FALLS FROM FIRE ENGINE
Michael WIseman Injured While
Making Run to Blaze

A fall from the chemical wagon of
Engine Company No. 4S, which was
responding to small fire at 306 South
Ninth street this morning, resulted in
the possibly serious injury of Michael
Wiseman, member of that company.
AS the wagon turned from Seventh
street into Passyunk avenue and struck
the car tracks Wiseman was jolted off
the side and observers declare that the
wheels passed over his legs.
He was rushed to the Mount Sinai
Hospital, where a Roentgen- ex-
animation will be made to determine
the extent of his injuries.
The fire was in the marble yard
owned by Migliore & Carminati. 1t
is believed to have started from gas
engine, which ignited woodwork in the
small frame building in the yard. The
damage was about $500.

WHERE is the bronze statue of

If you'll hunt. you'll find it lying on

covered with tarpauln. It's been there

for the Liberty Bell. which was placed
before the State House in honor of the

not removed for that purpose.

Of thin people who are searching con.
tinually f0r some method BY which
they may increase their flesh TO normal
proportions By the filling out Of ugly
bellows, the rounding off Of protruding
angles with the attendant bloom of
health and attraetiveness is no won
der that many and varied suggestions
along this line appear from time to
time in public print.
While excessive thinness might be
attributed to various and subtle causes
Ia different Individuals il is a well
known fact that the lack Of sufficient
pkosphaFons in the human system is
very largely responsible for this con
dition. Experiments on humans and
animals BY many scientists have dem
onsfrated beyond question Of doubt
that a body deficient in phosphorous
becomes nervous, siekly and thin. A
noted author and professor in his
book Chemistry and Food Nutrition
published in 1918. says: 80 that
fhe amount Of phosphorus required
for the normal nutrition Of man is seri-
ouslv underestimated in many Of our
standard text hooks.
II seems to be well established that
this deficiency in phosphorus may now
be met by the use Of an organic phos-
phate known throughout English speak
ing countries as Bitro-rhosphate
Through the assimilation Of this phos
phate by the nerve tissue the phos.
phorie content when absorbed in the
amount normally required by nature
soon produces welcome change in our
body aud mind. Nerve tension disap-
pears, vigor and strength replace
weakness and lask Of energy, and the
whole body soon loses It's ugly hollows
and abrupt angles, becoming enyeloped
IN a glow Of perfect health and beauty
and the will and strength to be up and
