perhaps you would not think so, but
very large proportion of diseases in New
York comes from carelessness about catch
ing cold" says DIR. Syrus Edison. 1T is
such a simple thing and so common that
very few people, unless it is case of
pneumonia, pay any attention 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 con-
sumption 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," DIR. Edison does not tell you how to
cure a cold but we will. Take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t will relieve the
lungs, aid eXpectoraJion, open the secre-
tions and soon effect a permanent cure,

against the Mount Vernon Railway
Company, who had been engaged in
placing connection between their
tracks and those of he Midland Rail
way, at Wilkes aud Royal STREETS, pre-
sent no new features. So far there are
no indications of an amicable adjust
ment OF the matter. the property own
ers maintaining their objection to the
switch and the railroad company being
of the opinion that it will be no annoy
ance nor in any way deteriorate the
value of real estate in the neighbor-
hood. 1t is maintained that the char
ter under which the electric railway
was built did not provide for the trans
portation of freight in this city, and
that the attemmpt to form connec-
ton with the Midland tracks for the
purpose of carrying freight is viola
tion of the terms of the original charter
as granted by the Legislature to Messrs.
Henry Strauss, Isaac Eichberg, George
Fisher and others and which was turn
ed over to the Mount Vernon road.
Some suggested that the switch could
be constructed at the northeast corner
Of Royal and Wilkes streets by remov-
ing portion Of the wall at the entrance
to the tunnel, which plain, if adopted,
would inconvenience no one nor III
any way damage property in that
vicinity.
