be glad to see the practice suppressed.
They do no good anyhow. Not one
person in thousand pays the least
attention to them. They are not read,
or if read, are not needed, and the
people who pay for their distribution
are simply throwing their money
away"
The way to advertise successfully
and in manner not to offend good
taste nor to interfere with public COM
fort and neatness is to publish adver-
tisements in the local newspapers. 1t
is altogether as cheapin first cost. also,
when the number reached, the cost
of delivery and other expenses are
counted. Newspaper advertising goes
to the reading and buying public and
is really the only way of satisfactorily
reaching that class.

NOBLER death can befall no man
than in front of his troops upholding
the flag of his country to his last
breath. Thus fell Gen. Henry w.
Lawton, one of the bravest and Iruest
officers who ever bore American arms
Weighing not the chance of danger. he
set mis- soldiers the example at all
times of that intrepid leadership and
dash that inspire courage. confidence
and patriotism. His death involves a
sad sacrifice on the part of the Aneri-
can army and the country to the
cause in which the nation has involved
itself. He was the typical soldier, the

A Sure CURE FOR GROUP.
Twenty-Five Years Constant Use without

twenty-five Years Constant Use without
Failure.
The first indication of Group is
hoarseness, and in Il child subject to
that disease it may be taken as sure
sign of the approach of an attack.
Following this hoarseness is peculiar
rough cough. If Cham berlain's Cough
Remedy is given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse, or even after the
croupy cough appears, it will prevent
the attack 1t is used in many thous-
ands of homes in this broad land and
never disappoints the anxious moth

effectual. No other preparation can
show such a record-twenty-f five years
