P. E. Butler, of pack-train N. 8,
writing from Santiago, De Cubs, on July
%. says: "We all had darrhes in more
or less violent form, and when we landed
we bad no time to see doctor, for il
was case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and rations, but thanks TO
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rbel Remedy, we were able Co keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, Elm
cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour of
our army, for If the packers had been
unable to work there would have been
no way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in supply of
this medicine for our pack-train before
we left Tampa and know in four cases
it absolutely saved life."
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicine, the
Chamberlain Medicine Co., Des Moines,
Iowa. For sale by R. 81. Beers g Co..

Each owner of property on the highways
must cut the weeds and brushes along
the highway frontir their property"
If this law was more rigidly adhered to
their town would present different as.

and bushes on every road, and about
residences.
