Narrow Escape From Drowning

~SsAO" AHSS"Po rum DrOWmtnS
Mrs. Edward McManemy and young
daughter had a narrow escape from
drowning on Wednesday morning. The lit
tie girl was playing on the sidewalk in East
Aberdeen and in some manner fell into
big slough. Mrs. McManemy rushed
to the rescue and jumped in after the
little girl, but as it was high tide and the
slough quite deep, was unable to get out,
and but for the timely arrival of a couple
OF men, whose names are unknown, who
succeeded in rescuing them at the last
moment, both mother and child would
undoubtedly have been drowned. 1t was
a very narrow escape and an experience
that Mrs. McManemy will never forget.

Although much is heard of the applica-
ton of electricity in the treatment of GER
tain classes of diseases, there is, according
to an electrical journal, but little positive
knowledge of the therapeutic effect Of the
various kinds of currents employed in med
ical treatment. That electricity produces
a marked reaction on the nervous system
is we'll known, but beyond this very little
can be said. The uses to which electricity
is Supplied in medical practice are numerous,
but there is not much uniformity in the
manner Of application or the kind Of cur
rent prescribed by different physicians for
the same complaint.

The Boston Journal of Commerce reports
the idea of a limney builder who gives it
as his opinion that a good hardwood wedge
will lift as much as jackscrew. The
wedge must e made of well seasoned oak
two feet long, with a taper of about one
fourth of an inch to the foot, and have one
half of its length ON good even surface.
By placing several of these wedges side by
side, using heavy sledge on one at time.
especially the one that starts the easiest, it
~ not to be wondered that taking strain
might be accomplished with wedges as well
as with iackscrews.
