SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
Cured by One Bottle of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy.
"When I had nu attack of the grip
ast winter ( the second one ) 1 actually
cured myself with one bottle of Churn-
um-lain's Cough Remedy , " says Frank
W Perry , editor of the Enterprise ,
Shortsvillo , N. Y. . "This is the houest
mith. I at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking a teaspoouful
of this remedy , nud when the couching
speu wonia come on at uignt l woula
ako a dose and it seemed that in the
briefest interval the cough would pats
off and I would go to sleep perfectly
free from cough and its accompanying
pains. To say that the remedy acted as
a most agreeable surprise is putting it
very mildly. I had no idea that > t
would or could knock out the grip ,
simply because I had never tried it for
such a purpose , but it did , aud it seemed
with the second attack of coughing the
remedy caused it to not only bo of less
duration , but the pains were far less
severe , and I had not used the contents
of one bottle before Mr. Grip had bid
mo adieu. " For sale by the Kiown

brood of a half dozen helpless ohicks ,
scolded nnd worked nnd woiriod thitf
morning jurt in front of n restaurant iu
North Fifth street. Mired nearly up to
their necks in the sticky roadway ,
directly in the path of passing cabs , the
little family thought they saw their
finish and were nearly "up against it. "
A cloud of gloom came ever their tiny
minds ns they twisted nnd pulled aud
hauled in vain , tiying to free their
buried tors , and they very nearly des
paired for good. But the cab driver *
that came along pulled their heavy
horses enough to one side to pnvo the
holplfss birds from harm and finally the
tender touch of a woman's hand carried
them all safely homo nnd convinced
them completely that everything in
this world gets snnio kind of care from
fiomowhoro and they nil pooped about
it like jolly good follows.

They Imagined They Were Warm.
[ From Wednesday's Dally. ]
There are things , now and then , that
make it seem pretty clear that if people
could imagine they were happy , there
would never bo anything of trouble ,
after all ; aud instead of a cold , gloomy
spot whore existence is labor , it might
be converted , even on a day like this ,
into n cheerful sort of a resort where
life is good to have.
A little incident that has been going
on nt the Trocadero all day long puts
this idea strongly. With water in the
cellars nud furnace fires out , people
have been chilly. At this place , men
have boon dropping in to got warm.
They have gone up to a stove that
looked bright nud glowing , spread their
hands before it nnd given them a hearty
rub. A satisfied look comes ever the
faces as they got warm and when they
are thoroughly comfortable they got
cheerful and sociable. The joke of the
thing is that a candle burning mildly
inside the stove simply gives a look o
light , while there is no real heat , nt all
