Proper treatment Of Pneumonia

Pneumonia Is too dangerous Z dis.
ease for any one to attempt to doctor
himself, although he may have the
proper remdies at hand. A physician
should always be called. II should
be borne in mind, however. that pneu-
monla always results from Z cold or
from an attack OF the grip, And By
the proper treatment Of these dis
eases d threatened attack Of pneu.
monia may be warded on. There 10
no question whatever about this. ~
during the thirty years and more that
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
been used, we have yet to learn OF q
lsingle case Of cold or attack OF tho
grip having resulted In pneumonia
when this remedy was used. II IL

Weehawken Athletic Club
Insists That It's Adver-
tised Programme Will
Go Through At
Schuetzen Park.
HILL XGHTIHG BE PERMITTED 2
Prosecutor speer Threatens a
Raid and Sheriff zeller
Will Be on Hand to
Enforce the Law.

The present Indications are that there
will be lively time at Schuetzen Park,
North Bergen, tonight
The Weehawken Athletic Club, which
is said to be composed principally of
Manhattan sports, has advertised a
number of bouts between well-known
prize-fghters, some of them with nation
al regulations, to take place at the popu
lar resort, and it insists that the pro-
Igramme will go through. This means
that the township will be invaded by
sports and others who follow the knights
of the fstic arena from New York and
various parts of this county.
There has been considerable controver-
sy over the subject. The attempt to
run off such show in this county to-
night is looked upon as forerunner of an
attempt to permanently establishing it as
a place for the pulling off of prize fights.
Prosecutor Speer said this morning
that if the attempt is made to carry out
the advertised programme at Schuetzen
Park tonight he will personally raid it.
Sheriff Zeller said this morning that he
depends on the police of the township to
see that the law is obeyed, but that he
will be on hand, and if the police of the
township do not do their duty he will
take hand.
The programme announced for tonight
includes six-round bouts between Joe
Cans and Willie Fitzgerald Billy Ryan,
Of Boston. and Johnny Burdick, of New
York; Jack Lowery. of New York, and
Dick Anderson, of Hoboken; Gus Zeig-
Ter, of New York, and Jack Duffy, of
Newark A wrestling match between
George Bothner and George Fisher,
catch-as-catch-can, is also announced.
Chief of Police Sullivan, of the town.
ship, said yesterday there will be no
fights, and that many sports would be
disappointed. He said he would arrest
every one concerned, even the lessee of
the park, John Mole, should the promo
tors go ahead with their programme. In
case the programme is carried out, there
will be a representative of the Law and
Order League present for the purpose of
securing evidence against the fighters
and their hackers.
