How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
MONA always results from a cold or
from an attack of la grippe. During
the epidemic Of Ia grippe few years
ago when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, il was observed that the
attack was never followed by that dis
ease when Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy was used. 1t counteracts any tend
ency Of a cold or la grippe to result in
that dangerous disease. 1t is the best
remedy in the world for bad colds and
la grippe. Every bottle warranted.

Recent observations with the seismo-
graphs At Maurltius have led TO the sug-
gestion that not only the ocean and the
atmosphere. but even the land, may
experience the effects Of a daily tide
running round and round the earth as II
revolves on It's axis. But while the
tides In the afr and the sea are due
more to the moon than to the sun. the
supposed land tide" arises solely from
the suns action. Moreover, 1t Is caused,
not by the attraction of the sun, but
by Its heat. A wave of depression Is
supposed to follow the sun from east
to west, caused by the extraction Of
moisture from the soil. At Mauritius II
Is found that there is relative up
heaval of the land to the west Of the
place Of observation from morning un-
til evening, and relative depression
on the same side, or an unheaval to the
east, during the night.

GRAND METEORIC DISPLAY.

Quite beyond the conception of the hui
man mind is the spectacle that will be
witnessed by nearly the entire civilized
world on the night of Nov. IL next. when
two thousand million miles of meteorites
traversing the heavens in n fixed course
will rush past the earth in their never
ending voyage through space
Upon coming in contact with the at
mosphere of the earth and subject to its
gravity, countless millions of these flying
particles will fall and become ignited
with the rapidity of their flight. Tho
blue canopy of the heavens will be light.
ed by great lines of vivid fire crossing
each other in every direction. while daz-
zling globes of multi-colored flame will
add variety to the awful splendor of this
rain of fire, which is one of the grandest
spectacles of all history. The fact that
they ignite and dissolve on contact with
the atmosphere here is all that saves the
earth from destruction by them.
This spectacle, which will be visible in
nearly the whole surface of the globe is
the great fall of the meteorites known as
the Leonids, so called from the fact that
the radiant point of the November me-
teors is in the constellation Leo. 1t oc-

week ending Sept. 30, excluding superin-

The Douglas factory has been closed

days out of the year that the factory is
closed.
