For The Babies.

There is no better medicine for
the babies than Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. fits pleasant taste
and prompt and effectual cures make
it favorite with mothers and small
children. 1t quickly cures tneir
coughs and colds, preventing penu-
monia or other serious consequences
it also cures Group and has been
used in tens of thousands of cases
without single failure so far as we
have been able to learn. 1t not
only cures Group, but when given
as soon as the croupy cough appears,
will prevent the attack. In cases of
whooping cough it liquefes the to-
ugh mucus, making it easier to
expectorate, and lessons the severity
and frequency of the paroxysms of
coughing, thus depriving that dis
ease of all dangerous consequences.

THE CHURCH BELL
IS RAPIDLY
PASSING AWAY

The old -time bell-ringer will soon
! be as extinct as the dodo," said a
| church organist Of this city, looking
at the familiar picture of a belfry
group on the cover OF Christmas
magazine at one of the news stands.
"Not only that he continued, but
| the old-time bell itself is doomed,
and / venture the assertion that the
casting Of them will practically
cease with next year. The modern
bell is not bell SHAPED at all. 1t is
a bronze cylinder, open at both ends
and suspended in a horizontal
nosition by piano wires. When
struck on the,side with IA peculiarly
shaped hammer. made for the pur-
pose, il gives out a beautiful note,
varying in pitch from a deep, re-
yerberation to a silvery peal of in,
describable delicacy and clearness.
Its character depends altogether On
length and diameter Of the cylinder
and a set of rules have been for
mulated by which it can be deter
mined with absolutely mathemati-
cal accuracy. With the old style
bell there is always great deal of
difficulty in tunifg and its pitch
when it comes out of the casting box
is largely a matter of chance. Some
times the tuners will work over
bell for months, drilling out pieces
of the interior and taking off bit
here and u bit there before they get
exactly the note they want. The
new system will do away with all
that ana when achime is ordered
the cylinders will be perfectly adj
iusted to the required scale. 1t is a
great gain in accuracy, but what
horrible loss in picturesqueness We
will have no more sweet bells,
swinging to and from like great
bronze lilies mo more golden
throats' to inspire the poets and
painters nothing but a row OF
things that look like assorted stove
pipes hung on wire cables and ma
nipulated by electric sledge ham
mers. No doubt they will make
better music and cost less money
and all that, but / grieve for the

The fact is that the Beers are fight

HOW A TEXAS MAN
With High Ideal OF Honor, Shot
Up a Slot Machine.

The slot machine that takes your
money and makes no return for value
| received has at last met the well-mer-
tied punishment it deserves. Read
ing the invitation on the placid and
enigmatical front of one of these way
side beggars to be weighed. have his
fortune told and be RECALLED with sweet
music. a Texas man accepted and be-
slowed sc piece upon the solicitor
There was a dull rattle in its throat
but not a feature stirred. Another
nickel and one more followed the first:
still that machine stood there with
stolid and insolent stare. making no
more explanation than the wheat
market does when il swallows your
ally certain that it should have gone
up.
Texas people says the St. Louis Globe
Democrat are impulsive and have a
high sense of honor. This one was like
the others. He took out his revolver
and made a-well. a holy wreck of that
machine; such wreck that il never
more would tell a fortune or emit
sweet music.
Great Indignation was manifested at
once by the manager of the machines
who has been rather prone to regard it
as amost amusing joke or a mere triv-
ialitk when people drop their money
in his traps. and has neve rbeen known
to label one Out of order" or plug
up the slot when it was laying off.
The Texas man was arrested and a
grand victory for the people was the
result The judge declared that the
Texan was justified in his assault and
battery. that the machine was n fake
and that in his opinion. by which,
however. he did not intend to influence
the opinion of anybody else. all slot
machines were fakes, and the prison
er was discharged.
1t will thus be seen that prece-
dent has been established which will
make slot machines somewhat chary
about pracIicing confidence games in
public places. and those which hither-
to have promised you a stick of blood
orange gum for a cent and have re-
warded your trusting simplicity with
a cold and hardened look. will have to
mend their ways. or if they don't the
