His exact term OF service 10 the State
was thirty years, eight months and If
teen days, and as he said TO a World re-
porter. 'It's q long time"
Brady was born in the North Of Ire
land in 1910. When quito boy he ran
away from home and went aboard an
English schoolship When he was sew

1t Seems Strange.

1t seems strange that anyone will
make use of quinine and take their
chances of suffering from such distress
as fullness of the head, headache, diz-
zy sensation, intestinal irritation, nau-
sea, paralysis, ETC., when all the good
effects OF quinine are secured by use
of that harmless discovery of DR.. John
Bull, of Louisville, KY, known as
Smiths Tonic Syrup. No harmful eff
iect ever follows the use of syrup, and
It tastes so good that children ask for
it. 1t has never yet failed to cure a
case OF chills and fever, even when
quinine and other preparations did no
good. 1t is well also to take dose
after any severe exposure as it will
keep off as well as cure cold.
