STATEMENT TIME.

Each year The Courier (and every
other business, for that matter,)
finds itself confronted with the neces-
sity of mailing to patrons statements
OF accounts. We have reached that
point in our business and are mail
ing statements to all subscribers who
are in arrears one year or more. This
is an unpleasant task, as we'll as a
tedious one, but, nevertheless, one
that brings us, now and then, q very
great pleasure.
The first remittance in response to
our statements comes from one of
our very best Of friends, and he "did
the handsome thing" by us in send
ing double the amount of our state
ment. Then, too, these very encour-
aging words accompany the remit
tance:
Yours enclosing statement of my
account to hand. | enclose you
check for $4.O0, which understand
will pay me up to March l, 1910.
Let me congratulate you on the ex-
cellent paper you are giving us these
days"
This the first response to our
calls on our friends has left a
bright little spot that will shine for
us for long while. We hope that
all the others of our friends will
view the matter as this gentleman
has and respond promptly and cheer
fully. There Is no call for any one
to "get mad" because we send state
ments. 1t is not personal matter
with us, but simply business.
When you receive your gentle re-
minder" from The Courier just drop
in and see us, or drop us check
post Office or express order, or drop
the cold cash-drop something-but
whatever you do, don't "get mad"
and drop The Courier, because that
would be clear case Of "cutting off
your nose to spite your face"

How to Cure a Cold.

Be as careful as you can you will
occasionally take cold, and when you
do, get medicine of known reliabil-
ity, one that has All established re-
putation and that is certain to effect
a quick cure. Such a medicine is
Chamberlain Cough Remedy. 1t
has gained world wide reputation
by its remarkable cures of this most
common ailment, and can always be
depended upon. 1t acts on nature s
plan, relieves the lungs, aids cxpecto-
ration, opens the secretions and aids
nature in restoring the system to q
healthy condition. During the many
years in which it has been in general
use we have yet to learn of single
case of cold or attack of the grip
having resulted in pneumonia when
this remedy was used, which shows
conclusively that it is a certain pre-
ventive Of that dangerous disease.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy con-
tains no opium or other narcotic and
may be given as confidently to baby
as to an adult. For sale by J. w.
Bell, Walhalla; w. ]. Lunney Seneca.

SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS.

In the light Of recent events it now
appears that two suspicious charac-
ters were seen about Columbia some
time back, and that they answer pret-
ty we'll to the description Of two who
were seen about Seneca just prior to
the safe blowing there. Speaking on
this line The State has this signifi-
cant paragraph:
There is no safer way for the
smaller towns to get immunity from
the operations of Safccrackers than
by picking up ali suspicious charac-
ters and holding them pending an
investigation and the post office de-
partmcnt urges that this be done, and
wherever suspicion is great enough

are unknown to them. The prompt
arrest OF suspicious looking persons
who give no signs of proper means of

the means of materially decreasing

Donovan'a Speedy Fall.


Wild Bill Donovan Detroit's star
pitcher, was long time arriving at
the top. When he first came into the
National league at Washington he
pitched three games without any one
getting more than one hit off him
while he lasted. The reason was that
he kept them too busy dodging, and be
averaged about five hit-by -the-pitcher
balls at a game.
Earl Wagner tells a story about Don.
oyan. 1t seems that Bill was pitching
IN q game between two country towns
He had even more speed then than
now, and March hare would have
seemed docile by comparison Bill
warmed up in fine shape The first
opposing batter came up and went
down with three broken ribs from the
flrst pitched ball Bill waited until
that one was repaired and bowled a
leg OF the next one Then he cayed in
the breastbone Of the third batter and
hit the next one in the head, knocking
him cold
While he was warming up for the
next one the marshal Of the town pa
raded out, showed his big tin star and
arrested Bill charging him with as
sault and battery and assault with In
tent to wound and Chicago Elk
aminer.
