HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.

1t will be good news to the mothers
Of small children to learn that croup
can be prevented. The first sign of
group is hoarseness. A day or two
before the. attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by II
peculiar rough cough. Give Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon AZ
the child becomes hoarse. or even after
the rough cough appears, and it will
dispel all symptoms of croup. In this
way ali danger ana anxiety may &
avoided. This remedy is used by many
thousands of mothers and has never
been known to fail. 1t is, in fact, the
only remedy that can always be de
pended upon and that is pleasant ant
safe To take. For sale by f. W. Col,

The e-saw between Generals Brooke
and Wood is another example of the
boy play that is going ON in the mil
itary and naval service of the cou ntry.
There is a certain aristocracy in these
departments that looks with disdain
upon anyone not carrying the blue
blood OF West Point OF Annapolis in
their veins. There seems to be no
chance for ability to get to the top
there unless it bears the tag of
either of the institutions mentioned
General Wood rose from the ranks of
the common herd General Brooke
from the military aristocracy and as
consequence the warth of the West

The thing that the public demands

The President has been very prompt
in the matter as may been seen from
his censure of the corrupters when he
said:
No crime calls for strener reproba-
ton than the crime OF the corruptionist
in public life, and of the man who
seeks to corrupt him. The bride giver
and the bride taker are equally guilty.
Both alike sin against the primary law

difference in party policy sink into in
significance when the people of this
country are brought face to face with
question like this. which lies at the
root of honest and decent government
On this question, and on all others
like it, we can afford TO nave no divis-

Il transpires that the mother of one

worker in publication societies, such
az anti cigarette and anti dime novel

to learn that her boy did anything
wrong.
Simply another example Of sweep
ing the neighbors' doorstep. Had
she turned some of her energy for good
on her own home and made sure that
right habits were ground into her own
boy she would not now be put TO
shame by the wickedness of Ter own
offspring.
The great majority of mothers have
all that they can do to look after their
own sons and daughters and the
mother who neglects home for work
in other spheres be her intentions
ever so good, is not nc subject for
sympathy.
It's an old saying that whats bred
in the bone is hard TO take out Of the
flesh. Home environments are the
"bone breeders. II they are ne
elected then God help the ones neglect

compensate for neglect OF childhood
and mothers who are charitably inclin.

River Falling Slowly.

The Lucille Nowland arrived from
Memphis yesterday afternoon and re
ported an excellent trip out of Mem
phis. The cargo consisted principally
OF meat, grain and flour. There were
several passengers. The river has
been falling very slowly, so Captain
Bowlin stated. He also said that at
the time the boat passed Douglass the
fal- had amounted to only eighteen
inches, anu less than that the nearer
i the Mississippi, which is caused by
the high stage Of that river and &C.
counts for the failure of the back wa.
te.s to recede more rapidly. The riv
er fell about eight inches here last
night.

The Graphic will repeat that the
likes and dislikes of its owners and
editors are not ventilated through its
columns. 1t never discusses men and
measures from any personal feeling,
but purely from what it conceives to
be for the Best interest of the public,
from whom it receives its pat onage.
If it errs it is in Judgment. and not
because of any personal feeling. That
being this papers policy, it never
fails to have decided majority of
the people on it's side on any posi-
ton it takes: for the people have
learned that it is governed by princi,

is correct. A farmer with the right

international Arbitration.

There seems good ground for the be
lief that there has been Il real growth
among the civilized nations of a senti-
ment which will permit gradual sub
stitunon of other methods than the
method of war in the settlement of dis
putes. 1t is not pretended that as yet
we are near a position in which it will
be possible wholly to prevent war or
that a Just regard for national interest
und honor will in all cases permit of
ihe settlement of international disputes
by arbitration, but by mixture of pru-
dencc and firmness with wisdom we
think it is possible to do away with
much of the provocation and excuse
for war and, at least in many cases. TO
substitute some other and more rational
method for the settlement of disputes
The Hague court offers SO good an eX-
ample Of what can be done in the direc-
ton of such settlement that 1t should
| be encouraged in every way.
