Chief Elliot Fays Work Cannot Begin Be fore the Fall THE IAXD MUST FIRST BE SURVEYED At next Monday's meetings of Council an ordinance for the purchase of the Captain Xccld farm will be reported by the Chari ties Committee. It will be passed, and the only thing then to be done to complete the purchase will be to hare the document feigned by the Mayor. All this was made evident at the meeting of the committee yesterday afternoon. As to the Mayor, he will probably sign the ordinance at once, as he realizes that with the best speed possible the city will hare less than a year in which to erect the new Foorhonse. He has stated that this farm comes nearer his ideas than any yet selected, and, although the price is steep, it seems relatively as low as any that can be bought when the city is to be the pur chaser. The Mayor, however, still believes that a 100-acre farm wonld be plenty large enough, and that the city should buy it for not more than 5150 an acre. Many think the Xeeld farm is not worth more than that Think It the Most Available Sit. There were 14 members of the Charities Committee present when the roll was called yesterday. No time was wasted in prelim inaries. Chief Elliot's report .was read by City Clerk Booth. It recommended the 2teeld farm as the best offered, but said the Sewicklev Dairy Company's farm at Sewick ley would suit admirably, were it not situ ated so (ar back lrom the railroad. It was stated that 25 minutes were required to drive to the farm lrom the railroad, and most of the drive was up a stee hill. The coal and building stone in the Neeld farm, its 700 rods of Frontage on Chartiers creek, its 100 acres of bottom land and its convenience to one railroad while another passes through it were mentioned in the re port as good reasons for its adoption as a Poor Farm site. All the original proposals 1 eceived were attached to the report, but were jmt read, the recommendation of the Chief being approved with an affirmative return to Councils on motion of Mr. Fiinn, of the Southside. No Opposition to the Report. When remarks were called for on the mo tion no one ottered to say a word, and Chair man Perry begged that if any member had nay objections to offer this was the time and place and he wanted to bear from them. Mr. Flinn talked in the same strain, but there was no response, and the motion was adopted unanimously. Thereupon it was suggested that the ordi nance ior the purchase of the farm be acted upon, so that it could be passed finally at next Monday's meeting of Councils. Mr. Itonth ruled this out by declaring that the document must be referred to the commit tee by Councils before the committee could report it, but a suggestion was adopted that the ordinance be considered at once, and on Monday alter it is referred the committee can withdraw, recommend it and linve it passed before Councils adjourn. This suggestion suited Chief Elliot, and vvhen asked for his opinion he said: Chirr nillot Says Time Is Everything. "Time is everything now, and I think it cdvisable to save all we can. It will be fall before we can do anything, even under the most favorable circumstances. This iarm has never been surveved since Captain "eeld bousht it. There are lrom 223 to 240 acres, but as it is offered by the acre the ex act amount must be determined before a purchase can be closed. It will fake a month for the preparation of building plans and before the plans are finally decided on ihey must go down to Philadelphia and be submitted for the approval of the State Board of Charities. After that some time will be required to advertise tor bids Jorthe work, so that it will require until about September 1 to get things started, leaving only ten months for the erection of the buildings." No further remarks were made, the new ordinance was read and the committee ad journed to meet during the Council meeting on Monday. A World's Fair Inveitinent.

ONE CAN BE OUT OF DOORS. Nature Building- Up Ita Work What This Season la'Sest Adapted To A Few Timely Remarks. Jlow comes the summer I Nature la warm and loving and generous In summer. n It fruotlfles and builds up. It supplies anew the old exhausted sources. It rein vlgorates and rejuvenates. The slot teel almost well in summer, so gentle Is the season to the ailing. The vic tim or a ohronio disease feels an abatement of the sharpness of his suffering. Nature does much for us, bnt she does not do all. It is not wise to assume that when this beautiful season works an improve ment in the system, complete health will be the result. No. Bathor think that this is an offer of help from nature, whloa you should at onoe take advantage of. In suoh diseases as catarrh and its kindred aliments it Is especially advisable that the sufferer be not deceived by the bland influ ence ot the summer season, and that he recognize the necessity or securing ' that medical aid whloh is needed ror perfect co ooeratlon with nature. Catarrh Is an obstinate ana aangerous disease. It clings tenaciously to the system and grows more malignant with each re turning fall. The time to take treatment for diseases of a catarrhal nature i now. The climatic conditions are most favorable. In fact, the best or the year (the liability to taking cold being the lowest) and two or three months' treatment now will do more good than nine months' in cold or rainy weather. Time and again Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers have advised patients in desperate stages of catarrhal trouble to wait until emmmnr tinfnrn tftkinir treatment. Time and time again have they urged the necessity of taking treatmont while the weather was favorable to a cure. Vow is that time. Those who suffer from catarrh should take advantage of all the J innuences mat operate now. in mvui ui a cure. They should not put off treatment until next winter's stormy days, but should prudently "mend their roof while the sun shines." Now Is the tlmo, and theoppoitu nlty is Just what is desired for the worst cases. Do not let it go by, but place your seir under the treatment of Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers, and have done ror you in the next few months what might not be pos sible the next summer. CONSUMPTION'S GHASTXT CLUTCH. A Narrative of Remarkable Force From Sir. Andrew Glover Bronchial Catarrh and Its Appalling Results. Do you know what it is to have consump tion threaten your life? It Is to hear death knocking at the door with quiet but appall ing Btrokes. It Is to hear the echoing laugh of the de stroyer in every cough forced from the chest.

No wonder, then, that those who feel the ghastly clutch of this monster rush to the phj sicians who can slayit. No wonder that those who have escaped It cry aloud and call upon others to seek relief from the source whence tney obtained it. Mr. Andrew Glover, 217 Irwin avenue, Al legheny, makes this statement: "I want everyono to whom it may he of In terest to know now I suffered from incipient consumption and how I was cured. "Three years ot pain and suffering; three years or medical treatment from the best physicians without even small relief; three years of constant struggle for health, and now perfect health and strength beyond my wildest hope. This is the story in brief. But to he particular: "My trouble originated in neglected colds, then followed all the symptoms ot catarrh of the head violent headaches, closing of the nasal passages by haid lumps, buzzing, roaring and clicking soupds In ttie ears, sote throat and husky voice, poor appetite, loath ing dlstasto for eating, uyspepsia, sleepless ness, etc "But the catarrh extended into the bron chial tubes and the lungs.
