Narraeansett has this week been return
ing a bunch of Viewpoints recent visits. The
poloists when they ended their two weeks
stay here last Saturday advanced upon
Newport, so the seat of battle was merely
transferred a few miles across the bay.
where one with powerful glass could,
from hotel piazzas, make out the player
galloping over the field at Bateman's point.
OF course no such temptation could be
withstood, SO about the whole town moved
over each morning and then returned at
night.
Naturally the daily pilgrimages to and
from Newport left small chance for enter
tanning at home, and little was accom-
plshed here except by way of preparation
for next weeks horse show. which falls on
the Goth and 9th. being the last big public
affair of the season.
An incident of real importance was the
arrival this week of a congressional COM
mttee to inspect the breakwater and har-
Dor improvements at Point Judith. Mar
ragansett's greatest lack has always been
that of suitable anchorage. being one of
the most exposed spots on the Atlantic
coast. Folks here do not expect that much
will be done, but the need is SO great that
the smallest favors will be thankfully re-
ceived.
Another government visitation was that
of the United States revenue marines, who
put the life saving crews through their
PAGES. 1t was great fun for the crowd to
see the drills, including the capsizing of
boat and the recovery Of a supposed drown
ed man. besides the execution of the inter-
national code of signals.

Proper Treatment of pneumonia.

Pneumonia is too dangerous a dis ease for anyone to attempt to doctor himself. although he may have the proper remedies at hand. A physician should always be called. It should be borne in mind. however. that pneu- monia always results from a cold or from an attack of the grip, and by the proper treatment of these diseases threatened attack of pneumonia may be warded off. There is no question whatever about this, as during the thirty years and more that Chamber lain's Cough Remedy has been used, we have yet to learn of a single case of a cold or attack of the grip having re- suited in pneumonia when this remedy was used. It is also used by physicians in the treatment of pneumonia with the best results. Dr. w. J. Smith, of Sanders. Ala, who is also druggist, says of it: q have been selling Cham- berlain's Cough Remedy and prescrib- ing 1t in my practice for the past six years. l use it in cases of pneumonia and have always gotten the best re- suits" Sold by all druggists.

The Odd Request Made by Traveller
 at a Louisville Hotel.

"A room. please. with bath and with out bedclothes," said Harrison Grant Jackson as he walked into the office oi the Willard Hotel last night.
 q beg your pardon, sir. l don't quite understand" said Clerk Claude Brown.
 Well. my proposition is simple enough. Give ne q room with bath and without sheets or feather bed"
 Mir. Jackson is q tall. thin, antiquat- ed gentleman of many years. He looks strange. and is strange.
 The reason for his peculiar desires in the way of rooms and trappings is easily explained. In his own words. Mir. Jackson tells his story:
 Fourteen years ago I wrapped my self up in the dirty covers of a bed n little town in Tennessee. Tired and sleepy, I soon began to doze but my slumbers were doomed to be neither long nor peaceful. for presently heard something moving about in the feather bed on which I was sleeping. It was a mouse. In my anger I ripped open the whole bed stuff and found a whole bunch of mice.
 T had to stay in that town two weeks. I was distressed. and in my woe l went out and bought a feather bed. lot of sheets and pillows From that day to this I have carried those bedclothes with me. I carry big trunks. and in the bottom of one of these I tuck away my bedclothes when travelling. When I retire I know just what I am wrapping around me. Say. do you know that's a great luxury"-Louis- vile Herald.

 This novel" he said. 'is as poor and barren as Elmo county land"
 "Is Elmo county land very poor and barren?" asked one of MT. Cockran's interlocutors
 'Is it?" said he. We'll I should say it is. Once two strangers rode on horseback through Elmo county. and the barrenness of the land amazed them. Nothing but weeds and rocks everywhere. As they passed a farm house they saw an old man sitting in the garden. and they said
 Poor chap! Poor. poverty stricken old feliowl'
 The old man overheard them. and called out in shrill voice:
