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

''When / had an attack of the grip
last winter the second one) j actually
cured myself with one bottle of Cham
beralin's Cough Remedy says Franz
W. Perry, editor of the Enterprise,
Shortsville, N. Y. ''This is the
honest truth | at times kept from
coughing myself to pieces by taking a
teaspoonful of this remedy. and wheD
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 | would go
to sleep perfectly free from cough
and its accompanying pains. To say
that the remedy acted as most agree
able surprise is putting it very mild
ly. l had no idea that it would or
could knock out the grip, simply be-
cause had never tried it for such a
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 by all

The FARMER learns that Mr..
John Swlnson, the well.known ar
tesian we'll driller of the parish,
has just put down another deep
we'll at Mr.. David Glover's Pecan
Grove farm, IN the Eighth Ward.
A two inch pipe was sunk $50 feet,
and a strong flow of fine water Oh.
tanned, yielding 40 gallons per
minute. There is no troa6le in
securing an abundance of pure
water for all purposes, by means
of these wells, anywhere in the
parish.
Recent entertainments IN the
Pavilion have served to emphasize
what we have frequently remarked,
and that is that Cov,ngton is badly
in need of a big Town Hall, on the
site of the one that was destroyed
BY FIRE. The town owns the ground,
which is centrally located, aud a
hall should be be built on it that
will seat at least 500 people.
