SOMETHING THAT WILL DO YoJ

GOOD.
We know of no way in which we can
be of more service to our readers than
to tell them of something that will be
of real good to them. For this reason
we want to acquaint them with what
we consider one of the very best reme-
dies on the market for coughs, colds
and that alarming complaint Group.
We refer to Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. We have used it with such
good results in our family so long that
it has become a household necessity.
BY its prompt use we haven't any
doubt but that it has time and again
prevented Group. The testimony is
given upon our own experience, and
we suggest that our readers, especially
those who have small children, always
keep it in their homes as a safeguard
against crOup.-Camden Is. c., u. S.

There may be citizens in Deadwood
who remember Buck Joseph, said the
man with the taper fingers as he per
mitted q smile to lurk around the cor
ners of, his mouth. Buck was q full
fedged Sioux Indian, but he had
learned q thing or two in his time.
One of 'em was how to play poker,
and another was how to hold the best
hand. He was early on the ground at
Deadwood and he was a winner from
the start.
""There were some pretty slick
gamblers hanging out there in the old
days. They believed a good deal in
luck, but a good deal more in lingering
the cards. None of them, had Buck
Joseph's sleight-of-hand, however.
They tried him on time and again, and
they worked all the arts known to the
profession, but he was still ahead of
the game. AS a last resort they sent
over to Abilene, Kan. for me. I'm
not going to say what I was doing
over there. but the boys who knew
me best we're ready to bet 2 to 1 that

yer give them to eat?"
.".They couldn't be drunk, Doc" said
the boss keeper, "'cuz there amt any
thin in this here stockfarm ter make
man nor beast drunk. All them cows
has had out Of the usual feed this
week is a wagon-load of apples that
was dumped in the field on Sunday"
"Well, I'm clear dinged," said the
Binghamton man. II hearn tell on q

"Now, see here. Them cows has
two stomachs, and when you gave EN-
them apples they just loaded up the
second stomach, where they stores
things, like ali. ruminants does, with
apples. They kept them there TIL
they fermented and then they all got
drunk. That's just what was the mat
ter of them COWS"
The logic Of this explanation ap-
pealed to the local veterinaries, and
they agreed as to the u of the jag.
Undoubtedly this explanation is the
correct one, as the cows have been all
right ever since.-New York Sun.

most frightened the men in charge OF
them out Of their wits.
For q long time no one knew just
what was the matter with the COWS.
They went Keeling across the fields
like a lot Of drunken soldiers, rolling
their eyes, and every once in q while
giving vent to the most hideous howls.
When they got tired they either
leaned against one another or against
the fences, and that was the way the
men found them when they screwed

fallen asleep were sleeping so soundly
that they couldn't be walked up even
with q pitchfork. The local veterin-
aries were called in to assist the man
from Binghamton, and the three sat
up with the cows all night long.
The next morning the cows ap-

From the years beginning to the end
the comptroller Of the metropolis re-
