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. II is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneumo-
mia, one of the most dangerous dis.
eases that medical men have 10 con-
tend with. can be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from n cold
or from an attack of influenza (grip)
and II has been observed that this rem
edy 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 tho great prevalence of
colds and grip in recent years, and
can be relied upon with implicit con-
| hdence. Pneumonia often results
from a slight cold when no danger is
apprehended until II Is suddenly dis.
covered that there is fever and dfh.
Guilty in breathing and pains in the
chest, then II is announced that the
patient has pneumonia. BE on the
safe side and take Chamberlain
Cough remedy as soon as the cold Is
contracted. II always cures. For sale

The foreign possessions of France are
by acts of nature becoming rapidly de-
populated. Only a short time ago
the eruptions Of Mont Pelee killed of

and an estimate is made that at least
n thousand souls were swept into
eternity.
