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 mon
have to contend with can be prevent
ed by the use of Chanberlain's cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always results
from cold or from an attact OF
iflueza (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 often 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-
ed that the patient has pneumonia.
Be on the safe side and take Chamb-
REALMS Cough Remedy as soon as
the cold is contracted. It always
cures. For sale by all druggists.

varied from 800 to $3.50 in each case. AS
security he gave his personal note. pay

SHE SAVED THE HORSE.
Miss Zenora Sim Led Animal from
Burning Building.

To the courage and presence of mind
of Miss Zenora Sim OF 323 Greenwood
avenue, her father =. F Sim. the drug
gist owes the life of his fine pacing
horse.
At T. IN. Wednesday the girl who is
Is years old heard a great eommotion at
the stable and looking out she saw
smoke pouring from the barn door. Mr..
and Mrs Sim had gone down town a
short time before and She was left alone
with the smaller children
Miss Sim ran at once to the barn and
saw that the flames had made consid-
cradle Roadway and the horse was rear
ing and plunging while the fire was
burning in the manger directly in front
of him. The building was full of smoke
but the girl found her way to the fran
tic animal and succeeded in untying it
and with great effort succeeded in lead
ing the horse unburned from the burn
ing building.
The roof was burned off the barn and
it is almost a total loss. It was valued
a $500 and the horse saved at quite as
much.

STUDENTS UNDRESSED.
Storm Raised by Action of Chicago
School Teacher.

Chicago Feb. Parents of young
girls attending the Larirner school of
Evanston have been aroused by the &C
ton Of Miss Csenevieve Taylor, the prin-
cipal in ordering several of the girl
students to undress in the ante-room Of
the school and allow a physical exani-
nation to be made by Dr. Anna Gloss
A number of the girls, it is said. were
required to stay in after school and re-
move all their clothing and then stand
around while the doctor was making her
measurements. The officials recently in
augurated a system of calisthenics and
they wish to find out the result Of the
exercise.
The parents. however, maintain that
the examinations should not have been
made without their permission, and even
then they think the measurements
should have been made at the homes Of
the children.
1t is possible legal action for damages
may be brought against the board of
education
