FRIGHT RESTORES SPEECH
Flames in Boom of Dumb and, Par*
alyzed Man So Scare Him
That He Begins to Talk.
Thomas Herring, a dumb and par*
alyzed old man living with his son-in
law, E. Moss, in London, was so over
come with fright when a fire broke out
in his bedroom recently that be sud
denly began to speak.
Herring, who is 71 years old, was a
robust man, and up to a short time ago
was enjoying good health, even work
ing at a small blacksmith’s forge. One
day he suffered a stroke of paralysis,
which also left him speechless.
The other evening two men rushed
In shouting that one of the upper
rooms was on fire. Running up stairs
to the chamber of his father-in-law
Moss saw that the window curtains
were ablaze and the woodwork was
alight. The wind had blown open the
window and this had knocked over a
lampf*causing the fire
The paralyzed man lay on the bed
helpless, unable to stir hand or foot
or raise a cry of alarm. The agonized
look on his face showed, however, that
he realized the terrible nature of his
position. The flames were smothered
before they had made much progress,
and the patient escaped unhurt
Shortly after the family were sur
prised to hear the voice of the par
alyzed father. He was able to speak
distinctly a few words and his speech
was ooherent The next days his pow
ers of speech were still further restored
and he regained the complete use of his
voice and was able easily to converse
with the family.
The' restoration of the lost faculty
was evidently the outcome of the shock
which his system experienced on the
outbreak of the fire.
Although the paralysis of the limbs
remains, Mr. Herring’s health has im
proved so much that he ha3 been re
moved from the house to a hospital,
where It is the opinion that he may
live a long time.
EXTOLS MARTIAL SPIRIT.
Gen. Sickles Declares War Was Or
dained by God and We Will
Always Have It.
The cornerstone of a monument to
be erected in Salem Fields cemetery,
Cypress Hills, L. I., in honor of Jews
who lost their lives in defense of the
union was laid recently. Nathan Straus,
chairman of the auxiliary committee of
the Hebrew Union Veteran association,
presided. In the course of his remarks
Mr. Straus referred to “A time when
war will be reckoned a survival of bar
barism.” This brought a protest from
Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles, retired,
who lost a leg at Gettysburg.
“Although we are assembled In a
cemetery,” said Gen. Sickles, “this la
not a funeral occasion. No death is
more glorious than death for one’s
country. I know many think that wars
are dreadful, but we have had our
wars since the world began, and we
shall always have wars. In the provi
dence of God war was ordained, and
the human race will always fight for
what it loves. This naition was found
ed through war. Would George III.
have agreed to arbitration to let us
found an Independent government? No.
We have liberty because our fathers
fought seven years for independence,
and we will always have to fight to
maintain our freedom.
“I hope the time will never come
when we shall cease to be a martial
people, or be unwilling to take up ai ms
In defense of our country. In the day
we are unwilling to fight for our lib
erties we shall surely lose the respect
of the world.”
HORSE FALLS IN CISTERN.
Then Battles with a Water Moccasin
for Life—B,escued by
Firemen.
A horse belonging to William Scales,
of Kansas City, Kan., fell in an unused
cistern the other day. The animal was
almost submerged, nothing but his head
and neck remaining above the water
When the hose company from fire head
quarters arrived a large water moccasin
about five feet long had wrapped Itself
about the horse's neck and had bitten
the animal several time*.
The snake was an ugly looking reptile,
and for a few moments the firemen hesi
tated about going down in the well. Vol
unteers were called for. and some of the
men, more venturesome than the rest,
climbed down on a ladder and with a
large stick killed the snake. The hors*
was then lifted from the cistern and a
veterinary surgeon applied antidotes
for the snake’s bite. Although the horse
suffered considerably from the com
bined effects of the fall and the snake
bites, it will recover.
Unearths Petrified Dinosaur.
W. H. Utterbeck, representing the
Carnegie museum at Pittsburg, Pa, has
In his possession portions of a petrified
dinosaur, called the triceratops, which
were exhumed on Hell creek, in Dawson
county, Montana. The load weighed
2,500 pounds. The remaining portions
will weigh about the same, and it will
take until fall to excavate them.
Chickens Find Lost Diamond.
A diamond ring valued at $150, which
was lost by Miss Rebecca Rennoagh at
the home of Wright Griffon, in Great
Barrington, Mass., 14 years ago. was
unearthed by chickens vigoroasiy
scratching in the soil the other day. The
jewel was found by Frederick Burg
hardt, who ha3 notified Miss Reanough.
The ring is in perfect condition.

THE EVILS OF
CONSTIPATION.
Everyone Knows When He is Consti
pated and Everyone Should Know
the Risk He is Running When
He Fails to Promptly
Correct it,
Any Disease Epidemic or Otherwise to
Which He or She May be Exposed
is Sure to Result Seriously.
There are two ways to remove consti
pation; the wrong way is to drench the |
bowels with a powerful, griping, drastic
cathartic that injures the coating of the
bowel channels and produces an early j
return of the troublf in a more chronic j
form. The right way is to use a natural,
easy and mild laxative that tones up and j
strengthens the bowels and leaves a
healthful influence behind it. Prickly
Ash Bitters will empty the bowels just
as thoroughly as the harsher cathartics,
and combines all the tonic and strength
ening properties necessary to perma- j
nently cure the habit.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure it in red on the front label.
