our dear ones suffer while awaiting the
arrival of the doctor. An Albany On.

for doctor to come and sec his ,hild.
then very sick with Group. Not finding
the doctor in, he left word for him TO
come at once on his return. He also
bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. which he hoped would give
some relief until the doctor should arrive
In few hours he returned, saying the
doctor need not come. as the child was
much better. The druggists. Mr. Otto
Scholz, says the family has since re-
commended Cham berla ms Cough
Remedy to their neighbors and friends
until he has a constant demand for it
from that part of the country. For sale

1t has been discovered that the bubonic
plague, as well as other contagious dis
eases, can be spread by rats and mice
transported in the holds of ships; and
the marine-hospital service of the United
States has given strict orders to ship
captains, dockmasters and Others to keep
careful watch for rats, dead or alive,
in the holds of vessels from all ports
wherein infectious diseases are prevalent.

New England with those in other parts OF the
United States.
In nreparing its statistical report, the in
terstate commerce ommissicn divides the
territory of the United states INTO certain
groups. where the conditions are supposed to
be substantially the same. Thus all New
England Is embraced in group !, while group
II inc udes Pennsylvania, New jersey,
Delaware and Maryland, and group 3, the
states of the middle West. The average rate
per ton per mile in group |, according to the
report of the commissioners for the year ISIS,
was Lie cents. while IN group it was .6l7
cents and In group 3, BIS.
A comparison with the remaining groups
in the United States shows that the freight
rate in New England was higher than that In
any other part of this whole country. TX now
we turn from New England as a whole 10 its
individual systems, we find that the rate on
the Boston & Maine during the same time
was AS cents per ton per mile, while That
upon the New Haven 4 Hartford was 81 and
that upon the Fitchburg sA, from which 1t
appears that It was the low rate upon the
Fitchburg which brought down the average
rate OF New England to anything like reas-
able level as compared with other rates.
We find, therefore, this astonishing fact,
that the rate upon your system and the rate
upon the New York, New Haven Hartford
system although we should expect them to be
rs low or lower than most rates in the United
paid by any other section of this country,
even where traffic is much less dense and the
cost of operation much greater in proportion
With these figures in mind. President
Clement deduces that il the Boston
& Maine gains control of the Fitch
burg. the hope of lower freight rates
in New England will be gone forever
for there is now no longer 70 )m in New
England for more than few branch
lines of railway to connect with existing
systems.
According to President Clement such a
monopoly will have disastrous .lect
upon the manufacturing Industries of
New England. as freight rates form a
large item of cost to the consumer, and
other things being equal the rate for
transportation will make all the
difference between success and failure To
manufacturers.

CLAIMS JUSTIFICATION.
Rev. Brown Failed to Appear But Wrote
10 tbs Investiga ting Committee.

Rev. A G.. @. Brown, of Peabody.
Kansas, formerly pastor of the Presby-
terian church at Kinbrae, who was
cited to appear before commission of
Mankato presbytery yesterday to an
swer charges of slandering members OF
his flock and officers of his church at
Kinbrae, did not appear but wrote a
letter to the commission in which he
claimed justification for whatever re-
marks he had made Members of the
commission consider the letter evasive.
Rev. Brown left Kinbrae three
months ago, and the church there has
been stirred up ever since. One of the
elders, whom the pastor had talked
about, demanded an investigation at
the hands of the presbytery and this
was granted and commission appoint
ed for the purpose. Rev, Brown failed
to appear before it to substantiate what
he was alleged to have said about the
elder, but wrote a letter in which he
attempted to justify himself. The
commission exonerated the elder and
then turned it's attention to the minis
ter. A second notice is to be sent to
Rev. Brown, asking him to appear be-
fore the commission. The commission
is adhering to the church law in the
matter.

Advertisement A Writing.

Referring to a change that had
taken place in the business in news
paper advertising the Philadelphia
Record says:
"a few years ago a great deal OF
ingenuity was wasted in foOling
people into reading advertisements.
The commonest plan was to devise
a newspaper article which, begin
ming with a thrilling story, ended
in fiat advertisement. Few peo-
pie, however, read beyond the point
where the advertisement proper
commenced. This method of OBJ
tanning readers soon fell into des-
uetude, and the ingenious advertis-
er now prints only the advertise
ment, but he makes the "ad" so
interesting that everybody wants
to read it"
The Record has really set forth
but a part of the real truth. The
advertiser is now looked upon as
the representative of the spirit of
progress and business PeOplesOon
learn when an advertiser seeks To
fill his establishment with would
be customers, only to send them
away disappointed on account of
misrepresentation, consequently
advertisers have quit buying news
paper space for the purpose of tell
ing fairy tales, but offer genuine
bargains, stated in terSe form and
arranged in the most artistic style
and arrangement possible To draw
the strict attention Of the reader.
In other words the advertiser shows
that the advertisement is published
not only in his interest only, but
for the benefit of every one who
may be in need of the articles or
lines advertised. \ shrewd mer-
chant soon learns that people read
advertisements Thcn Il pays than to
do So, and because, as Il rule, the
up-to-date advertiser means Just
what he says in his published an
nouncement.
