“Some time ago my’ daughter
caught a severe cold. She com
plained of pains in her chest and
had a bad cough. I gave her
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
according to directions and in
two days she was well and able
to go to school. I have used this
remedy in myT family’ for the1
past seven years and have never j
known it to fail,” says James!
Prendergast, merchant, Annate'
Bay, Jamica, West India Islands.
The pains in the chest indicated
an approaching attack of pneu
monia, which in this instance
was undoubtedly warded off by
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.
It counteracts any tendency of a
cold toward pneumonia. ''Sold

effectual cure. Price, 50 cents.

We were pleased to have Mr.
Ru e Warner pay us a visit last
Saturday. He is O. K. and al
ways has something worthy of
anyones attention; at any rate he
did that day for the News man.
He also promised us he would
some day bring his dinner and
spend the day watching us run
off the News. This he need not
do as we always have at least one
biscuit to spai'e and he is cer
tainly welcome to that.
Our friend Dr. Patterson of Wi
ville paid the News a pleaeant vi
sit last Wednesday. He reports
plenty of practice. Dr. Patter
son is a tine physician and is a
man of whom any community
might well be proud. He enjoys
a very large px*actice. In fact his
practise embraces such a vast
teritory, that he is building a tel
ephone line from his office at Wi
ville to Tip, so he can be in com
munication with his patients
without so much unnecessary
riding.
On last Sunday, the following
named persons dined at the
pleasant home of Mrs. S. E. Hol
land: The Mrs. t’om Greer and
Cora Warner, the Misses Emma
Lee, Katie Hightower, Susie
Barnes of Cotton Plant, Lida
Wright and Katie Bishop;
Messrs. Everett Jordon, of Troy,
N. C., J. E. Atkinson, Jr., T. W.
Greer, Edgar Pritchett, Robert
Lee, Ed Wright, Taylor Wright,
Jake Bishop, Henry Burrows,
Rufe Warner and the News man.
It was a jolly party and when
the hour for dining came, every
one was on hand with Tom Greer
thrown in. If we were to take
time to name all the good things
to eat that bedecked that table,
we would have to order an extra
edition of the News. Suffice it
to say it was a feast worthy the
royalty of the White house. Bel
shazer’s Feast was not in it at all
compared with this. One of the
most laughable features of the
feast was Tom Greer. We were
just being served with our des
sert of ambrosia, when Tom in a
whisper called Miss Daisy Hol
land and said ‘‘What tis is it?”
She said‘‘Ambrosia, ” Tom said
“Haha. ” but knew no more than
he did before. We hope someone
will explain to him what it is. He
told us, it did not matter much
what it was “Ambush” or what
not, it was good just the same.
After the dinner was over Tom
asked her “What did you have
those flowers on the table for?”
She said, “Why that was celery. ”
Tom now wishes he had said noth
ing about it and we hope our
friends will say nothing about
this matter as Tom is more or less
backward in some of his ways.
The afternoon was most delight
fully spent in chatting and sing
ing. This dinner will be long re- j
’ membered by all.
