reduction of the present letter postage to

favor in the comparison with the reduc-
ton of postage made in 1888 from 3 to 2
cents, which eventually resulted in an
increase instead of a reduction of receipts.
This reduction, if made, would put this
country ahead of Englaud's penny post
age, as the rate would then be equivalent
to half-penny postage

Don't neglect a tritling cough.
In its train comes disease and
death. Reds German Cough
and Kidney Cure will soon
relieve you of its troublesome
presence. The remedy is easily
obtained. If neglected it may
entail All endless amount of
suffering and perhaps shorten
your life for years. 1t has often
been remarked that a cold taken
in summer is much more diff
cult TO cure than one taken in
winter. In this climate a sud
den change from hot to cold,
brings colds and influenza in it's
train and an astonishing amount
of summer complaints. The
reason is that the perspiration
is checked and the stomach
is suddenly called upon to take
care of the etfete matter that
has been thrown off through the
skin. In all cases of this kind
take Reid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure. 1t stimulates the
digestion and enables the stom-
ach to perform the additional
duty imposed upon it without
any trouble. Its effect in all
these cures is marvellous. 1t
stimulates the system, builds
up the digestive organs so that
the chilled surface is restored
to its natural condition, and the
stomach is thus relieved of the
burden that has been put upon
it.

Mr.. Jackson is in Europe but his part
ner, Mr.. Lyman, had heard of the suit
and WAS prepared to express his opinion
upon the case. IF the suit is brought by
parties claiming to be related to Mr. Gre

given, the decision of the supreme court.
wherein it was decreed that a testator
may even disinherit his own children, Is
sufficient answer. Provided that Mr..
Crerar was of sound mind and memory at
the tine the will was made, he had power
to bequeath his property just where he
wished
