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 neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by u whoop from one of
the children. The Group remedies are
almost sure to be lost, in case of Group,
as II 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 modern
mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is better and does not cost so
much 1t causes the patient to throw
up the phlegm" quicker, and gives re-
lief in shorter time. Give this remedy
as soon as the croupy cough appears
and it will prevent the attack. 1t
never fails and is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by dolores Mercantile

money to pay for its superfuous
employees was not such bad
Legislature. In fact the Herald
halls this abstemiousness as a
proof of the Legislatures WORTH
ness. But $4,000 was not the
whole of the cost of unnecessary
employees. The Senate was not
far behind the House and the
House paid out something like
$40. 900 all told for its employees.
Altogether the two houses appro-
priated not far from $4,000 for
employees which should have
been kept down to S20,OOO,-To-
