It's pleasure to tell our readers about a
cough cure like DR.. Shoop's. For years
DR.. Shoop has fought against the use of
opium, chloroform or other unsafe in
gradients commonly found in cough
remedies. DIR. Shoop, it seems, has well
coined the Pure Food and Drug Law
recently enacted, for he has worked along
similar lines many years. For nearly 20
years DR.. Shoop's Cough Cure containers
have had a warning printed on them
against opium and other narcotic poisons.
He has thus made it possible for mothers
to protect their children by simply in
sisting on having DR.. Shoop's Cough Cure.

The Late D. II. Chadwick.

In the passing of Dana Chadwick to the
higher life. Ii is fitting to mention some OF
his attainments and virtues-not that they
will be forgotten by those who knew him,
but for the good which comes to those
who read OF noble qualities, modestly and
sincerely lived to the end OF long life.
Mr.. Chadwick was possessed OF a refined
nature, good education and artistic
ability as a painter. His handlwork was
sought at hcise and for miles distant.
With hIs brush he wrote the story of hls
character -4is strokewas free, his lines
faultless, his tors true. His most natural
attribute WAS kindness. His dumb
creatures knew him only as their bene-
factor. Children received his attention
and benefcente. He found the places
where encouragement and helping hand
were needed, and his left hand knew not
what his right hand did. As a neighbor
ana friend, he was social, courteous.
appreciative and obliging.
His home life was exemplary-a devoted
son whose privilege and pleasure it was to
care for aged parents, a helpful brother,
! faithful husband, who blessed his home
with peace and plenty, and, while we may
not say loving father. the love was there,
and young man has gone out from his
home the better for sUncle Dana's" care
aud protection and the influence OF his
honest, upright life.
! He will be missed by many friends, but
to his home and neighbors the separation
comes as great sorrow. The approaching
change he welcomed, and, having loved
his fellowmen, passed away as one ''whom
love of God had blessed" CONTRIBUTED.
