WASHINGTON. April 3,-Secretary Her
bert was in conference with the naval sub
committee OF the senate committee on APP
propriations today, and]ewent over the bill
with them, making, Various suggestions. He
recommended, among other things, that the
provision in the house bill for battleships
should be accepted, without material amend
ment, and especially the numbers fixed by
the house should not be reduced. The sub
committee expects to conclude its consld-
Grafton of the bill early next week, and it
is probable that the full COMMITTEES will
have the naval bill in the senate by the
time the Indian bill is disposed of. The
disposition on a part Of the majority of the

battleships as carried by the house bill.

How to Prevent Croup.

Some reading that will prove interest

guard against the disease.
Group is terror to young mothers
and to post them concerning the
cause, first symptoms and treatment
is the object of this item. The origin
of Group is common cold. Children
who are subject to it take cold very
easily and Group is almost sure to fol
low The first symptom is hoarsness;
this is soon followed by a peculiar
rough cough, which is easily recog-
nized and will never be forgotten by
one who has heard it. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hOarse. If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is freely given all tendency
to Group will soon disappear. Even
after the croupy cough has developed
it will prevent the attack There is
no danger in giving this remedy for
it contains nothing injurious For
