aored by Bull. Warns others.

In Farm and Fireside a writer tells
how he was gored by a mad bull that
he had raised from calf and that had
always been gentle, allowing him to
drive him and ride him anywhere,
There came a day, however, when mat
ters changed.
"When about halfway across the
pasture the bull noticed us and came
toward us, head down and believing.
But we thought he was only playing,
and not until he was almost on us and
we saw the red in his eye were we
alarmed Then it was too late. We
turned to run, but he tossed me on
his horns and trampled me underfoot.
One horn went through my right leg,
and my right side was torn open, allow
ing my intestines to drag on the
ground.
"My chum started to desert me, but
when he saw he was not pursued he
ventured back far enough to encourage
the dog which never left me through
it all Had it not been for the dog
the bull would have killed me. But the
dog worried him and chung to his nose
until help came. The doctor said |
could not live, as it was hot August
weather. But he scwcd me up putting
% stitches in my side, and l got well. "

Relief i'm Pulmonary
Or Throat Troubles

depends largely on the sufferers abiI-
ity to upbuild a weakened system, and
thus hasten return of normal body
functions.
In this effort much depends on fresh
air-night and day-and rest and good
food. The patient should refrain from
work that overtaXes, and all sanitary
precautions should be taken. These
commonsense measures do not always
achieve the desired results unless aid
ed by proper medication.
1t is here that Eckman's Alternative
has evidenced its worth, for in many
cases 1t has effected lasting benefit.
And often such troubles seem to yield
to it.
In no case is it's use attended with
possible harm, since it contains no
poisonous or habit-forming drugs.

Lyman Boyd, s, son of Mrs Walter Hes
cock, was playing with other children dur
ing the noon hour intermission of the vii
lage school June s and in some way got
too near the edge of the DeeriieId river
bank where they had been fishing and fell
into the water.
The place being deep water hole just
above the covered bridge, where the stone
wharling is perpendicular, the lad was
obliged to swim to the opposite shore He

results from the accident.

cred certain by the engineers in

counter it at practically the same
depth.
