Mrs. +. T.. Davis, OF San Migue,
Cal, says II am trying IN a meas
ure to repay the manufacturers OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for the
great good their remedy has done
me. For years was a constant suf-
ferer from weak lungs and bronchial
asthma. My rest at night was dis
turbed by hacking cough, SO that
felt miserable the greater part OF the
time. Many remedies recommended
by friends were tried. none OF which
proved suitable to my case. did not
experience any beneficial results until
] began taking Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. After two bottles OF
the large size have been used / am
pleased to state, my health is better
than It has been for years. The sore-
ness has left my lungs and chest and,
can breathe easily. 1t has done me
so much good that I want all who
are suffering from lung troubles, as
was to give 1t a trial" For sale by

silver men now suggest that the silver ques-

means. who came here recently from San
Francisco. shot and killed himself this
evening in a state room on the steamer
Norfolk, just before it left the city for
Norfolk. Va. He was the handler of the
output of sawmills. From passes in his
possession it appears that he had spent
some time in Norfolk during the past sum-
mer, also that he was a member Of the
Ukiah Chapter, Royal Arch Masons, Of
California. The suicides relatives are be-
lieved to reside in Michigan, as there was
evidence that he had on several occasions
sent the sum of 800 to Mrs. Hattie Collier,
of Fife Lake. in that State, and there was
also an identification check book with some
insurance company which was TO be noti-
fled in case any thing happened to him.
