HEALTH HINTS.
SOME SUGGESTIONS REGARDING TIE
TREATMENT OF AND


SOME SUGGESTIONS REGARDING TIE
TREATMENT OF COUGHS, AND
COLDS, WORTH REMEMBERING.
A cough is usually the symptom OF
some disease, the character or the
cough denotes the nature OF the disease.
A cough should never be suppressed
but the desease cured, then the cough
will stop of itself. The most common
disease that causes coughing, is a cold.
When a person takes cold, many OF the
air cells of the lungs become INSTRUCTED
with mucus, the coughing Is an
effort of nature to relieve the lungs and
that is the first and most important
thing to be done in treating a cold.
The lungs should be relieved and the
secretions opened. Which is the best ac-
conplished by giving Chamberlain $
Cough Remedy. 1t is the only prepare
ton i'm use that will cause the expulsion
of mucus from the air cells of the lungs.
1t also renders the mucus less tenacious
and easier to eXpectorate and opens the
sccretions, aiding nature in relieving the
lungs and freeing the system Of all NOR
bid matter aflectually curing the cold.
1t acts in perfect harmony with nature
and is the only preparation IN common
use that does. Natures way is to open
the sccretions, render the mucus less
tenacious and easier TO expectorate and
relieve the lungs and that is precisely
the effect of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. You ask: How do we know
that is natures way?" Because if your
system is strong enough to stand it
nature, will in time relieve it OF the
cold without the aid of any medicine
and that is just the way 1t goes about it,
but many IN iron constitution" has
been sevcrly racked by leaving nature
alone and unAided to do the work. No
one can afford to neglect a cold, as
catarrh and chronic bronchitis are
caused by neglected colds. When a per-
son has n cold the mucu membrane
lining the air passages OF the head,
throat and lungs is inilamed, the intlam-
nation however is acute" and can be
cured, if not cured but kept up by
the cold or by a succession OF colds
which ia a very IN occurrence, the
inflammation becomes chronic, and If
III the head, is known as catarrh; II IN
the wind pipe and branches of il eX-
tending 10 all parts of the lungs, il is
called chronic bronchitis. Neither cat.
arrh nor chronic bronchitis can be per-
mancntly cured, as when apparently
cured, a cold will bring them on
again and every succeeding cold will
aggravatc them. These are facts which
no observing person can deny. 1t is of
the utmost importance that every cold
be cured rs quickly a. possible after
the first symptoms appear and it has
been a~bundertly proven that there is
no medicine that will cure Il cold in
less time than ChamberIain's Cough
Remedy, besides it leaves the system in
rs HEALTHY a condition as it was before
the cold was contracted.

Once there was a Great Big Reservation

couldn't reach but one of them at a

went down to Congress to have the Bars

She was laboring under the impression

A otatalaor,n, from Woab;,

A late telegram from Washington says
The Indian affairs committee of the
senate has sent the Sioux bill lately in
troduced by Senator Jones to the secre-
tary Of the interior, with a request that
maps be made illustrating the proposed
allotment Of reservations to the various
bands of Sioux and Of the lands to be
thrown open to settlement, as proposed
by the bill. The Indian bureau authori-
ties here express a belief that the lack
OF a provision for securing the consent
OF the Indians may raise enemies for it
in and out of congress. $50 far as we
are concerned here" said a chief of
division in the Indian service, Eve
wcnld be glad to see hat plan carried
out. We are fast getting by the point
where VIZ consider the Indian as ,e-
longing to a separate nation. He 3 a

practically Of such low mental dey elop-
ment that his consent should not be
expected to anything. Under our
treaties, and especially those with the
Sioux, We are expected to get the con
sent of those Indians to anything that is
to be done for them. Our experience
with this allotment act the past six
months has shown we can never ac-
complish anything for the Indian if it is
left to his consent. A single ~malcontent
can delay to all eternity. If we are to
delay the Sioux opening until the
consent of all the Indians is secured you
will never see it done. DR.. Bland or
some other member Of the Indian
defense association could delay us for

tons and carry out our own plan of

Queer People.

This is the title of the latest, and by all
odds the most charming book for little
people we have ever seen. Its fables, OF
stories, are delightful, but the illustrations
are simply immense.
The author, Palmer Cox, is new star
in the juvenile armament. but lie shines
with unique brilliancy. His charming ia.
bles rival those of the world famed Esop,
and he far Outshinos that celebrated liter
airy comet by his inimitable illustrations.
He dresses up his birds, animals, insects,
giants, fairies. COLLINS, etc.. in grotesque
style and makes them reason, talk. dance
and cut up all sorts of the oldest pranks
imaginable, affording infinite delight, as
well as excellent instruction to the young.
The issue OF his book Queer People" has
brought perfect ovation of praise from
the brightest men in the land. For in
stance, Gen. Clinton b. Fisk says: 1T has
set my children wild with delight" and
Col. Russell II. Conwell, the famous lee
turer. says: Don't send me another sucn
a book. for l can't get my children to
bed"
The famous statesman, diplomat and
wit, Sunset Cox, says; THE Kweer Ka
pers are simply incompatible" while the
distinguished theologian, DR.. Howard
Crosby, SAYS: They have the fascination
that belongs to Esop and Uncle Remus. .
and the venerable poet, DR.. Oliver Wen
dell Holmes. writes II am sorry have
not q nursery full of little folks TO enjoy
its bright pictures and stories"
Esop's fables are enjoyed by old and
young and are quoted by the greatest ora
tors, and surely these equally charming
stories, so profusely and exquisitely illus
trated, will charm young and old for gen
erations to come.
The sale OF this book will surely bt
enormous. IL is published by the well
known house of Hubbard Brothers, Phila
delphia, Chicago and Kansas City, Il
whom any persons desiring an agency
should apply.
