Last June Dick Crawford brought his 12-months-old child, suffering from infantile diarrhoea, to me. It had been weaned at i months old and had always been sickly. I gave it the usual treatment in such cases, but without benefit. The child kept growing thinner until it weighed but little more than when born, or perhaps ten pounds. I then started the father to giving Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.

Before one bottle of the 25-cent size had been used a marked improvement was seen, and its continued use cured the child. Its weakness and puny constitution disappeared and its father and my-, self believe the child's life was saved by this remedy. J. T. Marlow, M.

The entire stock in the store is much damaged and it is not possible yet to determine what the loss will be. Bob Trotter, a colored loafer and tramp, was arrested last evening and locked up.

They were given to understand by the railroad contractors that none but Italians need apply.

Cn the authority of Mr. Richard Bayley it may be stated that the Hollidaysburg foundry sale is a myth. The local Cambria Iron company officials are equally certain that they do not contemplate an early resumption of operations at the Gaysport furnace. No Hollidaysburg man aspires to the management of Logan Valley railway affairs. These midsummer fakes are sorrowful news, in that they create vain hopes and false expectations.

They did take the shawl from the young lady, but Mr. Mills recovered it after stopping his team.

Mr. Mills next day made information against the young men, John Sullivan, A. L. Reader and William Brown, for assault and malicious intent. It was some time before the men Jwere all arrested and their hearing was given Tuesday evening before justice A.

Smith. From the evidence it was plain that Brown was not concerned in the assault and he was promptly discharged by the justice. Reader and Sullivan were held in $300 bail for their appearance at court. At 4 o'clock yesterday morning fire was discovered in the store room of John B. Beam on Main street, in Northwood, some distance north from the Morrison Cass paper mill, which had apparently originated in the upper part of the building.

The building was a frame two stories, the upper being used as a carpenter shop, the lower as a store room. An effort was made to save the goods, but on account of the dense smoke ail that was gotten out was two barrels of syrup, two barrels of vinegar, taken from tbe cellar, and a few other articles of small value. The stock was valued at some $800 and the building, which was totally destroyed except the foundation walls, at $700. The W. F.

Hil-ler Insurance agency carried $450 in the Reading Fire Insurance company on the building, $600 in the Sun Insurance company, London, England, on the store goods and $150 on carpenter tools, etc. The residence of Mr. Beam, some forty feet away, was saved by the bucket brigade, and when the well was pumped dry recourse was had to the Bald Eagle creek, about 100 yards away. The origin of the fire is a mystery, but the sudden departure of most of the goods taken from the building is not so great a mystery. Buy your watches, clocks and jewelry from W.

Johnson, jyl7-tf Palace Shoe Store. The large majority of Blair county people know by experience of the past ten years that for cholera, dysentery, diarrhoea, cramps and all irritation and pains in the bowels so prevalent at this season of the year, nothing in the world equals Curtis's Carmelite Cordial. Single bottles guaranteed to cure any case; three doses, if taken in time, effects a cure; first dose brings marked relief. No prudent traveler thinks of undertaking a journey Involving changes of climate, die or water without having a bottle in the handy corner of their satchel. aving a bottle in the house is equivalent to owning a drug store.

WILL TAKE SECTIONS OUT OF MUD Broad Street When Completed Will Be a Popular Thoroughfare and Ninth Street Will Bise up from Its Sea of Mortar. WORK BEING POSHED RAPIDLY Despite the dull times there are still some improvements going on within the corporate limits of the city. One of thete is the paving of Broad street from the intersection of Margaret avenue, or rather a fe feet south of said intersection, and running along Broad to Twenty-seventh street.

The concrete for this paving hag already been put down the entire length of the street to be paved. The asphalt has been laid aa far as Twenty-third street and is being pushed forward as rapidly aa possible. When this street has been paved its length and new and substantial sidewalks the place of the misnomers known as boardwalks, it will be one of the most inviting in the city. Its width, its comparative quietness and its general attractiveness for private residences makes this one of the most desirable parts of the city. Within recent years this section of Altoona has been built up to an extent moat remarkable and now that this thoroughfare is to be paved it will add to its attractiveness a hundred fold.

It is to be regretted that the property owners along this street through Millville did not also petition to have the street improved by this asphalt paving. The engineering incident thereto would have been very little aa the grade is almost a perfectly level one. It only a question of time Tintn. Milivilla becomes a portion of the city. Its interest are our interests and a closer communion will be to the advantage of both.

The process of arranging Ninth street for the pavicg is proceeding rapidly. The concrete has been laid as far as Lexington avenue and the excavation for the other work has already been made as far as Sixteenth avenue. The paving of this street is one of the most important improvements yet undertaken in Altoona. No thoroughfare is more used and none was more in need of improvement. This street has been an eyesore every fall and spring, the nuisance in the summer being bridged over by the heat which dried up the mud, and in the winter by the Ice King putting a quietus to the trouble by freezing the mud solid.

Nevertheless in both instances the street was left full of pitfalls and teams had an extremely hard road to travel With the paving now under progress all this will be done away with and another substantial street will be added to the miles of paving within the corporate limits.

The George Washington. The name of the first engine ever used on the Pittsburgh division of the Pennsylvania was singularly enough, the "George Washington." This fact has been developed through a letter written by a veteran Altoona shopman to the headquarters of insylvania Railroad Veterans' asso ciation Pittsburgh. This HUle engine was a wood burner, with a diamond stack, and probably was as dignified, pompous and ridiculous looking as the John Bull. It would be capable of hauling only one of the heavy passenger cars in use nowadays. DO YOU WEAR PANTS? Nat To Do So Is Wrong.
