MEN who Failed"
TENDENCY OF THE TIMES.
The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being
given to the subject. It. is easier
and better to prevent than to cure.
1t has been fully demonstrated
that pneumonia, one of the most
dangerous diseases that medical men
have to contend with can be prevent
ed by the use of Chamberlain 8 cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attact Of
if1ueza (grip), and it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts
any tendency Of these diseases to
ward pneumonia. This has been
fully proven in many thousands of
case in which this remedy has been
use during the great prevalence of
colds and grip in recent years and
can be relied upon with implicit
confidence. Pneumonia oftep re-
suits from a slight cold when no
danger is apprehended until it is
suddenly discovered that there is
fever and difficulty in breathing and
pains in the chest, then it annOunc-
Ell that the patient has pneumonia.
Be ON the safe side and take Chamb-
relain's Cough Remedy as soon as
tho cold is contracted. 1t always
cures. For sale by all druggists.

Paper cog-wheels have been salts

that paper in any form could hardly
be strong enough for such purpose.
but it has been found eminentliy suit
able even in respect to tenacity; the
behavior of pinions that have been
working necessarily for two years has
sufficed to show that paper pinions are
not only strong, but, as might be ex-
pected, exceedingly durable. Perhaps
their most conspicuous merit is their
noiselessness in working with ircn or
other metallic wheels.

to me this season is a more in
spring time for new resolutions
than New Years. In reality
spring is the beginning of new

chains Of winter and preparing
a way for summer.
So, of all the three months
of spring, decide upon the ear

I adopt my numerous new reso-
