I was seriously afllicted with n
cough for several years, and last fall
had a more severe cough than ever
before. I have used many remedies
without recieving much relief, and
being recommended to try a bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, by
a friend, who, knowing me to be a
poor widow, gave it to pie, I tried
it, and with the most gratifying
results. The first bottle relieved mo
very much and the second bottle has
absolutely cured me. I have not had
as good health for twenty years.

SCENE IN A PORTUGAL WINERY,
In the mountains, at the Quinto do Sexio, Portugal, a famous Portt'
Wine district where the custom of treading the gTapesfor Port Wine t
is still in vog;ae. From ten to a dosen men or women for each gang ;
in turn continue the treading, day and niyht, during the four or fiv
weeks vintage. Some of the treading vats are large enough for three
separate rows of tea men each, who with their white breeches well
tucked up, their arras on each other's shoulders, raise and tread theit
feet alternately, with song and shouts to keep the lazier ones up to the
work, and a band with string instruments enlivens the hours.
Spccr, of New fcrscy, Uses Rollers insUad ot Feet
It is from this district the vines were imported over forty years age
that now fill the vineyards of the Spccr Wine Co., at Passaic.
At Passaic the same kind of grapes are crushed between large rol
lers of rubber, revolved by steam. This is the only place in
this country where the real genuine Port Wine is made from the
Oporto grape and they are grown right in Sieer's Vineyards.
These vineyards extend over , of a mile along one of t he Mair
avenues of Passaic, and comprise fifty six acres. The soil bcint;
rich in iron makes the wine most valuable for Medical use
