Haldeman Figyelmessy, i
Daring Marietta Aviator,
Dies at Philadelphia

Marietta, Pa, June 17.-On Satur-
day afternoon the body OF
Haldeman Figyelmessy, who died in
a hospital at Philadelphia from the
effects of a hemorrhage of the brains
was brought to Marietta and burial
made in the Ffgyelmessy plot in the
Marietta Cemetery.
Mr.. Figyelmessy was a son of the
late Colonel Philip and Emma
Haldeman Figyelmessy, and was
born in Marietta He was about
fortytwo years old and the last of
the family. From early boyhood
he was always of a daring and cour-
ageous disposition, and many resi-
dents will recall the time when his
brother was drowned while bathing
in the Susquehanna river, and the
subject of this sketch was saved
by DIR. George r. Reich. Young
Figyelmessy and Harold Mowery
scaled the face of Chickies Rock a
number of years ago, which was
most dangerous task, and which
trick has not since been accom-
plished
Mr.. Figyelmessy was graduate
of the Boston Institute of Technol-
ogy. He had a number of narrow
escapes from being killed while
learning aviation, and during the
war was in foreign service. Several
years ago he was so badly injured
when his airplane fell at the Allen
town fair that he was unconscious
for a long time.

THE MIGRATION OF BIRDS

Professor Frank Smith, of the de-
partment of zoology in the Tniver-
sity of Illinois, is quite right in this
that he says about the migration of
robins. THE sight of robin does
not mean that spring has come. See
ing a flock of robins shows that there
has been a migration, but it does
not indicate an early or late spring,
because the robin has no way of tell
ing the present or future weather
conditions. The presence of migra-
tory birds from farther south, as the
Gulf States, indicates weather con-
ditions there, but not here. If there
is a snow storm after the robins ar
rive, he may freeze and starve, for
he has not wit enough to fly south
again." He may freeze, but prob
ably he will not, because the robin
has great powers of resistance as
against spring snowstorms. AS a
matter of fact, birds migrate without
any regard to what the weather is
going to be. Their fight is a re-
sponse to an impulse implanted in
them by millions of years of migra-
tions, ard this impulse takes them at
practically the same time every year.
The oriole, for example. is seldom
heard around Boston before the 8th
day of May; though individuals are
generally reported few days earl
ier, you and I, gentle reader are not
likely to hear the orioles whistle be-
fore the morning of May s. and then
we are perfectly sure to hear it IL
we go out. The bird has a delicate
organism to respond so closely to the
date; it is a faculty bred into his
tissues ages ago.-Bostor Transcript.

THIN men and WOMEN
CAN PUT ON FLESH

increase strength, endurance, vitality
and greatly improve their health by
building up their nerves and enrich
ing their blood. Unquestionably one
of the best things for this purpose is
the great French discovery known
among our druggists as B1ood-Iron
Phosphate. People who have tried it
say. that one five-grain tablet taken
with each meal quickly restores de-
pleted nervous energy, enriches the
blood, increases strength, vitality and
endurance, and those who are too thin
usually put on pounds of solid stay
there flesh in short time. Inasmuch
as Geo. A. Gorgas and all other drug
gists are authorized to sell Blood
Iron Phosphate under a guarantee of
satisfaction or money back, every
thin, weak. nervous or anemic man
or woman should give it a trial with
out delay.
IMPORTANT - BIood-Iron Phos-
phatc is sold only in original pack
ages, containing enough for three
weeks treatment, at $1.50 per pack
age-only soc a week.
