1t is very hard to stand idly by and see
our dear ones suffer while awaiting the
arrival of the doctor. An Albany IN. W
dairyman called at drug store there for a
doctor to come and see his child, then
very sick with Group. Not finding the
doctor in, ne lett word Tor MIN to come at
once on his return. He also bought bot
tie of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some relief I'M
til the doctor should arrive. In few hours
he returned, saying the doctor need not
come as the child was much better. The
druggist, Mr.. Otto Scholz, says the family
has since recommended Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy to their neighbors and
friends until he has constant demand for
it from that part of the country. For sale

walks on several OF the principal streets OF
The city were sadly in need of repair lie
spoke particularly of the need of new
walk between the railroad aud Oak street
There had been many applications to
continue the sidewalk on the south side
of Main street up to the railroad, and the
aldermen might find it advisable to do
this. lie urged liberal appropriation
for sidewalks.
The highway appropriation was also
increased, and there was an intimation
that the rock crusher will be called into
service this year.
The sentiment of the board also seemed
liberal toward the schools of the city.

ended, and strangely enough, every one
