lHavana's Freedom From Smallpox.
The fact that H4vana, where smallpox

epidemic, has not had cast for year ant
a half cannot be too clearly grasped. II we
are behind Hayan it is simply because prac

careless, gave the anti-vaccination Ecranks
chance to proclaim that freedom from small
pox had nothing to do with vaccination, ant
so led to indifference to the only preventive
with the regrettable result tLat we al

not by any mumbo- jumbo, but simply b.

A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a
remarkable record. 1t has been In use
for over thirty years, during which time
many million bottles have been sold
and used. 1t has long been the STAN
dard and main reliancein the treatment
of Group in thousands of homes, yet
been reported to the manufacturers in
which it failed to effect a cure. When
given as soon as the child becomes
hoarse or even as soon as the croupy
cough appears, it will prevent the at
tack. 1t is pleasant to take, many
children like it. 1t contains no opium
or other harmful substance and may be
given as confidently to a baby as to an
adult. For sale by Cohen Bros, Wild

Opportunity to Secure Employment

The Philadelphia North American
maintains a Free Employment Bureau
at 1909 Filbert street, Philadelphia, to
assist all those who seek situations, OF
employers who are looking for help.
AT the present time there is a dearth OF
servant girls in Philadelphia, and many
applicants for servants, through neces-
sity, are disappointed. There is a great
demand for first-class German, Swedish
and American girls for domestic work.
If the young women IN the communi-
ties throughout the state who are de-
sirous of securing positions in Philadel-
phia will communicate with The North
American Free Employment Bureau it
will obtain places for them without
charge. Positions are daily being Sc
cured for both men and women, who
express themselves as being highly
pleased with the service.
The Bureau will be pleased to receive
applications of all young men and
women who contemplate positions in
Philadelphia and vicinity.
