CITIZEN OBJECTS To
ADVANCE IN SALARIES

Rock Island, March 14.-Editor Ar
gus: 1t has come to my knowledge
that the city council is about to pass
an ordinance whereby to raise the
salaries of the respective city officers.
Being citizen and taxpayer of this
city, 1 herewith put forth my protest
against such a course for | do not be-
lieve that the financial condition of
our city is such as to permit it with
out overburdening our taxpayers.
We all know that our city is getting
larger and needs better care, but the
money can be expended to much
better advantage than by increasing
the salaries of our officers. Persons
seeking new locations would investi-
gate the extravaganza of the city and
would then locate elsewhere. Recent
public opinion has been running very
high and therefore this matter COM
ing up, seems to me, to be entirely
inopportune.
l would be pleased to hear from
other citizens and get their opinion
on this intended project.
Yours respectfully.

OF ChamDerIaln's Cough Remedy.
when L had an attack of the grip
last winter (the second one) l actual
ly cured myself with one bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy" says
Frank w. Perry, editor of the Enter
prise, Shortsville, n. y. This is the
honest truth. 1 at times kept from
coughing myself to pieces by taking
a teaspoonful of this remedy, and
when the coughing spell would come
on at night l would take Il dose and
it seemed that in the briefest inter-
val the cough would pass off and l
would go to sleep perfectly free from
cough and its accompanying pains.
To say that the remedy acted as
most agreeable surprise is putting it
very mildly. l had no idea that ii
would or could knock out the grip,
simply because l had never tried it
for such purpose, but it did, and it
seemed with the second attack of
coughing the remedy caused it to not
only be of less duration, but the pains
were far less severe, and I had not
used the contents of one bottle before
MFR. Grip had bid me adieu." For sale
by all druggists.
