The victim was William Shirley, an aged resident of Montoursville, and for a time his life se. med to hang by a slender thread. Mr. Shirley and his wife came to town to day to look for a house, and at noon he ate an unusual ly hearty dinner. After the meal had been disposed of they went to Mr. Levergood's office, and, while sitting in a chair Mr. Shirley's head suddenly dropped over and he became motion less and pale. The people in the office at the time were frightened half out of their wits, but restoratives were at once applied and Dr. L G. Baker sent for. When the physician arrived Mr. Shirely's fingers were blue and there was hardly any pulsation. The doctor worked with him for an hour before consciousness returned, and he stated afterward that at one time respiration entirely ceased. It was a narrow escape from death, and prompt and faithful work only saved his life. It was a case of heart failure, and, althought Mr. Shirley has had slight attacks before there never was any that near approached this one in severity. Mr. Shirley is seventy two years of age.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that contain Mercury, as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces.
