John P. Wall is Better.

Hon. John P. Wall of Putnam Hall,
candidate for State Senator, and whose
illness caused by slight stoke of paraly-
sis was reported in the News two weeks
ago, was in the city on Wednesday and
appeared as we'll as ever.
Mr. Wall stated that his trouble was
diagnosed as stated in the News, but that
he had not been forced TO take TO his
bed, and had been steadily improving,
though he was feeling anything but
we'll. He says he will go slow for a
time but expects to continue to improve
and go ahead with his canvas for a seat
in the senate,

Thinks Palatka improved.

"ThiS is the first time have been in
Palatka in more than year," said ]. A.
McCaSkill, the well-known orange
grower of Denver, on Tuesday, "and
can see many Improvements. The old
town has certainly taken a start and am
glad to see it. I'm going back home
with feeling of pride in my county
town"
Mr.. McCaSkell's testimony is that of
most every Putnam county citizen who
visits the city now.
The Court House, the bridge, the
many new private residences, the clean
paved streets and the many automobiles
speeding over them has given to Pa
latka a very different air than that of the
city of one year ago.

Good Cough Medicine for Chill
drem.

The season for coughs and colds is
now at hand and too much care cannot
be used to protect the children. A
child is much more likely to contract
diptheria or scarlet fever when he has
a cold The quicker you cure his cold
the less the risk. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the sole reliance of many
mothers, and few of those who have
tried it are willing to use any other.
Mrs F. F. Starcher, of Ripley, W. Va,
says II have never used anything
other than Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy for my children, and it has always
given good satisfaction" This remedy
contains no opium or other narcotic
and may be given as confidently to a
child as to an adult. For sale by Ack-

temporary track around the 300-foot
chasm and proceeded at once to obtain
a perpetual Injunction restraining any

work beneath railroad right-of.way.
The point Is a. a narrow pass which

diameter, when a cavern was opened
up 200 feet below, mine gravel was
poured like sand through al hour
