Do you wish to know the q1ickest way
to cure cold? We will tell you. To cure
cold quickly, it must be treated before
the cold has become settled in the system.
The first symptoms are dry, loud cough
and sneezing. The cough is soon followed
by watery expectOratiOn and the sneezing
by prOfuse watery discharge from the
nose. In severe cases there is a thin white
coating on the tongue. What to do? It is
only necessary to take Chamberlaiu's
Cough Remedy in double doses every hour
That will greatly lessen the severity of the
cold and in many cases will effectually
counteract it, and cure what would have
been a severe cod within one or two days
time. Try it and be convinced so cent

CITY IMPROVEMENT.
What OslGdI0OsG has Done During
the Year IS92-SOlid Develop
naent-4 Healthy GrOtUth.

Oskaloosa can boast of a greater
growth during the year 1892 than any
other city, size considered, in the state.
The growth has been of the better sort,
and it reaches all parts of the city, into
the business portion as we'll as into the
residence parts. New business houses
have been established and old ones en-
larged, and in every sense the year has
been one of advancement. In the busi-
ness portion of the city the building
boom has been marked, and four new
business blocks, containing in all six
store rooms, have been added to the list
of business places.
TWO CHURCHES
have been remOdeled and rebuilt, and
one new house of worship is rearing its
spire heavenward. A magnificent
PUBLIC SCHOOL BUILDING
stands as monument to the year Sen
terprise, and new round-house and
switching yard speak for the increase
III the railway business. Twelve blocks
of brick paving have been put in and
miles upon miles of permanent walks
i'll the way of brick and cement. A
large amount of grading and terracing
has been done, and the streets are in
better condition than ever before.
THE TIDE
of improvement set in with the early
spring and its ebb has not yet COM
menced. The are many Improvements
that will be started or completed with
in the month, and the prospects for the
coming year are indeed tlattering. AT
the present time there is in the course,
of erection another fine structure for
the business portion of the city, and
there are many residences over the city
nearing completion and others being
commenced. A hurried resume of the
years work for the city shows that
vast amount Of work has been done
and many thousands of dollars have
been added to the city's worth. The
year has been busy one for all classes
and here is what has been accomplished.
First taking the business part of the
