His Life Was Saved.
Mr. J, E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of
Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful
deliverance from a frightful doath. In
telling of it he says: "I wus taken with
Typhoid Fever, that ran into Pneu
monia. My lungs became hardened. I
was so weak I could hardly sit up In
bed. Nothing hulped me. I expected
to. soon die of Consumption, when I
heard of Dr. King's New Discovery.
One bottle gave great relief. I contin
ued to use it and am now well and
strong. I can't say too much in its
praise." This marvelous medicine is
the surest and quickest cure in the
world for all Throut and Lung Trouble.

o'clock. The leu in Unit river gorged
at Bagdad Monday and by Tuesday
morning the river was bank full, the
water bucking up so much that the
lower part of Leech burg was Inundated,
although no serious damage wus done
there.
It was about noon Wednesday when
the gorge broke, and like a race horse
it swept down tho river, currying trees
and everything with It. Down It went
against tho railroad bridge, where it
lodged for a short time only. Higher
and higher the ice crowded up against
the center pier until at lust, with n loud
crush, tho center of the bridge guve

What's tho matter of this plan for
getting rid of tho tramp nuisance? An
Ohio town has adopted it and it is said
to work like a noodle: 'Residents of the
town are supplied with tickets by tho
officials and when a tramp calls at the
back door for a "hand out" he is given
a ticket good for a meal at any restau
rant, when countersigned by the mayor.
When a tramp presents the tickot for
signature he will bo asked to pound
stone until be has earned the meal.
The tramps soon catch on and give the
town a wide berth. ,
