AN EVANGELIST'S STORY.
"I suffered for years with a bronchial or
lung trouble and tried various remedies
but did not obtain permanent relief until
I commenced using One Minute Cough
Cure," wiites Rev. James Kirkman, evan
gelist of Belle Kiver. 111. "I have no hesi
tation in recommending it to all sufferers
from maladies of 4his kind." One Minute
Cough Cure affords immediate relief tor
coughs, colds and all kinds of throat and
lung troubles. For croup it is unequalled.
Absolutely safe. Very pleasant to take,
never fails and is leallv a favorite with
the children. They like it, Eugene A.

miles from the point where the majority
of the people want it. The petitions
are being circulated in Ridgely, and in
the towns of Eden and Golden Gate in
Brown county. The farmers and others
desiie a crossing, and it is for the public
good that there should be abridge con
structed, but. as the facts come to the

petition is the more desirable.—Fairfax

blown up. The water in the upper pipes
had frozen and wheu the steam generat
ed in the coils there was no escape and
the result was that the the thing was
badly wrecked, pieces of it being blown
through the basement windows. It was
fortunate that no one was in the base
ment at the time. Tlwre was considera
ble danger from fire but this was imme
diately looked after and when the fur
nace is repaired things will be in as good
shape as ever.

tensively in the raising of Cranberries,
