ACCIDENTAL DEATHS.
Caused bv Carelessneaa.

Caused by CarelesSnes9s
The majority of people die sooner than
hey should. Evidence Of this fact is grow
ing daily. Waring says; "Disease is not a
consequence of life; it is due to unnatural
conditions Of living neglect, abuse, want.
Or. Stephen Smith, on the same subject,
Man is born to health and long life dis
ease is unnatural, death, except from old
ige is accidental, and both are preventable
by human agencies" This is almost invari.
ubly true Of death resulting from heart dis.
ease. Careless OveT-eXertion, intemperate
use Of tea, coffee, tobacco, alcoholic or Othel
-timulants are generally the causes of this
difficulty, and indifference to its progress re
suits in sudden death, or long sickness end
ing in death. By the newspapers it can be
seen that many prominent and hundreds OF
persons in private life die from heart dis
case every day.
If you have any of the following symp-
toms; shortness Of breath, palpitation, irreg
u'ar pulse, tainting and smothering spells,
pain in shoulder, side, or arm, swollen
ankles, etc, begin treatment Immediately for
heart disease. IfyOu delay, the consequence
may be serious.
For over 20 years Dr. Franklin Miles
the eminent specialist has made a profound
study of heart disease, its causes and cure,
and many of the leading discoveries in thai
direction are due to him. His New Heart
Cure is absolutely the only reliable remedy
for the cure of heart disease, as is proved
by thousands of testimonials from grateful
persons who have used it.
James Pain, editor ofthe Cory, Pa leader
states: after an apparent recovery from three
months of la grippe, / fell on the street uuCOn-
sciOus from heart disease. In one month from
that time / was unable to walk across my room,
and my pulse beat from So to ll6 times n minute
l then used Dr. Miles New Heart Cure, and az
once became stronger. After using six bottles !
was able TO work as usual and walk a mile every
day, my pulse ranging from 6S to go Dr. Miles
remedy Is not only preventive but cure.

SPORTING NOTES.

Zimmerman has won tOt bicycle races
this season, the greatest number ever cap
tured in tho same length of time by one
rider.
The luckiest boxers come from Boston.
During the year 1893 they have monopolized
the bouts in which big purses were at stake.
George W. Orton, Canadian champion
runner, viii take course at the University
Of Pennsylvania. This step Of Orton's
means that the University of Pennsylvania
will win the mile Intercollegiate next year
unless Tommy Connect enters Yale or Har-
ward.
Italy wants the next international bicy-
cling championship meet.
John jameson of Dublin, owner Of the
yacht lreN, will build yachta and challenge
for the Americas cup in 1894.
Julian p. Bliss Chioago's Pocket Her
cules," will not race next year, he says.
The pluoky little rider won 5000 worth Of
prizes during the past season.
W. w. Windle recently rode a mile with
a flying start in minute 90 45 seconds. H.
O. Tyler covered the same distance with
standing start in 2 minutes rs seconds.

pletic autumn apple, his collar was wilted,
and his breath and two suspender buttons
were missing, but he was as happy as a lark
in the new found Joy of bowling.
The fat mans emotions are the emotions
Of nearly every person who learns to bowl.
The sport is not only Joy, but it is
healthful recreation, conducive to hardened
muscles, sound slumber and good appe-
tite. Just now a vast army of bowlers all
over the country are preparing for the fall
campaign, for the sport has grown wonder
fully in popularity At New York, where
the early Dutch colonists played the game
Of bowls on Bowling Green away back in
the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries,
there are now over6O clubs, with member
ship of over 1900.
The present game Of bowling or tenpins
is developement of the ancient British
game of bowls, but the Romans doubtless
introduced the sport into Great Britain.
The origin of the game is shrouded in mys-
| terry, but there are traces Of it in Roman,
| Chinese and Biblical history In the early
game of bowls, which very closely resem-
bled the duck on a rock" sport, we'll known
to every country boy, round stones, called
| bowlers, were rolled at rock a certain dis
tance away. 1t appears that the English
elaborated the sport and hurled fat spher-
ical stones at a set Of ninepins. The game

wheel" gait has covered a mile in the record
time of 2:O4, and they are thus exactly even
in their contest for the honorof being the
worlds swiftest PAGER.
Mascot won the pacing championship last
year and remained in undisputed posses
sion of the record until Sept. 10 of this sea-
son, when Flying Jib paced a mile in 2:Oi
at Washington park, Chicago, equaling the
champions performance Mascot's owner
has since issued a challenge to the world
in which he offers to match Mascot against
any PAGER or trotter Although a race be
tween Mascot and Flying Jib would be a
very interesting event, there seems TO be no
probability that the great PAGERS viii meet.
Both will continue their attacks upon the
time record, however, and their struggle
for the pacing crowns win be watched with
interest hv lor ,uon.
