in unconventional terms at the action
of the committee in charge ofyesterday !,

contributed money and went to some
trouble in decorating buildings tor the

A Judicious Inquiry.

A we'll known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for, a cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for a child or
for an adult, and if for a child they
almost invariably recommend Cham
berlain'sC Cough Remedy. The reason
for this is that they know there is nc
danger from it and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds
and Group 1t is unsurpassed. For sale

Elijah has started something ne
Some Seasonabla Advice.

It may be a piece of superfous ad-
vice to urge people at this season OF
the year to lay in a supply of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. Itisalmost
sure to be needed before winter is
over, and much more prompt and
satisfactory results are obtained when
taken as soon as a cold is contracted
and before it has become settled in
the system, which can only be done
by keeping the remedy at hand.
This remedy is SO widely known and
so altogether good that no one should
hesitate about buying it in prefer
ence to any other. 1t is for Sale by
Higgins Drug Co.
