Mr.. Phelan writes the Forum about
rates and things in connection with the
late Fargo stock show. In this connect
ton we will say that the half fare rate as
advertised could not be secured at this
point, consequently a number of our
stockmen were kept from attending the
Fargo show.
Persons troubled with diarrhoea will
be interested in the experience of Mr.. w.
M. Bush, clerk of Hotel Dorrance, Pro.
violence, r. l. He says: "For several
years I have been almost a constant suf-
ferer from diarrhoea, the frequent attacks
completely prostrating me and rendering
me unfit for my duties at this hotel.
About two years ago a travelling salesman
kindly gave me a small bottle of Cham
berlain's Cholic, Colera and Diarrhoea Re-
medy. Much to my surprise and delight
its effects were immediate. Whenever l
felt symptoms of the disease I would for
tify myself against the attack with a few
doses Of this valuable remedy. The re.
suit has been very satisfactory and al
most complete relief from the affection"
