wonders in chasing from her brow all clouds
of gloom.-To this we would d always
keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough REM

Mr.. D. P. Davis, a prominent liveryman
and merchant of Goshen, Va, has this to
say on the subject of rheumatism: Il take
pleasure in recommending Chamberlain's
Pain Balm for rheumatism, as | know from
personal experience that it will do all that
is claimed for it. A year ago this spring
my brother was laid up in bed with intiam-
matory rheumatism and suffered intensely.
The first application of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm eased the pain and the use OF n bot
tie completely cured him. For sale at john
sons Drug Store, PENIS Grove.

IF YOU HAVE A SICK CHILD THIS IS SURELY A MESSAGE OF HoPE.-This is the best of news for parents of weakly or sickly children. It is a fact that our people have heretofore not had the same opportunity for having their child1en who suffer from chronic or lingering com plaints treated and cared for by eminent specialists in children's diseases as do the residents of the great cities where such skilled physicians reside. In other words our people have been debarred from seek ing cure for their children by the great physicianss owing to the cost of travel to the large city and the high fees charged by such physicians.
 Here, therefore, is 8 chance for the cure of the children of our community which should not be lost. Dr. Greene of 35 West 14th St., New York City, who is beyond doubt the most successful special ist in curing diseases of children, offers to give free consultation by mail in all cases of children's complaints. Parents have the privilege of consulting Dr. Greene by letter, describing their child ren's diseases and he will, after carefully considering the symptoms, write a letter fully explaining the trouble, telling every thing about their complaint so plainly that you will understand exactly what ails your children. He will also give his ad- vice, founded upon his vast experience and wonderful success in treating such cases, as to just what to do to effect a cure. All this will cost you nothing and you can thus have consultation with the best known physician and acknowledged most successful specialist in the world without leaving home and at no expense whatever. The Doctor is the discoverer of that greatest of medicines, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy and has discovered many other most valuable remedies. Write to him now about your child, for this is chance Of cure which you may never have again.

Advices received from Havana say that Antonio Maceo in a recent attack on the trOcha inflicted terrible losses on the Spaniards, more than 1000 being killed and wounded. The attack was made at night and was carefully planned. The fighting was general along the line, but was fiercest near Artemisa, where An tonic Maceo led picked force of insur- gents against the Spanish column com manded by general Aralas. It is said many Spanish officers were killed and that General Aralas himself was slightly injured Later dispatches say Havana is in terror since the late decisive battle be- tween the Cuban and Spanish troops, when for the first time dynamite guns were used, ending in a complete victory for the Cubans, led by General Maceo in person. Havana has been hourly expecting Ma ceos hordes upon the city. Madrid is feverish over the news from the seat of war, and Weyler's course is evidently run. The Cubans are in control.

Wheelmen who wish to take their ma chimes with them on trains are pleased with the new schedule which went into effect October 1. When the ticket rate is under 75 cents the charge for transport ing a bicycle will be 10 cents. From this minimum rate the scale gradually as- cends. A ticket rate of $2 will carry bicycle charge of 25 cents, and a ticket rate of $5 bicycle charge of 60 cents and SO on. This is in force on all New England railways and the reduced rate was probably made to avoid the free car riage movement that is well under way in some states.
