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.

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 Triner Company, 1333-43 R. Ashland Ave., Chicago, 111. FOR SALE Good two and one-half year old Shorthorn bull. J.
