I want to tell you what wonderful benefit I have re
ceived from the use of Thedford's Black-Draught," writes
Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky.
"It certainly has no equal for la grippe, bad colds,

saved my little girl's life. When she had the measles,
they went in on her, but one good dose of Thedford's

more trouble. I shall never be without

It seems that the voung man was
hunting ouail and ducks, a few miles
out of Orange Heights, when the ac
cident occurred. Others with him
were the boy's father and a friend.
Mr. Lowranee in hunting not far
from the road had run into quite a
number of snipe, and fired four or
five jshot?. The firing of the gun
frightened the horse, which started
off down the road. Clyde, gun m
hand, hurried to the buggy, got in,
and evidently attempted to secure t.he
lines, which had fallen over the dash
board. In making the attempt the
gun was in some way discharged.
The father heard the shot and notic
ed that the horse had turned and was
coming back. The boy was sitting
noright in the buggy when the horse
was stopped. The father noticed,
however, that his sorl was evidently
injured.' He lifted Clvde from the
