Almost a Severe Accident.

The old story! Another case Of the
clegis pin coming out.
Last week Mr. George Divall was
moving from the Lancaster House to
his farm in Crawford county. On
his return. in driving along one of
our streets cleyis-pin came out, the
single-tree fell on the horses heels,
the horse sprang forward and the
wagon tongue came down. Others
who have seen or had similar eXper-
fences, can letter realize his perdica-
ment. It's impossible under such
circumstances to prevent runaway,
even with the most dOcile horses.
The horses ran in this case, the tongue
struck an obstruction and threw Mr..
OVAL and the seat he was on from
sixteen to twenty feet. He III; on the
seat instead of the ground, which
probably saved him from being Grip

seat. He was very fortunate in es-

committee on military affairs Thurs
day discussed the question of hazing
at the West Point military academy

dealt with. The question came up
in connection with the military acad-
envy bill and it was decided to incor-
porate the following provision in that
| bill as an amendment:
Under the direction of the secretary OF
| war the superintendent of the United
| States military academy shall make and
enforce such rules and regulations as will
| prevent the practice of hazing: and any
| cadet found guilty of participating in
| such practice shall be expelled from the
academy and shall not be reappointed to
| the corps of cadets therein nor to the
army of the United States"

The DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from mothers ignorance or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
Of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina-
ton but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
