In- vestigate the Nu-Erb treatment at Karn's Drug Store, which thousands declare has amazed them with the promptness with which it overcomes many forms of stomach, kidney, liver and bowel ailments. Nu-Erb is a strengthening medicine that stimulates the body organs to proper functioning and drives aoisonous waste watter from the system. Mrs. A. Williams. 471; Dun- can street, Brantiord, Ontario, tells the following enthusiastic story of her experience with Nu-Erb: "For several years [I was bothered severly wih indiges- tion and » weakened stomach. I would have terrible ' pains through my stomach after each meal. My liver was sluggish causing dizzy spells and con- stipation. Rheumatism set in my joints and muscles and sharp pains would just seem to pierce all through my limbs and arms. "I had tried so many medi- cines without getting any bene- fits that I was about discour- aged with them all, but I kept reading so much about Nu-Erb that I finally decided to try it and it is a lucky thing for me that I did, for it has entirely relieved the indigestion and pains in my stomach.

This was well demonstrated on Saturday of this week when a party of tourists from Ohio stopped on King street with a metal box about eight inches wide, sixteen inches long and a foot high, attach- ed to the bumper on the front of their car. This in itself atiracted some attention, but when the owner of the car opened it and brought forth a bottle of milk to feed his baby, the bottle being surrounded by particles of ice, genuine inter- est was experienced. On inquiring, it was found that the "refrigerator" was home made and served in an excellent capacity while on the road.

Four others, Pilot Gabril Hanin, Mech- anic Jean Vidal, Wireless Opera- tor Henry Willins, and the Gen- eral Secretary of the aeroplane } company, Edouard le Frane, also Bokanowski an his four compan- fons in the plane were burned to death within five minutes after taking off. Their plane seemed to leave the ground with difficulty 4 anl a few seconds afterward watch- ers saw great flames shoot from the motor. Evidently the pilot tried to turn back and lanl, for the plane was seen to make a sudden sweep toward the right. Falls 800 Feet The motor then however was al- most out of commission and the nlane had lost speed. From a height of 300 feet it fell fluttering to the ground, and long before any one could reach it it was a raging mass of flames. Only after two hours could the five bodies he ex) tricated and with great difficulty identified. Throughqut the country the dis- aster has provoked a profound sense of depression.

Just previous to boarding the plane, while chatting with General du Perray and Cap- tain Houdert, the Minister safl, in a joking manner: *"Newspapermen insinuate that T never fly; that 7 take all possible precautions eve® when 1 approach a plane standing still. You see," he sald, as he fumped into the cabin of the plane, "'an aeroplane trin has no terrors for me." Five minutes later Bok- anowski was dead. M. Bokanowski was the younez- est Minister in the Poincare Cab- inet. While his political career was short, it was nevertheless a brilliant one. He had been n member of the Paris Bar since 1904, and was elected a Deputy in 1914. Since that time he had been returned at every election. In 1921 he was made General Secre- tary of the Budget Commission, and Premier Poincare entrusted to him the portfolio of Commerce and Aviation in 1926. er In Torpedoed Ship The dead Minister's war record includes four citations and he was decorated with the Legion of Hon- or and Croix de Guerre. In 1918, while aboard the steamship Proy- ince, en route to Saloniki, his ship was torpedoed and he swam for balf an hour before he found a raft. upon which he kept afloat for ten hours before being rescued. Bokanowskl was born fin Ta Havre om August 31, 1879. He celebrated his forty-ninth birthday onlo last Friday.

They are still at large. vy ¥ Seizing the key which Turnkey Nicol had placed for a moment on a peg, the pair--Joseph Farmer, 17, Toronto, and Kenneth Bethune, 17, North Bay, rushed along the corridor, opened the huge steel doors and then slammed them shut, leaving the turnkey a prison- er in their stead. Then they had nothing to do but walk leisurely through the jail office, out the front door and re- sume their liberty. They made their escape so effectively that not a trace of them has been discover ed. The jall office was deserted on Labor Day. No one saw them leave. Prisoner Gives Alarm It was sometime before the alarm was given. Turnkey Nicol was a prisoner in the prison laundry. He shouted. Only other prisoners heard him. He called to ong of them to raise the alarm. The man could do nothing but hammer on the iron gate. Finally he attracted the attention of Jail Governor Trethewy's son, who was in the private living quarters. By this time the fugitives were safely away from the institution. Labor Day and washing day combined to provide an opportun- i ty for what officials believe was not a planned escape, It was a holiday in Stratford but work went on as usual at the county jail. A number of the in- mates had been assisting in the washing and the task was just about completed when Turnkey Nicol allowed Farmer and Bethune to assist in hanging out the clothes --as a means of exercise. The clothes were all on the line when Bethune was instructed to mop the laundry floor. Farmer, in an adjacent room, was salvaging a pair of shoes from a pile of dis- cards. Eo YT Turnkey Nicol carefully placed his key on a peg while he went to disconnect the water from the water-power washing machine. He was still busy when the door slam- med and he found himself a pris- oner. First Escape for Years Officials believe that one of the lads saw the key, signalled to the other, the corridor in an easy hut unpre- meditated escape, It was the first escape in many years from the local jail, On August 18 the two youths, along with two others, were con- victed in Listowel on a charge of et, and remanded to the county all, Bethune on entering the insti+ tution, gave his address as Prin- cess Street, North Bay.

Leamington, Sept. 3.--After elim- inating Chatham in two straight games in the Intermediate O.B.A A. play-offs, Leamington, last year's champions, fell by the wayside today when Stratford Nationals invaded the local stronghold and went home with a 3 to 1 victory in the first gane of the series between the two clubs, The Nationals displayed a sparkling defence, which offset Leamington's edge on the offensive and on mound work. Hillman only allowed seven scat- tered hits and struck out ten, wherc- as Marks, Stratiord's ace, was touch- ed for eight hits and only fanned two of his opponents. But the former's infield support went to pieces tem- porarily in the eighth and presented the Nationals with two runs by com- mitting three glaring errors, and the two markers settled the verdict. a vi H.
