A Natural Result.

1t is very reasonable to suppose if the
foundation of structure was removed
that the building itself is bound to come
down. This same principle can be ap-
piled to disease. Take medicine into the
system that will remove the cause of
sickness, and illness will leave of itself.
Dyspepsia, indigestion, siclS.headache and
biliousness have their foundation in
stomach disorders. Remove this weak
ness and the other symptoms are no
more. There is one cure for this that all
druggists sell for Csc per box-it is Dr..
Gums Improved Liver Pills. They get
right at the beginning of these diseases
and make the cure by taking away the
cause. Sold by Stone & Mercer, drug

A TIMELY SUGGESTION.

This is the season of the year when
the prudent and careful housewife replen.
ishes her supply of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. It is certain to be needed be-
fore the winter is over, and results are
much more prompt and satisfactory when
it is kept at hard and given as soon as
the cold is contracted and before it has
become settled in the system, In almost
every instance severe cold may be
warded off by taking this remedy freely
as soon as the first indication of the cold
appears. There Is no danger in giving it
to children, for it contains no harmful
substance. 1t is pleasant to take-both
adults and children like it. Buy it and
you will get the best. 1t always cures.

NEW GERM FROM CUBA
CAUSES GRAVE ALARM
Experts at Jefferson Medical College
Make Examination of II.

i PHILADELPHIA, Sept. Study is
being made at Jefferson Medical College
of germs of new contagious disease
that is ravaging southern Cuba. The
work has been going on for some time
and has been guarded with the utmost
secrecy.
The disease in many of its symptoms
resembles bubonic plague. 1t is said to
be swift in its progress and deadly in its
eff cts.
The work at jefferson College is being
done in conjunction with that Of the
medical authorities OF the United States
and Cuban governments. The interest Of
the United States is explained by the fear
that the disease may spread to Porto
Rico and 10 the Southern States.
While il was admitted last night by
the physicians who have the work in
charge that the investigation is being
made, news of its details was refused
upon the ground that the work is OF a
confidential character and that report
must first be made to the two govern
nients.

.LLOYD'S GRAVE LOST,
TABLET MOVED TWICE
Shorthand Reporters Vainly Seek
TO Fix Memorial

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1.-Since the
tablet TO the memory Of Thomas Lloyd.
the father of American shorthand re-
porting, was placed recently in the an
cient cemetery adjoining St Augustine s
Catholic Church. in Fourth Street, near
Vine, by the members of the National
Shorthand Reporters Association. it
has been moved twice in a vain effort
TO Ak it over Lloyds grave.
No one can tell definitely where the
last resting place OF Lloyd is, and here
is no certainty that the stone is bow
anywhere nearer the grave than it was
at first
When the association set about to find
Lloyds grave the records Of the church
yard contained nothing to assist them.
At first the tablet was reared near the
grave OF H. B. Theodulle, who died in
1927. as 1t was thought that Lloyd 3
tomb was not far away
Later researches determined the com
mittee in charge Of the memorial to
transfer the tablet to another spot.
Then a second change was decided
upon Now the tablet stands few
feet from a slab to the memory CT
Thomas Martin. There it probably will
remain.
