Injured in Runaway at Dexter

Mrs j. NJ. s. Hunter of Dexter. for
merry of Pennington, was badly injured
Tuesday evening in a runaway on High
land avenue. Mrs. Hunter with her
daughter, Mrs. C. w. Yeaton, and Mr.,
and Mrs. Amos a. Springall, were pas
sengers in a two-seated public carriage
driven by E. II. Bragdon, and in pass
ing over the Grove street railroad cross
ing one side of the pole became I'M
coupled, with the result that Mr. Brag-
don was thrown out and the pair of
horses began running over Highland ave-
nue.. Mr. and Mrs. Springall managed
to leap from the carriage, but Mrs. Hunt
er and Mrs. Yeaton were unable to jump
owing to the fact the carriage curtains
were buttoned. Running at breakneck
speed the horses turned from Highland
avenue onto lions hill. where the car
riage was overturned and a heavy trunk
that had been fastened to the trunk rack
fell upon Mrs. Hunter. She was removed
to a nearby residence and later taken to
her home. She sustained severe bruises
and her physician fears that she may
have been injured internally. Beyond a
few bruises Mrs. Yeaton was uninjured.
The carriage was demolished

CAUSE AND EFFECT.
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.

Indigestion and the attendant dis
comforts of mind and body are certain
to follow continued use of improper
food
Those who are still young and ro-
bust are likely to overlook the fact
that, as dropping water will wear
stone away at last, so will the use of
heavy, greasy rich food, finally cause
loss of appetite and indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principle of cause and effect in
their daily food. A N. Y. woung wo-
man writes her experience thus:
Sometime ago l had a lot of trouble
from indigestion, caused by too rich
food got so l was unable to digest
scarcely anything. and medicines
seemed useless.
"A friend advised me to try Grape
Nuts food, praising it highly and as
last resort, / tried it. I am thankful
to say that Grape Nuts not only re-
lieved me of my trouble. but built me
up and strengthened my digestive or
gans so that l can now eat anything l
desire. But l stick to Grape Nuts"

Fight for a Girl Lands Boys
In Lookup at Sk0whegan

cousins agreed that, with the crowd
the real sutton had mustered to his
aid, there was nothing else to do but
agree to this ultimatum. They did say,
however, that if they got young Du
mont alone they would give him some
of the same medicine that had been
administered to them.
Opportunity did not seem to present
itself, so Tuesday afternoon the cous
ms decided to make opportunity and
they stationed themselves in front Of
the High school building waiting for
the session to close for the day. When
Donald Dumont came out he was met
by one of the cousins, who without any
parleying, landed his fist into Donalds
face. Then the fight was on. Dumonts
brother Harold came to assist him
and then the two cousins and the
Dumonts were certainly making things
look lively.
Nc one knows how many rounds
were fought, for when the excitement
was most intense, Chief of Police F.
P. Pencil arrived and rounded up
the four for the lookup. About this
time both sides were to have re-en-
forcement and it looked as If the whole
school would be engaged in the COM
bat. The Dumonts were not in the
lookup long when they were bailed
out by Howard Weston. The cousins
also had their sympathizers.
