Tendency OF the lines,

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 de.
monstrated that pneumonia, one OF
the most dangerous diseases that
medical men have to contend with,
can be prevented by the use OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from a
cold or from an attack OF influenza
tprip), and it has been observed
that this remedy counteracts any
tendency OF these diseases toward
pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands OF
cases In which this remedy mas
been used during the great prevail
ence of colds and grip In recent
wears, and can be relied upon WIN
Implicit confidence. Pneumonia
often results from u slight cold
when no danger is apprehended
until 1t is suddenly discovered
that there is fever and difficulty
In breathing and palns In the
chest, then 1t is announced that
the patient has pneumonia, BE
an the safe side and take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy as soon as
the cold is contracted. 1t always
cures. For sale by A. M. Hughes

The money was ob> tained through the Manufacturers National bank and the bank people fur nished bank notes from the $1, ,OO0 fell low down that have never been used before. The "swish-wish" of this new and rustling bunch of dough sounds like the frou-frou of silk skirts and would warm the cookies of your heart to hear it. The whole will be inclosed in handsome frame and, beginning tonight will be on exhibition in the Lake X Strobel Co.'S window until the fair closes and the lucky people scoop it in. Currans nortp window will ba a dream in purple and white tonight and next week and will probably be the handsomest ill Elk display ever seen in the state The dainty fire screen presented by Mrs M. J. Colloty will also be there. The design is in sprays of wild roses and in beauty of execution almost rivals this prettiest of wild wood blossoms in nature. Work is being pushed on the very extensive decorations at the Auditorium, and ev- erything will be in readiness for Mon day night Dancers are reminded that the lodge of Eagles has made the Au- litorium floor the best in the state and people can twinkle their toes through the Eiks' carnival to the accompani- ment of the highest class of music. Every Elk should be on hand at 7:30
 Monday night at the Auditorium.
