the bridge and ran uwuy. The buggy was
smashed In pieces and the only thing that sav

the fact that the horses soon broke loose from
the buggy. The horses then tangled them
selves up In barbed wire and 'njured them
selves very badly. Attention was called to the
dangerous rendition of ibis bridge last week
ami before the township Is through with It. It

Did you ever try to dodge the
rain-drops ? Did not succeed
very well, did you? It’s just
as useless to try to escape from
the germs of consumption. You
can’t do it. They are about us
on every hand and we are con
stantly taking them into our
lungs.
Then why don’t we all have ’
this disease ? Simply because
these germs cannot gain a foot
hold in a strong throat and
lungs. It’s when these are
weak that the germs master.
The body must be well supplied
with fat. 'I he danger comes
when the Mood is poor and the
body ia thin. If your cougli does
