Asleep on an Engine,

The signal man at Llandudno saved the
Irish mail passenger from what might have
proved terrible fate. The signal man at
the junction received message from the
signal man at Conway, the next station to-
ward Holyhead. that q light engine was
coming. The junction signal man know
ing that the Irish mail was due, decided to
run the engine into siding in order to per
nit the express to pass. He accordingly
rut up all the signal lights against the light
engine, but to his extreme astonishnent
the engine came straight into the Junction
at full speed, spept round the corner, dash
ing past all the danger signals,
and disappeared from view
down the line toward Chester A moments
reflection convinced the signal man that
both driver and stoker must be asleep. he
accordingly wired to the Colwyn Bay sta
ton signal man: Engine coming; driver
asleep; put fog signals on line.,"' The man
at Colwyn Bay was equally prompt,
for, running out of his box, he had hardly
time to lay a number of signals when the
engine came laundering along and an ex-
pIosion followed which effectually awoke
he men. The engine was stopped and run
back into a siding, when 1t was discovered
That the fire had gone out, that the water
had disappeared from the boiler, and that
the men had been asleep some time. In
ouiry resulted in their immediate DIS
charge. They had been fifteen hours on
duty.-[London Times.

ATLANTA, GA, May 10, 1881 have
known and watched the use of the remedy
known as Swift's Specific for twenty years,
and have seen more wonderful results from
it than any remedy inside or outside of the
Pharmacopeia. know its composition.
and do not hesitate to say that it is the
safest and most efficient antidote to all
blood poison that is known to science. For
diseases incident to spring, it has no equal
in assisting nature to throw off the impure
ties of the blood brought on by the slug
gish circulation in the winter months. L
know it to be entirely vegetable, being, pre-
pared from the roots and herbs OF our Geor-
Ella forests. As tonic and Alternative for
children, it is superior to everything, as it
cieanses the system, tones up the digestive
organs, and gives the little ones chance to
crow and fatten. A few bottles of this
remedy will benefit every man. woman ana
child in the land, and especially IN the
spring. Yours truly,

It is one of the peculiarities of the Amer
lean people to devote all their time to BUSH
ness, without regard to health, In their
rush for money and fame, many. lives are
ruined, which, with proper attention and
timely use OF a proper corrective, could be
saved. For this purpose there is nothing
equal to the "Prickly Ash Bitters." 1t re-
lieves the system of all impurities, purifies
the blood, and, by assisting nature, re-
stores original health and vigor.
