Few Hours.

You will distinctly feel your cola
breaking and all the Grippe symp-
oms leaving after taking the very
lrst dose.
1t is a positive fact that Pape's
Cold Compound, taken every two
hours, until three consecutive doses
are taken. will end the Grippe and
break up the most severe cold, eth
er In the head, chest, back, stomach
or limbs.
1t promptly relieves the most mis-
cradle headache, dizziness, head and
nose stuffed up, feverishness, sneez-
ing, sore throat, running of the nose,
mucous catarrhal discharges sore
ness. stiffness and rheumatic
twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand
dollars and contains no quinine,
which we have conciusively demon
streted Is not effective In the treat
'ment of colds or grippe.
Take this harmless compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there Ia not other medicine, made
anywhere else III the world, which
will cure your cold or end grippe
misery as promptly and without any
other assistance o r bad after-effects
as a ascent package OF Pape's Cold

the world can supply.

WANT SIDINCS
FOR FAST LINE

- FFA Ill
New Brunswick. Dec. s.-It de-
yeloped at the meeting of the Board
.of Freeholders yesterday that the
Raritan Township committee had
granted to the Public Service Street
Railway Company the right TO Law
nYe sidings in that township. The
company at the meeting of the free
holders yesterday presented a petit
ZION requesting that the action OF
fhe committee be approved so that
Iney can so ahead with the ssidings.
The road is q county one and the
freeholders will have to ratify the
plan before the sidings can be In
stalled. No action was taken on
the petition of the company, as 1T
was referred to the road committee
OF the board of which Freeholder
andrew Ely is chairman.
( The application OF the company
brings up q question OF vast Inn
portanee. 1t was reported several
months ago that the company had a
movement on foot whereby It plan
ned to run It's cars from Trenton
direct TO Elizabeth It is thought
that the company wants the sidings
for the proposed line.
In order for the company to run
the direct line it. is necessary to
have the sidings. The large red
ears which at one time belonged to
the Trenton and New Brunswick
Fast line are said to be the cars
that will make the trip.
The petitions of the company were
not discussed at the Freeholders
meeting. They will come up for
discussion after the members Of the
committee go v g them. Just
when the board will take action on
them is not known
The following r the places in
Raritan Township where the COM
pany wants the sidings, and which
the township committee has APPROX
ed of:
Siding at Bound Brook and Perth
Ambop turnpike, east of the private
road to Pfeiffer estate. :
Siding at New Brunswick turn
pike, west Of the Miilbrook bridge.
Two unilaterial sidings at Wood
bridge venue.
One @u~nilaterial turnout at the
New Brunswick turnpike.

PROCTOR'S HAS
5 CLEVER ACTS

Five very clever vaudeville acts
and several reels OF unusually inter-
esting pictures were TO be e at
Proctor's today. and Judging from
the laughter and applause is a show
worth seeing.
The show opens with Phil Jean
Barnard. THE Southern Singer"
who has a different act from any
other single man ever seen here. He
has a remarkably soft. mellow voice
that is very pleasing and In telling
his southern stories ABOUT the old
darkies, and HIS original southern
songs, is heard to its best advantage.
His several recalls were well de-
served.
Next came Lorraine & Laurence,
man and woman, acrobats and equf-
librists. who do some very clever
balancing. They dress well and look
well. A good hand at the finish
showed their work was appreciated.
Josephine Rellis. q young lady
with a very beautiful voice and
charming personality. sang some OF
the latest songs, among which was
"You Can't Live without a GIRL
which made a real hit,
Evans b VtdocQ, black faced COM
edians. kept the house In an uproar
of laughter from the moment they
stepped on the stage. Their stun Ia
all original and their parodies were
a scream. They had no reason to
complain OF lack of appreciation.
The sketch. Trained In" with
Harvey & Leroy, Ia one OF the most
amusing seen here In some time.
The seem is laid In a log cabin in
Arizona, and a young society girl
who is stopping at a hotel In the
vicinity rushes into this cabin to ca
cape q rain storm. Two cowboys
who occupy the cabin think she IL
the new cook and her efforts to cook
their supper, at pistols point, kept
the house screaming with laughter.
The parts are well handled and too
much cannot be said IN praise OF
Miss Harvey's clever acting.

Watch your man constantly. At
first. if he is a quick man, it will
be hard to follow his every mo-
ton, but you will reach the point
where almost every muscular
movement betrays his intention.
Another thing you must learn
early is to Judge distances. Many
boxers, in the game for years,
have never learned the art, and
their blows often miss. When a
punch is started he sure the OPP
ponent Is In range and it will
land A wild swing throws you
off balance and fast opponent
will land stiff punch.

have seen many promising box
ers ruined by losing their temper,
swinging wildly and giving an oppo-
ncnt an opening for punch that
stretched them on the floor.
Position Is important. Stand with. the
left foot from eight to twenty inches in
front of the right, according to the length
of the legs. This gives chance for quick
foot work. Don't stretch the legs too much
or balance will be lost. tsys3
The left arm should be extended SO
the glove reaches on the point of the OPP
ponent's Jaw. Cover your ribs and stom-
ach with right hand and arm. The left is
your great asset, as 1t Is used continually
for short jabs and blocking. The left. is
used to wear down the other fellow, while
the right is for heavy punches.
Many boxers don't seem to know how
to double their fists and broken thumbs or
battered hands are the penalty. The fist,
closed properly, is a splendid weapon. The
fingers must fit snugIy over the middle
