A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a
remarkable record. 1t has been in use
for over thirty years, during which
time many million bottles have been
sold and used. 1t has long been the
standard and main reliance in the
treatment of Group in thousands of
homes, yet during all this time no case
has ever been reported to the manu-
facturers in which it failed to effect
a cure. When given as soon as the
child becomes hoarse or even as soon
as the croupy cough appears, it will
prevent the attack. 1t is pleasant to
take, many children like it. 1t con
tains no opium, or other harmful sub
stance and may be given as confident.

THRIVES ON KEROSENE.
Smallest Mosquito of It's Class Ii "A
Terror and Grows Fat
on the Oil.

DR.. l.. o. Howard, the governments
chief expert on the mosquito question,
frankly admits that one variety of the
pestiferous insect has turned up in
New Jersey and on the islands around
the harbor of New York with which he
and all the government forces cannot
cope. This species has been named
and classified as the Aedes Smithii. A
member of DR.. Howard's staff named
Smith discovered this most torment
ang species of the entire family and
that accounts for the latter part of the
terror's name.
The Aedes Smithii is the smallest
mosquito known, as we'll as the most
ravenous and the hardest to kill.
Every other species of the tribe sue
cumbs to kerosene oil when that fluid
is poured on water In which the young
mosquitoes are maturing. But not so
the Aedes Smithii. This little vixen
thrives and grows fat on kerosene.
DR.. Howard's experts hint that they
have found q poison that will kill
Smiths terror, as it is called among
the scientists of the agricultural de-
partment, but until they satisfy them
selves by further tests they will make
no public announcement.

A NEW FOOD PLANT.
Curious Growth of Uganda Recently
Discovered by IA Coffee
Grower.

There have recently been imported
into England specimens of the "glycine
subterranea," plant which is in some
respects the most curious in the world,
reports London paper. Mr. Balland,
who has reported on 1t. says that its
roots contain every principle necessary
for human food, The plant was dis
covered by coffee grower In Uganda.
Its bulb Is shaped like an egg, and is
of dark red hue with black stripes.
IT Is ground into flour which tastes
like chestnuts. Two pounds of this
-four is sufficient to keep a man for a
day, and will supply the place of bread,
meat, butter and vegetables. Unfor-
tunately, the glycine will not flourish
In cold climates. 1t Is, however, to be
introduced In India and Brazil, where
1t should prove an enormous addition
TO the food plants there available. No
doubt its finder will make very good
thing of his discovery.

Return of Ben Hur To Toledo.

1t is with much pleasure this paper
Klaw g. Erlanger's stupendous produc-
tion of Ben Hur, which scored such a
triumph at the Valentine Theatre,
Toledo, last March, has been re- booked
by the management of that play-hous
to open its regular season the week of
Sept. 81 to 26.
Unlike so many plays taken from
novels, "Ben Hur" has been deftly
handled, brings out the bone and slnew
OF that great story, and holds the in
terest from the first to the last curtain,
AS if one were enthralled.
The story of ben Hur" is familiar
to everybody. In the play. however,
the main incidents of General Wallace
great novels are graphically and faith
fully put forth.
Usually one approaches play made
Oh really powerful novel with misgiv-
ings, but with ben Hur" this is diff
ferent, and herein lies one of its great
est charms. In this wonderful produc-
tion, when they essay to show you the
inside of galley with Prince of Hur
at one of the oars, it is stage picture
that suggests the every environment
and takes on the semblance of reality.
The same goes with all the other pic
trues, from the allegorical one show
ing the Wise Men discovering the Star
of Bethlehem; and onward through
those stirring scenes OF Jerusalem, pre-
ceding Hur's arrest to the galley, the
rescue and the Grove OF Daphne, which
is picture of Oriental splendor and
pleasure combined.
The last scene of this great series of
pictures is one that will live in the his
tory OF the American Drama as the
best scene of the kir d eyer shown OH
the Ameri can stage. 1t shows the reun-
| lon of the mother, daughter and son.
after their years of suffering, the great
white light from Mount Olivet, which
signified their healing at the hands of
the Master. The final grand hosannahs
of large chorus brings the curtain
down upon scene which has in it
something that should live for longer
period than most dramatic climaxes.

MUNICIPAL TAXATION BuRTHgNsoNe

have grown into In nine cities out of every ten
there IS more less of public clamor against increas
Big taxation Ever added gratis extras increasing
allowances and fattening salaries combine to heap up
the municipal load The startling increase in the cost of
governing cities is receiving attention throughout
the country irrespective Of all political considerations
There was time about quarter of century ago when
discussion Of this subject confined mainly TO maya
zhes- but now the leading journals of the prominent
cities open their columns the views of writer's on
municipal government because the burdens of taxation
are so heavy that the hope nduged that through pub
lie agitation suitable remedy may be found for more
equitable and sensible distribution Of taxes
In the case Of New York there was considerable appre
hension dozen years when the controller showed
that the municipal budget OF metropolis had grown
from Sl2oooooo to $50000000 from 1860 10 1850 How
Insignificant those figures appear when compared with
the present tax revenue OF Greater New York OF the
total receipts Of S1&ooooOo city $4,000 600 comes
from the property tax alone
In all large cities II is the property tax which fills
the municipal pocketbook. but extravagant expendi
