A Public Salesday.

Interested local parties are talking of
instituting what is known in many east
ern states as 'salesday," kind of auc-
ton day. The intention is to have a
salesday in Elbert once a month during
the fall and winter season, when anyone
having anything to sell can place it on
sale at auction. A competent auction
eer will be secured to cry the sale. charg-
ing reasonable commission for his serv-
ices. These salesdays have been great
success wherever held, bringing the peo-
pie together, and have been profitable to
merchants and others wherever held.
Local merchants should take an interest
in starting this project as it will mean
considerable to them in the way of in
creased business. The sales will prob
ably occur on Saturday and the date of
the first salesday will be announced later.
Anyone having stock or goods of any
kind which they would like to have list
ed for the initial sale, should notify F.. A.
Dotson, at the livery barn.

No Poison In Chamberlain Cough
Remedy

From Napier, New Zealand, Herald:
Two years ago the Pharmacy Board OF
New South Wales, Australia, had an an
alysis made Of all the cough medicines
that were. sold in that market. Out OF
the entire list they found only one that
they declared was entirely free from all
poisons. This exception was Chamber
lains Cough Remedy, made by the
Chamberlain Medicine Company, Des
Moines, Iowa, U. s. A. The absence of
all narcotics makes this remedy the
safest and best that can be had; and it
is with feeling of security that any
mother can give it to her little ones.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is espec-
tally recommended by it's makers for
coughs, colds, Group and whooping
cough. This remedy is for sale by Fred
Long.
