great Improvement has been made.
Not only will it be serviceable, but it
bears quite the appearance Of a boule-

MAPLE MOUNT.

MAPLE MOUNT, June l5.--Much eX-
element prevailed in our midst on last
Friday at noon over runaway horse
spree. \ colored boy in the employ of
Mr. Scotield Fraser was returning from
work on horseback when the animal
became frightened at the falling of a
trace chain, and ran away, soon freeing
his back of the rider. The boys left
foot became entangled in the geering,
the horse dragging him some distance,
and when in a few feet of the river
bank he became disentangled he was
in an unconscious condition. Mr..
Fraser had DR.. Pillow summoned imme-
diately and he soon administered med
ical aid. The boy though with broken
ribs, cuts and bruises on the head,
sprained ankle, left shoulder and arm
terribly bruised is still alive and will
probably recover. "A stitch in time
saves nine" is a wise saying. There
fore laborers who ride horses equipped
with harness, should always unite hame
strings before mounting.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused 10y an inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed
condition of the mucous surfaces. We will

Food, undigested, is poison. Digest
ed, it is life and strength. Millions of
us suffer from Indigestion, but we often
don't know it. We think it is some
thing else. Even doctors often mistake
the symptoms. Pale, thin people, who
are over worked, who need strength,
who seem in want of proper food, should
take Shaker Digestive Cordial. 1t is
astonishing what food will do, when
properly digested. 1t will make you
strong, revive you, refresh you, sustain
you, make you fat, restore your color
make muscle, brain fibre, courage, en-
throw off disease and keep you healthy

opposite, but indigestion can be cured
