TO PREVENT la GRIPPE.
Timely Advice From the New York mag
azine Of Sanitation and Hygiene

The New York Magazine Of Santa
tion and Hygiene says that a more mer-
!tOrious medicine than Krause' Cold
Cure for the prevention and cure OF La
Grippe has never come under the ex-
animation OF the chemical and medical
experts Of that magazine. As soon as
you begin to take cold or feel the first
symptoms OF the Grip take a Krause's
Cold Cure Capsule every 3 hours dur
Jog the day and 2 before retiring at
night. This will insure good nights
rest and free movement OF the bowels
next morning. Continue the treatment
next day and you need have no fear OF
the Grip.
Krause's Cold Cure Is guaranteed to
break up La Grippe in Il day, and to
cure an ordinary cold over night. 1t is
new principle in medicine prepared
in soft, soluble gelaline capsules, which
are easily dissolved by the warmth and
fluids of the stomach. They are far
superior to hard, sugar-coated pills OF
tablets. They do not effect the head as
does quinine nor upset the stomach
They contain no calomel, and can be
taken with safety by the most delicate
woman or child. Krause's Cold Cure
is for sale by druggists at % cts. box

DENIALS BEGIN.
Canadian Pacific Said to Have No In
terest in HilTs Scheme.

Montreal, Jan st. G. Shaughnessy.
president Of the Canadian Pacific rail-
way, who has just returned from a trip
to Milwaukee. denied that the Canadian
Pacific was interested in James J. Hill's
consolidation of the Northern Pacific
and Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul and
other roads to secure new tranRcOnt1n-
entail line. The story that Individual
directors or stockholders Of the company
have put up large amounts of money,
he said, to insure the success of Mr.
HIPS supposed scheme came to the
men whose names were mentioned. as a
surprise
Il have known for some time past, -
said Mr.. Shaughnessy, that negotia-
lions were going on between the Grow 8
Nest Coal company and James j. Hill,
the president of the Great Northern. NO
doubt the statement made by Mr.. Rog-
ers the mama ing director Of the coal
company, that the negotiations have
merely resulted in a contract under
which the Great Northern Is to take 500
tons Of coal a day, is quite correct
But in view of the fact that the coal
thing like the requirements Of the rail-
coal consuming industries of British
Columbia. a proposal to divert such a.
large additional tonnage causes a con-
siderable degree Of apprehension 1t is
to be hoped that If the coal company
has made any such contract for the
shipment Of coal to the United States it
win not take effect until the output of
the company's mines is sufficient to
supply Canadian wants"
