ment Near the Post Office.

A horse owned by c. T. Newton, of
West Millbury, furnished considerable
excitement for people in the neighbor-
hood of the post office shortly before
noon Friday The animal was left
hitched to weight in front of the
creamery on Myrtle street, while the
owner was attending to some business
in the store.
The blanket was blown off and the
horse became frightened. Just as the
animal started to run Mr. Newton came
out of the store and caught 1t by the
bride, but was thrown and the two
wheels passed over him. The horse con-
tinued his run to Madison street where
it turned, taking a portion of the fence
off. 1t was finally stopped by Officer
Condy.
Mr.. Newton was taken to the drug
store of William l.. Davis, at the corner
of Main and Austin streets, where his
bruises were attended to. The animal

SHE REMOVED HER BONNET.
Unused to City Ways, But She Appre-
- ciated the HumOr.

It was during one of the most severe snow:
storms which Chicago has experienced this
winter, and the umbrella which little bit
ola woman was carrying in front of her
face, standard-bearer fashion, came into
clinging contact with the smart bonnet
which was balanced on the head of the
comely Irishwoman who was making her
way. burdened with heavy valise, in the
opposite direction.

might have been posted upon her, so unmis-
takably did she belong to this class of Wis
itors; second glance betrayed the fact that
she was undoubtedly crossing the city from
one depot to another.
When the umbrella caught in her bonnet,
which was anchored to position by it's velvet
strings alone, the bonnet was worsted in
the struggle. The little woman sailed on
VIGOROUSLY, hardly stopping for the con-
ventional word of apology, and the out-of
town woman was left lamenting, her bonnet
hanging around her neck by the strings and
the thickly falling snow powdering her
glossy black hair. But not for long did she
lament.
"Sure," she said, merrily, as she lowered
her great satchel to convenient doorstep
and prepared to right her ill-treated head
gear again, '"Oi've been hearing for some
tonne that they made Their women take off

HE BROUGHT IT FROM THE
WORLDS FAIR.
X And kept it two years.
How he lost it at last.

The great Worlds Fair, at Chicago, in
1893, while it gave pleasure to many, gave
their visit to the White City. People were
1ured along the miles of wonderful exhib.
its by the new marve1s that met the gaze
at every step, and did not realize their
exhaustion until they dropped into a
chair in some breezy corner by the lake,
and cooled off," That's what began the
trouble, ia many cases. OF one such case,
Mrs. L. w. Stevens, Fort Fairfield. Me-,
writes: ~
"My husband took a severe cold and
cough two years ago last October time of
the Worlds Fair, which we attended. This
cough lasted over two years, was accom-
panied by splitting of blood, and nothing
could be found to help him, although vari-
Gus remedies were tried. Several doctors
were consulted, but their prescriptions
afforded no relief. Finally, saw an ad-
vertisement of DR.. Ayers Cherry Pectoral
in my paper and prevailed upon my hus-
band to get q bottle aud try It. The very
first dose helped him and he was com
pletely cured in short time. We feel
