Dear Sir:-If you cast your mind
back many years you will no doubt
remember the "kid" who at one time
+intermittently stuck type in the old

vivid. The news of the ending of his
life work brought me yesterday by
the receipt of the first PLAIN DEAL
ER have seen in years, quickened
my memory of a good man, and his
many good deeds. Peace to him. It
is indeed true as stated, that ones
,"best thought is that he needed no
eulogY." An honorable life well spent,
what higher tribute can we givep
Sincerely yours,

scarcely q passing notice. Every one
OF these cases of pneumonia resulted
from cold and could have been pre-
vented by the timely use of Chamber

who had every reason to fear pneumo-

use of this remedy. The following is
