SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
Cured by one Bottle of Chnmberlain's COuRl
Remedy.

"When had an attack of the grip last
winter (the second one) | actually cured
myself with one bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy" says Frank w, Perry,
Editor of the Enterprise, ShOrtsville, N.
Y. "This is the honest truth. l at times
kept from coughing myself to pieces by
taking a teaspoonfnl of this remedy, and
when the coughing spell would come on
at night l would take dose and it would
pass off and | would go to sleep perfectly
free from cough end its accompanying
pains. To say that the remedy acted as a
most agreeable surprise is putting it
mildly. l had no idea that il would or
could knock cut the grip, simply because
had never tried it for such purpose,
but it did, and it seemed with the second
attack of coughing the remedy caused it
to not only be of less duration, but the
pains were far less severe, and had not
used the contents of one bottle before Mr..
Grip had bid me adieu." For sale 10y

word is like bad dollar, an object of
universal contempt.

Mr.. MYERS PLAN.
Proposes Terminal Arrange
ments With New Company.

At a meeting of the streets and walks
committee this afternoon. L. E. Myers
of the city railway proposed to the
city council would refuse to grant the
proposed Topeka Manhattan electric
line franchise to build in North To-
peka, the city railway would build al,
extension of its line to any point on the
city limits the new road might Gesig-
nate, and there connect with the new
line, allowing the new line to run its
cars over the city railway tracks to the
center of the city. and transfer its pan
sengers to any of the company-s con-
Meeting lines.
The city railway makes this PROPOSE
ton for the purpose of preventing the
new road from obtaining terminals in
Topeka. 1t will be advantageous in
some ways because it will enable pas
sengers to go wherever they please in
Topeka for Gne fare
Mr.. Myers stated that arrangements
could be made to sell the tickets of the
new line to any point, at the transfer
station of the city railway companST.
We make this offer to help the new
line" said Mr.. Myers. I'VE want all the
suburban lines we can get, and as a.
haven't the money to build this pr =
posed line ourselves, we are glad to have
somebody else build it,
1t is not known whether the new com
pany will accept the plan. The pro-
posed new franchise will be considered
at meeting of the committee to be
called next week.

The Post, of Berlin, in a long article
on American yellow journalism, SAYS
American papers of that kind do not
by any means represent the views of
the American press in general, but on
the contrary, the American journalists
as a rule are men of intelligence. dill
igence and honor, possessing great and
invariably correct political judgment.
The Post gees on to say that Prince
Henry Of Prussia, who had occasion to
meet representatives of the American
press at the Waldorf-Astoria dinner in
New York, was impressed deeply by
the intelligence and dignity of Ameri-
can representative journalists. and re-
peatedly he has given expression to
such views. Perhaps there is less dis
agreement in Berlin on what constitutes
a yellow" journal than there is over
here. In America some people call any
paper that prints all the news. yellow.
