DEATH IN ROMB
DROPPING STUNT
Port Huron, Mich., July 16.—With-
in sight of a largo crowd attending

The victims were: Henry J. Ver-

occupied by Mrs. Carter, their seven
children and Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Lut-
trell. The Carters and Luttrells live

collision and struck the pavement on
his head. His skull was fractured.

arm over the door of his small auto- j

a side highway.
For hours, he stood beside the high-

brought him to a hospital here. A
search for the truck with only a
hubcap as a clue, was continued late
at night. The driver of the truck
offered no aid.

Get Rid of
Malaria!
Banish Chills and Fever!
To conquer Malaria, you must do two
things. (1) Destroy the infection in the
blood. (2) Build up the blood to over-
come the effects and to fortify against
further attack. There is one medicine that
does these two things and that is Grove’s
Tasteless Chill Tonic! The tasteless qui-
nine in Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic de-
stroys the malarial infection in the blood
while the iron builds up the blood. Thou-
sands of people have conquered Malaria
with the aid of Grove’s Tasteless Chill
Tonic. In addition to being a noted rem-
edy for Malaria, it is also an excellent
tonic of general use. Grove’s Tasteless
Chill Tonic is pleasant to take and con-
tains nothing liauuful. Can Hiildrcn like,
it and they can take it safely. For sale
by all stores.
