Quite a serious accident happened at Nunda on Saturday evening last, the1 particulars of which, as we learn them, are as follows: The wife and two daughters of Capt. J. E. Beckley, ac­ companied by Horace Drury and wife, attended the Universalist sociable at Dr. Ballon's and when starting for home the team became frightened at a pass­ ing freight train, overturned the buggy« spilling out the occupants in a promis­ cuous manner. Mrs. Beckley was bad­ ly bruised about the face and head, and her youngest daughter was considerably bruised, but the rest escaped with a good shaking up. It was a miracle, in­ deed, that no bones were broken. Why Colds Are Dangerous. Because you have contracted ordinary colds and recovered from them without treatment of any kind, do not imagine for a moment that coldB are not danger­ ous. Everyone knows that pneumonia and chronic catarrh have their origin in a' common cold. Consumption is not caused by a cold, but the cold prepares the system for the receptiop and devel­ opment of the germs thtrt would not otherwise have found lodgment. It is the same with all infectious diseases. Diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles and whooping cough are much more likely to be contracted when the child has a cold. You will see from this that more real danger lurks in a common cold than in any other of the common ailments. The easiest and quickest way to ^ure a cold is to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The many remarkable cures effected by this preparation have made it a staple article of trade all over a large part of the world. For sale by all druggists.

Sudden Thare is prevailing In this kidneys tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by it -- heart disease, pneumonia, hear) failure or apoplexy are often the result of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is al­ lowed to advance tho *2 kidney-poi-soned blood will attack the vital organs or the es break down and waste away cell by cell.

A full line of school books at Petesch's Why don't school teachers marry? Miss Catherine Goggin of Chicago says it is because: ' . e "Spending most of her time as she does with immature minds makes the teacher gullible. Consequently if a teacher does marry she is likely, to mar ry a man who has a smooth tongue and is unable to support two. The patural consequence is that her sisters in the work who notice the inefficient husbands selected by their mates shun matrimony 'And teachers thru their work un consciously acquire the air and manner of authority and, as the men say, be come bossy. Their dictum is final on almost any subject. Consequently they are not favorites with the 'lords of cre­ ation'. " All the other teaehers at the execu­ tive session of the Chicago Teachers federation Saturday nodded their heads in grave approval of these theories ad­ vanced by their financial secretary. The subject VVUB brought up by a dis­ cussion of the pension fund, Miss Gog­ gin remarking that only a small per centage of teachers drop out of service to get married, altho few of theftn re­ main in it for the twenty-five years nec essary to go on the pension list. In addition to being financial secre­ tary of the federation, Miss Goggin is a member of the pablicity committee, and her utterances on marriage are regarded as official. Hard Times In Kansas.
