PASSU7PSIC.

lanes Somers had a very narrow es-
cape from being run over by train Fri
day evening, Aug. 81. He attempted to
cross the track at the railroad crossing
in this village on his bicycle, in front of a
freight train, northward bound, think
ing he had ample time to do so. He had
however miscalculated the distance the
train, or himself, or both had to go, and
the engine struck the hind wheel of his
bicycle throwing wheel and rider into the
ditch beside the track and bet ween it and
a stone wall. He was thrown so near
the track that had an arm or foot been
thrown out little toward the track it
must inevitably have been crushed.
While he was somewhat bruised, enough
to lay him up for few days, and his
wheel practically ruined, he considers
himself exceedingly fortunate in escaping
with his life. Those who witnessed the
occurrence consider his escape from death
as something marvellous. He thinks next
time he shall cross the track behind the
train instead of before.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrah Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
1t is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.
