GOOD WORDS FOR CHAMBER-
LAIN’S COUGH REMEDY.
People everywhere take pleasure in
testifying to the good qualities of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. Mrs.
Edward Phillips, of Barclay, Md,
writes: “I wish to tell you that I can
recommend Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. My little girl, Catherine,
who is two years old, has been taking
this remedy whenever she ‘has had a
cold since she was two months old.
About a month ago I contracted a
dreadful cold myeelf, but T took Cham-
berlain’s Cough Remedy and was soon
as well as ever.” This remedy is for
sale ut Miller's Drug Store. 8-1
Doesn’t Seem to Like the B. & O.
Auditors.
If some of the new traveling auditors
on the Baltimore & Ohio trains could
reduce their pomposity, the passengers
wouldn’t get hit so hard by “that tired
feeling.” But we mustn’t forget that
the t. a.’s are yet very “fresh” to: their
work, and more experience will make
them more perfunctory. The old con-
ductors must be grinning away up
their sleeves. too.—Rockwood Leader.
By the above we judge that Editor
Werner doesn’t like the auditors on B.
& O. trains. If they are any more
pompous than Conductor Bishop, one
of the ticket punchers of the Pittsburg
division, they are indeed to be despised.
Bishop’s pomposity is only exceeded by
his insolence, discourtesy fo passen-
gers and general boorishness. There
are men who would rather be mean
and boorish for nothing than to be
courteous and civil for a fine salary,
and it has long struck a good many
people that Conductor Bishop is one of
that stripe. However, a more gentle-
manly and courteous set of conductors
than those of the Pittsburg division
(Bishop alone excepted) would be hard
to find.
A little Kodol taken occasionally,
especially after eating, will relieve
stomach, belching and heartburn. J.
B. Jones, Newport, Tenn., writes: “I
am sure three one dollar bottles of your
Kodol positively cured me of dyspepsia,
and I can recommend it, as that- was
three years ago, and I hayen’t been
bothered since with it.” Kodol is guar-
anteed to give relief. Sold by E. H.

was an incessant talker, ‘why in the

you want to, instead of writing away
like a newspaper editor? How long
do you expect Iam going to sit here
with my mouth open?”

MY BEST FRIEND.
Alexander Benton, who lives on
Rural Route 1, Fort Edward, N. Y,,
says: “Dr. King’s New Discoyery is
my best earthly friend. Itcured me of
asthma six years ago. It has also per-
formed a wonderful cure of incipient
consumption for my son’s wife. The
first bottle ended the terrible cough,
and this accomplished, the other symp-
toms left one by one, until she was per-
fectly well. Dr. King’s New Discovery’s
power over coughs and colds is simply
marvelous.” No other remedy has
ever equaled it. Fully guaranteed by

A REMARKABLE DOCUMENT.
Lounsbury, Poor and Insane, Left
a Beautiful Will.
From the New York Times.
Justice Walter Lloyd Smith, who pre-
sides over the third department of the
Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court, brought with him to the dinner
of the New York University Law
School Alumni Association, Saturday
night, what he said was the most re-
markable document that ever came
into his possession. Others who read
the document, the last will and testa-
ment of Charles Lounsbury, who died
in the Cook County Asylum, at Dunn-
ing, I1l.,, were disposed to agree with
him. Here it is:
“I, Charles Lounsbury, being of sound
mind and disposing memory, do hereby
make and publish this, my last will
and testament, in order as justly as
may be to distribute my interest in the
world among succeeding men.
“That part of my interest which is
known in law and recognized in the
sheep-bound volumes as my property,
being inconsiderable and of no account,
I make no disposal.of in this my will.
“My right to live being but a life
estate, is not at my disposal, but, these
things excepted, all else in the world
I now proceed to devise and bequeath :
J. “Item: I give to good. fathers and
mothers, in trust for thejr childreg, all
good little words of praise and encour-
agement, and all quaint pet. names and
endearments, and I charge said parerits
to use them justly and generously. as
the needs of = their children. -may re-
quire. ;
“Item: I leave to children inclusi-
vely, but only for the term of their
childhood, all and every, the flowers of
the fields and the blossoms of the
woods, with the right to play among
them freely according to the customs
of children, warning them at the same
time against thistles and thorns. And
I devise tp children the banks of the
brooks, and-the-golden sands beneath
the waters thereof, and the odors of
the willows that dip: therein, and the
white clouds that float high over the
giant trees. And I leave the children
the long, long days to be merry in, in a
thousand ways, and the night and the
moon and the train of the Milky Way |
to wonder at, but subject, nevertheless,
to the rights hereinafter given to
lovers.
“Item: I devise to boys jointly all
the useful idle fields and commons
where ball may be played ; all pleasant
waters where one may swim ; all snow-
clad hills where one may coast, and all
streams and ponds where one may fish,
or where, when grim winter comes, one
may skate; to have and to hold the
same for the period of their boyhood.
And all meadows with the clover blos-
soms and butterflies thereof, the woods
and their appurtenances, the squirrels
and birds, and echoes of the strange
noises, and all distant places which
may be visited, together with the ad-
ventures there found. And I give to
said boys each his own place at the
fireside at night, with all pictures that
may be;seen in the burning wood, to
enjoy without let or hindrance and
without any incumbrance of care.
“Item: To lovers, I devise their
imaginary world, with whatever they
may need, as the stars of the sky, the
red roses by the wall, the bloom of the
hawthorn, the sweet strains of music
and aught else by which they may
desire to figure to each other the last-
ingness and beauty offtheir love.
“Item: To young men jointly I de-
vise and bequeath all boisterous, in-
spiring sports of rivalry, and I give to
them the disdain of weakness and un-
daunted confidence in their own
strength, though they are rude; I give
them the power to make lasting friend-
ships, and of possessing companions,
and to them exclusively I give all
merry songs and brave choruses, to
sing with lusty voices.
“Item: And to those who are no
longer children or youths or lovers I
leave memory, and I bequeath to them
the volumes of the poems of Burns and
Shakespeare and of other poets, if there
be others, to the end that they may |
live over the:-old days-again, freely and
fully, without tithe or diminution.
“Item: “Fo our loved ones with
snowy crowns.I bequeath.the happiness
of old age, the love and gratitude of
their children until they fall asleep.”

NO BOOZE ROUSE NEEDED.
The editor of the Carleton (Neb.)
Leader says several different fellows
were recently in that town with a view
to putting in a booze house, and adds:
“We hardly think we need one.”
Right you are, Editor Bryant. No
other town needs one, and we often
think of the good hotels Carleton had
when we lived there, back 1n the Eigh-
ties, and not one of them sold a drop
of booze. That time Carleton had two
very good hotels, and one that was
good at times and pretty tough at
others, owing to the boozing propensi-
ties of the proprietor. But either one
of the three was far better than the
average hotel in towns of the same
size here in the east, where the sale of
booze, discourtesy to guests, poor meals
and poor accommodations in general
seem to be the chief aims of many of
the proprietors.
A few years of liquor license im
Carleton, after many years without it,
seems to have soon convinced the ma-
jority of the people in that town that
the saloon is a public nuisance, and it
cannot be denied that the sale of liquor
in a town is a hurt to all other kinds of
business, except to that of the courts,
peace officers, billiard rooms and the
like. We know by experience what we
are talking about, for we have done
business for a number of years in anti-
saloon Carleton and in liquor-license
‘Salisbury.
If this town had no saloons, many
dollars would annually be spent with
the merchants and all others who are
engaged in a reputable business that
is now spent for. booze and billiards,
pale lager, Pilsener and poverty.
And much of the money so spent is
money that is due and owing to the
merchants, butchers, printers and
others. Itis no exaggeration to say
that enough money is spent over the
saloon counters of Salisbury, each
month, to keep every man, woman and
child in Salisbury in shoes for a whole
year.
Does the traffic pay? It brings lots
of money to the saloon-keepers, but in
the end it pays neither them nor their
progeny, as is painfully visible to all
who observe things as they go along.
‘Men opposed to the liquor traffic are
often patrons of it and form strong
friendships for some of the men who
dispense the ardent spirits, but no man
can defend the traffic and be honest
with himself or true to his conscience,
and no man ever attempted to do so
without knowing that he was lying.
Beneath these stones repose the bones

WONDERFUL ECZEMA CURE.
“Our little boy had eczema for five
years,” writes N. A. Adams, Henrietta,
Pa. “Two of our home doctors said the
case was hopeless, his lungs being af-
fected. We then employed other doec-
tors, but no benefit resulted. By
chance we read about Electric Bitters;
bought a bottle and soon noticed im-
provement. We continued this medi-
cine until several bottles were used,
when our boy was completely cured.”

Shuman, at Uniontown, on Thursday
of last week. It was used to inter the
remains-of Charles Edmonds, a negro
chef, who was known throughout this
section of the state, and who died on
Wednesday, April 17. Edmonds was
42 years old, arid in recent months had
weighed about 310 pounds. He was

Edison’s Courtship.
T. A. £dison’s courtship was charac-
teristic of the great inventor. The first
Mrs. Edison was, previous to her mar-
riage, a telegraph operator in his” em-
ploy. One day while standing behind
her, watehing-her at work, Edison, who
had long admired the young lady, was"
surprised-wiien she turned round and
| said, “Mr. Edison, T can always tell
when you are near me.” “How do you
| account for that?” returned Edison.
| “1 don’t know,” responded the young
| lady, “but it is a fact nevertheless.”
| Edison looked her fudl in the face and
said, “I’ve been thinking considerably
| about you of late, and if you are will-
| ing to marry me I would like to marry
you.” A month later they were mar-
ried, the union proving a very happy
one.—Ex.
“Where Was Bill.”
Bill Jones is a country storekeeper
| down in Louisiana, and last spring he
| went to New Orleans to purchase a
stock of goods. The goods were ship-
ped immediately, and reached home be-
| fore he did. When'the boxes of goods
were delivered at the store by the
! drayman, his wife happened to look at
| the largest; she uttered a loud cry,
| and called for a hammer. A neighbor,
| hearing the screams, rushed to her as-
| sistance, and asked what was the mat-
| ter. The wife, pale and faint, pointed
to an inscription on the box which read
| as follows: “Bill inside.”
