Ix>
gan county, is thought to be mortally
wounded, the result of a duel with
knives, fought near I.ogan. Ixjgan
county, this morning. The men were
both employed by a prominent lumber
company and for several weeks had
been at outs over the fact that both
loved the same young woman. This
morning they met and words passed.
Each drew a knife and they plunged
at each other. Chambers was the
first to fall, having his body punctur
ed in half a dozen places.
The keen blade of his antagonist’s
knife at one stroke almost complete
ly disemboweled him. Before he fell
he inflicted injuries to Thompson that
will, it seems certain, cause bis death.
Thompson attempted to escape, but
fell leas than 2ou yards from the scene
of the tragedy from the loss of blood.
Chambers is from one of the most
prominent families in this country and
had been employedi as bookkeeper.
The tragedy is one of the bloodiest
known in Logan county in years.

The inquiry has not yet brought out
evidence of a conspiracy between the
dealers or on the part of the railroads
or of both, although some of the for

thousands of tons of coal. They,
however, claim it is for contracts al
ready made and not their own. At

can ue shown the coal is really not
held for contracts, the dealers can be
prosecuted for withholding it from the
market. Several railroad' men de
