EM IS BURNED ME
Touches Warm Stove with
Celluloid Comb Clothing
Ignites Baby' Shrieks Warn
Parents Only to Find Little
One's Body Mass of Flames.
Extremely Bad was the ter
rible accident which occured at
the Townley residence on Sun
day afternoon, when Arthur P.
Townley, the little one year old
son of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Town
ley of this city, was burned to
death.
The mother and her baby
were in the house together,
the little fellow Bitting on the
floor, when she went out for a
minute to see her husband who
had just driven into the yard
and in order to amuse the child
during her absence gave him a
large celluloid comb to play with.
Mrs. Townley had not been gone
more than a minute when heart
rending cries were heard from
the house aud ran back only to
find her baby enveloped in a
huge mass of flames. As the
little fellow had been sitting
near the stove, it is thought that
in playing with the comb, it
must have struck the warm
stove, the heat in a flash igniting
the celluloid comb and setting
the clothing on fire. Neighbors
on hearing the cries of agony
and pain, rushed to the terrible
scene and several ran for med
ical aid but the flames had gotten
so much headway in that short
time that the clothing was al
most entirely destroyed before
anything could be done.. The
skin on nearly every part of the
body was in a terrible condition,
in many places being burnt
through to the flesh. .... The ears,
nose and lips were burnt crisp
and the sweet baby face of a
few moments before was now
beyond recognition. Drs. Gavey
and Donnelly done all within
their power to relieve the ter
rible pain of the little sufferer,
but the flames had done their
ravages and the little fellow
passed away in a short time.
- Arthur P. Townley was born
December 22nd, 1906 and died
January 12, 1908. The funeral
services were held at the family
residence on Monday, Jan. 13th
a two o'clock.

How a Cough Starts
nnnnnnAn? A cough is like a debt in that wwww
.' .. z
Dotn may be easily contracted
but soon become a nuisance
and often mighty hard to get
rid of. It takes very little to
start a cough or cold. An op
en window, an open door, sit
ting in a draught, insufficient
clothing, a sudden change from
a heated interior to a cooler
atmosphere these and plenty
other reasons are quite suffi
cient to cause one to realize
that a cough or cold has lodg
ed in the system. The symp
toms are Blight The incon
venience is trifling. But if it
remains unchecked the cough
grows worse and presently it
develops into a downright nuis
ance. The tickling sensation
at first experienced is Nature's
warning that an irritation is
affecting the mucous
membrane lining in the throat
and bronchial tubes. Every
tough -"affects"1" this delicate
membrane. The longer you
cough the more affected it be
comes. Presently the mem
brane becomes inflamed and
congested. Coughing becomes
frequent and painful, after
which the results become more
direct, dire and disastrous.
It is therefore obvious that an
effective quietus should, at the
very outset, be put upon the
cough. This is best done with
WHITE PINS AND TAR WITH
CODEINE COUGH SYRUP.
