DO NOT SUPPRESS A COUGH.

When you have cough do not try to suppress it, but remove the cause. The cough is only a symptom of some disease, and the disease is what you should cure, then the cough will stop of itself. The most common cause of coughing is a cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress the cough, and prep arations containing chloroform, opium, etc, are used for that purpose, but they do not cure the cold. Chamber lain'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 ob- structed the breathing and allaying the irritation and tickling in the throat. It also opens the secretions and etfectually and permanently cures the cold as we'll as the cough. For sale by R. H. Beers & Co.,, Newtown; Taylor, Curtis & Co.,, Sandy Hook, W. N.

MATrEAwAN, N. Y., Sept. 1, 1902. Gentlemen:
 My case is so remarkable that I want to tel you all about it. I suffered from blad- der trouble for about 25 years, and had tried all the doctors about here, and also two specialists in New York, without get ting any help. Last August I bought bottle of Cal-cura Solvent, Dr. Kennedy's new medicine. l had not been able to work at my trade (boiler making) for some time, but after taking one Bottle of Cal-cura Sol- vent, began work and have been working ever since. Cal-cura Solvent has done more for me in 8 month than all the doctors did in 20 years, and I don't complain of the doctors. Yours truly,
 MARTIN FULLER. Write to the Cal-cura Company, Kennedy Row, Rondout, N. Y., for free sample bottle.
 Remember: Only one Dr. David Ken nedy ever lived in Rondout, City of Kings ton, N. Y., and be sure you get his neao and latest medicine, Cal-cura Solvent, sold only in $1.O0 bottles.

Broadview and Red Top are within about half
a mile OF each otner, the railroad track cutting
through a high sand bank and running over a
raised bed between Gales Ferry station and the
red flag that Is set up at the Harvard quarters.
Above this railroad is a high wooded blufr
which commands the river from half mile above
Yale's boathouse south to the bend at the navy
yard. a mile or so below the Crimson dock. This
for years has been the stamping ground of the

extensive view in all directions. Immediately in
