and water escaped into the room. All the

excepting Mr. Logue, who awakened iu a
da/ed condition, and made his way to the
door, but could not open it. Then he
went into the coal house, aud pushed a
board off the roof. The air rushed iu and
revived him enough to remember his sou
and he went back and dragged him into
the coal house, and then went back again
for Mr. Abrauis, but fouud that he had
been scalded so terribly that the flesh
dropped off his hands, and that he was al
ready dead. Then he got out through the

Parks, the store keeper and postmaster at

Papers are to be read and discuss
ed on tha following subjects, viz:
Diphtheria, scarlet fever aud rheuma
tism. It is a matter of regret that
so many of the physicians of onr

meetings of this Society and it is
hoped that a large majority of them
will be present at the meeting next
week and that many now names
may be proposed for membership.

Some stores size the customer up
as he enters their door ami nams the

if you are a judge of boots and shoes
you may get even, but the chances
are ten to one against you, of having
