1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival of the doctor. An
Albany IN. " dairyman called at a
drug store there for a doctor to come
and see his child, then very sick with
Group. Not finding the doctor in. he
left word for him to come at once on
his return. He also bought bottle OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which
he hoped would give some relief until
the doctor should arrive. In a few
hours he returned. saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was much
better The druggist, Mr. Otto Scholz,
says the family has since recommend
eGs Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to
their neighbors and friends until he
has constant demand for it from
that part of the country. For sale by

FRANCE WILL NOT MEDIATE.
A Government Official Says Such {
Step by Her Would Defeat Its
Own Object.

Paris, March 13-The associated
press has secured from responsible
mouth piece of the French govern
ment the following exposition Of
Frances attitude in the matter of in
tervention in the Anglo -Transvaal
war which, it is said, has been solic-
tied by President Kruger. The off,
cial in question said:
I'VE believe it is true that the
Transvaal has sent request to the
powers for their Intervention, though
up to this morning, Kruger's message
has not been announced. AS far as
France Is concerned. she certainly
win not take the initiative in offering
England mediation, neither will Rus
sia. We feel that in the present ex-
cited state Of public feeling in Eng
land, especially as regards ourselves,
any step taken by the French govern
ment would defeat it's own object.
and instead of opening way to an
honorable peace, would act as oil on
the flames and probably only create
fresh complication. We consider that
overtures with England prevent such
a suggestion being construed as an
unfriendly act. The emperor of Ger
many, for instance, might take the
initiative. or President Mckinley,
without fear of creating the friction
which stands in the way of any such
action on on and after this is
done. reliance csssl1e placed on the un-
qualified support Of France and Rus
sia, whose only desire is to see the
end Of bIoodahed, and who are eager
20 tender their good Offices to bring
about this end"
