The Best Remedy for Group.

(From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe)
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for
Group is in demand in every neighbor-
hood. One of the most terrible things
in the world is to be awakened in the
middle OF the night by whoop from
one of the children. The Group rene
dies are almost as sure to
be lost in case of Group, as
a revolver, is sure to be lost in
case of burglars. There used to be an
old fashioned remedy for Group, known
as hive syrup and tolu but some mod
ern mothers say that Chamberlains
Cough Remedy is better, and does not
cost so much. 1t causes the patient
to throw up the phlegm' quicker, and
gives relief in shorter time. Give
this remedy as soon as the croupy
congh appears and it will prevent the
attack. 1t never fails and is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by all
druggists.

painter at age of thirteen, following
this occupation until twenty-six; in
1886 he became editor of a trade pa
per in Cedar Rapids Qowa) and from
1888 to 1893 edited a similar paper IN
Minneapolis; nominee for register OF
deeds in Linn county, Iowa, in 1886;
from 1886 on he was actively connect
ed with political and labor organlza-
ton work; one of the general officers
of knights of Labor; ran for secretary
of state of Minnesota on Independent
ticket in 1892; was commissioner OF
charities and correction of Minneap-
oils 1892; in 1899 organized the

The most notable defeat among the
republican members of the house and
one of interest to Iowans is that
of Representative Dave" Mercer, of
Omaha, Neb. He is now serving his
fifth term in the house and is chairman
of the committee on public buildings
and grounds. The second district
heard much of Mr.. Mercer when they
were trying to decide the contest be-
tween Muscatine and Iowa City over
building. 1t is stated that Mr.. Mer-
Ger favored Iowa City in that struggle
but had practically promised that Mus
catine should have building at the
very first opportunity as far as his in
fuence was effective. His defeat in
addition to the election of Wade makes
things look gloomy for Muscatine.
However. Mr. Mercer could have done
nothing until bill had gotten through
the house and reached his committee
and it is regarded very doubtful if
Judge Wade can get such a bill
through Mr.. MERGERS defeat is due to
the bitter opposition of Editor Rose
water, of the Omaha Bee, who has at
tempted for several elections to bring
him to earth. Because of Mr.. MERGERS
participation in the senatorial fight be-
fore the last legislature, Mr. Rosewat-
err announced at the beginning of the
campaign that he would fight Mercer

nomination at the primaries, but he

Stepped Against a Hot Stove.

A child of Mrs. Geo. T. Benson, when
getting his usual Saturday night bath,
stepped back against a hot stove
which burned him severely. The child
was in great agony and his mother
could do nothing to pacify him. Re-
Numbering that she had bottle of
Chamberlain Pain Balm in the house,

the child was quiet and asleep, and
in less than two weeks was well. Mrs.

tic liniment and especially valuable

Archbishops to Decide.

A majority of the fourteen arch
bishops of the United States are now
on the board of trustees of the Cath
olic university. This body will con-
slider the routine affairs of that insti-
tution.s The main questions concern
ing its improvement and development
will be relegated to the council of the
archbishops. 1t would seem that radi-
cal measures will be taken to encour-
age this institution by directing the
prelates generally to send a greater
number of their divinity students to
its halls.
The university has recently entered
upon an ambitious program of univer-
sity extension by opening classes at
the hall of St.Francis Xavier's college,
New York. The promotion of this OBJ.
ject will be commended.
