through being "thrown in"
Asked relative to whom was re-

Judge J. NJ. Martin returned Mon
day evening from his Minneapolis
trip, where he had been as chief
counsel for the defense in the case
of the State vs.. DIR. Ames. J.
The trial was one exciting much
interest in all sections of the.state,
the opposing attorneys appearing
in the matter being recognized as
among the brightest of Minnesota's
legal talent. The jury in the case,
after being out for forty-four hours,
failed to reach an agreement and it
is now altogether probable that the
matter will be dropped.
The cause of action was alleged
"graft" on the part of DR.. Ames
while mayor of Minneapolis, and
Judge Martin feels that the outcome
of the trial is a decided victory, in
asmuch as previous trials Of the
cause have BONE different aspect
in findings relative to his client.

Tendency of the Times

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being Civ
en- to the subject. 1t is easier to pre-
vent than to cure. It has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that med
ical men have to contend with, can be
prevented bv the use of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always
results from a cold or from an attack
of influenza grip, and it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts
any tendency of these diseases toward
pneumonia. This has been fully prov
en- in many thousands of cases in
which this remedy has been used dur
ing the great prevalence of colds and
grip in recent years, and can be re-
lied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from a slight
cold when no danger is apprehended
until it is suddenly discovered that
there is fever and difficulty in breath
ing and pains in the chest, then it is
announced that the patient has pneu-
monia. Be on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon
as the cold is contracted It always
cures. For sale by Forsyth Drug
