such a manner that it could not be re-
paired to stand imitation on the spot,
but they wanted something in it and
SO they filled it with sand. At the
place where they were when the tire
collapsed the road ran close to the
ocean front, and they took the tire of
the wheel and one of the men climbed
with it down the hulkhead Of the beach
and there he set to work.
when he had worked il lot of
sand he would hold the tire up and
shake the sand down in it and then he
would put in some more, and so on
till he had the tire filled.
This was something new to me,
but friend tells me he has seen it
done before and that sand in the tire
is better than nothing, that it will
cushion the tire in some measure at
least and keep the machine from
pounding down on that wheel with its

A Man Of 70 After Finding Coffee Hurt
Him, Stopped Short.

When man has lived to be 70 years
old with 40-year-old habit grown to
him like a knot on tree, chances are
he'll stick to the habit till he dies.
But occasionally the spirit Of youth
and determination remains in some
men to the last day of their lives.
When such men do find any habit of
life has been doing them harm, they
surprise the Oslerites by degree of

good, red blood. When the blood is red
and healthy there can be no debility.
The relation between the blood and
nervous system is such that the pills
have very decided action upon the
nerves and they have cured many severe
nervous disorders, such as partial pa
