Warm Weather Carelessness

In Summer time when lighter foods are most prevalent, it is particularly necessary that you get the full bene- fit of all the nourishment your food too, that people are more careless about what they eat and drink during warm weather than at any other time of year. Chilling draughts of icy cola water are constantly retarding the or gans of digestion, which often cause serious illness. Sometimes it seems that there must be a secret regarding the fnvariable good health of a few in comparison to the many who con tfnually feel far from fit and there is. For. over 50 years Duny's Pure Malt Whiskey has been a constant health safeguard in the lives of hun dreds of thousands of men and won- en throughout the world.
 A little of it as directed-fn drink ing water at meal tfme--and partic- uIarIy when travelling, will safeguarer you against many ills. It not only helps the healthy to maintain their good health, but restores strength and energy to the sickly and inf1rn by. stimulating the stomach to healthy action so that it properly assinilates all the food that is eaten. With this assurance that the system receives it's full proportion of nourishr ent, every organ of the body is stimulated to greater action, and reneVed vtgor ana vitality is the invarfable result of the use of Duffy's Pure Malt WI1iskey, according to directions.

FAIRFIELD WOMAN. CARRIED EXPLODED
 STOVE INTO YARD
Another Accident at Library Corner Autoist Who Ran Over, Hose
 Fined.
Ry our special corresnor6ent,

Fairfield, Aug. 14-The automobile question must be brought forward again. The good folk of the town had begun to think that after all there was hoodoo which hung oyer the town which brought about the many accidents, and when in the last few weeks there were no reports of smash ups in town, they began to think that the grand old jinx had disappeared. Just at the time when they considered he would never return along comes an automobilist and a motorcycIfst and mix up things at the library corner, now famous in incidents of this sort. Tuesday afternoon a car driven by one Wakeman of Weetport and ~ motor cycle ridden by a young man named Sherwood of Bridgeport came head on at the literary corner, The motorcy- cl1st was thrown from his mount and pitched into the road. rolling over sev- era1 times. Those who witnessed the accident ran to the aid of the young man expecting to find his severely in jured. However, he got up quickly and began telling the automobiliet what he thought of him as a driver When the smoke of battle had cleared away both parties gave each other their names. telling each other where he could be found. The motorcycle was put out of commission. and was taken into Bridgeport by express. The mud guards and radiator of the auto were somewhat caved in

The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1913-08-14

N Frank B. Lalley, Jr., of Bridgeport, took the paying of a fine of $10 and costs of SIP very gracefully. He was arrested for speeding in his auto over the main road last Sunday. Motor cycle Policeman 1VoIdaurer. who ob- served MT. Lal1ey, informed the court that the accused was travelling over 35 miles an hour and that he had passed two teams, two autos and a standing car from which passengers were aLghting. He said MT. LalIey slowed down from g, rate of about 40 miles an hour to about 35 miles at the croes-overs. In his own defense, MT. La11ey stated that he did not believe he was going 40 miles an hour, that it was more like 35. As the law reads that a greater speed than 25 miles an hour the highway and eight miles at cross-overs is reckless, there was no alternative than to find the &C., eused guilty.

w. O. Wood, a resident of PenheId avenue, appeared before Judge Wake man in the town court Tuesday af- ternoon to answer to the charge of reckless driving. On the evening of the fire at the Carroll barn in Pine Creek avenue, Wood drove through the fire lines and over the fire hose the latter bursting after his machine had passed over. The court found him guilty, imposing a fine of $15 and costs, all amounting to $2e.
 On the night of the fire the hose was laid across the main highway. Peter Hawkins was stationed with a lantern above the location to warn autoisis to go around the hose. It Is said that Wood dfsregarded the orders and when near the hose also neglected to heed the warning of William Da1ling, who was stationed at that point Just af- ter the machine passed over the hose, the latter burst. At the trial MT Wood considered that he was being imposed upon, that he was not the only autoist who had gone over the hose. As matter of fact, several machines did pass over the hose on the side street. after the passage of one of the cars, the hose again bursting The court informed MT. Wood that it was aware that machines did pass over the hose when ordered not to, but that it was not known who their owners were. If that information was advanced they would also be arraigned. MT. Wood paid up his fine and costs.

Panama Exposi

A national boy city, with a popuIa- tfon of 15,000 boys, will be an out standing feature of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition which is to be held at San Francisco in 1915 in celebration of the completion of the Panama Canal. More than $1,000,000 is to be spent on this city, which is being backed by two ofa the greatest commercial organizations which spend vast sums on developing efficiency among the boys of America.
 During the period of the exposition, which @1asts from February to De- cember, 1915, the boys will live in a model settlement, the watchword of which will be Reinforcement" Con- tests are being conducted in 436 con- which 8 boy may win the coveted honor of representing his home geo. tion in the national boy city. The boys are to be chosen by competitive examination in which 25 per cent. will be allowed for educational qualifca- tions, 25 per cent. for physical devel- opment, 25 per cent. for moral char acter and 25 per cent. for musical ac- comp1ishments. All expenses to and from San Francisco will be paid and there will be no expenses attached to their remaining in the settlement dur ing the period of the exposition.
 A staff of physicians has already been engaged to look after the health of the boys, and every precaution against disease and hurt will be made by the exposition authorities.
 A squad of boys is now touring the world under charge of Major Sidney s. Peixotto, head of the Columbia Park Boys Club of San Francisco. These boys will visit the capitals of the world and return to California at the end of the year. The expedition will select boys from other countries to join the settlement of 1915, which will be in charge of Judge Willis Brown, formerly judge of the Juvenile Court at Salt Lake City, Utah, and famed throughout the world as boys friend.

Motor-boat races from Sandy Hook and Chicago through the Panama Canal to the Golden Gate, in which the highest-speed motor-boats of the world will compete, will be one of the most interesting of the series of events in connection with a sports program of international interest to be held under the auspices of the Panama-Pacifc International Expo sition in San Francisco in 1915.
 These will be the longest races on record and will be the longest voy- ages ever undertaken by power boats.
 In the case of the race from Chicago the route will be through the drainage canal to the Mississippi, thence to the Gulf, through the Pana- ma Canal, to the Golden Gate. The Sandy Hook race will follow the At lantio Coast to the Gulf and thence through the canal to San Francisco.
 A number of big motor manufac- turing firms have decided to run boats of their manufacture, and builders and motor-boat enthusiasts plan to make the races the most notable events of the kind in history. The boats will be built to withstand heavy weather, and it is probable that the demands of the contest will evolve Q new type of motor-boat.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1913-06-09

The announcement of the races has caused widespread interest through out the United States, and the ex- position has received telegraphio in- formation from a number of manu- lecturers that they are planning to compete. In keeping with the senti- ment of the whole exposition, the event will be one of international in- terest. The conditions of the races are to be announced shortly, and it lis planned that they will be held early in the summer of 1915.
 In connection with the motor-boat races, international yacht races will be held, the course being from Sandy Hook through the Panama Canal to San Francisco.
 A widely known motor nanufac- turing company is figuring on enter ing hydroplanes in the races, and if the firm is unable to develop 8 craft suited to so long a voyage it plans on giving exhibition and passenger flights over San Francisco Bay dur ing the period of the exhibition. which runs from February 2Oth to December 4th.
 The canal marathon will be but one of the many attractions to be offered by the exposition in which motor-boats will figure prominently
