14 DIE IN CKASH* '
j . . ,
Six Missing: After Seas Crush 0*aft
at Muskegon Pier
'Muskegon, Mich., Oct. 29|?-With
fourteen known dead and six or
more missing, only time can bring
an accurate count of the toll of the
great seas, which early yesterday
morning bodily lifted the Crosby
passenger steamer Muskegon, for
merly the City of Holland, and
smashed her to pieces on the piers
at the entrance to Muskegon har
bor. The list of dead is being ad
ded to almost- hourly.
The steamer, a side wheeler,
bound from Milwaukee, after out
riding a night of gale, made for the
harbor in the early morning dark
ness, but is said by Capt. Edwin
Miller to have struck the bar at the
entrance. The wheel paddles jam
med in the sand, checking headway,
and the great combers threw the
ship about and hurled her on to
the pier. There she hung, momen
tarily, pounding into wreckage, and
then slipped off into the deep chan
nel, going down in 50 feet of wa
ter. The vessel lies a stormtoni
tangle of steel and splintered wood,
effectually blocking the harbor en
trance.

RED BLOOD
MAKES BEST
COMPLEXIONS
Wholesome Complexion the Pride and
Glory of Healthy Men and
Women
Pepto-Mangan Makes Bed Cheeksj
Builds Up Tired Bodies?Helps Change
Pale Complexions to Bloom
of Health
The healthy, attractive woman?
and man too?with a wholesome com
plexion is the envy of those who feel
that, for them, such attractiveness is
impossible.
And yet health and attractiveness
are much a matter of good, red-blood
and unless a man or woman is afflict
ed with some deep-seated or serious
ailment, vigorous health, and personal
charm are within easy reach.
Pepto-Mangan is responsible for
the present health and happiness of
thousands who formerly were thin,
pale, languid and easily exhausted.
Pepto-Mangan helped place these
folks in the full-blooded, energetic,
vigorous class?and it probably can
do the same for you.
Pepto-Mangan contains the ele
ments that make rich, healthy blood.
And as a result of the increased sup
ply of red blood that Pepto-Mangan
creates, the entire system attains the
vigor that belongs to every man and
woman.
Pepto-Mangan is prepared in two
forms; liquid and tablets. They are
exactly alike in medicinal value.
Ask your druggist for "Gude's when
ordering Pepto-Mangan. Look for the
name "GudeV on the package.
