If Chamberlain’s Colic, Chol- era and Diarrhoea Remedy is taken as soon as these symptoms appear, they can ward off the disease.

More cannot be said without violating confidence, but it can be stated that it relates to the harmonious passing of the tariff’ bill by the vote of every Democratic Sena. tor. The Pennsylvania manufacturers who paid out good money to send sev- en or eight hundred people, under the high sounding title of Delegates from the National Workmen's Protective Tariff League, to Washington to pro- test against the tariff bill, made a very poor investment.

He did not have her long with bim, but communicated with her and a copy of his message is in possession of Newton Shaw, the well known proprietor of the Leonard house, Mr. Shaw was careful to keep it from being made public while the trial was pending and in progress at Washington, as he did not want any subpoenaes sent to Clearfield. The Col. was at the Leon ard house and he wanted to send a message to Madeline. He wrote it out and stepped to the hotel telephone and transmitted it to the telegraph office leaving the original copy in the hotel office. It was picked up and preserv- od by Mr. Shaw.
