STRONG, HEALTHY, AND
FULL OF VIGOR AT 104.
V * * I K
-FIVE GRANDCHILDREN LIVING
AND MARRIED.
IV.r. Ralph Bullock of Brooklyn N. Y. f
Who Is In His 105th Year, Says He
Is as Young and Active as Any of
His Grandchildren--He Weighs 175
Pounds, and Hie Only Medicine Is
DL'fFY’S PURE MALT WHISKEY
“ T was always fond of life,” said Mr. Bullock to a reporter last evening. ‘‘I saw
a treat deal of it when I was young, and to this day I can laugh as heartily as the
youngest of my grandchildren. I am good
for some more years, and I scarcely feel
my age. My vigorous constitution and re
markable freedom from disease is due to
the daily use for many years of Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey. Though I am past. 104
years of age, I feel as young and hearty
as forty years ago. I weigh 175 pounds,
my appetite is good, and I still do all the
chores. I cannot say too much in favor of
Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey, which is in
deed a blessing to old people and invalids.
I know it has prolonged my life many
years.”
Mr. Bullock’s wife died twenty years ago,
and he is living with one of his grandchil
dren. Sixty-five grandchildren are mar
ried, and they are all strong and healthy.
His descendants who live In Fort Hamil
ton, Brooklyn and Manhattan are the Mc
Donald, Watts, Hurst, Bullock and Clark
families.
The health and vigor of Mr. Bullock’s
children and grandchildren show that their
father thought of his descendants and kept
nis constitution strong and vigorous with a
pure stimulant and tonic, leaving all kinds
c. rugs and medicine alone. So it is with a woman; she should keep herself healthy
nr ' • trong. If the fathers and mothers kept their constitutions strong and free from
di: . ase there would be no sickly, puny children. It is an easy matter to keep the
1 ; . in a state of normal health by using Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey, the only ab-
pr'"* ruro stimulant and tonic which is free from fusel oil and other dangerous
ingredients Do not fill your system with patent medicines and drugs.
'.’i., nre thousands of cases similar to that of Mr. Bullock’s, and if every one
, r --i p-.ffv’u Pf're Malt Whiskey as directed, the average life would be prolonged at
h nt twenty years.
r.i " 's Pure Malt Whiskey has cured millions in the last 50 years. It is pre-

Things We
Like Best
Often Disagree With Ue
Because we overeat of them. Indi*
ges in follows. But there’s a way to
escape such consequences. A dose of a
good dlgestant like Kodol will relive yon
at once. Your stomach it limply too
weak to digest what you eat. That’s all
Indigestion Is. Kodol digests the food
without the stomach’s aid. Thus the
stomach rests while the body is strength
ened by wholesome food. Dieting is un
necessary. Kodol digests any kind of
good food. Strengthens and Invigorates.

Toledo, O., March 2.—Although the
danger of a serious flood in Toledo is
passed today when the ice moved out
of the ’ . r.nv. s? river, it is not true of
other <■ in this section of Ohio.
Specials to The Bee from northwest
Ohio towns show that, the situation is
serious at Findilay, Tiffin, Marysville,
upper Sandusky and neighboiing
towns.
At. Findlay Sam Moffatt was drown
ed in the street. Nelson Jaeobs and
Henry Thomas, also of Findlay, weal
thy farmers, attempted to drive
through a low place in the road, the
horse floundered in 5 feet of water.
The men and horses were drowned.
At Fremont. David Lively was driv
Ing along the river road and in at
tempting to pass a low spot was. swept
away by the current of water and
drowned. All the rivers are higher
than they have been for 20 years.
Steam and electric railroad tracks
have been washed out and bridge* are
In danger. Persons living in the low-
lands have been forced to abandon
their houses.
How oPea you hear it remarked :
“It’s only a cold.” and a few days
later learn that the man is on his back

WATERS ARERECEDING
Flood Danger Has Passed In
Ohio Valley.
THOUSANDS ARE OUT OF WORK.
Mississippi Reported Rising at Mem
phis—Farming Lands Inundated for
Miles—Tennessee Rivers Are Also
at High Water Mark.
Pittsburg, March 2.—The rivers are
almost within their hanks, and as the
water is falling rapidly, and at the
headwaters the wrost of the flood 1 may
be considered a« over. At 10 o’clock
this morning the marks showed 25
feet and receding at the rate of halt
& foot an hour.
Only half a dozen times in a cen
tury has the flood of yesterday been
beaten, and fiom the fact of the sud
den rise, the damage has not been
as great as the floods when the wateir
did not reach as high a stage. Indi
rectly the loss is heavy, as all the
mills and factories fronting the two
rivers have been ocmpelled to close
on account of the water getting into
the fly pits, and probably 40,000 men
will be thrown out of employment for
sevenal days. This will mean a heavy
las® in wages. In Southern Pennsyl
vania the streams are all overflowing
and causing more or less damage to
houses and farms that lay in their
course.
With the falling of the water a mass
of mud and sediment is left deposited
on the lowland thorouoghfares of the
two cities. The little pools of water
are frozen over and the sidewalks are
charged with sheets of ice. The
water in many of the cellars froze dur
ing the night, and the health authoni-
ties are apprehensive of much sick
ness following the wake of the flood.
As quickly as the waters have receded
gangs of men will be put to work and
the flooded district thoroughly cleaned
up of refuse, etc.
Memphis, Tenn., March 2.—After re
maining stationary for 24 hours, the
Mississippi river at this point began
to rise slowly again today, and is now
1.2 feet al>ove the danger line. A great
area of farming land west of the river
is inundated, ami in many instance?
farmens have abandoned their homes.
The overflow prevails in the lowlands
as far south as Helena. There has
been no break in the levee system, and
the engineers are keeping a sharp look
out all along the line.
Wilkesbarre, Pa., March 2.—The
dange flnrom flood ended today when
the river, after reaching 21.6 feet be
gan failing. This was due to the cold
weather, which has ended the thaw.
The losses so far have been confined
to a few washout* andi the flooding oi
some mines. If the cold weather con
tinues no further damage is antici
pated.
Chattanooga, March 2.—The Ten
nessee river reached the crest of the
tide this morning at 31 feet and is fall
ing at all points above. At this point
It. is within 2 feet of the danger line.
Lowlands are submerged, but no great
damage is reported.
Louisville. March 2.—River rising;
canal 15.6 eeit; falls, 19.4; locks, 41.f
feet. Partly cloudy and cool.
Workinghen to Hold Fair.
New York. March 2.—It is announc
ed that what will he the biggest wo: !<•
Ingman’s fair in the history of this
city will be held in Grand Central
palace from March 28 to Anril 5. It
is expected that 150,000 persons will
attend. The trades unions, the work,
ingmen’s sick and death benefit soeie
ties, singing societies and other labor
organizations are working for its suc
cess. All sorts of entertainments
have been arranged and hundreds ol
donations, valued at thousands of do!
lars, have been obtained. Women will
have a large share in making the fair
a success..
Got Ten Days of Life.
Jackson. Miss., March 2.—Joe Camp
hell, the negro who cheated the gel
lows for a period of 10 days by t 11
ing a very plausible story about hav
ing accomplices in his crime, was
hanged at Yazoo City Saturday. Gov
ernor Txmgino granted the eondie.mmrt
ma<n a ten days’ reprieve in order tc
allow him to testify before the Yazoo
county giand jury against his alleged
accomplices. The grand Jury found
that Campbell’s story was pure fici.on
and failed to bring indictments against
the accused parties.
Chicago Gas Employes Strike.
Chicago, March 2.—As a result ol
the discharge of 28 employes who be
came members of new unions formed
in the meter department and among
the statement takers, all the union
workmen employed by the Peoples
Gas Light aind Coke company were
ordered on strike today. The com
pany employs 2,600 men, only a small
per cent of whom are union workers.
About 250 men are affected by today’?
strike.
Monster Skeleton Found,
Jacksoin. Miss., March 2.—The skele
ton of some monster of the past ages,
supposedly a mastodom-saurus, were
unearthed yesterday at the mouth ol
Town ereok, a short distance south ol
this city and some of the bones will
be sent to the Smithsonian institution.
The skeleton appears to be that of
an amphibious animal, and a portion
of the Jaw bone dug up by the
wo:I t.on is nearly 4 feet In length.

BANDITS WRECK TRAIN.
B. & O. Fart Express Runts Into an
Cpen Sw:icii.
Washington, In !., March 2.—Train
wreckers late last n'ght in an attempt
to ditch No. d”. one of the last ex
press trains on the Baltimore and Ohio
Southwestern, wrecked a fast freight,
resulting in the death of Fireman Jo
seph Hughey, of this city, and Har
vey Friend, of Odin, 111., who was
learning the road, the fatal injury of
Brakeman W. L. Lucas, of this city,
near Lebanon, 111., last night. Engi
neer W. A. Wendling escaped by
jumping.
The train was passing Bennett’s
mine, a lonely hollow, 24 miles east
of St. Louis, when the engine dashed
into an open switch and turned over.
Engineer Wendling jumped from the
upper side of the cab while the other
men were buried beneath the debris.
Eleven freight ears piled up one the en
gine, and fire broke out in the debris.
The laoilroad officials believe the
wreck was caused by persons leaving
the switeh open, with the intention of
ditching and robbing the fast express
train, which carries considerable
money. The freight train arrived a
few minutes ahead of the express and
was wreckedi and the passenger train
escaped.
Thousands Have Kidney Trouble
and Don’t Know it.
How To Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
f-v t rJ sediment or set-
t~v Ml ' Mo? indicates an
foL'fcVTo) unheal % condi-
Bon of the kid-
i- 'eH A l/l 1 \ neys; if it stains
your linen it is
evidence of kid
ney trouble; too
frequent desire to
pass it or pain in
the back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr, Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
It, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-ftoot is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes.
