Bow 1t Became Popular

When people find an article much
superior to any thing of the kind they
have ever before used, they are almost
sure to tell their friends about it, and
especially if they know of some friends
needing such an article. Dealers also
soon learn the true value of their goods,
and when they have an article of I'M
usual merit they will almost invariably
mention the fact to their customers.
This accounts in a great measure for
the large sale of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. Here is an instance: w. l..
Needham, a prominent citizen and
business man of Orrsburg, Mo-, has
been selling ChambeTlain's Cough
Remedy for several years and recon-
mends it to his customers, because ia
his experience 1t has proved to be the
best for colds, Group and whooping
cough. He says it is the most popular
medicine that he handles, and gives
the best satifaction. Fifty cent bottles
for sale by all leading druggists.

The First Measure of Time.

1t was the moon and not the sun which
first suggested to mankind the circle of the
year as measure of time The sun exhib-
its no changes of appearance, and his light
obliterates all the landmarks of the sky. A
luminary which is the same yesterday, to-
day and tomorrow might give rise to con-
ceptions of perfection and eternity but be-
yond the alterations Of day and night it
could suggest to mems minds no abstract
measure of time But with our humble
satellite it is far otherwise The regularly
recurring phenomena of new moon and full
moon are too marked to escape the atten-
ton of the most obtuse and unrehecting of
savages.
The motion of the sun may be compared
to that of the minute hand of a clock,

hour hand, which registers the movements
of its companion, and resolves them into
twelve well defined periods.
