RECALLS ACCIDENT
James Hays, Who Died in Drury

Tragedy of SOS.
WIFE AND CHILDREN DROWN
Seven Lost Their Lives When Box OF
Sled Was Carried Away While
Fording a Creek.

Foster, ILL.,, Feb. 8.-The death of
James Hays, who passed away Fri
day at 1 p. m. at his home recalls
the greatest tragedy that has occur
ed in this vicinity since white man
settled here. Mr.. Hays first wife
and two children were drowned in
a food in 1861 in which four others
also lost their lives. 1t was in the
spring of 1861 when one day party
of women and children drove from
this vicinity to Millersburg for a
visit. While they were away from
home a great rain fell, melting the
heavy snow. On their return, the
party, who were travelling in a sled,
found the stream swollen and as
there were few bridges in those days,
the crossings were dangerous. At
Eliza creek the water was so high
that the only man in the party, who
was driving, objected to attempting
to cross. Mrs. Hays however, in
sisted on preceding, and, being an
expert driver, herself took the lines
and urged the team into the water.
In the middle of the stream the cur
rent carried the box off the sled and
Mrs. Hays, her two children, Mrs.
Bargow and two children and Mrs.
Hudson we're drowned. Two Of Mrs.
Hays children had been left at home

Are You Nervous
GREAT SPECIALIST TELLS WHY
YOU DON'T GET WELL.

Are you nervous? Then we say to
you that somewhere along the spine
there is very often a congestion and
you can never get well until that con-
gested spot is relieved. We have prov
en- this in hundreds OF cases, and we
can prove it to you. We have the
testimony of hundreds of grateful pa
tients to back up this great truth.
For years we have made a scientific
study of these cases. By finding these
congested places in the spinal column
and relieving them by special treat
ments we have cured hundreds after
others failed Many of these cases
had been ailing for years, and be-
fore coming to our Office, they had
been treated by others for all kinds
of complaints except the right one.
Many complaints are caused or
kept UP by congestion in the spine,
such as nervous prostration, nervous
dyspepsia, Indigestion, palpitation of
the heart, loss of sleep, poor men,
DRY, pain in back of neck, restless
ness, lack of confidence, loss of
strength, easily tired, general weak
ness, or weakness of any part, back
ache, dependency, worry, hot and
cold flashes. numb feeling. paralysis,
neuralgia, female complaints, consti-
patton, nervous debility, weakness of
the heart, stomach, nver or kidneys,
cough, cold hands and feet, poor cir
culation and general weak and ner-
vous conditions of men, women and
children.

er wanted me to be alone. When the
spells of pain would come on 1 would
often suffer agony. For quite
while 1 could only eat light food.
Yet after taking DR.. Walshs treat
