Cough Remedy.
"When / had an attack Of the grip
last winter (the second one) I actually
cured myself with n bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy" says Frank
w. Perry, Editor Of the Enterprise,
Shortsville, n. Y. "This is the honest
truth. / at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking a t%easpoonful
of this remedy, and when the coughing
spell would come on at night l would
take q dose and it seemed that in the
briefest interval the cough would pass
off and 1 would go to sleep perfectly
free from cough and its accompanying
pains. To say that the remedy acted as
a most agreeable surprise is putting it
very mildly. l had no idea that it would
or could knock out the grip, simply be-
cause l had never tried it for such a
purpose, but it did, and it seemed with
the second attack of coughing the rem
edy caused it to not only be Of less dur
alton, but the pains were far less severe,
and / had not used the contents of one
bottle before Mr.. Grip had bid me
adieu." For sale by all druggists.

Parties purporting to be representing
the National Library Association, have
been operating in the country school
districts selling charts, etc., and they I'M
load all the way from $75 to 500 and in
some instances more, in districts where
they can make a sale. The company
may be all right and the districts may
get the goods, but the suspicious part Of
the affair is that these statesmen present
a letter purporting to be written by the
county superintendent, which We under
stand is pronounced a forgery by Supt.
Reed of this county, it not being the same
as she gave the agents. The school laws
Of 1901 provide that the district board
shall not buy "any chart, globes or SINH
liar device, in any m year the cost Of
which shall exceed ten $50 dollars, I'M
less authorized to do so by a majority of
the school board at any regular or special
meeting thereof, the said purchase shall
have been approved by the county sup
%erintsndent of schools" The rapidity
with which these gentlemen closed their
deals and got their checks cashed in this
vicinity, and the bogus letter has a very
suspicious appearance. We understand
two districts in this vicinity invested.
Other districts in the county have also
Invested" and the chances are there is
trouble ahead for some n unless their
proposed contracts were approved by the
county superintendent, and it seems they
were not.--BufIalo Gap Republican.

We have the pleasure this week of re.

ing company in our district. 1t Is called
the London and Dakota Mining and
Smelling company. The property con
sists at present of two full claims in the
PeDobscot mining district and a water
right on north fork of French creek,
eight miles north west from Custer, and
was discovered and owned by Mr.. Thos.
| Carroll and James Jnnod of Custer.
The names of the claims is the Farewell
and Farewell No. /, which are situated
about half mile east Of the Saginaw
mine. Mr.. j. ID. Carroll, a brother Of
Thomas Carroll. has been the chief pro-
motor of the deal, for which purpose he
went to England, where he was forum.
ate enough to get into good company
who we're attracted to the proposition
which he submitted for their considera-
ton. They sent their expert to ex-
anime the property about six months
ago, who took samples and returned to
England. These samples were submit
ted to their chemist for analysis and
gave returns all the way from $500 to
$500 per ton in gold, silver and copper.
Lord Chas. p. I. Colmey is o here
to close the deal and organize the COM
paDy which he has accomplished and
will soon return to London. This gen.
tleman is q barrister in his own country
with the title of Lord and is a pleasant
gentleman to meet and converse with.
lie and his associates are interested in
diamond mines of South Africa and is
an expert in the quality of the gems.
The company is incorporated with a
capitalization of 81 100000 90, with stock
at $1,000 per share. Sir James Francis
Whitley is president, Thomas Delicate,
vice president, Ed. l.. Grantham, secre-
tary and Chas. P. T. Colmey, treasurer.
The directors are as follows: Hon.
w. +. Mason, Chicago, ILL.,; Lord Rol-
and A. Z. Hastings, London; Frank w.
Lawson, Boston, Mass; Walter w.
Wright, Mark A. Willis, Custer, S. d.;
Chas. Robinson, Anthony Gibbs, Lon
don, England.
Work on the mine will commence i'm
mediately and the ground will be thor
oughly developed when, according to
present intentions a smelter will be
erected on the ground. This calculation
however may be changed when it is
found what is the most effective and
economical process to adopt for the
treatment of the ore. 1t is thought that
the mine will be sufficiently developed,
and Il plant erected by the last Of Au-
gust next. With the exceptionally rich
ore in the mine tins company should,
and it is sincerely hoped that it will,
become one of the chief producers of
the precious metal in the southern
Black Hills. We welcome this company
to our district, and bespeak for them
the courtesy and good will Of the COM
munity.

If reasonable care is used, however, and

danger will be avoided. Among the

to learn of a single case having resulted
in pneumonia, which shows conclusive
