From Benjamin Franklin.

"When you are sick, what you like best is to be chosen for q medi- cine in the first place; what exper- fence tells you is best, to be chosen in the second place; what reason ii. e., Fheory) says is best is to be chosen in the last place. But if you can get Dr. Inclination, Dr. Experi- ence and Dr Reason to hold con sultation together, they will give you the best advice that can be taken.
 When you have bad cold Dr. Inclination would reccon end Cham berlain's Cough Remedy because it is pleasant to tal Q. Dr. Experience would recommend it because itnever fails to effect a speedy and perman- ent cure, Dr. Reason would recom- mend 1t because it is prepared on scien tlfic principles, and acts OH na- ture's plan in relieving the lungs, opening she secretions and restoring the system to q natural and healthy condition.

STARVATION IN MADRID.
The Government Has Had 20 Intervene
Rescue Many from Death.

The Madrid correspondent Of The New
York sun says:
The distress I'm this city has become 50
terrible that the Guardians Of the Poor,
whose chairman is senior NSulueia, the
civil Governor OF Madrid. have been
obliged to intervene 20 rescue the poor
from death by actual starvation. Inc
Guardians distributed tickets TO 5000 or
the most needy of the uffere-s. cnuthng
them 20 a small parcel 0t bacon. beans,
potatoes and bread
The distribution took place to-day at
the Asylum of Santa Christina. Hours
before the time for the giving cur or the
provisions the streets leading To the asy-
mm were packed with crowds OF itmish-
ing people.
The police were entirely unable 20
manage the eagerly expectant thousands
who saw before them the first opportu-
nifty IN weeks to procure little nourish-
ing food for themselves. and. IN ioany
cases for their starving children.
More than 400 famishcd wre,ches who
had been unable TO procure ic':ets swell
ed the throngs. clamOring for bread
The spectacle was a most pitiable one.
and clearly Indicated the abyss Of suffer-
Ing into which the war has plunged
thousands OF the lower classes. who prior
TO the outbreak OF hOstilities. were aOlo
10 take care OF themselves and heir
families.
In the crowds were many peasants ana
others from the country whose means OF
livelihood have been lost and who came
10 Madrid with the futile hope that in the
capital they will be able 20 ind employ
ment.
Suffering and despair were plainly visit
bic on their features and tears stood In
the eyes Of many as their scanty dole
of food was passed 10 them.
when the supply of provisions had been
exhausted Senior Aguillera ordered that
a. real. the value Of which IS about 10
cents. be given 10 each Of those who had
received no food.
