To the women in these - homes, such standard remedies as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound come as a boon and a blessing. For nearly forty years this splen- did medicine, compounded from roots and herbs, has been relieving the women of this country - from - the worst forms of female ills. malone could have stood such a test. the ; A number Merit | Ig SERIOUS ACCENT NARROWLY AVERTED SPIRITED TEAM ATTACHED TO OF - WADSWORTH'S COacHES RUKNS Away. OCCUPANTS BRUISED AND MJURD Miles Lawlor Has ftJar Badly Torn dition When Assisted from Coach -Others Received Minor Injuries -Accident - Happened as Men Were on Their Way to Funeral. What might \nave proved a very ing when a team of spirited horses, attached to Wadsworth's coaches, became frightened and ran away, throwing out the occupants of the coach and doing some damage 'to the coach. The horses were in charge of Harry Remington, and was on its way to pick up the bear- ers for the funeral of James J. Ken- nedy, which was held at St. Mary's church this morning. The coach had just been after Miles O'Connor and Richard O'Connor at their home on Poole avenue and was proceeding down West street when the horses started to run. The other occupant one - of Second street, and the next person anne of, Church street. The horses after running the whole length of West street collided with a large elm West Fulton street, just west of the F., J. & G. Railroad tracks. The coach was overturned and the driv- er thrown from his seat. Reming- ton clung to the reins and the horses were stopped before they had gone more than a few feet. As the door of the coach was clos- ed when the accident occurred, it was necessary for the vehicle to be righted, before the men inside could get out and the extent of damage be ascertained. When the bystanders 1 finally could get to the men, it was learned that all were sore or less bruised, but that Miles Lawlor seem- he was covered with blood and seem- ingly unconscious. - Of the others, Miles O'Connor was some - bruised and scratched about the head, and Richard O'Connor escaped with a few bruises. The driver was also a trifle bruised but was able to walk to his home and to resume his duties in the barn this afternon,. Mr. Law- lor was rushed to the Nathan Lit- tauer and Dr. George Lenz summoned. It was found necessary to take a few stitches in the ear of the injured man, but otherwise he was not badly hurt and was able to return to his home this afternoon. and will have to go to the repair shop before it can again be put in service.
