Preventative Medicine.

The tendency of medical science ID
toward preventative measures. 1t is
easier and better to prevent than to
cure. Pneumonia, one Of the most
dangerous diseases that medical men
have to contend with, often follows q
cold or attack of the grip. The cold
prepares the system for the reception
and development of the pneumonia
germ. The longer the cold hangs on,
the greater the danger. Take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy as soon as
the first indication of cold appears
SO as to get rid of it with the least
possible delay. 1t is folly to risk an
attack of pneumonia when this RENE
dy may be obtained for trifle.-Ad-
vertisement.

FIGHTS WITH HUNTERS
Won Hand-to-Hand Encounter With
Man Who Battled Him in His
Cave In Effort to Win
Reward.

Mt. Sterling, nl.-A wild man, liv-
ing in cave near here, is thwarting
all efforts of police and armed citizens
to capture him and Is keeping the
countryside In terror with his raids on
outlying farms. A price has been set
on his head, but desperate attempts
TO capture him in his lair have proved
vain.
The wild man recently made a series
OF bold rohberies near Mt. Pleasant,
carrying off calves and sheep to de-
serted mine where he stays hidden In
the daytime. Ambrose Smith, dead
shot and tireless hunter, was seri-
ously wounded in a terrific hand-to-
hand encounter with the mysterious
man-monster.
Is Huge Creature With Bony Hands.
THE wild man has long, wiry hair
that bristles about his strengthening
face" Smith said in his home. where
he is recovering from the adventure
"In the uncertain light of the cavern,
| made him out to be great towering
creature His hands are thin and the
flesh is stretched over the bones like
leather"
People feared black damp In the
long empty galleries of the mine so
much that even reward Of $500 for
the wild man, dead or alive, failed TO
result in his apprehension. At last
Smith. accompanied by J. NJ. Blair and
others from Mt Pleasant. all quick
with gun, went to the cave. 1t was
late in the afternoon. Smith had the
others stand back 200 yards from the
mouth of the cave and entered alone,
armed only with his large hunting
knife. His dog followed him.
Fought for Hour In Damp Cave.
Night fell and the watchers waited
in vain for Smiths return. Then there
was a great noise and the dog ran
out whimpering. The men went Into
the cavern In search Of Smith. They
CROPPED along through the twisting
passageways in the darkness, but were
unable to find any trace of him. AT
midnight Smith crawled from the cave
on his hands and knees and fell faint
and exhausted at the feet of his
friends.
II did not get more than 80 feet into
the cave boys" he said, as they car
ried him to the doctors. "when ] saw
the wild man glaring at me few
feet away. Then he sprang at me and
held me In his steel-lke grip. | tried
to knife him but he held my wrist
For more than an hour we fought to-
gether on the wet floor of the cave.
81 weakened and he slipped from
my grip. | felt his hot breath on my
face and then a heavy blow on my
head knocked me unconscious. / don't
know what happened after that, When
| get we'll I'll make another attempt
and next time I'll get him"

goes to waste owing to common scru-
pies.
The rattler from the West Virginia
hills was presented to the university
several weeks ago. When it declined
to eat, DR. Reese killed it aadTcooked
it. Those who partoak said the meat
was not unlike the breast Of a chick

color.
Or. Reese killed a crocodile for the
zoology department students several
years ago and cooked 1t To prove. he
said. that "in the swampy lands of the
South and other places where the rep

dollars worth of meat go to waste
every year because Of foolish scru-
