Cady Her rick, the Democratic uoininee for gov- •ruor of New York state. As a matter of fact, Judge Herrick has no “first - ’ name, says the New York Journal. The letter “D" is there, and that's all. Judge Herrick was not named for Daniel Cady, the western New York Jurist, as has been supposed. The lat ter was the father of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and many persons have con eluded that Jonathan Herrick named his son Daniel Cady after the western New York man. That conclusion Is er roneous. ' Young Herrick was baptlaed Cady Herrick. That pleased his mother. It did not please his father. The latter thought that Cady might he softened by some one Into Katie, and the child was a big, bouncing boy. When that boy attained a few years Jonathan Herrick told him to write his name D. Cady Herrick, lie said to him: “The I > will only signify the letter of the alphabet for which It stands. If people choose to think that It stands for a name Instead of a letter they may. But as for you, write your name P. Cady Herrick, D to please me and Cady to please your mother. Then we’ll both be represented.” Train Was Standing Still at a Station Aside from Wrecking of the Engine, None of the Other Equipment Was Damaged.

It relieves the congested organs, allays the Irri tation, and effectively stops the cough. Any child will take it. It is invaluable in a household of children.
