OLD BRIDGE BOROUGH
BILL DIES IN SENATE

The Old Bridge borough bill went
down to defeat in the senate Wednes-
day before a stubborn fight by Senator
Brown of Middlesex and Senator
Mackay, of Bergen county, who claim
ed that public sentiment in SayreVille
Borough and Madison townships were
against the bill because the making OF
q borough out of Old Bridge would
take part of the territory from their
communities.
The senator from this county made
a strong plea in behalf OF SayreVille
which was made a borough last year.
Assemblyman Appleby, Republican
from this county carried his bill
through the House on a strictly party
line, and expected to carry the
through the senate the same
way, having counted on thirteen Re
publican3 in favor of it.
When Senator Brown had completed
his fight against the bill it was found
that fourteen senators would not vote
and that -four were against the
and three for it.

Whooping cough is the mean
est" disease that childhood is
heir to. While rarely fatal in
itself, except to children under
two years of age. still it hangs on
SO long-the coughing paroxysms
are so violent, preventing proper
sleep and digestion-that when
the disease does disappear 1T
leaves the child weakened and
run down, In addition the
violent coughing racks and strains
the air passages and after re-
covery this irritation frequently
remains.
During this period of conval-
escence the child should be most
carefully watched until full
strength is restored and the air
passages regain their normal tone.
A prominent authority even goes
so far as to say-"There is more
criminal neglect in connection
with whooping cough than with
any other disease"
! While the disease is active,
Vick's VapoRub usually helps to
lessen the violence of the cough
ing, but it is during conval-
escence that Vicks is most val
liable.
Because Vicks acts locally by
stimulation thru the skin to
