A Valuable Medicine for Coughs and
Colds In Children.

II have not the slightest hesitancy

Remedy to all who are suffering from
coughs or colds" says Chas. M. Cram
er. Esq, a well known matchmaker Of
Colombo, Ceylon. 1T has been some
two years since the City Dispensary
first called my attention to this val
liable medicine and have repeatedly
used II and 1t has always been bene-
fetal. 1t has cured me quickly OF all
chest colds. 1t is especially effective
for children and seldom takes more
than one bottle to cure them Of hoarse

this valuable medicine. and they ara

Condemned in Missouri and confis.
Gated In New York.

Judge Clarke of st. Louis has con-
victed and fined heavily a number OF
grocers for selling baking powders
containing alum.
The week before the Health De-
partment of New York seized a guam
tity of stuff being sold for baking
powder which they found was made
from alum mixed with ground rock,
and dumped 1t into the river.
The health authorities are thus TAX.
ing effective means to prevent the in
PRODUCTION into our markets OF injuri-
Gus substitutes of wholesome baking
powders.
As alum costs only two cents a
pound, there is a great temptation for
those manufacturers who make sub
stitutes and imitation goods. to use it.
Alum baking powders can be detect
ed by the health authorities by chem
ical analysis, but the ordinary house
keeper. whose assistance In protect
ling the health of the people is impor
tant, cannot make a chemical exami
nation. She may easily know th'
alum powders, however. from the fac
that they are sold at from ten to TWEEN
ty cents for pound can. or that som'
prize-like a spoon, or glass. or piec'
of crockery. or wooden ware-is giveI
with the powder as an inducement
AS the people continue to realiz
the importance of this subject an
consumers insist on having bakin
powder OF established name and chaI
acter, and as the health authoritie
continue their vigorous crusades, tn
alum danger will. it is hoped, finall
be driven from our homes.

AMERICAN HORSES IN DEMAND.
The Hardy Western Equine Has Earn.
ed an EnviabIe Reputation.

Agents of the British government
have not overlooked Montana In their
efforts to find horses for military pur-
poses. In some counties some range
horses. very much undersize. accord
ing to the American idea of what n
war horse ought to be. have been
rounded up and disposed of to Brit
ish buyers at almost fancy prices.
According to statistics recently
published. s35,0OO,OOO represents the
value Of the horses exported by the
United States to Great Britain from
1895 to 1901. During the single year
ended with June, 1901. England re-
ceived from this country the record
breaking total of $4,000 horses, and
our entire exports OF horses for that
year amounted to nearly s9,000,000.
These figures are all the more remark
able considering that about ten years
ago, or in 1891. the exports of horses
from the United States amounted to
less than sl,00000O. These exporta-
tions began on a large scale In 1895.
when over 10000 horses we're sent to
England. From that time on the ship
ments increased. until in 1901, the
record was as follows: South Africa,
l37,465; Great Britain. 22,69s; Canada.
S.43s; Cuba. 4,436; China. 2,317; Phil.
ippines. l,57S; Japan. 1885; British
Columbia, 1876, and the British West
Indies. 1879.
Since 1895 Great Britain alone has
received from the United States an
average OF $4,000 horses annually.
Our exports have included trotters.
PAGERS. roadsters. runners. draft
horses. and, in fact, horses of all
sorts which we're capable either Of
: rendering immediate service or of be-
ing advantageous for breeding pur-
poses.
or recent years Russia has taken .
conspicuous place among the buyers
of hlgh-class breeders having secured
: such valuable animals as Baron Rog-
! ers t2:09A). Edgar (2:16A). Nomi-
!, nee (2:17h) and Bayreuth t2:20h).
4 Russia has found our stations to be
. of immense value for breeding pur-
, poses in conjunction with the native
mares of that country. Comparative
ly few American trotters are being
exported to France, owing to the Gus
toms duties restricting the importa-
Il tion of horses to that country, and
also to the French regulations prohib.
iting their use. On the race tracks OF

Better Than Pills.

The question has been asked, in
what way are Chamberlain's Stomach
& Liver Tablets superior to pills?"
Our answer is: They are easier and
more pleasant to take. more mild and
gentle in effect and more reliable, as
they can always be depended upon.
Then they cleanse and invigorate the
stomach and leave the bowels in a
natural condition, while pills are more
harsh in effect and their use is often
followed by constipation. For sale by

May Kill Cuban ei.I.

Washington, April 10.-A challenge
was issued yesterday by the republican
insurgents. 1t was addressed to the
democrats of the house, and the repub-
licans who are working for reciprocity
are wondering what effect it will have.
The outcome may be the defeat of the
Cuban bill.
The champion of the sugar beet In
terests, Representative William Alden
Smith. OF Michigan, opened the debate
with the challenge. He began by ar
raigning the republican leaders who are
supporting the Cuban bill, charging
them with betrayal. He quoted from
their speeches, delivered while the SUI
gar schedule of the Dingley bill was
under consideration in an effort to
prove that they fostered the domestic
sugar idea and promised to permit its
protection to remain undisturbed. Mr..
Smith charged that upon these pledges
capital was invested in beet sugar re-
fineries and the farmers entered upon
the cultivation of sugar beets.
The challenge to the democrats Ias
delivered during parliamentary /par-
ring between Mr.. Smith and ReVesent-
alive Underwood, of Alabama, lhe whip
Of the democrats. In reply to an in
quiry from Mr.. Underwood as to
whether he would vote to repeal the
differential duty upon refined sugar
Mr. Smith demanded that the attitude
of the democratic members on that
question be defined.
will the democrats in this house
join us in voting to overrple the chair
and repeal the difrerential?" he de-
manded, eagerly. Mr.. Underwood was
not prepared to pledge the support of
his party. and evaded the question by
declaring that he did not believe the
house would have an opportunity to
vote upon such an amendment.
The plans of the opposition are being
carefully guarded. but the impression
prevails that the thirty-one republican
members who voted against the meas
ure Tuesday are willing to carry the
question to the extent of an open re-
volt provided they are given assurances
that the democrats will vote with them
solidly to overrule the chair. 1t is not
believed, however, after the develop
ments at last nights conference of the
democratic members of the house, that
they can unite upon. any policy. They
are almost as badly divided upon the
Cuban bill as are the republicans.
