Good Enough to Take.

The finest quality Of loaf sugar
is used in the manufacture of
Chamberlain's Cough remedy and
the roots used in it's preparation
give it a flavor similar to that of
maple syrup, making it very plea
SAINT to take. AS a medicine for
the cure of coughs, colds, la
grippe, Group and whooping cough
it is unequaled by any other. It
always cures, and cures quickly.

TROUBLE IN ARAB HOUSEHOLD

Curious Picture OF Oriental Manners
and Justice.
A curious picture of Arab domestic
life has Just been exhibited before the
Court OF Assizes at Constantine. Al
geria, says the New York Times. A
native named Ben Kemmari was ac-
cused of mutilating his wife by cutting
off her nose and upper lip in a fit OF
jealousy. The mother of the victim
stated in court that to cure her son-in.
law Of his jealousy she had consulted
a much-venerated Marabout, who had
given her as a charm for her daughter
a serpents head wrapped up in hemp
leaves, which was to be placed In the
folds OF her husbands turban. The
woman appealed to the public present
to prove that by this method she
would have cured the man OF his suspi-
clOns. ThereupOn several Arabs at
once took off their headgear and tri-
umphantly showed the same talisman,
while native officer OF the court, with
out being consulted, called out to the
judge: Eyes, have also serpent's
head; It gives strength to the man and
fidelity to the woman. Had the prison
Ier possessed It he would have been in
capable OF disfguring his beautiful
WIFE" The prisoner, when called ia
the stand, stated that It was just the
operation Of concealing the serpent's
head In his turban that he objected to-
and he attempted to show that had q
Iprotruding fang broken the skin on his
head death would certainly have fol-
lowed. This was not considered sum.
cient defense, however, and he was
sentenced to eight years hard labor.
