Fever Epidemic.

Some half dozen pronounced cases
of typhoid fever have developed in
this city the past week OF two. This
fact has set tongues wagging in locat-
ing the cause. 1t is variously attrl-
buted to the milk, to drinking water,
and other possible causes by the
guessers. While it is impossible to
prevent wild flights of imagination in
this direction, it is rather hard that
anyone should be injured in business
by mere guessings. The authorities
are taking steps to find out the cause
of this outbreak. Yesterday samples
of milk from dairy in town we're
taken, with every precaution to guard
against contamination, and sealed in
several bottles. These will be for
warded at once to the laboratory of
the University of California, for
analysis by the expert of that institu-
tion. When the result is made known
it will settle the one point, whether
the milk in question has contributed
to the outbreak.

The Right idea.

One would think the laxative idea
in cough syrup should have been
advanced long before it was. It
seems the only rational remedy for
coughs and colds would be to move
the bowels and clean the mucus
membranes of the throat and lungs at
the same time. Kennedy's Laxative
Honey and Tar does this. 1t is the
original Laxative cough syrup, the
best known remedy for coughs, colds,
Group, whooping cough, etc. Tastes
good and harmless. Sold by T.. W.
