when he came out she collared him and
took the bottle away from him. He

For nn Editor to Recommend Patent
Mediciness
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard. N. o.
1t may be question whether the ed
itor of a newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as preventative of suffer
ing we feel it duty to say good
word for Chamberlain's CQlic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found it reliable. In many cases
dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while a physician Is await
ed. We do not believe in depending inn
plicitly on any medicine for cure. but
we do believe that IL bottle of Cham
berlain's Diarrhoea Remedy We're KEEP,
on hand and administered at the incep.
tion of an attack much suffering might
be avoided and in very many cases the
presence of a physician would not bt
required. AT least this has been oul
Iexperience during the past twent,
years. For sale by druggists.

Janitor Thomas Nc Larnan, of the
court house. was surprised Wednesday
evening when he entered the court
room to lock it up for the day to find
a man occupying the judges chair. The
janitor thought at first the fellow was
dead but on shaking him the intruder
was found to be very much alive and
entered a vigorous protest against be-
ing disturbed. The man proved to be
an old soldier from the Home named
William ID. Mahana, and as he was
evidently mentally unbalanced he was
turned over to the officers and locked
| up. Deputy Garvey telephoned to the
Soldiers Home, and learned that q
search was then being instituted for
Mahana. and that he had escaped from
the hospital, where he has been con-
fined for some time. The officials Of the
institution sent for Mahana and he was
taken back to the hospital. While ir
jail he insisted that he was in the hos
/ pital and was going to stay there.

What might have been a serious ac-
cident occurred few minutes past
noon today on Center street, between
Church and Linn. Master Leo Boucher,
second son of DIR. and Mrs. r. II. Bou-
cher was riding a bicycle, and having
but recently learned to ride and not yet
being an adept, he ran between q pair
of horses hitched to wagon. Forum
ately they were very gentle and halted
at once. The front wheel of the bicycle
was smashed almost beyond recog-
milton, but the young rider escaped with
only a few bruises and little rlerv-
BUSINESS.
