Some Of the greatest men that ever lived were of small stature and insignificant ap- pearance. The read will readily recall many instances. Very small are Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, but they are far more effective than the huge old fashioned pills which are so difficult to swallow and so harsh in their action. The "Pellets" are gen. tie and never cause constipation. For liver, stomach and bowel Arrangements they have no equal.

Another narrow escape was made at the
depot in this place on Saturday night, Of
last week. This time it was Charlie Hines.
a boy about Is years old. He jumped on
freight train, and in 80 doing his foot
slipped between the bumpers. Fortunately
for him he had just put on pair Of new
and very heavy shoes, and this saved his
foot from being crushed and probably
himself from being dragged under the
wheels and cut to pieces. 1t is only a
matter Of time. If some Of the parents Of
the boys in this place could sec the reck-
less manner in which their Sons Jump on
and off Of moving trains they would not
rest 80 easily at home while their boys
wore roaming around at their sweet will
Some parents will have a fearful awake
ming. When they are least expecting 1t
the bloody, crushed and mangled body VI
a son will be carried home to them. Then
they will blame the railroad employees,
forgetful of the fact that they cannot at
tend to their exacting duties and watch a
swarm Of boys who are determined to do
as they please, notwithstanding all that
the agent and trainmen have done to
keep them off the cars and save their lives
and limbs. And may be the heart broken
father or mother will then recall, as in
agony of mind and body, they hang over
the pitlful remains Of their boy, now
crushed out of oil semblsnce Of hu manity,
how often thCy saw the HERALD's VAIN
ing and how lightly they dimissod it from
their minds. Whatever may happen 10
one of these train jumping boys, we at
least have done our duty, and we can
testify that Mr.. Chapman, our agent here,
has faithfully done his. In all probability
no one will be TO blame but the parents Of
the unfortunate victim.
