BABY GIRL'S DEATH
DUE TO LOVE OF MUSIC
DOROTHY DENNEY'8 BROTHER
HUNTING VIOLIN WHEN
HE SHOT HER.
Her fondnes for mualc wa indirect
ly the cause of the death of Dorothy
Denney, the three-year old daughter of
Clark Denney who waa accldently shot
and killed by her nine-year old brother,
George Denney, at their home-near
Estacada Monday.
The children were at play In a bed
room and the mother was at her work
In the -kitchen adjoining.--- It was cus
tomary for Mr. Denney to keep a 'vio
lin near the dresser, hanging on the
wall. Ater the little gin had called
her brother to get the violin for her
so she could "play" he climbed on a
high . chair, a both children
were email and unable to reach
the musical Instrument. Lately many
of Mr. Denney'a chickens bad been
caught by an animal, and he had load
ed the gun, which waa hanging near
the violin, not dreaming hla children
would ever take down the heavy fire
arm.
Mrs. Denney waa shocked to hear
the report of the gun, and, rushing to
the room, found her little daughter un
conscious and blood streaming from a
terrible wound In the stomach. The
child lived but a few minute.
Neighbor rushed to the bouse, and
Coroner Wilson, of this cty, wa called
by telephone, but upon investigation
found an inquest unnecessary. .
George, the little brother, does not
ae,m to realize the dreadful result of
the accident, and la only able to give a
disjointed account of it. Mr. and Mrs.
Denney are prostrated over the los a of
their little daughter.
The funeral was held Tueaday after
noon at 3 o'clock at Estacada. and the
Interment waa in the cemetery there.
Ever Have "The Blues
Most persons will immediately re
spond, "Yea," to thla question, but few
of them probably could give you any
satisfactory Idea a to the cause or
reason for thi despondent, low-spirited
condition. - - - -
Physiologists have discovered that
thla condition Is brought about by the
seeming Inability of the Liver to sepa
rate poisonous secretion . from the
blood, and, a a consequence, these
are taken back Into the system.
In the treatment of such cases, we
strongly recommend Rexall Liver Salt"
because of the success so many peo
ple have experienced In using this
preparation.
Rexall Liver Salts are manufactured
In two sizes, 2Rc. and 50c., and we
