SAD ACCIDENT.
The Fatal A ceidentaI shooting In Now

London.
 George Waldo Bishop of New London, clerk of the sewer board of the latter place, was accidentally shot through the brain Sat urdsy and died an hour later. He was in Raub's gun shop when the owner of a re- volver of the British bulldog pattern called to get the weapon, which had been left for repairs. Mir. Raub picked mp the revolver, a self-cocker, and snapped it. The ball took effect in young Bishops forehead, penetra- ting the brain and causing death an hour later. It appears that the workman who re paired the revolver, contrary to the usual custom, loaded it at the request of the owner and then turned it over to Raub without comment Raub had no idea that the weapon was loaded, yet he failed to make an exam ination, as was his rule. Raub is completely overcome by the affair.

To be freed from the dangers of suffocation while lying down; to breathe freely, sleep soundly and undsturbed; to rise refreshed, head clear brain active and free from pain or ache; to know that no poisonous, putrd matter defles the breath and rots away the delicate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to feel that the system does not through it's veins and arteries suck up the poison that is sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed blessing beyond all other human enjoy yments. To purchase immunity from such fate should be the object of all afflicted But those who have tried many remedies and physicians despair of relief or cure
