whose headquarters arealocated
IN Roanoke. had become the
property Of Che Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad. A reporter Of
The Times called at the Office
of the Clinchheld Corporation
and asked if any information
could be given relative to the
matter He was informed that
no news of any such change in
the ownership had been learned
at the Roanoke Offices. and that
so far as they knew the situa-
ton with respect 90 the com
pany remained absolutely un-
changed.
A letter written by President
stevens, of the Chesapeake and
Ohio, led to the conclusion that
the Carolina, Clinchdeld and
Ohio is c. & O. enterprise.

AS GOES NEW YORK.

"Ihere have been all told
twenty-nin elections for Presi-
dent since the foundation Of this
republic, in which New York
took part, and every case but
four New York has been on the
winning side.
"ln 1889 New York did not
vote. I'm 1912 New York voted
for "a favorite son. De Witt Clin-
ton. and therefore may fairly
be said not TO have made the
f'Shton purely political grounds.
I'm 1886 New York cast it's vote
for John &. Fremont. and in
1865 for Horatio Seymour. In
these two instances alone out
of twenty nine elections did
New York fail TO guage and go
with the popular majority. IL
Is true that New York support
ed rilden in 1876. and HAYS
was seated. But Tilden had
the admitted popular majority.
How remarkable is this
achievement on New York's
part viii appear better when
we recall that New York has
again and again reversed itself

though the election was held
by the Honse of Representatives.
At the next election. in 1928.
Adams, the Federalist. and
Jackson. the Democrat. 10th

changed its support to Jackson. /

In 1885, Adams. Federalist. /
and Van Buren,, Democrat. were 7

3uren won But in 1870 with /
he same candidates, New York

certain to effect a quick cure. Such a
medicine is Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. 1t has gained a world wide repu-
tation by its remarkable cures of this
most common ailment, and can always
be depended upon. Ii acts on natures
plan. relieves the lungs, aids expectora-
ton, opens the secretions and aids nature
in restoring the system to a healthy o n
dition: During the many years in which
it has been in general use we have yet
to learn of a single case of cold or at
tack of grip having resulted in pneumon-
ia when this remedy was used, which
shows c%onclusively that it is a certain
preventative to that dangerous disease.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy contains
no opium or other narcotic and may be

Sees Women O

Rev. Anna H. Shaw. president of the
National American Woman Suffrage
association, accompanied by Miss Laura
A. Gregg, a %well-known public speaker.
Miss Ray Costelloe and Miss Elinor Rem
dell, two enthusiastic and beautiful
young English s%uffragettes. was in Den
yer November 3rd. for the purpose of
seeing women vote at a national election.
The Denver Post sent the party from
polling place to polling place in a huge
automobile. and they witnessed, many
an interesting sight. At one place a
nervous man fidgeted uneasily in the
line of waiting voters, a ahead
of him courteously exchanged her place
for his. At another, a colored won an.
who could not read, asked for help in
making her ballot. There was no laugh
ing or chatting, no fiippant remark, but
the assistance was given gravely and in
good faith. At another polling place,
they saw the oldest woman voter in the
city, Mrs. Richard Sophris, aged 81,
walked proudly in with head erect and
give her name in a clear voice. In one
of the most fashionable precincts where
women comprise SIS per cent of the total
registration, n of the judges said.
THE women always turn in a heavy
vote here and we have no trouble trying
to get them to do it. They come early,
as a rule, and they have their own ideas
about what they are doing"
Governor-elect Shafroth of Colorado
has been a staunch woman suffraeist for
years, and the women rejoice at his
election, as they do in that of Judge
Lindsey, who ran on an independent
ticket and is said to have been elected
by the votes of women.

THIS ONE THING ! DO

The Apostle Paurs Famous Words
Adapted to Modern Thought. Spec

that Every Physician Can Be a Spec

Every Doctor Becoming One, but
There are Advantage which Can be
Derived Only by Special Practice.
The physician that treats both chronic
and acute diseases, making no special
study of one kind of ailments more than
another. cannot be as successful al the
doctor who makes a specially of a Ger

whole time and attention to the study
and practice of that specially. The

is too broad a field for one to become
proficient.
Medical science has advanced wonder
fully in the last fifteen years, as you all
know, which is largely due to central

The specialists are the physicians
that we must give credit for enlightening
the medical world. We cite, for in
