SQUIRE SHIFFLFTTPRAISESIT
Because 1t Cured His Boys Cough In
A Hurry.
Bears Emulsion Puts the Body in
Shape to Resist Germs of
Consumption.

Squire Shiff1et, one of the most sue
cessful farmers and business men in
East Rockingham, writes:
Mr.. John D. Bear, Elkton, Va,
Dear Sir; Three years ago my little
grandchild had very bad cough and
cold, We gave her nearly everything
that was recommended for coughs, but
she appeared to be getting worse all the
time. My neighbor, f. E. Coffman,
told me of Bears Emulsion. | bought
a bottle and few doses began to make
such difference in the child that we
all felt greatly relieved as we had been
uneasy about the cough for some time.
The remedy not only broke up the cough
but toned up the system better than
anything | ever saw. | can recommend
1t to any one wanting something for
cough or general tonic.
adv. Yours respectfully.
P. P. Shiffiett.

GARRETT county womanhood, es-
pecially, will be under lasting obliga-
tons to Senator Speicher Tor two far
reaching laws he had passed at the
session of the State legislature which
closed its labors last week. The first
is the Countrywide local option bill.
What this drastic bill means to the men.
women and children of this county no
one can estimate. Next November the
citizens of the county will, by their
ballots, proclaim Garrett county among
the dry spots of this great Common
wealth, and the prayers of the noble
women, who for years patiently worked
and prayed for God and home in the
overthrow of liquor selling, are about to
be rewarded. The second, is the Gig
arctic bill. The enactment of this law
will meet the hearty approval of every
lover of boyhood. 1t provides that
any person who shall furnish to any
minor by gift or sale or otherwise any
cigarette or cigarette paper shall be
guilty of misdemeanor. 1t also pro-
vides that any minor being in possession
OF cigarette or cigarette paper and
being, by any police officer, constable,
truant officer, or teacher, asked where
and form whom such cigarette or Gig
arctic paper was obtained who
shall refuse to furnish such infor-
nation, shall be guilty of misdemeanor
shall be sentenced to pay a fine of
not less than S. nor more than $40. and
on failure to pay the fine and costs of
prosecution shall be sentenced to be
confined in the Jail of the county for a
period of not less than ten days nor
more than thirty days. This act goes
into effect at once. Many mother
will saw ICED bless Senator Speicher
for this law" Delegates Harvey and
Savage supported earnestly this bill.
By the passage of these bills Senator
Speicher has more than fulfilled his
election pledges.
