BOTSFORD'S NEW STATION.

The traveller who passed through Bots fork six months ago, would hardly rec ognize it to-day as the same place. The new station building has been completed. which by the way is one of the neatest on the line of the Berkshire division. The dimensions of the new passenger station are 24X65 feet. The exterior of the building is painted an olive color with dark trimmings. One of the best features of the new station building is that the platforms are covered, which will be appreciated in time of storm. The interior of the station is very light and pleasant. In the center of the room is the ticket and telegraph office. An inside vestibule protects the door from the east side of the station. The station
 is furnished with running water, which comes from a spring. At the north end of the depot is the baggage room. North of the passenger station a freight house, 30X46. has just been completed, and south of the station building for the section men is going up. The station agent at Botsford is Lawrence Taylor, who succeeded A. B. Blakemen. The latter resigned in order to give the nec- essary time to his store business. MT Taylor began his duties on February f.. For two years he was night operator at Botsford, which position has been abol. ished. MT Taylor is a native of Berlin, N. Y., and is familiar with the details of railroad work. The new station facilities are all that Botsfordites could desire, and the Consolidated road is to be con- graduated on the improvement. It is in line with their progressive policy.

A KANSAS MANS EXPERIENCE.

Albert Favorite, of Arkansas City, han., wishes to give our readers the benefit of his experience with colds. He says: ''I contracted cold early last spring that settled on my lungs, and had hardly recovered from it when I caught another that hung on all summer and left me with a hacking cough which 1 thought I never would get rid of. I had used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy some IA years ago with much success, and concluded to try it again. When I had got through with one bottle my cough had left me, and have not suf- fered with cough or cold since. Ihave recommended it to others, and all speak we'll of it." soc bottles for sale by E.

The Time to Buy Spring
 Goods Draws Near!

And we would like to call your attention to our stock of furniture at HawIeyville. We have finely selected stock, no back num- bers in it and all fresh and new. We have a demand, and steadily growing one, tor fine goods and we keep them. We aim to get all the new and pretty designs as soon as they are out and one thing you can rest assured Of, you will find no old and out-of style pat terms in our stock. There is hardly a town or city in tie state that we have not shipped goods to during the past year, and if you have not seen our store and stock, your neighbors have and can tell you all about it, but we would like very much to have you see tor yourself, and we believe it will pay you to come and look us over before you buy, this spring Although we are away out in the bowling wilderness and all tangled up in the tall grass, sell furniture here. Our many advantages of location, excellent rail road facilities, small expenses and the volume Of business we have been doing the past year enable us to handle furniture on the very smallest possible commission and still make living profit. Now if we don't sell you the same grade of work at less than city prices down as possessing a vicious and selfish dis position. We have fine stock of goods and if you want pretty china closet, sideboard, bookcase, desk, or 8 fine chamber suit, you can't afford to pass Hawleyville by. It won't take long to come here, but if you are going anywhere from anywhere, on the railroad you will naturally have to pass through Haw- leyville. Stop of 8 train and look us over
 Now, come to look back and read what we have written, this whole article sounds very much, to a person ot our extremely modest demeanor like blowing ones own horn, and blowing 1t very violently, too; but the ques- tion arises, Who is going to do it ii we don't? We feel very kindly disposed toward our neighbors and would willingly lend our horn any day, but everybody seems to like his own the best, and then you can seldom find man borrowed horn without making discord You ask him to blow in "Yankee Doodle'' or "Hail Columbia" and when it comes out at the other end 10 to one it's "Liliuokolani's La ment' or "God Save the Queen, just as plain as notes can make it. They blow in straight, but they put sly base ball twist into the wind and we can't trust 'em. So,dear friends you must excuse us if we seem to be forever last1ngly blowing our own horn; but without any joking we would like very much to have you see our stock, after which, if you advise a small horn, we'll certainly get it. We are now headquarters in Western Connecticut Tor the New Home sewing machine. Don't you buy until you have seen us. You will be sorry if you do.
 Don't forget our reading room and free cot- ice while waiting tor trains.

Joseph V. Dory, of Warsaw, Ill.,, was troubled with rheumatism and tried a number of different remedies, but says none of them seemed to do him any good; but finally he got hold of one that speedily cured him.
