HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.

Group is a terror to young mothers, and to
post them concerning the cause, hrst symp-
dren who are subject to it take cold very
easily and Group is almost sure to follow.
The first symptom is hoarseness; this is soon
followed by peculiar rough cough, which is
easily recognized and will never be forgotten
by one who has heard it The time to act is
when the child first becomes hoarse. If
Chamberlain Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will soon disappear
Even after the creupy cough has developed it
will prevent the attack. There is no danger
in giving this remedy, for it contains nothing
injurious. For sale by Joseph D. Zepp,

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
Business of the Country Practically Con
fined to Staple Lines.

New YORK, Aug. 24.-Bradstreet.
says: General trade throughout the
United States is practically confined to
staple lines. The volume of business is
no larger. Where orders have increased
i'll number they are smaller i'll size. In
almost all instances they are based on
near by requirements. The feature Of
the week is the increased difficulty in
making collections and the higher rates
for mercantile discounts. Credits are
being scanned move closely than hereto
fore and are granted less freely. Bust.
ness in South Carolina is retarded by
drought, and in Louisiana, Texas
Southern Arkansas and Mississippi pro-
longed drought has SO interfered with
business III some sections that it
amounts to a calamity. Some
Northwestern Lumber Mills
have shut down, owing to low prices
and difficulty in obtaining money, while

is not yet sufficient to start up ma
chinery.
More favorable trade advices are re-
ceived from Baltimore, where business
is satisfactory. owing to better South
ern purchases. based OIL the early cot
ton crop. Among Southern cities, At
lanta is conspicuous for reporting better
trade. At Chicago there is a more
hopeful feeling among dealers in dry
goods, clothing and shoes, in which
sales have increased. Southern and
Southwestern buyers have appeared in
St. Louis and are buying with material
freedom for fall wants. At st. Paul
there is a better demand for hardware
and drugs.

CHICAGO. Aug. 24.-The month OF
August Will be Il black one in the rec

There has hardly ever been a time
when therOads had SO little to do, both
in the passenger and freight depart
ments, as at present. The recent reduc-
tons in the grain rates between the
Missouri river and Chicago have about
destroyed all the profit there was in the
freight traffic and the passenger bust
ness amounts to practically nothing. In
many instances of late trains have been
run without enough passengers to pay
for the consumption Of coal in the en-
CINE. The worst of the situation is
that it
Looks Blacker in the Future
than at present. Freight rates espe
cially seem bound to suffer further de-
moralization before they are in better
condition. Some of the traffic officials
of the roads are growing reckless as tc
consequences, and say that they are
bound to have their share of the ton.

are apparently of small consequence to
many of them and all they need is the
sight of some small amount Of business
to start them cutting the tariffs with a
vengeance.
