grand jury, which is investigating the

The principal witnesses were r. Q.

HOW OUR GOOD OLD GRAND
MOTHERS, CURED COUGHS AND
COLDS.

Our grandmothers had the right idea;
when any one had a cough or cold on
the lungs in their day, the good old goose
grease and turpentine were trotted out
and the chest was plastered good and
thick and a piece Of flannel was put
on; Their q tea was made of flaxseed. with
addition Of sugar. licorice and lemon
juice-pretty good stuff. too Why? Be
cause the principle was all right
The writer was talking TO one of the
leading local druggists about this the
other day and remarked that they didn't
do things like they used TO.
The druggist remarked that there was
one firm that had started on the right
track and had brought the good old prin-
cipleS of our grandmOthers down 10 date.
He then went and brought out a pack
age of the BROMO COUGH REMEDY,
and showed the writer. Upon opening the
package the writer found a BROMO
COUGH PLASTER and a bottle of
COUGH MIXTURE. The druggist ex-
planned that the plaster was to put on
the chest &c relieve the congestion on
the lungs that usually accompanied
coughs and colds. This lOosened up the
cough. just like the goose grease
did, making it easy for the cough mix
ture TO do its work.
The writer thought this a pretty clever
idea, and certainly a most practical one.
incidentally the druggist remarked that
the whole package only cost 80 cents, so
you really. get the plaster free.

Chicago, Jan. an. c. Markham. traf-
fic manager of the Missouri Pacific. was
the first witness called before the inter-
state commerce commission when the in
vestigation of the Hartman lines was re-
sumed. Mr. Markham was questioned by
C. A. Severance of st. Paul, acting for
the commission.
The witness was asked if the Union Pa
cific aud Southern Pacific were. prior TO
their consolidation. competitors for trans
continental business? He said they were.
Before going to the Missouri Pacific,
Mr. Markham was connected with the IL
linois Central. and he said that both roads
were extensive competitors for Pacific
coast business originating along the line
Of the Illinois Central.
WAS there any lessening of competition
after the consultations, :

Railroad Attorney's View.

Mr.. MilbUrn brought out the statement
that in All Pacific coast traffic originating
on The Illinois Central that line and the
Southern Pacific must be factors. his OBJ

traffic went. the Southern Pacific was
certain to be an element and could not be
