Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science is to
ward preventive measures The bes
thought of the world is being given to the
subject. 1t is easier and better to pre-
vent 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 prevented
by the use of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always results from
cold or from an attack ofinfuenza (grip)
and it has been observed that this remedy
counteracts any tendency of these diseases
toward pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands of cases in
which this remedy has been used during
the great prevalence of colds and grip in
recent years, and can be relied upon with
implicit confidence Pneumonia often
results from slight cold when no danger
is apprehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the chest, then
it is announced that the patient has pneu,
monia. BE on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon as
the cold is contracted. 1t always cures

Edith Wyatt, who wrote volume of
short stories, called "Every One His
Own Way" has very decidedly her
own way of writing Some like it, and
some don't, but no other short story
writer comes anywheres near souding
the note, and thUse who like her kind
of stories have to be satisfied with her
stories or none at all. For anyone who
does not know Miss Wyatt's work, and
