Taking this into consideration, Mar
shall Mcguire recommended the pur-
chase Of two new bicycles and two
speedometors, which he would have
placed on the wheels so that bicycle
policemen might follow autos and as
certain at just what speed they are 60
ing. In this way he claims there is
cause for the policemen to make arrests
and swear to the fact that the autos are
going at an excess rate of speed.
The lone arrest made for speeding
during the year did not result in fning
of the alleged violator, because the off,
Ger could not veal to the speed at
which he had beer going.
In South Orange it is a usual hap
pening for the coppers to capture speed
violators, and some of them have been
fined as high as 800. The village police
head takes this into consideration, also.
when the Inc in the village amounted
to only a little more than three times

DEEP SEATED COUGH
CURED IN 5 HOURS
New Homemade Syrup.
(Cut This Quit
From Boston Press.

Progress in medical compounds never
ceases, and now II is stated by a proni-
nent medical man that any deep-seated
cough or cold on the lungs can be actually
cured in five hours by the clock. Opium
and morphine have been resorted TO in the
past, as relief measures. But now IL is
learned that the system must be treated TO
rid IL of Inflammation and congestion. A
tonic laxative cough syrup does the work
so quickly and thoroughly as to be almost
magical. What heretofore has taken weeks
to cure car be accomplished in hours. Get
this formula filed or mix it at home and
always keep Il on hand: One-half ounce
fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce COM
syrup white pine compound. Shake the
bottle and take twenty drops every half
hour for four hours. Then take one-half
to one tenspoonful three or four times a
day until the system Is purified and toned
up. Give children less according to age.
One filling will usually cure a whole fam
lily, as the dose is small.
