One of the Reasons.
The Kane Republican says: In ail
probability one of the reasons why the
Pennsylvania has determined to build
its own line to Buffalo was the dissatis
faction that it felt at the Buffalo,
Boehester & Pittsburg Railway divert
ing its traffic from the Allegheny
Valley Railroad without the latter's
consent, in violation of a contract ex
isting between the two companies.
1 Ever since this occurrence it has been
j known to a few that the Pennsy would
j eventually secure its own permanent
; connection for the Allegheny Valley
j Railway between Pittsburg and Buf
; falo.

finding the doctor in, ho left word for
him to come at once on his return. He
also bought a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, which he hoped would
give some relief until the doctor should
arrive. In a few hours he returned,
saying the doctor need not come as the
child was much better. The druggist,
Mr.Otto Scholz, says the family has since
recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy to their neighbors and friends
until he has a constant demand for it
from that part of the country. For sale
