A Sad Accident.

Last Thursday about about ten o'clock
sad and what may yet prove to be a
very serious accident occurred at this
place, the victim being Arthur Frost
He was off-bearing in the mill, while the
edgerman put a twelve foot plank in the
edger making 2x4, three wide. The
plank had gone out Of his sight and he
thought it had gone through on its way
to the trimmer, and as he was reaching
for another piece he heard an unusual
noise, and like shot the three 2x4s went
by him. At distance of sixty feet Mr..
Frost was working. The one piece
curvsd enough to strike Mr.. Frost a
tremendous blow on the left limb below
the hip joint, shattering the bone and
making a flesh wound as large as mans
fist, and throwing him across the car
rage track. This hapI ened when Earl
Callin, the sawyer, was back turning a
log. He started the carriage for the saw
at speedy gait, and only by chance did
he notice Mr.. Frost lying in front OF the
carriage. He reversed the carriage in an
instant. Had it gone two feet farther Mr.,
Frost would have been crushed in two.
The 2x4 scantliDg run to point. This
was pulled out by Emmett Wood, who
was injured in like manner about eight
months before, of which note was made
in the paper at the time. The wounded
man was carried to the Central Pennsyl-
vania Lum ber Co.'s Office, where his
wounds were dressed by Drs. Brewer
and Yingling. In the afternoon he was
removed to the Warren hospital, accom-
panied by DR.. Yingling. At the present
writing it is unknown whether the limb
can be saved, but we hope Tor the best.
Arthur certainly has had hard luck; he
was one of the typhoid fever victims and
had only worked few weeks since re-
covering. He and his family have the
sympathy of the entire community.

Dwelling House Destroyed and Mother
and Child Seriously Burned.

The dwelling house of Perry s. Moore,
on his farm at the mouth of JugbaDdle
run, on Tionesta creek, Kingsley town
ship about eight miles from Tionesta,
was totally destroyed by fire last Wednes-
day noon with all its contents, and it was
only through the heroism of Mrs. Moore
that their baby boy was saved from a
terrible death. The house was a COM
Portable two-story frame building and
the family of Mr.. and Mrs. Moore consists
of daughter, aged six years, and two
sons, one aged four years and the other
one year and eight months. Mr.. Moore
was absent for t1e day at work in the
woods and about noon Mrs. Moore went
to the barn to let the cattle out, leaving
the two older children at play in the
kitchen and the baby asleep in rocking
chair in the sitting room. She had been
at the barn only few minutes when the
daughter called to her that the house was
filling up with smoke. BY this time the
flames we're breaking through the roof
Thinking only of her imperilled children
the brave mother ran to the house and as
she passed through the kitchen she sent
the two older children out of the build
ing. When she opened the sitting room
door wall of fire coming from the stair
way barred her progress. She could hear
the baby crying and without moments
hesitation dashed through the flames TO
the chair bed, the clothing of which was
on fire. Clasping the baby in her arms
she again passed through the flames and
out by the door by which she entered.
She was compelled to roll in the snow to
baby's clothes. Gathering the children
and wrapping the baby in an overcoat
which fortunately was hanging out on a
clotbeslines, the mother and children
crossed Tionesta creek on the ice and
walked half mile to the home of Nelson
Moore, where DR.. Detar, of Keliettville,
was summoned to attend them. The
baby was seriously burned about the face
and hands, but at last ACCOUNTS was i'm
proving and will recover. Mrs. Moore
was badly burned on the hands, face and
shoulders, her dress being burned to the
skin. In this condition and without any
wraps for herself and the older children,
she was compelled to walk in the bitter
cold to the brothers house. Not thing
was saved from the house and Mr.. Moore
places his loss on the building and con-
tents at 1000, on which there was no
insurance. Mr.. Moore's aged mother
made her home with them. but fortu-
nately was visiting at Nebraska on the
day of the fire. The loss is a very heavy
one for Mr.. Moore, who is an honest and
hard working citizen. At the solicitation
of Rev. W. o. Calhoun and others the
good people of Nebraska, Kellettville,
Whig Hill and Tionesta have come nobly
to the rescue with gifts of cash, furniture.
clothing, etc., and the family will soon be
comfortably located in smaller house
which stood near the burned one. We
understand Mr.. Moore will rebuild in
the spring.

Letter TO Chas. Bankhead,
TioneStG, Pa.

DEAR SIR:-Have you found this out?
You need less of Devoe lead-andzinc for
job than of anything else; less gallons
less money.
NJ. A. Thomas, painter, Lynchburg
Va, has found it out; he writes: "The
first job l did with your paint l esti-
mated 81 gallons; had IL gallons lett over.
Since then l have not used any other
kind of paint but Devoe lead-and zinc; i
recommend it to all my customers.
When 1 commence a job, tack up a card
reading as follows; M. A. Thomas, con-
tractor, Devoe PAINT
Putting it on costs two or three times
as much as the paint. Have you found
this out? You can paint Devoe in less
time: less time; less money.
Have you found this out? Devoe wears
longer than anything else.
You don't object to long time between
jobs. Your customer likes it. And you
like what he likes. 1t keeps your GUS
