Broke Windshield and Eib
Lart week as A. L. Baker, versa
tile salesman at the Service store,
was returning home from Platts
mouth drifting down the avenue
and keeping to the right tdde of the
road, when near the home of C. E.
Cook, he was met by a big c.ir coin
ing full speed forward, with all its
ix cylinders working full blast, on
the same side of the road.
Mr. Baker waited as long as safety
would permit for the driver of the
big car to turn out, which he failed
to do, and seeing that he would have
to meet the. big car headon with his
Ford or take to the b:ink, he chose
the latter alternative and at the- same
moment the other driver dodged to
the right opening up a way to get
through safely. But :;s he went to
ffeer suddenly - back into the road,
Mr. Baker turned a liit le too sharp
r nd over went the car, breaking
the windshield and fracturing one of
Lis ribs. He has, as a result, been
very sore ever since both physically
t'p.l mentally against the "road hog."
finch rmart alec elrivers ought to be
milroaded to jail for a period of six
months and refused driving licenses
f:r the next forty years and a day.

FOR EVERYBODY
A prominent physician writes In
a recent article that there is per
haps not one man who would not
need a thorough cleaning of his in
testines from time to time, even if
his still seems to be regular. That
is why Triner's American Elixir of
Bitter Wine is a remedy for every
body. It cleans intestines perfectly.
Its special virtue consists in its ov
ercoming constipation without purg
ing and therefore without weaken
ing. Another remedy which you
should have now at home is Trin
er's Cough Sedative. If you come
to the theater or a concert, you find
at once that coughs and colds are
now in season. That eternal cough
ing spoils your enjoyment. If all
such disturbers knew of Triner's
Cough Sedative, they would not ter
ment themselves and molest the rest
of the audience. Your druggist and
every dealer in medicines keeps
Triner's remedies in stock. Joseph
