TfAMSTFR HAS
LUCKY ESCAPE
Freight Outfit Goes Over Kitty
Wilkins Grade.
THREE HORSES KILLED AND JACK
HALL STUNNED BY FALL.
Fall of from Three to Six Hundred
Feet Result of Horse Slipping on the
Grade.

Sunday the report was brought into
Twin Falls of an accident on the grade
leading into the Kitty Wilkins ranch
from the Jarbidge side. According to
the statements made here, Jack Hall,
a son of p. H. Hall, a well-known
Twin Falls contractor, was returning
from the mining camp with a four
horse freighting outfit and was lead
ing three extra horses behind the
wagon, when one of the horses slipped
on the narrow grade and by the lurch
to recover footing sent the whole seven
horses, wagon and driver to the bot
tom of the grade, which is variously
estimated to be from three to six hun
dred feet above the creek below.
Hall was stunned and shaken up
by the fall, but otherwise the force of
his fall was broken by the three horses
which were killed. Out of the animals
in the mix-up four were extricated
with little damage. Mr.. Hall had lost
one horse on the trip into the camp
and had borrowed one there to COM
plete his four, and the borrowed horse
was one of the animals rescued.

How Old People
May Prolong
Their Lives

AT advanced age the organs act
more slowly than in youth. Circu-
lation becomes poor, blood thin and
watery, appetite fitful, and diges-
ton weak. This condition leaves
the system open to disease such as
Coughs, Colds, Grippe, Pneumo-
MIA, Rheumatism, etc.
YINOL is the greatest health
creator and body builder we know
of for old people, as it supplies
the very elements needed to re-
build wasting tissue and replace
weakness with strength.
HERE Is THE PROOF
A case is recorded In Albany, N. Y, of
woman who felt she was breaking
down by age and was doomed to the
weak and feeble condition of old people.
She had no strength and the slightest ex-
ertion tired her, but NINOL made her
Wen and strong, and she states that she

fore taking EISOL.

this neighborhood to try bottle
of VINOL with the understanding
that we will return their money if it
does not prove beneficial.
