Indian Names of Towns.

The Indian was a born story teller.
Every lake and river, every rock and
every plain had its story, it's incident,
its legend. The Indian gave ever those
names that recalled these legends to
his mind. If the Indian names of the
United States were taken one by one,
and the traditions connected with them
collected from the fasl-forgetting White
inha bitants, wealth OF legend and
romance would be secured Such a
compilation would be a most important
contribution to folklore, and a treasure
trove to poets and noveaists for all
ages.
Poor Loi he has all but passed away.
Tepee City, Squaw Valley and Sa-
chems Head show that he was once
among us, as do also Indianola and In
dianapolis, Indian Bay, Indian Bayou,
Indian Bottom Camp and Creek, Indian
Diggings, Falls, Gap, Gulch and Head,
lnalan Mound, Neck, Ridge and River,
Indian Rock, Run, Springs and Town,
Indian Trail and Indian Valley. He
has left behind him his Kinnikinnich
that he used to smoke, his Moccasin
that he used to wear, Medicine Lodge
that he used to visit, and the Wampum
beaver skins. He has left behind him
also the Indian names of many familiar
objects, though the memory of these
meanings have been all but forgotten.
Mondamin means corn; Wawa the wild
goose; Opeechee, the robin; Dahinda,
the frog; Roanoke, a seashell; Chicago,
the wild onion; Omeeme, a pigeon;
Wawbeek, a rock, etc.
The Indian has left behind him hum
dreds of musical alliterative names, in
which the consonant or vowel sounds
are doubled. Good examples are Wa
waka, Wawasee, Kankakee and Kenna-
kug, Tuscaloosa and Tallahassee, Ock-
locknee, Ohoopee and Oshkosh, Mime
tonka and Massabecis, Contoocook.

ChamberIain,s Cough Remedy.

This remedy is intended especially for
coughs, colds, Group, whooping cough and
influenza. 1t has become famous for tbs
cures of these diseases, over a large part of
the civilized world. The most tlattering
testimonials have been received, giving ac-
counts ofits good works; of the aggrayating
and persistent coughs it has cured ofsevere
colds that have yielded promptly to its
soothing effects, and of dangerous attacks
of Group it has cured, often saving the life
of the child. The extensive use of it for
whooping cough has shown that it robs
that disease of all dangerous consequences.
1t is especially priced by mothers for their
children, as it never fails to effect a speedy
cure, and because they have found that
there is not the least danger in giving it,
even to babies, as it contains nothing in
