Company which has been doing local
business here without franchise FOR
many wears. does not seem Inclined TO
mil no stakes and move, at the behest
n the city Council. This body, some
time since. ordered the Southern Bel

uany sent In an application for the same
Tbey however declined to submit to
the inposition of a maximum rate or 10
allow the Council TO have any voice In
the fixing of their charges. Thereupon,
the committee having the matter in hand
recommended that company be forbidden
10 do business in the city OF Noriolk.
The company has very large plant
here and connections with all surround
ING towns. and Il is not believed that II
viii either accede 10 the demand OF the
Counci or abandon its property with

coeding slowly In the matter put long
legal night seems TO be ahead

JUST
ONE THING

Is cured by DIR. Bells Pine
Tar Honey. 1t cures that every time.
That one thing is Inflammation of the
mucous membranes of the lungs,
bronchial tubes and throat, coughs,
colds, chest troubles, Group, catarrh of
the head or throat, cold in the head,
Ia grippe, asthma, bronchitis, whoop-
ing cough, sore throat, loss of voice or
hoarseness are all due to Inflammation
of the mucous membranes. DR.. Bells
Pine Tar Honey is quick, sure and
safe cure for this particular class of
complaints. 1t is not good for other
complaints. 1t is pleasant to take,
Children like it and will ask for it. It
is harmless. 1t is made from pine, tar
and honey. Old folks know that these
are good, harmless medicines. In DR..
Bells Pine Tar Honey they are COM
hined by new and scientific methods
with vegetable plants, giving them re-
markable medicinal value. DIR. Bells
Pine Tar Honey will not cure consump-
ton. 1t will ward it off in its incipiency
and give relief and comfort in its later
stages. There isn't another cough
remedy on the market that does not
claim to cure consumption. Such a
claim is ridiculous falsehood. Put
no dependence in remedies that need a
lie to sell them. DR.. Bells Pine Tar
Honey is put up in 25c., SOC. and 81
bottles. If the druggist does not keep
it, it will be sent upon receipt of price
by the E. E. Sutherland Medicine Co..
