Hurrah for "old Garrett. I'm
der an act passed at the last session
of the legislature of this state, u
special school fund for Garrett
C unity has been appropriated, which
enables us to have seven months of
school, beginning this fall, each
year. Our able member of the
House of Delegates, of this place,
Hon. Il. IL. Bittinger, was mainly
instrumental in securing the pas
sage of the bill referred to; an honor
to Grantsville and well may we be
proud Of this achievment.- .-Grants-

The recent visitation of postoffices
by county seat postmasters, has re-
suited in thousands Of valuable sug-
gestions and recommendations,
which are now being considered in
all their details by the different
bureaus Of the department. This
more intimate familiarity with the
needs Of the service, will enable the
proper officers to decide many i'm
portant questions, such as the es-
tablishmcnt or discontinuancc Of
offices, the curtailmcnt or increase
of star route service, etc. The SER
5icc in many small offices has been
greatly improved by the personal
suggestion of the visiting official,
and wherever the experiment has
been tried, more intelligent and
more faithful work naturally follows.
Mr.. j. p. Blalse, an extensive
real estate dealer IN Des Moines,
Iowa, narrowly escaped one Of the
seyerest attacks of pneumonia while
in the northern part of that state
during recent blizzard, says the
Saturday Review. Mr.. Blaize had
occasion to drive several miles dur
ing the storm and was 50 thoroughly
chilled that he was unable TO get
warm, and inside OF an hour after
his return he was threatened with u
severe case OF pneumonia or lung
fever. Mr.. Blalze sent to the near
est drug store and got a bottle Of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, Of
which he had often heard, and took
a number of large doses. He says
the effect was wonderful and that
in a short time he was breathing
quite easily. He kept Oh taking
the medicine and the next day was
able to come to Des MoiDes. Mr..
Blaize regards his cure as simply
wonderful. 80 cent bottles for sale
