ELEVEN DROWN AS BRIDGE GIVES WAY

Stamping of Lads Who Were Eager to go Bathing CAUSE of Accident --- May be More in the Stream.

LAWRENCE, Mass., July 1.--A narrow wooden walk over 15 feet of water to the municipal bath house in the Merrimac river Monday gave way under the stamping feet of a crowd of impatient boys and at least 11 of the little fellows were drowned. There may be more bodies in the stream. The boys, ranging from 9 to 15 years, were waiting for William B. Blythe, the bath house keeper, to open. No one knew Monday night how many there were in the party, but it is thought 50 is a conservative estimate. The boys were jumping up and down as they shouted to Blythe to open up when the supports sank and the walk extension dropped like & trap door, rolling the lads into the river. There is a swift current at this point drawn by the falls a quarter of a mile below, and the youngsters were caught in this. Many of them could not swim. Witnesses on the river bank say that all disappeared in a flash, but a moment later there was a struggling mass on the surface. The stronger ones, who could swim, struck out bravely for the boat house and a score saved themselves. Their cries brought aid and several others were pulled ashore. Five unconscious forms were brought from the water, and two of these were finally resuscitated. Efforts to restore the others were futile.

AS TOLD BY AUNT GERTIE. Chapter III Finally the great day arrived! The merchan't son, who was making believe to be a Turkish prophet, dressed up in a new dressing gown and started out again for the castle. This time, as before, he rode through the air in his trusty Flying Trunk. When he reached the palace, the king and queen and the princess, with all the court attendants, were sitting awaiting him. The first thing the queen did after introductions were over, was to ask the merchant's son to tell a story. "Yes, do," added the king, "and be sure to make it funny." "Certainly I will," replied the merchant's son. And he commenced: "This is the story of a bundle of matches who thought themselves extremely fine. Because they descended from a tree trunk in a big forest, they had this high and mighty no-

tion of themselves. But now, at the time of this story, they were reclining in a safe place on the shelf in a kitchen. Near them was an iron saucepan. 'My history,' said the

saucepan, 'is very different from yours, Mr. Match family. I have always held a lowly position. I have always been scrubbed hard and boiled and burned. But I think I am a very important person in this house, because all the real good things that need lots of cooking are boiled in me. Of course, my life is very quiet. But then so is the life of all us folks who live on the kitchen shelves. " 'To be sure, the water pail gets to go outdoors and see strange faces

Why, one day he said such an awful thing that the poor old jar that has stood high up in the pantry for so long fell to the floor in a thousand pieces. She was shocked to death.' " 'Oh, you talk too much,' piped up the tinder-box. 'Let's have a nice, pleasant evening and not have one person do all the talking.' " 'Oh, surely,' said the matches, 'but let's first decide who is of the highest rank. " 'Oh, no,' said the earthen pitcher. I don't care to talk about myself. Let's have an entertainment instead. Let's tell a story. I will begin it.' " (To be Continued.)

The Specialist Who Devotes His Entire

I Know How to Cure Nervous and Chronic Diseases of Men Science Is on the wing. Treatments used one year ago are back numbers now. To be a TOPNOTCH Specialist requires not only skill and energry, but capital. The public is not satisfied with a doctor who sticks in the OLD RUT. Neither is it satisfied with the electric belt faker or the pretending specialist. Nowadays men demand up-to-date treatment, not smooth talk and empty promises. To be a leader now it is absolutely necessary that you possess an EXPENSIVE LABORATORY where scientific investigations can be continually carried on. This I have, and I am prepared to give my patients the benefit of all the GRUAT DISCOVERIES as soon as they are perfected. Others watch my announcements and at once they claim to do the same things. Men come to me because they read my STRAIGHT-FORWARD OFFERS, or because I have CURED some of THEIR FRIENDS. I AM PROUD OF MY RECORD. "914" CURES BLOOD POISON

to Cure You

No Pain, Return Home Same Day Giving a patient Neo-Saivarsan, "914," Prof. Ehrlich's New German Remedy for Blood Poi--son. This is the intravenous method, directly into the blood, the only way it should be given. Extract from letter of Prof. Ehrlich: Judging from all the reports received by me, it appears that the intravenous injection is to be preferred to all other methods of administration, as far as permanency of effect is concerned. Although I have to admit that this method of administration will prove an obstacle to the introduction of the remedy in general practice, on account of certain technical difficulties. I believe that the interests of the patient demand that only the most efficient form of treatment should bo decided upon. I should feel much obliged to you if you will as heretofore assist me in this direction, and in the future employ as much as possible the intravenous mode for the admin-

istration of the remedy. (Signed) P. Ehrlich. Thomas A. Edison, the great "electrical wizard," says: "The German discovery for the cure of Blood Poison is the most important achievement of the year 1911-and that most of us have the disease and do not know it."

I guarantee a painless and safe treatment, giving the Genuine German Remedy according to the great German professor's latest instructions. MY METHODS appeal to those who THINK and who want the benefit of the LATEST SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS that drives DISEASED GERMS out of your body. My advice is FREE and valuable, whether you are treated or not. If you need help, make your wants known to an HONORABLE SPECIALIST. No matter about money. COME if possible. IT'S BEST. I will explain to you my treatment for Varicose Veins, Nervous Debility, Blood Poisons, Kidney Diseases, Bladder Troubles and other diseases of mankind.

METHODS

The FEAR OF FAILURE to obtain a cure in your case may have deterred you from taking treatment, or you may have been one of the unfortunates who have been treated in vain by inexperienced physicians. FREE TREATMENTS, FREE TRIAL SAMPLES, PATENT MEDICINES, or by false testimonials you may have been lured to a combination of traveling men representing themselves as great specialists, but having no knowledge of medicine. When you come to my office you see a regular licensed physician. I am in no way connected with any doctor, company or combination of men who copy my advertisements. My conscience, my profession, my reputation and teaching condemn all such quackers. No books, almanacs, nor symptora blank schemes. No reputable doctor will resort to such methods.

I Charge Nothing to Prove My Methods Will Cure BlOOD POISON, SKIN DISEASES, URINARY OBSTRUCTIONS, STRICTURE, VARICOCELE, HYDROCELE, NERVOUS DECLINE, MALE WEAKNESS. PILES, FISTULA, KIDNEY, BLADDER AND PROSTATIC AFFECTIONS, DRAINS AND ALL NERVOUS, CHRONIC AND SPECIAL DISEASES OF MEN DUE TO EVIL HABITS, .EXCESSES, OR THE RESULT OF THE SPECIFIC DISEASES.

DISEASES

MEN

Lost Power the Cause of Mental and Physical Suffering Perfect health is possible only when every function of the human body is properly performed. Man is the paragon of animals, the perfection of all created beings, but how seldom do we see the true, the perfect man, walking among his fellows a solitary gem? How many who fail to reach the dimensions of their splendid model! And yet the young man, the middle-aged man, the man of mature age who walks the streets with head banging, afraid to meet the eye of his fellow beings, dreading lest they read his inmost secret, still follows the paths of ignorance for while his youth may be wrecked, while his vitality may be lowered, while his body may be the prey of his mind, yet there is hope, that his living death may turn and give him years of happiness, lifting him to that plane of manhood which all men should tread. I want to help men who are weak in vitality, who are nervous, despondent and lacking self- confidence; who feel as if old age was coming on too soon, because of the dulling of their youthful fire and ambition.

SURE

A SMALL

FEE

To be strong is the aim of every man, and yet how many we find who are wasting the vitality and strength which Nature gave them. Instead of developing into the strong, vigorous man that Nature intended them to be, they find themselves stunted and despondent no ambition to do anything. They struggle aimlessly along, sooner or later to become victims of that dread disease, nervous debility, their finer sensibilities blunted and their nerves shattered. It is hard for a weak man to have noble sentiments; such things are born of warm blood, healthy nerves and a strong heart. Every weak man is more or less despondent, lacks the magnetic enthusiasm of youthful energy, and should not hesitate to make almost any sacrifice to again be happy, light-hearted and full of joyous imputes, to be free from brain wandering and dull, stupid feeling, to have confidence and self-esteem and command the admiration of men and women. It is the law of Nature that all of the powers of the body and brain should be retained unimpaired until the last. The vitality of youth can be conserved by right living, and it is only because men ignorantly amd recklessly waste their store of nerve force that they become feeble wrecks and find life not worth living. Scores upon scores of men cf all ages and in nearly every walk of life have been rescued by Dr. Fleener. "With him the treatment of these dlsaaes is net an experiment. If he feels that he can't cure you, he says so and you part friends. You cannot afford to neglect this condition; neglect has strewn the seeds of discord and unhapplness in hundreds of home, which otherwise would have been the abode of peace and happiness The greatest gift to man Is a healthy. Manly System; if your vitality Is net what Nature intended, you are the cause, and Inasmuch as it lies within your reach to have this gift restored, what man. who Is truly a man. will not seek the opportunity?
