SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP
Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy.

''When had an attack of the grip last
winter 1.-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 teaspoonful of this remedy, and
when the coughing spell would come on
at night would take dose and it seemed
that in the briefest interval the cough
would pass off and I would go to sleep
perfectly free from cough and its accom-
panying pains. To say that the remedy
acted as a most agreeable surprise is put
ting it very mildly. had no idea that
it would or could knock out the grip,
simply because had never tried it for
such a purpose, but it did, and it seemed
with the second attack lof coughing the
remedy caused it to not only be of less
duration but the pains were far less sew
ere, and had not used the contents of
one bottle before Mr.. Grip had bid me
adieu." For sale by J. ]. Sherwin, drug

A Flying Hotel.

''The Golden State Limited" recently
placed in service between Chicago aud
California by the Rock Island System, is
beyond doubt the most practical train
ever constructed. Bath rooms, barber
shop. library dining service, electric
lights. electric fans-in fact every con-
trivance imaginable.
The Rock Island was the first line to
establish low excursion rates between
the cast and Colorado, and the officials
will not cease to expound every effort to
continue to increase the popularity of its
resorts. With this in view, it will not be
surprising to see in the very near future
such trains as the Colorado Flyer and
the "Rocky Mountain Limited" similarly
equipped.
One thing is certain, there is never
anything better than the Rock Island
Service, and its dining car system is in
comparable.
