was undoubtedly bad case of la 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 it was satisfac-
tory IN its results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. It acted like magic and
the result was a speedy and permanent

was ready to start, and hundreds of
watches were held in readiness to re-
cord his attempt to make worlds
record.
Like flash the black stallion was
down to the wire, and, almost before the
spectators could realize it, was on his
way, making the fret turn, moving easily
and proudly. At the three-quarter pole
the runner Bonbonniere, ridden by Gal
braith, jumped in, but the Oregon PAGER
needed no prompter. He reeled off the
first mile in 2 :09 fat.
''Too fast; he'll not make it," was on
many tongues as the first mile was fin
ished. But his well-wishers breathed
easier when IA was called at the mile
