Startling But True.

People the world over were horrifled
on Learning Of the burning Of Chicago
thester in which nearly six hundred peo-
pie lost their lives, yet more than five
times this number or over 5000 people
died from pneumonia in Chicago during
the same year. with scarcely . paseing
notice. Every one Of these cases Of
pneumonia resulted from a cold and
could have been prevented by the timely
use Of Chamberlain Cough remedy. A
great many who had every reason to fear
pneumonia have warded it of by the
prompt use Of this remedy. The follow
ing is an instance OF this sort: ITO much
cannot be said in favor Of Chamberlain's

A FLY IN A WEB.

zone morning when busy In my
workshop" says naturalist, "a large
fly, double the size of bluebottle, was
caught in spiders web in the win
dow close to where I was at work. 1t
was held by two Of its legs only, and
for some time the spider, which was
about the size of the fy's head, pro-
ceeded to strengthen Its hold by at
taching numerous extra lines to the
two captive limbs, carefully keeping
out of reach of the others, which were
letting out In all directions In frantic
efforts to escape.
During short respite In the cap.
tive's struggles the spider cautiously
approached and with It's hind legs got
several turns Of its tiny rope round
one of the limbs that were free. These
tactics were carried on till all the legs
were firmly bound. It then injected
poison into one Of the legs. This soon
showed itself, for Its deadening effects
reduced the victims struggles in a
marked degree. The poison paralyses,
but does not kill.
Shortly after 4 second bite resist-
ance ceased. and the victor settled
down to suck the Juices Of Ito fallen
prey. The struggles lasted quite an
hour. Next morning the fiy was alive.
and the spider was still sucking out ito
