Most Serious Accidents. The two most serious accidents during th year ending November 30, 1909, were the following: Derailment at Williams Avenue and Cherry Streets, Portland, on the St. Johns line of the Portland Rail way, Light & Power company, Janu ary 19, 1909. A St. Johns-Portland train of two passenger cars left the track on a sharp curve at Williams avenue and Cherry streets, and crashed into the sidewalk. The motor car was turned over on its side and 26 passengers were injured more or less seriously by the Impact and des truction of the cars. The cars were equipped with straight air brakes, which were working in good order a short distance from the curve. In vestigation was made by the com mission. It appeared that if the ex isting air brake equipment had been supplemented by an emergency line in all probability the accident would not have occurred. The company announced its intention to equip all its two-car trains using .straight air with emergency line .equipment and afterwards notified the commission that it had done so. o Trouble .Maker?

When a sufferer , from stomach trouble takes Dr. King's New Life Pills he's mighty glad to see his Dys pepsia and IndigesUon fly, but more he's tickled over hie new, fine ap petite, strong nerves, healthy vigor, all because stomach, liver and kid neys now work right 25c at J. C. Perry. In spite of the fact that the word dyspepsia means literally bad cook, It will not be fair for many to lay the blame on the cook If they begin the Christmas dinner with little ap petite and end it with distress or nausea. It may not be fair for any to do that let us hope so for the sake of the cook! The disease dys pepsia indicates a bad stomach, that is a weak stomach, rather than a bad cook, and for a weak Btomach there Ib nothing else equal to Hood'd Sarsaparilla. It gives the stomach, vigor and tone, cures dyspepsia, creates appetite, and makes eating the pleasure it should be. CASTOR I A Tor Infants and Children.
