Danger 81 Colds And Grip,

The greatest danger from colds
and grip is their resulting in
pneumonia. II reasonable care is
used, however, and Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy taken, all danger
will be avoided. Among the tens
of thousands who have used this
remedy for these diseases We have
vet to hear of single case having
resulted in pneumonia, which
shows conclusively that it is a
certain preventative of that dam
gerous disease. 1t will cure cold
or an attack of the grip in less
time than any other treatment. 1t

TWO INTERESTING BOOKS.
B. Z. Benson's "who Goes There" and "A
Friend With Countersign."

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: I re-
ceived the two books "Who Goes There"
and ''Friend With the Countersign," and
found plenty of interesting reading for
veteran Of the Army of the Potomac
or any other of our armies, for that mat
ter. Who of your readers can tell the
names of the forts the First New Jersey
Brigade Kearny's) built, or worked on
in the Fall of 1861, when encamped at
Fairfax Seminary?
Also, who can tell il the above-named
troops were ut the Angle, on the 18th of
May, 1864? The writer was captured on
the morning Of May Z, 1864, and never
again saw his regiment (the I'd N. j., Of
the First New Jersey Brigade, First Divi-
sion, Sixth Corps (Sedgwick's), nor has
he ever been able to learn the movements
of the I'd N. ]. after his capture.
Another matter that sticks me: On
page 1873 book "Friend with the Counter
sign," reads: II had marched here under
Stonewall Jackson on May 2, 1862, in his
great turning movement against Hooker"
On page 103, same book. it reads, Jack
son fell on the Cd of May, 1863"
l cannot reconcile May Cd with any
thing that can remember of any of jack
sons turning movements.-H. B. VAN

suit for damages in the sum of $500
claimed by the hired hand. The defend
ant filed n brief non-suit, because the
young man had given himself out to be
an experienced mixer and dairyman, and
as such must have been acquainted with
the fact that a buffalo COW would never
submit to being MIXED by human hand,
and should not have attempted it; de-
PENDANT also filed counter suit for dam
ages in the sum of $500, resulting from
the partial destruction of the stable and
wounding of two valuable mich cows, in
cident to the ignorance of the said expe-

The lower court gave damages in the
above amount to the plaintiff. holding
that it was the farmers or his wife's
plain duty to give the hired man due
caution previous to his undertaking of the
milking.
This decision was upheld by the Su-
preme Court.
