Him Into Mill Pond

sBridgeville, May Ito be
thrown from a demolished vehicle,
down steep embankment into ten
feet of water by a runaway horse,
was the thrilling experience of
Harry Brown today. The spirited
animal which Brown was driving be-
came frightened at a passing auto
mobile and dashed wildly down the
road. In making the turn at the
milldam, the carriage struck a tree
and was torn to pieces, while Brown
went into the mill pond. The horse
was badly cut and bruised and the
fact that the driver escaped without
injury is considered nothing short

While DIR. Carroll has betn in touch

held alone. superintendent Carroll
also proposes this year to hold the
colored institute at the same time,
and thus give the colored teachers
the benefit of the same high grade
corps of instructors as the white
teachers enjoy. The largest num-
ber of splendid entertainers heard at

CAN'T Be SEPARATED
Some Smyrna People Have
Learned How to Get Rid
of Both

Backache and kidney ache are
twin brothers.
You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid of the back
ache until you cure the kidney ache.
If the kidneys are we'll and strong

sure to be in vigorous health.
Doan's Kidney Pills make strong
healthy kidneys.
Thomas Davis, mail carrier, Main
street, Smyrna, Del. says: "I have
used Doan's Kidney Pills with ex-
cellent results and l feel that this
remedy should be in every home.
Twenty years ago l was troubled by
my kidneys. The kidney secretions
were too frequent in passage dis
turbing my rest at night and my
back was weak and lame. When
