as the blood becomes richer the
nerves stronger, and the bodily organs
more vigorous and regular in action,
digestion improves, you sleep and rest
better. headaches disappear, and irri-

pass away, but only to return again,
unless active restorative treatment is
used, such as DR.. A. w. Chase's Nerve

H. HILLESHEIM'S ESCAPE.
Close Call to Death or Serious Injury
at MadeIia.

Mr. Henry Hilesheim has every reas-
on to feel grateful that he was not killed
or seriously injured yesterday afternoon,
says The Madela, Messenger. lie hitched
up his team of colts back of the store
and, with Clifford Seymour, Started for
a drive into the country to put up some
signs. They drove down the alley and
at kapaun & Lamm's restaurant turn
ed into Main street. just then one of
the neckyoke straps broke and the neck
yoke dropped, frightening the colts and
started them oil on a-mad run. Cliff
ford jumped from the buggy i'll the hope
that he could catch the horses by the
heads, but his efforts were in vain, for
they were already on a dead run. Henry
remained i'll the buggy and managed to
keep the frightened horses i'll the road,
as they tore down West Main street
toward the railroad crossing Shortly
after crossing the track the tongue OF
the buggy broke in two, and then Henry
decided that the best thing he could do
would be to jump, which he did. The
broken tongue then struck the ground
and doubled back under the buggy and
after running short distance further
the horses stopped, As Henry jumped
he fell and one wheel of the buggy
passed over him, but luckily he escaped
uninjured.
