Do Not Suppress a ough.

When you have cough do not try to
suppress it, but remove the cause. The
cough is only a symptom ofsome disease,
and the disease is what you should cure,
then tie cough will stop of itself The
most common cause OF coughing Is a
cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress
the cough, and preparations containing
chloroform, opium, etc, are used Tor
that purpose, but they do not cure the
cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on
the other hand does not suppress the
cough, but relieves it by removing from
The throat and lungs the mucus which
obstructed the breathing and allaying
the irritation and tickling in the throat.
1t also opens the secretions and efiec
tually and permanently cures the cold as
we'll as the cough. For sale by Gibson

Mr.. Cations Candidacy.

Hon. J. r. Cation, Of Alexandria,
member of the General Assembly and
candidate for the democratic nomination
for Lieutenant Governor, arrived 10 the
city Thursday night and was at Muir
phys Hotel. Mr.. Cation stated that be
was here on legal business to take depo-
sitions in suit in which he WIS counsel
and that his presence here was without
significance politically.
Asked as to the possible effect OF his
candidacy on that of Captain Joseph f.
Willard for the gubernatorial nomina-
ton. and The intimalion that his caDdi
dacy was calculated to injure the pros
poets of Captain Willard, Mr.. Cation
stated that he was standing purely upon
his own merits, that he was not running
at the request Of, or at the suggestion OF
wish of any one. nor in the interest OF
any candidate for the governorship He
reiterated with emphasis that he had
formed no combination Of any sort or
description with any aspirant for the
governorship, senatOrsbip or other place
on the ticket, and that he had no idea OF
forming any such combination. Mr.
Cation expressed himself as on the
frieudiest terms with both Captain Will
lard and Mr. Swanson.
Commenting upon the fact that both
he and Captain Willard live in the same
congressional district, Mr.. Cation said
that this fact might have had an import
ant bearing upon their mutual csndI-
dacies if the nomination were to be
made 10 convention, but that it had alb
solutely none upon the situation Ia
primary where all the candidates were
nominated ut one and the same time anti
by secret ballot. There was nothing to
hinder every man 10 the district from
voting for both Captain Willard and
himself, if they so desired, and there
could be no conflict between them. hr.
Cation stated that he was advised by
friends 10 the General Assembly to be-
come a candidate for the lieutenant GOV
ernorship, and had made up his mind to
do so and had announced to friends his
intention before he even knew that Mr.
Swanson would be an asplrant for The
nomination.
Mr.. Cation was especially emphatic in
DENYING that he had made or contem-
plated making any combination of any
sort with any candidate for the nomina
ton, either for the goveruorship or the
senatOrship -.
Thus far the only announced candi
date besides Mr.. Cation for the seconC
place on the ticket is Captain Charles L
Bland, OF Portsmouth, for years mem
Der of the General Assembly. Mr.. j
Aston CabeIl, of Richmond, a proml
nent member of the bar of this city, ha
been suggested as possible candidate
but has made no official announcement
of bis candidacy. 1t is said, however
that he is at least tentatively candl
date, and that he is sounding the sentl
ment of various sections Of the State
1t is known that he has been wrltinl
letters on the subject to bis friends II

The Strawberry Now King.

Strawberries are king in Sussex
County at present. Strawberries by
the car loads are being shipped daily,
and the scenes around the cars and
wagons as they drive up to sell to the
highest bidder beggars description.
The farmers fearing to run the risk of
shipping direct, sell at the station aud
go home with well filed pocket books,
to return next day and have them re-
plenlshed. The cropin Sussex County
this year is large and will bring thou
sands of dollars to the farmer, aud he
is truly taking advantage of it. Doubt
less the largest shipping station in
Sussex County at the present time is
Selbyville, a small station on the lower
division of the D. M. & V. Railroad.
From 90 to 30 carloads of berries are
shipped from that station daily. and
next week it is thought the number
will reach 90 cars daily. In anticipa-
tion of this increase the railroad COM
pany has put on a fast berry train
from that station exclusively. Buyers
from all the prominent cities of the
north are there and they buy the fruit
from the wagons as they arrive at the
| station. In some instances the dis
tance covered by shippers from that
station is 90 miles aud they are com
PEELED to drive all night in order to
reach the station in time to market the
fruit, feeding the teams along the road
side during the night.
