A STORM ON OUR COAST.
A Special Warning Sent Out by Chief
of the Weather Bureau.

There was a decided suggestion of
winter in the winds that whipped, Shrek
ing icily, around the corners yesterday
morning. Straw hats were few and far
between, but overcoats were frequent,
and they were by no means uncomforta-
BILE.
The skies were shrouded in lead-col-
ored clouds, but not until late in the af-
ternoon did any rain fall-then it was
nothing more than a light mist. These
clouds and rain-suggestions and biting
winds came from the Atlantic ocean,
where a storm had been raging all the
day, with heavy rains along the coast as
far north as Hatteras.
At 1927 O'Clock a special to the Wealth
err Bureau here from the chief of the
Weather Bureau at Washington said:
"Storm continues central to the south of
Hatteras; gales will be very severe Off
the middle Atlantic and south New Eng
land coast, though they may not be I'M
usually severe on the immediate coast"
Rain is predicted here this morning.
After that Mr.. Won Herman thinks the
weather will clear and get warmer.
"People need not think the winter has
come yet" he said yesterday. There will
be more warm weather yet, but it will
not last long at time. The backbone of
the summer is broken.
mo, | don't think the storm will do
much damage on the North Carolina
coast 1t is too far out at sea-"

ton.

THE TRUE REMEDY.

w. NJ. Repine, editor Tiskilwa. H.,
"Chief," says: "We won't keep house
without DIR. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Expert
mented with many others, but never got
the true remedy until we used DIR. Kings
New Discovery. No other remedy can
take it's place in our home, as in it we
have a certain and sure cure of Coughs,
Colds, Whooping Cough, etc" 1t is idle
to experiment with other remedies, even
if they are urged on you as just as good
as DIR. Kings New Discovery. They are
not as good, because this remedy has
record of cures and besides is guaranteed.
1t never fails to satisfy. Trial bottles
