-Four Hurt In Wreck.
Trolley Car And Automobile
Collide In Frederick.

On Monday afternoon of this week
serious accident occurred at the inter
section of Bentz and w. Fifth street
Frederick, the big Thurmont trolley ca
and the automobile belonging to John ant
Charles Fuss of Emmitsburg coming il
collision.
| In the machine were Messrs Charle
and John Fuss of Emmitsburg, their sis
ter, Mrs. Wilbur Long and seven-months
! old child and deputy sheriff John T. Speal
of near Thurmont. These persons hat
been at the courthouse on business anc
were returning home when the accident
occurred.
The trolley car was in charge of con
ductor Charles Stitely and motormar
Erasmus Eyler. Mr.. G. E. Rogers and
Mrs. Levi Leatherman of Thurmont. were
among the passengers on the trolley car.
The Frederick Post gave the following
account of the affair:
"Mr. Speak miraculously escaped be-
ing ground to death beneath the wheel of
the car. He fell from the auto across
one of the rails directly in front of the
car and was dragged for nearly sixty
feet. In some strange manner his cloth
ing caught in bolt which extended from
the car in front of the wheel and he was
dragged until the car was stopped with
his head and neck across one rail hardly
six inches in front of the wheel. When
the car stopped it had to be backed in
order to disentangle his clothing which
had become fastened to the protruding
bolt, before his body could be released.
He was then picked up unconscious and
hurried to the hospital. Mrs. Long and
the child were also taken to the hospital.
The full extent of Speak sinjuries were
not known late Monday night.
Mrs. Long and Charles Fuss, who were
suffering principally from cuts and shock
were reported to be doing we'll. The lat
ter are not hurt seriously.
"The little child was thrown from the
car on to the street and escaped with a
few minor bruises.
"Persons who witnessed the accident
stated that they did not hear a signal
from either the car or automobile. John
Herd, negro of Adamstown. who wit
messed the crash emphatically says he
heard the car gong sounded. Both were
going at fair rate of speed and met at
the corner. The automobile kept going
and as the front wheels cleared the track
the car crashed into the rear of the ma
chine. The auto was partly turned
around and dragged.
at is said that Mr.. Speak was the
first to fall from the machine and that
he rolled directly out in front of the NOV
ing car. Motorman Eyler applied the
brakes as soon as possible and the car was
brought to standstil.
Several persons including the motor
man rushed to the assistance of MIR. Speak
who was covered with blood and lay
motionless in front of the car. He was
placed in the automobile of A. R. Favorite
and taken to the hospital. At the latter
place he walked assisted into the building.
MRS. Long, who remained in the auto
mobile was assisted in the car of former
Sheriff Charles Troxell and taken to the
Hospil al. Her face was covered with
blood and she appeared shocked and

Cause OF Headache.

By knowing the cause, a disease may
often be avoided. This is particularly
true of headache. The most common
cause of headache is disordered stomach
or constipation, which may be corrected
by taking few doses of Chamberlain S
Tablets. Try it. Many others have OBJ
tanned permanent relief by taking these
Tablets. They are easy to take and mild
and gentle in effect.

oleum, oilcloth, and cork carpet; and
furniture. The tools and cleaning
agents to use are also discussed with
directions for cleaning the tools
after use The information given is
that which is familiar to every ex-
cellent housekeeper; but there are
always too many housewives who do
not know the best methods of clean
ing. And there are things that al
most anyone can learn even about
her own business. Space does not
permit giving all the material in
cluded.
Cleaning Tools.
Before buying any devicee, ask
yourself: Will it pay for itself in
the long run by saving time and
strength or wear and tear? Will it
make some especially disagreeable
task less unpleasant?
Long handles on brooms, brushes
and dustpans save the back.
A cleaning cloth should be soft
and loosely woven so that it will
take up dirt easily and itself be
easy to clean. A duster takes up
dirt better if a few drops of water
or oil have been sprinkled on it.
Beware of too much moisture or oil
1t leaves streaks. For wiping very
dirty places, use soft paper, cotton
waste, or rags which may be thrown
away.
Keep your cleaning things to-
gether in a convenient place. Put
them away clean. Hang brushes,
mops, and brooms when not in use.
Clean string mops by shaking
over a damp newspaper or a can.
Never shake in the open air unless
you are sure the dirt will not trouble
you or your neighbors. Wash oc-
casionally in hot water, with wash
ing soda or soap. Dry quickly.
Sprinkle few drops of oil on oiled
mops.
EVERY KIND OF SHORTCAKE
The king of shortcakes, the straw
berry shortcake, is the only kind in
use in the average home. Without
detracting from its joys, one may
suggest many other kinds that are
delicious with the spring and early
summer fruits. ,
Pineapple Shortcake-Shred fresh
pineapple, let it stand 80 minutes
with sugar, then spread between and
on top of rounds of shortcake.
Pineapple and Strawberry Short
cake-A mixture of the two fruits.
Pineapple and Banana Shortcake.
Pineapple and Orange Shortcake.
Strawberry and Banana Short
cake.
Rhubarb and Banana Shortcake-
Add sliced bananas to the cooked
rhubarb.
Question Box
Mrs. T. w. asks for special dress
ing for fruit salad. The regular
cooked salad dressing may be thin
ned with fruit juice or whipped
cream. Or a Hawaiian fruit salad
dressing is good.

The Government Steps In


1t seemed to me the other day that
a new era in housekeeping had
dawned. | received from the United
States Treas sury several Thrift leaf
let's, one of which concerned house
cleaning. The connection between
the two was the time, energy and
money that might be saved by ef-
fcient methods of housekeeping,
and the particular plea is to buy
War Saving Stamps with the sur
plus saved. But just the same it is
a new era when our government
sends expert advice on housekeep-
ing methods. We are used to get
ting information on food; now we
are receiving help in new direction.
General Suggestions.
The outside of the leaflet con-
tains the following points:
Keep Dirt Out of the House
rubbers means less dirt in the house.
Clean walks, steps, porches, and
sills together with clean shoes and
good deal of the juice, or the short
cake will be soggy.
Remorve Dust Thoroughly-Right
methods mean removal, not scatter
ing dirt about to settle again.
Do Heavy Cleaning Little at a
Time-and avoid spring and fall
cleaning.
Use Water and Cleaning Agents
SSparingly-Too much Injuries wood
and all finishes. weakens glue, paste
and cement Always rub until dry.
Train the Family to Leave Things
in Place-and in Good Condition
This is fair play to all.

lent directions for cleaning walls,
