EmbeZZIenlent.

For the benefit of Joseph A. Arment we publish copy of Section 54s3 of the revised statute of the United States which reads: "Every officer who pays to any clerk, or other employer of the United States, sum less than that pro- vided by law, and requires such em- ployee to receipt, or give voucher for an amount greater than that actually paid to. and received by him, is guilty of embezzlement, and shall be fined in double the amount so withheld from any employee ot the Government, and shall be imprisoned at hard labor for the term of two years
 If Mr. Arment will read the above he will see that for every time he caus- cd vouchers to be issued for services of conveys with rontraband goods des- tined to Canadian territory. making it appear that such convoys had work ed greater length of time than they actually worked, and paying such con- voys less than voucher called for, he defranded the government and was guilty of cmbeZzlemcnt and subjected himself to two years in the penitentiary with striped clothing and hard labor.

This remedy is intended especially for coughs, colds, croup, whooping cough and influenza. It has become famous for its cnre of these diseases, over large part of the civilized world The most f1attering testimonials have been received, giving accounts of it's good works; of the aggravating coughs it has cured: of severe colds that have yielded promptly to it's soothing effects, and of the dangerous attacks of croup it has cured, often saving the life of the child. The extensive use of it for whooping cough has shown that it robs that disease of all dangerous consequent ces. It is especially prized by mothers for their children, as it never fails to effect speedy cure, and because they have found that there is not the least danger in giving it, even to babies, as f "'H'nins nothing injurious.
