Henry Kolterman Injured.

Henry Kolterman, son of VIM

fortune to have his leg broken Sunday.
Mr.. Kolterman wanted a steer drove
out of the lot in which it was feeding
and sent his oldest boy out to do it.
That boy being unsuccessful the next
Oldest was sent to assist, but the steer
still seemed inclined to stay in the
pasture of it's present location. The
two sons being unable to accomplish
the work the third entered the field
but still the steer showed an obstinate
spirit and Nj. Kolterman mounted his
horse and thought he would try. The
steer did not seem to regard the ranch
man with any particular fear, and its
actions would lead one to believe its
mind was made up to not go to another
pasture. Mr.. Kolterman dismounted
and waving his hat at the animal start
cd it on the run, but it made a head
er for the third son, Henry, who tried
to es. ape, but the steer was too swift
for the boy and overtaking him butted
him on the left hip throwing him to
the ground and breaking the leg. Mr.
Kolterman brought the boy in to the
doctors Monday morning.

is 1T RIGHT

For an Editor to Recommend Patent

From Sylvan Valley News; Brevrad

1t may bea question whether the
editor of a news paper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market yet as a preventative of suffer-
ing we feel it a duty to say a good
word for Chamberlains Collie Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy. We
have known and used this medicine
in our family for twenty years and
have always found it reliable. In
many cases a dose of this remedy
would save hours of suffering while a
physician is awaited. We do not believe
in depending implicitly on any
medicine for q cure but we do believe
that il a bottle of Chamberlain's
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand
and administered at the inception of
an attack, much suffering might be
avoided and in very many cases the
presence of a physician would not be
required. At least this has been our
experience during the past twenty
years. Tor sale by e. B. Cook & Co.
