A Marvellous Escape

One of the most remarkable escapes
from instant death ever recorded occur
red at Kalamo, last week, at Levi Sweets,
while engaged in threshing. AS one of
the men was driving into the yard with
a loaded tank of water for the steamer
his little girl, ten years old. climbed
upon the hind end of the wagon unob-
served by the driver and three other men,
who were likewise riding on the tank.
She had got seated just in front of the
hind wheel when a younger sister came
up, and she proceeded ospull her on the
wagon while still in motion. Losing her
balance, she seized the rolling wheel to
save herself, and the wheel rolled over
her, striking her lett arm just at the arm
pit, passing diagonally across her body,
and going off at the right shoulder.
Strange to say, when the accident became
known, she was picked up still alive and
insisted that she could walk to the mouse
alone. DR.. Smell was sent for immedi-
ately and made an examination in twenty
minutes after. He found that the heavy
