A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with a very severe cold that caused him
to be in most miserable condition. 1t
was undoubtedly bad case of Ia grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therein,
we concluded to make first trial of the
medicine. To say that 1t was satisfactory
in its results, is putting it very mildly,
indeed. It acted like magic and the
result was speedy and permanent cure.
We have DO hesitancy in recommending
this excellent Cough Remedy to anyone
afflicted with cough or cold in any

A uome-Grown Experience.

A man went into IN icehouse to cool of:
An abrupt and impetuous hired man closed
and locked the door and went away. The
next day was Sunday and the hired man did
not come back While the man who ycarncd
to cool off waited for the return OF the hired
man his object was accomplished in very
thorough manner. He cooled off. The
muiiled door gave back but echoes to his
blows, and his voice could find no place to
escape and sound the alarm. When he grew
tired OF walking and swinging his arms to
keep warm the chunks OF ice that were piled
around him did not offer tempting bed.
Hunger gnawed at his vitals and refused to
be satisfied with diet OF raw air. Darkness
settled down like six months Arctic night,
and the only sound which broke the pro.
found stiffness was the man who wanted to
cool of TRYING to swear. The hired man
opened the door on Monday morning.. and
the man who wanted to cool off crawled out
more dead than alive. When his tongue had
thawed out he began TO abuse the hired
man. "Fool!" rctorted the hired man.
Fool. you are lucky dog and do not know
it. Don't waste time in abusing me, your
benefactor, but go and write n book OF i'm.
pressions on Alaska" Then the man who
wanted to cool off saw that his fortune was
made.-Chicago Record.

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. l3.-The most
serious situation now confronting tho
people of Texas Is the almost complete
blockading Of travel, owing to the vel
low fever scare. Many trains on oil
the principal lines have been aban.
doned, and local lines have stopped
running entirely. Both divisions OF
the Houston & Texas Central and the
Southern Pacific have been tied up
most effcctually, not a single wheel
moving, save in the extreme
northern portion Of the state.
Every small town in the state Is
rapidly organizing shotgun quaran-
tines, so trains cannot stop except at
the big cities. The situation in the
entire state is highly panicky, and the
feeling is one Of growing alarm and
apprehension. Unless the situation Is
soon relieved, the entire southern and
central portion Of the state will be
practically without any railroad facili'
ties, as all trains will be stopped.

BROKE THE RECORD,
Nine Yellow Fever Deaths mt New Orleans

Nine Yellow Fever Deaths Mt New Orleans
In One Day.
New ORLEANS, Oct. 1+-Yesterday
was the record smasher in the number
of deaths in single day from yellow
fever since the sickness was first re-
ported in New Orleans. 1t is difficult
to find the cause, except in the fact
that concealment, neglect and rebel
lion against the authority Of the board
of health have made 1t difficult for the
physicians to give proper attention to
cases. At seven o'clock there had been
nine fatalities reported during the "a
hours. Heretofore the biggest number
of deaths in any one day has been six.
Reports from Mobile, Galveston and
other points indicate little change in
the situation.
