Do Not Suppress a ough

When you have a cough d. 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 the cough will stop of itself. The
most common cause OF coughing is 8
cold. .Anodynes will promptly suppress
the cough, and preparations containing
chloroform, opium, etc, are used ioi
that purpose, but they do not cure the
cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on
the other baud does not suppress The
cough, but relieves it by removing from
the throat aud lungs the mucus which
obstructed the breathing and allayine
the irritation and tickling in the thro It.
II also opens the secretlons aud eiiec
tualIy and permanently cures the cold as
we'll as the cough. For sale by Gibson

ScIinnl Board.

The monthly meeting Of the City
School Board vas held last night, the
chairman, Capt. Bryant, presiding.
Several bills for supplies and repairs
we're ordered to he paid.
The committee on schoolbouses and
furniture reported that a number OF
minor repairs l., the building had been
made during he Pcs! month.
The Superintendent reported that The
schools had been reopened after the
holidays and were all in successful
operation.
The resignation Of Mr. T. j. Fannon,
as trustee fron the Fourth ward, was
received and accepted.
The application Of the principal OF
Lee School for new furniture, which had
been referred to the committee Oh school
houses and furniture, was returned
with the report that the new furnl-
ture asked for is desirable, but IN
the present state of the finances OF the
board inadvisable. The report was laid
over till the next meeting.
In reference to the resolution OF the
City Council asking to be informed as to
the additional amount OF money that
would be required to enable the schools
to continue for ten months, the finance
committee reported that about 81 900
would be necessary, but as the schools
did not open till the middle of Septem-
Der, ten months session would run
them till the middle of July, which
would be inexpedient. The committee
reported, however, that any additional
appropriation made by Council could be
used to extend the session till the last of
June and in making repairs to the school
buildings The report was adopted and
ordered to be communicated to the City
Council.

Judge ". T.. lflCOi iioS'Ni'b'
Proceedings we're CONTINUED yesterday
until today in the case against Lewis Nut
dock and the Hiawaths Social Club, oil
which Murdoch is an alleged bartender,
charging them with selling liquor without
license. Attorneys for the defense OF
fered demurrer, in which they claimed
that Lewis Murdoch, being employed in
the capacity as bartender Of the club, Is
not liable. The indictment against the
Hiawatha Social Club, the defense de-
clared to be unwarranted The organiza-
ton being a social club, the defense
claimed, was noisiorced to procure a
license. "'rhe Indictment" said Mr..
Burke, "does not allege a specific OIL
tense" In reply, Commonwealth s AT
torney Mackey described The club as a
fake organization, and claimed that liquor
was sold to any person, regardless OF
identity, on a regular retail scale. The
club, he claimed. was not legal, bona
fide organization, and that both the al
legged social club and Lewis Murdoch
we're guilty of unlawfully selling liquor
without license. The demurrer in the
Hiawatha Club was sustained and the
case dismissed. The demurrer filed in
the case OF Louis nurdotk was oyerruled
by Judge Nicol, who held that the in
dictment was good. Pleas were filed
and the case called for trial before the
ST. Asaph pool room case comes up. A
jury was empaueled and the case was in
progress when this report closed.
