Traffic on the Great Northern
suffered a double interruption
last night. The west bound
through freight was wrecked
about three miles west of Err

suited in delayed connections at

fell at Larimore yesterday and
last night. The snow is heavy
and wet and piles up in front of

Proper Treatment of Pneumonia.

Pneumonia is too dangerous disease
for anyone to attempt to doctor himself,
although he may have the proper rem
edies at hand. physician should al
ways be called. 1t should be borne in
mind, however, that pneumonia always
results from a cold or from an attack of
the grip, and by the proper treatment of
these diseases a threatened attack of
pneumonia may be warded off. There
is no question whatever about this, as
during the thirty years and more that
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has heen
used, we have yet to learn. of a single
case of cold or attack of the grip having
resulted in pneumonia when this remedy
was used. 1t is also used by physicians
in the treatment of pneumonia with the
best results. DR.. w. j. Smith, of San
ders, Ala, WHO'S also druggist, says
oft: 81 have been selling Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and prescribing it in my
practice for the past six years used it
in cases of pneumonia and have always
gotten the best results" For sale by A.
