About one month ago my child, which
is fifteen months old, had an attack OF
diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting. l
gave it such remedies as are usually given
in such cases, but as nothing gave relief,
we sent for physician and 1t was under
his care for a week. At this time the
child had been sick for about ten days
and was having about twenty five opera
tons OF the bowels every twelve hours,
and we were convinced that unless it
soon obtained relief it would not live.
Chamberla1n's Collie, Cholera and Diarr-

TREASURY DEFICIT.

The monthly statement of re-
ceipts and expenditures to be is.
sued by the Treasury Department
will show a deficit for the month
of July of about $S,500,00o, some.
what more than expected at the be.
ginning of the month. It is con.
fidently expected, however, that
there will not be another month II
the year with such a deficit, and il
is doubtful if more than one or two
other months will show deficit al
all. The other months will show
SURPRISES. It is thought that the
deficit of last month will be wipec
out in few months. With few
exceptions, therei is always deficit
at the beginning of fiscal year
The various departments draw
heavily under the new appropria'
tons, and during the first month
secure sufficient money to run fol
good while. The total receipts
for the month have been $48, O54
259, from the following sources
internal revenue, 1913, 322,574 10
customs, $l6,97l, 1921; miscel.
laneous, $2,760,229,14. The ex.
penditures were $56.573,0O0. In

of about 100000 over the same
