STRUCK BY FALLING IRON.
While crossing the street in front of a building a ,pedestrian dropped a tin in the roadway. His attention was drawn to it by a passer-by. He returned to the scene just as a sling of iron overhead over-balanced. Shouts of warning came from every hand. The man .hesitated, momentarily confused, half moved to lift his tin—too late ! A falling piece of iron crashed heavily down and his tiij of Bears’ Tobacco was totally destroyed. Fortunately Bears’ pure Virginia leaf costs only B<l. an ounce loose, or Is. Gd. For a handy pocket tin containing two ounces. Try this delicious smoke. Sold at all tobacconists.
