new EFFICIENCY
No Room for Nervous, Worn Out
Men and Women.

Efficiency is the watchword of mod
ern industries. Practically all of the
larger enterprises are demanding that
applicants pass physical examination
before they are admitted to employ
ment. They are adopting the theory
that without health man is unable
to give his employer the best that is
in him. There is no-place in the mod
ern business world for the nervous,
tagged out, listless man or woman.
This is an age CT speed; we haven't
time to take care of ourselves These
rundown men and women are not ex-
actly sick, but just tired out, languid
and overworked Their business, their
home, and their life suffer
They need something to build them
up, something to throw off these
symptoms weakened, debilitated con-
dition produced by mental or physical
overwork, or by the abuse of a vital
organ-more often the stomach than
any other.
Chemists and scientists have gone
to endless pains to discovered some.
thing that would combat this serious
condition. 1t was left to Joseph Won
Trimbach, the noted chemist and CIV
er of health aids, to solve this perplex-
ing problem, and he did. He has given
the American public vegetable prep
aration composed of herbs, roots, flow

AUTOS HIT ON WINDING ROAD

Hill Spalding, of Lexington, for
merly of Stanford, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Ned Smith, all well known here, had
narrow escape from serious auto
accident last Saturday morning, when
starting up the tortuous hill on the
north side of the Brooklyn Bridge.
They were just rounding turn when
Danville man in Ford came scoot-
ing down the hill like lightning and
crashed into them. The Danville
party's wife, who was with him was
badly cut and bruised in the smash
up which followed, but luckily none
of Mr.. Spalding's party received any
thing worse than a severe shaking
up. Mr.. Spalding's Grant roadster
was somewhat damaged. The Dan
vile man hurried away with his wife
to a physician soon after the acct
dent. Neither car was put out of
commission by the collision. The
rike on each side of Brooklyn bridge
is very steep and very winding and
most motorists negotiate it slowly
both ways, and horns constantly kept
| blowing.

PROBABLY ALL THAT SAVED
HARTWELL SHANK'S LIFE
Well Known Local Boy Dragged Un-
der Cart For 100 Yards When
Runaway Dropped Dead.

Except for the fact that the horse
he was driving dropped dead within
a space of 100 yards, after it turned
him out of the cart and started to
run away, dragging the young man
and Mrs. w. c. Shanks, would have
probably dragged. to a horrible death
last Friday afternoon. The young
man was badly shaken up and bruis-
ed as it was, but not seriously, and
was able to attend the dance that
night. Shanks' escape was a very
narrow one, and very lucky one,
however. He had been riding over
Rural Route No. 8 as substitute for
regular carrier A. C. Hill, who was
at the fair. Just as he turned out
of the Bonneville lane, at Mr.. T. d.
Newland's onto the Somerset pike,
he wrapped the reins over one arm
and was sorting the mail which had
been collected. A wire brace for a
fence around H. C. Baughman's farm
was struck by the cart, and over it
went with young Shanks beneath it,
the reins wrapped about his arm. His
horse frightened by the accident,
Immediately broke into a dead run,
and started down the road, dragging
Shanks beneath the cart. Almost in
front of the residence of w. T. Tuck
er, scarcely 100 yards from where
the cart went over, the animal drop
ped dead. from a ruptured blood YES
sci, veterinarians say. This undoubt-
edly saved the boys life. When
friends got to him, he was pinioned
under the wreckage of the cart, and
it is believed that nothing could have
saved his life had the horse contin-
ued on its mad run, dragging the
overturned vehicle and it's helpless
human freight beneath it.
The youngster gamely made light
of his injuries, and after they had
been dressed, attended the fair later
in the afternoon and the dance that
evening.

DANVILLE PIKE CLOSED

County Road Engineer Rife has
asked the l. J. to notify auto travel
lers that the Danville pike will be
closed at the bridge below Jop Rank
ms place for a week or so to auto
travel. The old wooden bridge,
which has always given so much
trouble has been taken out during
the course of reconstruction of the
pike under the state-aid system, and
new concrete structure is being put
in in its place. The crossing at the
creek is so steep and precarious,
however. that autoes will be unable
to negotiate it. Mr.. Rife says, and
for that reason, those who desire
to travel in motol cars to the capital
of Boyle, had best select some other
route, until the new concrete bridge
is finished.

A fairly good crowd attended Lam
caster court Monday, but business
was not brisk in any line. There
were only IA cattle on the market
and they did not sell. They were
brought by ]. Matt Craig. of Rock
castle, who had to take them back
with him. Some mule trading was
done, W. B. Burton. buying a half
dozen at S125 to S175. Jay Lee
Murphy bought several around the
first figure. Several war horses
changed hands at from 800 to S11O.
Hon. Ed Morrow, of Somerset, spoke
at the courthouse In the afternoon
to a full house and made, as he al
ways does, a good speech. He laud-
ed Nominee Hughes to the skies, told
of the great things the Republican
party has done, and of course inform
ed his hearers that Hughes would
sweep the country in November. His
effort was loudly applauded and was
enjoyed by democrats as well as re-
publicans. He is fascinating speak
err and is good to hear, whether one
agrees with him or not.
