Nature Cures, the Doctor Takes the
Fee

Fee
There is an old saying that "Na-
ture cures, the doctor takes the fee,"
but everyone knows you can help
Nature very much and thereby en-
able it to effect a cure in much less
time than is usually required. This
is particularly true of colds. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy relieves the
lungs, liquifes the tough mucus and
aids in its ex~pectoration, allays the
cough and aids Nature in restoring
the system to a healthy condition.

Will Discuss Gas Rates

The Chamber of Commerce
has called a meeting to discuss
the proposed raise in the gas
rates, for Lambertville, and it
will be held in the city COM
missioner's rooms this Friday
evening at 8 o'clock. The COM
missioners themselves have
taken no action, believing that
they had no jurisdiction, as the
city is not a gas user.
The Chamber of Commerce,
in issuing its call for the meet
ing, says:
"The City Commissioners
seem to have decided that they
are not interested in the subject,
and have left it up to the con-
sumers to decide what action
shall be taken. This meeting is
called for the purpose of giving
the consumer an opportunity to
take part if he desires. 1t is not
right to take it forgranted that
the Public Utility Commission
will grant everything that has
been asked of them; although,
of course, they are more likely
to do so if it seems to be decided
that the authorities make no
objection" .'-.'

WILL BE LARGEST BUILDING
Mammoth Structure for Government
Use Is Soon to Be Erected in
South Brooklyn.

What is probably the largest
building in the world, it is an
nounced by construction company
of New York, will be built in South
Brooklyn for the United States gov
eminent. Contracts have been
signed by the company and the war
department, calling for the expendi-
ture of approximately $40,0O0,0O0,
for a new supply base for overseas
transportation, to be erected.
The plans contemplate the cree
ton OF a building with 100000
square feet of fireproof floor space
under one roof. The building is to
be approximately 1000 feet square
and from eight to ten stories high,
lighted with one street and three
courts. In addition there are to be
three double-deck steel, concrete and
timber piers 1900 feet long and $50
feet wide, together with a hghterage
pier of 1850 feet by 20 feet, one
story high. About thirteen miles of
railroad track will be installed, and
hundreds of tractors and locomo-
tives will be utilized to serve this
supply base.

Liberty Loan Report

The amount subscribed with
first payments up to Wednesday
afternoon Oct. 9th, was $167,
600. This is just a little over
one third of the way to our goal
of $445,800. Every citizen must
make a sacrifice now, he must
give up something to go over
the top, as the boys are doing on
the other side.
A whole carefully planed SER
les of events have had to be
abandoned because of the In
fluenza Epidemic in the district
Mr.. Lee the chairman, had Sc
cured the following events: on
Monday a flying squadron of
autos to visit each town in the
district and carry out an i'm
promptu program of speeches
and songs in each; Tuesday to
flood the town with post cards
Wednesday an automobile par
ade; Thursday a harvest home
pageant given by the schools
Friday a high school parade
with corner stump speeches
Saturday a grand parade, and
Sunday an afternoon mass meet
ing in the Strand. This program
will be given at the first appor-
tunity if conditions permit.
In the meantime, will every
citizen please display on his
home the American Flag and
make all possible decoration of
bunting Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of this week.. Put up
every poster taken down on
house cleaning day and in every
possible way aid the loan.

Public Schools Closed

The Public Schools hav been
closed until further notice. The
Board of Health in consultation
with the board of Education de-
cided this was best as a matter
of precaution, although the re-
ported condition of the schools
was very good. There were COM
paratively few known cases
among the pupils and none of
the teachers were effected; but
some pupils were kept out on
account of sickness in the fam
lily and some others through
fear on the part of their parents
and altogether it was decided
best to close them for the pre-
sent. 1t is not known how long
they will continue closed, but it
is belived that they will con-
tinue closed next week as three
days will be taken up by Teach
ers Institute. 1t is hoped by the
time they reopen the fuel ques-
ton will be settled, as there is
now on hand only enough for
temporary purposes, but a
larger supply is promised and
it is hoped it will be received
within few days.

Improving Brunswick Road.

The work of improving the
Brunswick turnpike from its
intersection with South Frank
lin street to the city limits, be-
gun last week, is progressing
steadily. 1t is now in fairly
good condition the whole dis
lance, but additional filling will
be added in places, and a top
coating of gravel or cinders ad-
ed. Gravel will probably be
used from Swan street to the
city line, because it has been
offered, free, by Thomas r.
Hunt, whose lands lie just be-
yond the city limits, but the
section between Swan street
and the Swan Creek bridge can
be cinder covered easier.
The road was turpiked many
years ago, and much of the old
telford bottom stone have been
in evidence for a long time to
anoy traffic. They are now be-
ing broken off or dug out, as
happens to be easiest. The
roadway is being rolled each
day as fast as filled in so that
it will not annoy traffic.

Chairman Report Loan Tagging

Commenting on the way the
Loan is tagging behind the pace
expected of it at this period Of
the campaign, Chairman G. H.
Glnnicutt, of sub-district No. Z
covering the twelve Northern
counties of New Jersey, said to-
day; eve are not going to get
the Loan subscribed by think
ing it's easy. 1t is not easy. 1t is
going to be a big task to put the
Loan over and the sooner every
body realizes that the better. 1t
would be just as disastrous to
US as a nation, and favorable to
Germany, to let up one iota to
the Loan drive as it would be
to have our Government grant
the armistice Germany is asking
for on the fighting front. Let
ting up in the drive would be
equivalent to granting Germany
an armistice on this behalf OF
the battle front"
1--WE must all work our hard
est and the people must sub
scribe to their utmost to make
the Loan a success and show
| Germany we are in this war to ;
finish. The sooner we make he
understand this the quicker thu
war will be over"

MURDERS EDlFY RUSS MIND
Not Without Reason Has That coun.
try Been Known as the Land
Of Assassination.

Eichhorn and Dressler follow
Mirbach into the company of
Plehve, Stolypin, Rasputin and Car
Nicholas on the further shore Of
Russian despotism. "a cup to the
dead already; hurrah for the next
to die!" The habit of assassination
Is strong in Russia, according to a
writer in Boston Transcript. Le-
nine and Trotzky have been threat
ened. If the hand of the assassin
should strike them down, too, would
1t provoke reaction in their favor?
Not If there is any lesson to be
learned from Russian history in the
past. In other modern lands pub
lie sentiment recoils from assassina-
tons and from cruel executions. But
the Russian mind, like that of an
Gent Rome, is edited by them. If
the Russian people may be said to
rally to the support of anything,
it is to bold assassination. That
is something to stand byl They
sprang nobly to the support of the
assassination of Plehve with the rev.
olution of 19O5-until the car be-
gan his own assassinations. What
an impetus the murder of Rasputin
gave to the revolution of 1871
1t is even quite possible that the
assassination of Gar Nicholas is SO
widely approved by the Russian pub
lie mind as to stay the reaction
against the bolsheviki. Let us fer
vently hope not. But where will the
next blow strike? Will it bring just
such relief and joy to the Russian
soul as the thought of Rasputin
strangling under the ice of the Neva
brought?

Baptist Anniversary Postponed

Owing to the Spread of influ-
enza and the closing of the
churches by the board of health
the celebration of the fiftieth
Anniversary of the laying of the
Corner Stone of the First Bap-
fist Church has been indefinitely
postponed. The Anniversary
services had planned for Oct.
1870 inclusive. The programs
had been printed and wereready
for distribution. The congrega-
ton, however, before receiving
the notification of the action of
the board of health, voted to
postpone the anniversary. AS
soon as the quarantine is lifted
the matter will again be taken
up and the services held as
planned.

DREAM OF HAPPIER TIMES
Wounded Soldiers Almost Invariably
Are Thinking Of What They
VIII Do After the War.

Wounded soldiers invariably dream
of the things they would like to do
when they recover and return to
their places in civilian life.
"Aftcrward" is the password to
dreamland-it visions impossible
bits of brightness, it lets the mad
dest, most fantastic fancies live, 1t
gilds the commonplace with glory.
The dreams have queer neighbors.
BY the side of those who dream OF
crossing new seas and new countries
are those who desire only to hide
themselves away on familiar hill
side or seashore, or to lose themselves
again in the city of millions. Some
want to fly, to farm, to grow roses,
to start newspapers, to missionary
the Chinese, to chase whales, collect
butterflies, to roam, to sleep, to do
great things, to do nothing-water-
ing a back yard at twilight would
be the dream come true of many.
Odd and beautiful, ordinary and
extraordinary, pathetic and humor-
ous are the dreams of today. Many
are too precious to be voiced, others
I so airy that even the dreamers smile
at them while they hug them, but
each dream is something dear and
precious to the owner-a bright will
o'-the-wisp that shines beyond the
dark TODAY.

THROWING CHALK FOR LUCK.

In throwing piece of chalk after
his men for luck as they poured into
the enemy's trenches, the Irish colo
mel was but reviving a superstition
which dates back to the ancient days
Of Thrace, where the custom origi-
mated of marking lucky days with a
white stone and unlucky with a
black one, declares London Chron-
icle.
In its early youth Rome adopted
the custom, and although chalk, not
being indigenous, was chiefly known,
as its name, Creta, implies, as an
import from Crete, it was generally
used for the marking of lucky days.
According to Horace, the marking
was done with chalk for good and
coal for bad luck.
