We want mothers to know that GROUP
can be prevented. There is no question
about this, as it has been done in thousands
of cases, and you may depend upon it that
owing to the negligence of its parents
True Group never appears without due and
timely warning; few hours, or day OF
two before the attack, the child becomes
hoarse. This hoarseness is the first indica-
ton of Group, and is sure sign that Group
is to follow, unless promptly and properly
treated. The free use of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy as directed with each
bottle, under the heading, "To prevent
Group" will dispel all symptoms of the
disease. For sale by the z. c. NJ. 1. Drug

Vivid Writing.

A little descriptive piece entitled
"Over the Guns" from the Detroit
Free Press, of which we give a para
graph, reminds us that great ad-
vertisers, like H. H. Warner & Co.,
projectors of Warmers celebrated
Safe Cure, might get a hint from it.
Here is the paragraph:
"Shoot to the right or left, over
the guns or under them. Strike
where you will, but strike to de-
stroy. Now the hell surges down,
even to the windows of the old
farm-house-now back under the
apple trees and beyond them. Dead
men are under the ponderous
wheels of the guns, mad devils are
slashing and shooting across the
barrels. No one seems to know
friend OR foe. Shoot, slash, kill
and
"But the hell is dissolved. The
smoke is lifting, shrieks and screams
grow fainter, and twenty or thirty
living men pull the dead bodies
away from the guns. Three hun
dred dead and wounded on the
single acre. They tell of war and
glory. Look over this hell's half
acre and find the latter" And in
just as deadly a strife, though noise
less, are men falling at u right
and left to-day. Is it war? Yes,
war of the blood. Blood loaded
with poison through imperfect kid
ney action. And is there no power
to stop this awful slaughter? Yes,
Warmers Safe Cure, tried speci-
ic, a panaeea tina. has brought life
aud hope to hundreds of thousands
of dying men and women.
Be enlisted therefore, in the
great army ofliyingm men and women
who have been rescued from disease
and premature death, and be eter-
nally grateful that the means oflife
can so easily be yours.

Reading for Farmers.

fIptH the JtiitFSDu lItN lftputit 90
Members of the agricultural
wheel and the farmers alliance
can have no occasion in the future
for fighting the Democratic party
in this State. Nearly every de-
mand made by that organization
has been enacted into laws by the
Democratic Assembly of Missouri.
Grain gambling has been prohibit
ed, the formation and existence of
trusts forbidden, the corporations
will be required to bear q greater
share of taxation, discrimination
in freight rates and exhorbltant
charges have been prohibited.
The unfair method of handling
grain and grading the same was
made the subject of a very string
ent law. Here is a section Of the
act:
"Public warehouse men shall
not mix any grain of different
grades together, not select nor
mix different qualities of the same
grade for the purpose of storing or
delivering the same, nor shall they
deliver or attempt to deliver grain
Of one grade for grain of another
grade, nor in anyway tamper with
grain while in a public warehouse
in his or their possession or
custody, nor permit the same to be
done by others with the view or
result of profit to anyone; and in
no case shall grain of different
grades, either from the general
stock or from special bins, BIZ
mixed together while IN store OF
control of such public warehouse
men,"
With the single exception of the
mortgage law there is not a Legis,
latlve subject referred to in the
enumeration of either the wheel OF
the farmers alliance which has not
been the subject of a good law
Regarding mortgages, the Republi.
cans are entirely responsible for the
failure of this law.
In the light of such facts the
farmers organizations will have
no occasion in the future to oppose
the Democratic party and ifthey are
true to the principles they proclaim
they will gladly support the party
which has promptly met their com
| plants.

If it be true that men, in the
heydey of prosperity, should put
away something for the inevitable
day of rain, SO that in the last
years of life they will not be COM
PEELED to lean upon the eruteh OF
charity, or borrow the cane OF

men? How about the photographers,
the telephone shouters, the key
board clickers, the piano thump-
ers, the screams of "cash," and the
measures of dry goods? These
girls 1T not all going to find their
George, their Charles, their Albert
Edward. Far from it. There is
no beautiful provision of nature by
which old maids dry up and blow
away. On the contrary, the older

sity for their bread and butter
three times a day, not to mention

Good Names to Have.

Both James and John are good
names for a boy, yet James appears
to be a better surname than any
other for a candidate for President
OF the United States. We have had
as many as five Jameses in the pres
idential chair within the century
James Madison, James Monroe,
James K. Polk, James Buchanan
and James A. Garfield. Moreover,
the father of President James Mad
lsen was named James Madison and
the father of President James Bu-
chanan was named James Buchan-
an. But in the. case of James G.,
Blaine there has been a failure up
to this time. After the Jameses
the Johns have PANIED out next
best-John Adams, John @. Adams

Eating Candy on a Wager.


An artist named Victor, who
boards at the Delmonico, on the
West Side, made a wager with
landlord Douglass last evening that
he could eat a pound of candy in
less than an hour. An assorted
pound was accordingly furnished
and the artist began his task. In
twenty minutes, the candy was
gone and before the hour had pass.
ed the man was also about gone.
He became very sick and for a
time it was thought the services Of
a physician and a pump would be
required. The artist recovered de-
fore morning, however, and won
his wager. He said if he had
eaten the candy before filling up
on supper ne would have ex-
perienced no trouble. Mr.. Victor
also modsstly states that he hasn't
much of a teoth for candy.

VIEW OF IT.


To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, No., May 29.-There is
much talk of building a German
Lutheran Church at Mexico. /
don't see why they want to build a
German Lutheran Church at Mexi-
co. Why don't they build a Ger
man Evangelical Church like the
one at Progress? Then our minis
try could serve both churches at
very ear the same expense. L
don't see why they want to build a
German Lutheran Church just for
three or four. The Lutheran Con-
gregations belong to the Synod of
Missouri, and if they form an Or
ganization and build a church and
if ever the congregation should dis
agree with the Synod of Missouri
and step off, the Synod takes a
claim on the church and property;
and congregation and citizen would
have nothing to say over that prop
erty. The Evangelical cengrega-
tons belong tc the Synod of North
America. If they form an organiza-
ton and build a church, andifthey
ever should disagree and step off
the church and property would re-
main to the congregation and not
to the Synod; and if the German
citizens of Mexico will take no
more interest in it than what they
have been doing there will be no
church built at all. Mexico should
have had a German church long
ago. OBSERVER.

The Boulevard Improvement.

To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, No., May 29.-Myself
and many others who keep their
own horses are gratihed to learn
from the LEDGER that the Boule-
ward is to be improved SO that it
will be in a fit condition to drive
over. As it is now it is no better
than a county road, and there is no
pleasure in driving on it. The
land was donated for Boulevard
purposes and the unimproved half
mile should be fixed up also. Then
we would have a sur enough drive
one of the best in the State; a
driveway we would not be ashamed
to show our friends when they
come to Mexico to visit US. The
city streets are VIGOROUSLY bad for
driving, the macadam being hurt
ful to a horse and the many cross
ings ruinous to vehicles. We want
a good long driveway. We have
the land; let Ut improve it. 1t
will require only a small amount of
money to do this. Mr.. Editor, you
can put me down for as much as
any other one man for the extern
sion. These long summer even
lngs much pleasure a be derived
for a little outlay of money in the
matter spoken of. The city, I see,
has agreed to help fix the first half
mile. The county, it seems to me,
should aid in getting the other half
in proper shape. Let the work be
dene; if in no ether way, by SUBJ
scription. A. DRIVER.

his LUCK WAS BAD.
Contractor IN. e. Ashton Fails
TO Fleece the Merchants of
Mexico.

About the Doth of this month n
tall, smooth looking stronger reg
tstered AT the Ringo as M. Z.
Ashton, Great London Circus"
took one of the best rooms in the
house and announced his desire to
make contracts for feeding the &C
tors of the greatest show on earth.
Ashton closed the contracts with
Mr.. Edmsnston, the proprietor,
but excited the landlords sus-
picion by asking no reduction in
the rate. The advance contractor
then sailed out among the mer-
chants and after a day or two COM
pleted his arrangements and got
ready to leave for the next town,
saying the bill Car would be along
in a few days. Mr.. Edmonston, of
the Ringo, thought the man was
crooked and refused to take an Or
der on the circus for the amount of
the agents two days bill. Ashton
pleaded lack of handy funds with
such earnestness, however, that the
goodhearted landlord accepted the
order, believing at the time that he
would lose the money.
Ashton visited every meat mar
ket in the city, Offering to contract
if the dealers would allow him a
small commission. He finally
placed the contract with L. NJ.
Dowell, on Washington street.
He asked Mr.. Dowell for his com
mission, but that gentleman re-
fused to advance a cent, saying that
he used no such business methods.
Numerous other business men
were visited, and if they were
fooled into advancing money to the
contractor they are ashamed to
acknowledge it.
Ashton worked a dozen mer-
chants at Nevada on the Sd, saying
his show would be in that place on
the 25th. Of course the aggrega-
ton didn't turn up. His show
would reach here on June 3, he
said, but nothing has been heard
of the scamp or his circus since
his departure.

ing.
Standing or the west end of the
bridge the scene is a strange one.
On every hand the waters extend
out of sight and all familiar land
marks seem changed. A reporter
for the LEDGER stood in the driving
rain for twenty minutes, this morn
ing, and watched the men below
battle with the drift-wood. A queer
feature of the high water is an
ABUNDANCE OF SNAKES;
they are everywhere. Several lit
tie fellows were seen swimming to
land through the current. They
made wonderful progress and wrig-
gled oft in the grass and weeds as
soon as they reached the bank. A
number of the reptiles lay on the
rock foundation to the bridge, just
under the heavy timbers to which
the ties are fastened. When flung
off into water from the end of a
stick, they struggled a moment in
the current and then turned and
swan easily to land.
The Wabash bridge, which is a
heavy, covered structure, was
thought to be in danger this NORM
ing and a number of men and a pile
driver were sent down to brace it
up. Several carpenters, in inflated
rubber suits, foated serenely on
the turbid waters and with hammer
and wrench frightened and strength
ened the bridge materially. A few
venturesome, curious boys and men
visited the scene Of the high water
while the rain fell this morning,
and this afternoon many ladies and
children went down to the waters
edge.
The trains of last night and to-
day were all delayed by reason of
the heavy rain, but no serious dis
asters are reported.
AN UNPRECEDENTED RAINFALL.
The rainfall yesterday, last night
and to-day was larger than ever be-
fore reported in this section. The
gauge at Llewellyn's government
station indicated a fall of four and
nine-tenths inches up to noon.

The German Church.

To the Editor of the Ledger.
PROGRESS, Mo-, May 2S.-Re-
plying to a recent article in the
LEDGER, we must say that our
friend, Mr.. A. German, is not well
up in these church questions. We
know all about the expenses of
such an institution. The main
idea is, we want a church and we
want it i'll Mexico, because it is the
proper place for it. What good
would a church on Bean Creek be
to Mexico. 1t would not attract an
immigrant to the city? The
Germans wish to live close to the
church. If they do not get this
chance they will stay away from
here. Mexico should have a Ger
man Lutheran Church because she
will have somebody to 60 into
it. A good start has been made al
ready and success will follow.
