A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
a remarkable record. 1t has been In
use for over thirty years, during
which time many million bottles have
been sold and used. 1t has long been
the standard and main reliance in
the treatment of Group in thousands
of homes, yet during all this time no
case has ever been reported to the
manufacturers where it failed to affect
a cure. When given as soon as the
child becomes hoarse or as soon as
the croupy cough appears, it will pre-
vent the attack. 1t is pleasant to
take, many children like it. 1t con-
tains no opium or other harmful sub
stances and may be given as conf
IDENTIFY to child as to an adult.

having friendly bout in the way oil
a baseball contest. st. Adams, some

that Swanton, the country town,
wasn't much on baseball, and so
Swanton just to show that there
were some things about the great
American game that the railroad
town didn't know, sent out a chal-

Two games have been played and
Swanton took both, hopping the
field with her competitors. St. AL
bans, somewhat chagrined, bears
the defeat nobly, but Swanton is
so elated oyer the victory that she

A western newspaper-we have
forgotten its name-is said to be
printing a chapter of the Bible each
day on it's editorial page. This
seemed to some genius to offer a fine
opportunity for a practical joke, so
he started a story that all went well
until the editor came to the fifty
fourth chapter of Genesis, when some
body interfered whit, on the ground
that the publication was improper in
a public newspaper. A whole lot of
newspapers in all parts of the coun-
try commented upon this in various
ways until it finally occurred to one
editor to hunt up the ffty-fourth
chapter of Genesis and see what it
contained. Then he made the discov-
cry that Genesis has only fifty chap
tiers, and began to say things about
the familiarity of the newspaper com
mentators with the scriptures
