Consumption Is a Germ Disease? How
a It Start With a Cold?

This is a reasonable question and one
that must arise to the mind of almost
everyone when the claim is made that
consumption starts with a cold. The
cold simply prepared the system for the
reception and development of germs OF
that disease, that would not otherwise
have found Judgement. 1t is the same
with d%iphtheria, scarlet fever and
measles. They are most likely to be
contracted when a child has a cold.
That is why cold should never be neg
leeted. The longer it hangs on the
greater the danger. As a quick cure
for colds Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
can always be relied upon. Its remark
able cures have won for it a world wide
reputation and an immense sale. 1t is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by

How People Lose Their Money

BY concealing it about their person.
By hiding it in mugs, jugs and rugs.
By sewing it up in stockings and ticks.
By burying it in cans and putting it any old place
These are some Of the ways in which people
sometimes lose their money and often their lives.
Having money boarded up in the house encour-
ages robbery, and this often results in murder.

CONVENTION CITY.

The holding Of the democratic state
convention in this city marked an
important event in our history which
win DO Of lasting beAeft. 1t not
only demonstrated our ability to sue
ccssfully handle large gatherings and
care for the people, but 1t stamped
the place as q convention city, spot
where the pilgrims can come from the
hot sands Of the desert and cool their
parched feet in the sylvan waters Of
the lake. We gained a reputation for
hospitality that Is now as broad as
the state the and politicians will here
after have this place In view when a
convention city Is TO be- selected. 1t was
the FIRST state convention ever held
IN this place and proved reve-
iation to the delegates, who had al.
ways believed that there we're but
three cities in the state where accom-.
modaitons for such gathering could
be had, Boise, Pocatello and Lewis
ton. Now they know better and in
tho future these cities will have to
reckon with Occur d'Alene.
