An Attack of Pneumonia Warded of

Some time ago my daughter caught a
severe cold. She complained of pains in
her chest and had bad cough. I gave
her Chamberlain's Cough Remedy ac-
cording to directions and in two days
she was we'll and able to go to school. /
nave used this remedy in my family for
the past seven years and have never
known it to fail" says James Prendar-
CAST, merchant, Annato Bay. Jamaica
West India Islands. The pains in the
chest indicated an approaching attack
of pneumonia, which in this instance
was undoubtedly warded off by Cham
berlains Cough Remedy. 1t counteracts
any tendency Of a cold toward pneumo-
MIA. Sold by druggists.

Chicago, Jan. Receipts Monday
were estimated at 600 head. No quot
able change could be detected In this
branch. Business was moderately act
i've and values held steady with the
close of last week. Country demand
continues strong. The attendance OF
buyers was quite large.
With hard service, fever and I'M
avoidable neglect, the British forces
are losing heavily in horses In their
campaign in South Africa. Indications
warrant the prediction that the guer-
rilla warfare now inaugurated, and
which is so destructive to mounted
troops. will last for some time. Nearly
all the available horses that he Brit
ish empire can spare have already been
transported to Africa and the prosecu-
ton of the war will require large drafts
of horses from the Unite States. AUS
tralia and Argentine. British. agents
are now experiencing great difficulty In
procuring suitable officers mounts. and
1t is reported that they are visiting race
ira cks and purchasing outclassed thor
oughbreds for South American COM
manders Should the guerilla CAM
paign continue twelve months England
will be compelled to reinforce her
mounted infantry with 100000 horses
and mules. 1t is estimated that Brit
ish agents purchased in the United
States in 1901 around 10000 horses and
SO 900 mules for the campaign gainst
the Beers. The shipments from New
Orleans of horses and mules aggregate
nearly 5000 per month. To execute
urgent orders large drafts of Texas
and western branded horses have been
purchased, and an immense depot es-
tablished at Lathrop, Mo-, where the
horses are innoculated with serum
that renders them immune to ship and
Afican fever.

The probabilities are that the box
question will be settled by the depart
ment furnishing the boxes either for
sale or rental. If by rental, the box
rent of say 25 cents quarterly would pay
the cost of the box at the end of the
first year and add 500 income to the
route thereafter. This would also set
tie the ways and means question for
the renter whose lease expires with
the year and who denies himself the
