Cbamberiaine's Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t not only cures colds and
grip efectually aud permanently but
prevents these diseases from resulting
ia pneumonia. 1t is also certain cure
for Group. Whooping cough is notsdan-
eerous when this remedy is given. II
contains 10 opium or other harmful SUBJ
stance and may be given as confidently
to baby as to an adult. 1t is also
pleasant to take. When all of these
facts are taken into consideration it Is
not surprising that people in foreign
lands as well as at home, esteem this
remedy very highly and very few are
willing 10 take any other after having
once used it. For sale by Gibson q

High In in a Chestnut Tree

An automobiling party passing along
the road near Stettlesville, Pa, Wednes-
day night heard hOarse yells for help ap-
parently from some point up in the air.
After considerable yelling the party
learned that the victim was up a nearby
chestnut tree, at the foot of which was a
bulldog of forbidding cOuntenance and
nervous temperament and that the man
very much wanted to come down. The
autoists uuscrewed the brilliant acetylene
gas lamp from thetront Of their machine
and while one carried the lamp to dazzle
the dog the others, armed with clubs,
prepared to ''smash him." But the
dog saw them first. The man with the
lamp tailed to make econnections between
the rays OF light and canine eyes aud the
result was that member of the party
lost goodly portion of his clothes Jus'
where most needed. Returning valiant

Marguerite Lenoir, child Of IL, has
died ss the re, ult OF a savage attack made
upon her at Boulogne, France, board
ing-school. For sometime various arti-
cles belonging TO the boarders had been
missed, but the culprit remained undis-

of Jeanne Bone:, one OF the pupils, IL
was agreed that each boarder should
hand over some article to her aunt, who'
by occult means, would discover the
culprit. Next day Jeanne returned with
gold watch and chain, the property
of Marguerite Lenoir, who she declared
to be the thief. Immediately mob oil
little girls attacked the unsusPecilng
Marguerite and beat her so severely that
she died the same evening.
