Could he be too late?
He tried to climb out OF the window,
but the seat on which he stood, broken
by the crash, fell beneath his weight,
and he was thrown back into the car.
He struck heavily and there was a
sharp pain In his head, and little Bes~

He seized the broken bell rope that
hung from its rings, and placing the
child on his back, bound the cord round

There was a terrible whirring sound
in his ears, and the blacklist night
seemed to settle over everything and
he became unconscious.
News of the disaster travelled fast,
and when the train bearing the wrack
ed passengers drew into Detroit there
were hundreds of anxious friends in

the dreadful collision.
In one corner, faint and weary, sat a
sad-faced mother, while her husband
wandered hYther and thfther in vain

shield yourself from atmospheric in

happen to get showed, sleeted, or rain

avoid the rheumatism or a dangerous

into the circulation by this genial stom-
achic, its invigorating and regulating
properties commend It to all apprecia-
