PERHAPS you would not think so,
but very large proportion of diseases
in New York comes from carelessness
about catching sold." says DIR. Cyrus
Edison. cit is such simple thing and
so common that very few people, unless
1t is case of pneumonia, pay any at
tention to cold. New York is one of
the healthiest places on the Atlantic
coast, and yet there are a great many
cases of catarrh and consumption which
have their origin in this neglect of
the simplest precaution of every day
life. The most sensible advice is, when
you have one get rid OF it as soon as
possible. BY all means do not neglect
it." DR.. Edison does not tell you how to
cure cold but we will. Take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. 1t will relieve
the lungs, aid expectoration, open the
secretions and soon effect permanent
cure. 25 and so cent bottles for sale by

were overtaken by Sheriff Jobnson's posse
guided by blood bounds. A running fight
was kept up with The robbers retreaiing.

he fell behind and attempted to hide in the
brush. The bloodhounds nosed him out and
he was captured The wounded robber
gave bis name as Charles Rivers of Indian
apois, and still had $ll00, his share of the
Bloomf, Id Bank plunder. The sheriff with

d, there being now 34l Juoior Leagues

ability to present exact statistics suggest
TWO remarks First the lack of thorough or
gan,zston by presiding elders districts;
i" cond, the defective work on the part Of
many secretaries.
The general cabinet officers report from
their respe Give fields a continuance of
faithful, varied, ingenious AMI successful
work.
The report further says: cit is our con-
viction that we are holding too many con-
yentions. The act on of states in forming
| leagues is notable one. 1t means much,
one way or the other, to the life Of this gen.
eral district org anizatiou. Our leagues are
naming their chapters after favorite pas
tors, houored veterans and departed heads
Of the church. This is 4 feature in our
last years work. The ACCESSIBILITY of nam
ing leagues after living men is seriously
questioned"
The boys movement has hardly assumed
proportions sufficiently large to call for

the brigade or guards work has been

The experience of the gallant captain is

this great curer of disease, this Iestorer of
health and strength, DR.. Greene's Nervura

The weak, nervous and ailing should try
it on the strength of what everybody who
has used it says of its wonderful curative
powers. 1t will cure you.
Why waste time in trying uncertain and
untried remedies, when here is a physician
prescription, discovery made by the great

Capt. Geo. II. Dav. npcrt of Bernardston,

Capt. Geo. II. Dav. nport of BernardstoD,
Mass, is a most popular and widely known
man, especially in Grand Army circles. He
is Pension Agent and everybody knows
him. He is best known to the whole coun-
try through his discovery of ''Davenpor,'s
Silver Pomade," probably the best article
of its kind in the world.
Capt. Davenport is most entertaining
speaker, ard his relation of the following
incident will be interesting to everybody.
Il had been troubled severely for years
with heart disease, and the effects of mala-

so nervous and weak that was unable to

things for me.

THE PRINT CLOTH MARKET
Lends Encouragement. and Pressure Tor Com.
promise Exerted at Fall River.

FALL RIVER, Oct. 5.-Toni9ht the print
cloth market closed steady at 3 cents for GA
by CAS-. Developments the past few days
in this and Providence markets have given
much hope to the operatives and business
men not dire city connected with the man
segment of the mills. The sales of the
week amount to $4,000 pieces, or more
than any week of the past seven.
1t is reported from, Providence that sales
agg;egating $4,000 pieces were made.
These transactions mean that the print
cloth market is stripped almost bare OF
goods and the quotation, if it represents the
permanent value of the goods, would mean
profit to the mills of 10 to 20
pr cent. year. 1t is understood
IN brok rs circles the sales here were
principally spots and October deliveries
that the sales had been made on contracts
extending into January, 1895. 1t surface
cen lilions could be regarded as permanent
or likely to remain any reasonable length
Of time, there is little doubt the manufac-
tuIers would willingly open the mill gates,
Monday morning snd invite the operatives
to resume work under the old rate of
wages.
Nearly all the manufacturers who will
talk say they do not feel satisfied that the
present market will last long. IT work is
resumed and the demand falls off, the con-
ditisn of all concerned will be as bad as at
PRESENT Ia other words, they are not
quite ready TO take the usual business
chances of its falling off in demand and
necesSitating storage of goods, while the
general dry goods markets are in such an
IN ertain state.
Within the past few days great deal OF
pressure has been brought upon agents to
open the gates to such operatives as came
TO work re gardless Of what ac' on the spin
nsrs may take. When the increasing sales
OF goods was reported this pressure was
can i,ned to be put on, until tonight it has
taken the form Of general request through
the press and by business men that the
manufacturers make some move toward
IF .cting q compromise.
