pleeaseIs G Punishmanr for Sin

The following advertisement, published
by prominent western patent medicine
house would indicate that they regard
disease as punishment for sin:
do you wish to know the quickest
way to cure severe cold2 We will tell
you. To cure cold quickly, it must DC
treated before the cold has become set
tied in the system. This can always be
done if you choose to, as nature in her
kindness to man gives timely warning
and plsinlY tells you in natures way,
that as punishment for some indiscre-
lion, you are to be afflicted with a cold
unless you choose to ward it off by
prompt action. The first symptoms of a
cold, in most cases, is a dry. loud cough
and sneezing. The cough is soon fol>
lowed by profuse watery expectoration
and the sneezing by profuse watery dis
charge from the nose. In severe cases
there is thin white coating on the
tongue. What to dor 1t is only neces-
sary to take Chsmberlain's Cough Rem
edy in double doses every hour. That
will greatly lessen the severity of the cold
and in most cases will effectusllY counter
act it, and cure what would have been a
severe cold within one or two days time.
Try it and be convinced" SO cent bot

A Bad General PRESUMPTION.

think it is not to be denied that the
rules by which testimony is admitted or
excluded, originating in the purpose of the
English courts to protect innocent persons
from prosecutions often malicious and &C
cusations often false, under laws frequent
ly unjust and arbitrary, do now sometimes
produce effects unfair to society and par
tial to the criminal class. Taken in con-
nection with the requirement of unani-
nous verdict from twelve jurors, selected
by process that carefully Sits out intel
ligence and competence, the result, in a
large proportion of cases, is the escape OF
the guilty at the cost and risk of the COM
munity. l am even tempted to go so far as
to say that in a large class of criminal
cases the presumption of innocence for the
accused is, if not wholly unfounded, at least
too obstinately maintained, and that the
rights of society are ignored or violated

Through experiments made by English
military authorities it has been found that
whenever the atmosphere is laden with
smoke or mist the power of an electric
light is greatly diminished by crossing the
beam Of light by that of another at GER
tain angle. At the point of intersection
the illuminated space is practically made a
screen. 1t is proposed to utilize this knowl-
edge, since the electric beam can thus be
madeto serve as a screen, back of which
TACTICAL operations might be conducted in
