At the time of re- building he had advised more supports under the loft at the west side of the barn. \ The coliapse of the loft came with- out warning. Many bales of hay had been stored there, more than two car- loads, and the work was still under- way when the accident occurred, as a third carload was to be put in. One man who heard the crash said he immediately thought a big explo- slon had taken place. Big support- ing timbers snapped off like matches and spliced rafters of the roof sep- arated at the splicing points and let a section of the roof down with the other wreckage. The carriages, sev- eral of them new, that were under the tons of weight that came smashing down upon them crumpled up like ac- cordions. They are now fit only for the junk heap. From what could be seen of them late in the afternoon, when some ‘of the wreckage had been removed, it appeared as if there would be little chance for salvage. The horses in the stable are kept in the basement, so were not injured in the accident, as the street level floor held firmly under the weight that came tumbling down upon it. Mr. Joy's loss is estimated at about $2,000, though he could fix no definite amount as an estimate of what the accident would cost him. Such loss as has been incurred will be total, as the insurance policies in force on the bullding and its contents do not cover any such kind of loss as was sustained in_the accident. It seemed a marvel that the men in the loft could escape without Injury, but they managed to do so by quick action in taking advantage of positions of safety, When the dust cleared away after the crash there was a hurried search to determine if anvone had been injured and when it was found that all had escaped there was great relief.

S Plain Business Proposition Can you afford to go on suffering from biliousness, sleeplessness, heart flutter and various other troubles so often brought on by coffee drinking, just because you like coffee? Thousands have quit coffee and are using Postum, and to their joy find that the annoying coffee troubles have quickly disappeared.. Not only that, but they find Postum a delightful beverage, with a rich flavour resembling that of Old Gov’t Java. Postum, unlike coffee, contains no caffeine nor other drug. Made only from clean, hard wheat, with a small per cent of New Orleans molasses, it is a pure, wholesome food-drink which can be freely enjoyed with benefit by all the family. Postum now comes in two forms: Regular Postum—must be boiled 15 to 20 minutes. Instant Postum—is 2 soluble powder. A scani teaspoonful to each cup of hot water dissolves instantly. The convenience of Instant Postum is apparent. But, when Qreparcd according to directions both kinds are exactly the same. The cost per cup is about the same. —Grocers everywhere sell both kinds. If coffee don’t agree, try POSTUM “There’s a Reason”
