Street Bridge.

Mr.. and Mrs. William II. Klair Of
near Elsmere had a narrow escape

Z general mix up, Mi and Mrs. Klair
were siightl.. injured. A horse was
impaled on a shaft and one buggy

fright by the double tree breaking
when near Market street bridge
across the Christiana, and dashing
along the causeway toward the bridge,
ln their flight the horses veered into
a carriage ahead containing MIR.
and Mrs. klair with great force.
The carriage was completely wreck
ed, the wheels being Knocked off it
and the body smashed. So great was
the force of the collision, that Mr..
and Mrs. Klair was lifted bodily and
hurled through the air. Mr.. Klair
alighted beneath the hoofs Of his
horse but managed TO roll out Of
danger.
Mrs. Klair. however, was pitched
on the center pole of the Biscuit Com.
pany's wagon, hetwcen-th the horses,
and the next instant she was project
ed, as by catapnlt, from the pole
and into the footway Of Market street
bridge. The frightened horses also
ran in to the foutwav, but checked
their flight before they could damage
the bridge.

Who Was Told That Her Life
Depended Upon a Surgical
kOperation.
The greatest misfortune of the
presentgeneration is that wives and
mothers are 80 frequently untitled
for the duties of life and domestic
enjoyment, by reason OF broken
down health and overtaxed systems.
The duties Of women OF all ages are
really moro worrying and wearing
than the troubles met with by men.
Social, household, and often business
cares press upon women very heav-
ily. In this way the delicate nerves
and sensitive organs become derand-
ed, suffering ensues, and life be-
comes burden that many carry to
the grave.
For the special weaknesses to
which women 80 often fall victims,
medical science has provided Paine's
Celery Compound. This framed
medicine has specific powers for
correcting the disorders of female
organism; it maintains health, gives
strength. vivasity, and good looks,
and imparts to the body the elastici-
ty Of girlhood. No other medicine
can so quickly Danish and perm ent-
ly cure painful ills. Mrs. L, S. Long,
