On "Monday, when Messrs Patterson and Linforth's car was proceeding to Mangamingi with the mails and five passengers, a startling accident was met with on the Mangamingi ridge, says the Argus. The car, which was heavily load «d, was proceeding slowly up the Mangamingi ridge when the steering gear locked as the car was negotiating a bead. The car went over a bank and turned completely over, falling upside down, with the splashboard resting on a boxthom hedge. It was this that saved the occupants from serious injury or perhaps from death The driver (Hurley) managed to extricate himself, and also the Eev. Mr Hobday, who was one of the passengers. Assistance was, procured, the car righted, and the other passengers released. Mrs Martin and i Miss Hook both escaped with slight bruises, but Mr Baxter, who had been riding in the front seat with the driver, was somewhat badly bruised and scratched. The only damage sustained by the car was that the front axle was tent, and the wind-screen cracked, although in righting the car again one of the back wheels was broken. The passengers suffered little beyond bruises and a shaking, and their escape was a most remarkable one. Another car was secured and the journey was completed without further mishap. The sale period is now over, and during the next few weeks The Economic will be busy opening up new goods. Full particulars will be c;ivcn as they are opened, and we will be glad to see I all our old friends, and many new ones, inspecting them. —Advt. Remember, If you want to get r:d of that heavy dull feeling in the bead, which accompanies Nasal Catarrh, just tak«» a good inhalation of "Nazol" through a Nazol Inhaler and tct lnamedi^*« relief.—Advt.
