Charles Hugill, Attempted Suicide While
Mentally Deranged.
Mr.. Charles Hugill, machinist re-
siding on Gilman street, attempted to
take his own life Monday afternoon by
swallowing poison. Nothing but the
close proximity of physician and
prompt measures saved him.
Mr.. Hugill had been i'll for several
weeks, notice of his condition having
recently appearedin the Leader. He
became mentally deranged and at
times was almost uncomfortable. About
the time his arrangement was first
noticed he had been drinking and his
ailment was at first ascribed to alco-
holism. Later developments showed,
however, that he had become unbal-
anced from other causes and that his
condition was very serious. Monday
afternoon he became impressed with
the idea that he must kill himself and
sought the poison route. He secured
possession of bottle of bromide which
had been left as medicine by his ply ST.
clan and drank the entire contents.
His friends feared that the big dose
would be fatal and DIR. Lambert was
hastily summoned, but the bromide
apparently had no effect upon him
Soon afterward he broke away from
those who were attempting to pacify
him and ran down cellar, where he Sc
cured the fluid jar used as battery for
the electric door bell. There were sew.
eral Jumps of undissolved blue vitlol in
the jar and these he swallowed before
they could be taken away from him.
Doctors Lambert and Eddy immediate
ly applied stomach pump to the
would-be suicide and after several hours
of labor succeeded in counteracting the
effects Of the poison to such an exten,
that he will probably recover from the
dose. Steps will be taken at once tc
have the unfortunate man adjudged
insane and sent to the Athens State
Hospital for treatment
Hugill is about 2s years of age anc
has wife and one child. He had beer
employed at Leidecker's Tools Works
previous to his illness and was consid
cred a good workman.

TRANSPORTING LIVE FISH.
How They Are Delivered without
Injury at Inland Towns in
Denmark.

"A new method of transportation for
live fish from seaports into the interior
has just been patented by Danish fish
dealer, ?. II. Lohman, of Copenhagen,
and the system is SO simple and yet so
perfect that one wonders why il has
never been thought of before. The in
ventor, says the Philadelphia Record,
had number of large bags made of
waterproof ma terial, strong oilcloth ap-
pearing to give the best results. These
bags, after being filed with water and
the fish to be sent inland, are laced at
the top and either suspended in the
cars from hooks in the roof of the car,
or from folding frames taking almost
no space and allowing the close hanging
of these bags so that there is but little
movement between the bags. They
may also be set upright alongside each
other, but suspension has been found
to be preferable. particularly for long
distances. Several transports of fish
made over long distances have shown
the splendid features O: the new sys-
tenn, for the fish arrived in excellent
condition after l6-hour ride.

Consolation In Adversity.

The mother never loves her child moro tenderly than when she holds it in her arms and submits it to a painful surgical operation which saves its life. So our Heavenly Father chastises those whom he loves, and never arc we so secure of eternal life as when wo meekly receive from his hand tho cup of bitter ness.-Rev. P. J. Flaherty, Catholic. Philadelphia.

Every woman should realize that her health IS like bank account At the ont set she has so much deposited to her credit ln the bank of health. If she draws out more than she puts in she will soon over draw her account. An over-drawn account Tn the bank of health means one of two things, life of hopeless suffering or an early death.
 The woman who neglects her health in womanly way is making big drafts on her account with the bank of health and will soon be physical bankrupt Disorders of thls description wreck a woman's general neaith quicker than anything else in the world. They soon transform a healthy. happy, a1niable woman into a weak, sickIy. tretful and Respondent invalid They ut terly unfit woman for wifehood or mother hood For all disorders of this nature Dr. P1erce's Favorite Prescription is the best of all medicines. It acts directly on the delicate and important organs concerned In maternity, giving them health, strength. vigor and elasticity It relieves pain allays inflammation, cheeks debilitatine drains, and quickly subdues c. q TT sytr1p toms.
