10 The Editor OF the Dispatch:
WIN you kindly state in Sundays Issue
q your paper where and how the city OF
Newport News obtained it's name. and
o6ige. +. O. 9.
Two answers TO this question have been

Christopher Newport--ths News being
AIDED after the same spirit Of ALTERATION
which gave rise 10 the names "causey .
oaye' and PAGES Pains"--two other
settlements on James river.
Another view is that its name IL de-
hgned 70 commemorate two ether promi-
hent settlers-sir william Newcs and his
s'other, Captain Thomas Newce-who
were interested in settling Elizabeth City
.o9nty. In which the greater part OF

Coughs and colds need not
be endured; they can be
cured, and that quickly.
Many mixtures are tenn
porary in effect, but SCOTS
Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil
with Hypophosphitcs is a
permanent remedy.
The oil feeds the blood
and warns the body; the
hypophosphites tone up the
nerves; the glycerine soothcs
the inhamed throat and lungs.
The combination cures.
This may prevent serious
lung troubles.
