Auto and Wagon Collide.

Late Friday afternoon last the Jitney
Bus operated by Mr.. M. R. Sheets. of
Emmitsburg, and Mr.. William Lohr s
two-horse team collided on bridge on
the State Road about mile north of
Thurmont. Messrs. William and John
Uum) Lohr, who were on the wagon,
were hurled to the ground when the
machine struck. Master Calvin Lohr
was also on the wagon but was not in
jured. Mr.. William Lohr was thrown
between the horses and John under the
wagon, the wheels passing over his right
leg and breaking the bone at two places.
John Lohr was taken to Frederick city
hospital for treatment and is getting
along nicely at this time.
Mr.. Sheets, who was driving the car,
was injured by being thrown against the
front of the car when the two vehicles
came together.
At the place the accident occurred are
two bridges under which flows the water
in Owens creek. Both are narrow and
but one team can be on either at the
same time.
Some weeks ago an auto and heavy
four-horse team came near colliding at
this same place. The wagon was on the
bridge and the machine could not pass.
The person driving the car was not will
ing to run his car back to leave the team
clear both bridges, but by doing some
harsh talking made the teamster unhtch
his horses, take them around and hook
to the rear of the wagon and pull out
backward The autosts then went on
rejoicing.
This is very bad place and lucky it is
that more accidents have not occurred
1here. The road should be made wider
soon as possible.

More Light Needed. Gu

Last Saturday night when Mr.. W. A.
Hahn came home with his team he made
bad drive; missing the Root alley and
driving his mule attached to butcher
wagon through the passage way between
Roy Creeger's new store building and
house. The mule took him through
safely, passing over lumber piles, con-
crete walks and water hydrant. The
exit to the alley was made from the rear.
Guess it's up to the town to put more
light on the street.

Danger Signal.


If the fire bell should ring would you
run and stop it or go and help to put out
the fire? 1t is much the same way with
a cough. A cough is danger signal as
much as fire bell. You should no more
try to suppress it than to stop fire bell
when it is ringing, but should cure the
disease that causes the coughing. This
can nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial re-
suits. 1t is especially valuable for the
persistent cough that SO often follows
bad cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs.
Thomas Beeching. Andrews, Ind, writes:
During the winter my husband takes
cold easily and coughs and coughs Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is the best med
icine for breaking up these attacks and
you cannot get him to take any other"

Politeness in Anger

IT is interesting 20 note that Presi
dent Wilson Is being described just
row as the most English" OF Amer
lean statesmen. on the ground, appar-
entity. that he grows moro polite a he
fancies that IT would be rather difficult
to produce chapter and verse for this
rather widely conceived opinion as to
British statesmen. Gladstone was
often described as courtly, but he was
B'so grim. and though he dealt at
times in n sarcastic politcncss. one
doubts whether this grew when he be
came really angry. There was de-
c;ded touch Of roughncss about Lord
Salisbury when moved, and the same
is true of Campbell Banncrman. The
parallel comes nearer with Sir Edward
Grey. who cmbod!cs n good many OF
the characteristics of the old Whig
tradition, including something Of it's
GOODNESS. but as we glance down the
list we get further away again.
Lord John Russell certainly was not
always most polite when most angry;
politcness. indeed. was never his fol-
BILE. and in the case of the most IA
nous OF his dispatches it required a
revision at court TO eliminate certain
sentences which might have meant a
war. PaimcrStOn was often dcliber-
a.ely rude in his dealings at the for
eign Office, and he cared very little
about diplomatic language when real
ly reused. Granville gives us more of
politeness. but then Granville was tenn
peramentally polite, and il was never
easy to make him angry at all; but
there are letters of Clarendon with
some very plain and angry speaking.
Nobody ever called the Duke Of We'll
lington unnecessarily polite Perhaps
the tradition owes something to the
astonishing foweriness of diction
which Cha than used on occasion, but
that belonged to another age and GER
tainly never deceived the unfortunate
recipients of his more angry letters.
But undoubtedly the tradition of tho
EnGlishman as most dangerous when
most polite does flourish exceedingly
and Will outlive fact so long as there
are novel writer's to exploit imam
