Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada
E. Hart of Gordon, 8. D: *'Was taken
with a bad cold which settled on my
lungs; cough set in and finally termi
nated io Consumption. Four doctors
gave me up, saying I could not live
but a short time. I gave myself up to
my Savior, determined if I could not
stay with my friends on earth, I would
meet my absent ones above. My hus
band was advised to get Dr. King’s
Now Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds. I gave it a trial,
took in all eight bottles. It has cured
me, and thank God I am saved and
now a well and healthy woman.” Trial

“Say, you want to bear this story,” said
the Reading railroad conductor. “It’s a
good one on Joe Gibson, one of our fel
lowa Joe’s a good deal of a Udder him
self, but the boys arc having their turn at
him now. It happened np in the Trenton
yards a few nights ago. Joe’s train was to
be aide tracked at Nice avenue. Well,
when the train arrived at that point Joe
jumped off and ran ahead to the switch.
Be threw the switch over and waved his
lantern to the engineer to come ahead.
The next minute Joe happened to glance
due east down the track, and be nearly
dropped his lantern with fright. There
was the gnat round headlight of another
engine beaming down upon him on the
very track his train was about to take.
Recovering hitaaelf, be swung his lantern
furiously, at the same time shouting:
‘Pull ou 11 Pull outl Don’t you see her
coming’’ The engineer jammed her up
and stopped short. ‘What’s the matters
be shouted. Joe had gathered some new
knowledge in the meantime, and his ex
prearion changed completely. He didn’t
any anything, but simply gave the signal
to “go ahead. ” When the engineer pulled
into the track, he saw the full moon climb*-
lag up over the track dead ahead of him.
Jpahad rimply flagged the moon; that’s
aft."—Philadelphia Record.
