Typhoid fever is prevalent in
Pittsburg. The fever germs it is
said will live 156 days. Since these
germs travel in water, and the
water of the Ohio will move from
Pittsburg to Point Pleasant in about
three days, it should be unnecessary
to urge our people to filter and boil
their drinking water. No harm
will be done and serious danger
may be avoided.

Narrow Escape.
q bout 8 o'clock this morning,
Irene, the little nine. year-old daugh-
ter of Councilman John Shively,
was playing on the street in front
of her home on Ninth street.
A milk wagon was being driven
slowly by and the little girl chung
to the wagon for ride.
a heavy ice wagon was rapidly
approaching and the little girl let go
and fell on the pavement.
The ice wagon was SO close be-
hind the milk wagon that it was i'm
possible for them to stop and the lit
tie girl was run over by the horses,
but fortunately she was not struck
by the wagon.
Parties at once rushed to the res
cue of the little one and she was
found to be seriously, though not IA
tally injured.
DR.. Enslow was called, who found
her to be badly injured about the
limbs and body. He rendered the
necessary assistance and the little
girl will soon be able to be out again.
1t was very narrow escape from
death and shows that children
should be very careful about the
practice of hanging on behind
vehicles.-Huntington Advertiser,
29th.

In a recent letter to the manufactur-

Spectator, Rushford, N. Y, SAYS: at
may be pleasure to you to know the
high esteem in which Chamberlain's
medicines are held by the people OF
your own State where they must be best
known. An aunt of mine, who resides
at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit me a
few years since, and before leaving
home wrote me, asking if they were sold
here, stating if they were not she would
bring n quantity with her, as she did
not like to be without them" The med
icines referred to are Chamberlain
Cough Remedy, famous for its cure of
colds, Group; Chamberlain Pain Balm
for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the
side and chest, and Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for
bowel complaints. These medicines
have been in constant use in Iowa for
almost a quarter of a century. The
people have learned that they are arti-
cles of great worth and merit, and un-
equaled by any other. They are for
sale by Geo. NJ. Hooff, Druggist.

When person is loosing fest and

alarm. Nothing SO woI t,as a phys
ician. CoDsumptives W aid never
die if they could regain tneir usual
weight. In fact there would be no
consumption if there were no vast
ing of the system. The cause of
this loss of flesh is failure to prop

tenths of all our diseases date back
to some arrangement ofthe stomach.

good. The Cordial contains food

BRITISH BIMETALLIsM.
Big Change in Sentiment on
Silver LIS Claimed.

Silver LIS Claimed.
NEW YORK, March GA special dis
patch to the World from London saws:
Henry Chaplin, the president of the
board of agriculture in Lord Sails
bury's last cabinet, and more than
hkely to be in the next Conservative
ministry, was asked if the English BIZ
metallists think their cause has been
advanced by the action of parliament.
The fact that Mr.. Everett's motion
was carried unanimously" he an
swered, while motion to the same
effect was defeated by a majority of
SO last year, denotes a marked advance
in public opinion, and it is upon public
opinion in England that the solution
OF the problem will depend. The recent
action of the German and British gov
ernments amounts to an emphatic rec
ognitton of the grave evils which arise
from the present relations of the two
metals. Moreover, the house of COM
mons has expressed its serious appre-
hension at the growing character of
these evils.
In view of these considerations.
there can hardly be a doubt that the
possibility of the solution of the cur
rency problem has been advanced by
recent action of the German and Brit
ish parliaments.
DO you then look to an interna-
tional agreement on bimetallic
basis?'
1T depends, I believe" Mr.. Chaplin
said, ION the attitude of England.
There is a wide and probably well
founded impression that if England
were prepared to join in an agreement
for the free coinage of silver there
would be very little hesitation on the
part of other nations, but public opin-
ion in England, and especially in this
city, is not sufficiently advanced to
warrant such a proposal by the Brit
ish government at present. 1t is
steadily progressing, however, and its
position may materially alter at no
distant date. If other countries should
be willing to reopen their minis to the
free coinage of silver on the under
