gracefully over to be reflected
in the mirror beneath. The

Runaway Ends Fortunately

"A broken single tree this
moring caused a runaway dur
ing which DIR. j. L. Tamisiea of
this city had a most fortunate
escape from serious injury.
This forenoon he received a call
taking him to the Country
south of St. John. While en-
route home from the mission
and just as the Boyer bridge
was crossed one of the single
trees broke and striking one
of the horses caused the team
to runaway. They had gone
but a short distance when the
buggy tongue fell breaking off
about the center. The team by
this time was thoroughly fright
ened and every effort by the
Doctor to regain control of
them was ineffective. The
team continued to run until
they reached the bridge cross
ing the Seaton ditch. Here the
buggy struck the side rail and
the Doctor was thrown head
long from the buggy into the
ditch. Fortunately he struck
on soft ground and was unin-
jured but the buggy was wreck
ed and the horses generally cut
up and bruised.

A Good Thing

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton of DR. A Boschee, a celebrated Ger
man physician, and is acknowledged
to he one of the most fortunate discov-
cries in medicine. 1t quickly cures
coughs, colds and all lung troubles of
the severest nature, removing, as it
does, the cause of the affection and
leaving the parts in a strong and
healthy condition. 1t is not an exper
mental medicine, but has stood the
test of years, giving satisfaction in
every case. which its rapidly increasing
sale every season confirms. Two mill
ion bottles sold annually. Boschee's
German Syrup was introduced in the
United States in 1868, and is now sold
in every town and village in the civil
lied world. Three doses will relieve
any ordinary cough. Price Is cents.

linery skill. Fashion plates of

The shirtwaist man is going

say so, at any rate, and their
confidence is predicted upon
the solid fact that they have

readiness for the shirt waist
man, and the assurance, so they
claim, of any number of men
that they are going to go with
out their coats in public this
summer, public opinion or no
public opinion.
"The coatless man is going to
win out for a sure thing this
summer" said one of the ex-
elusive Fifth avenue haber-
dashers, "for the reason that
the chappies are going to take
up the custom of going without
thelr coats, no matter what may
be said, the chappies come pref
ty near to pointing the way in
matters of dress at any rate.
Lots of New York men who are
not cranks or novelty seekers
are going without their coats
on the streets of New York on
hot days this summer. We've
all got stacks of the proper
kind of shirts to be worn by the
coatless men, and we did not
lay these stocks in on a gamble
nor without having a pretty fair
idea of the nature of the sup
port that is going to be given
to the coatless idea thisl sum-
mer. Omaha Bee.
