Why our clothes are etter.
Nearly all tailored clothes are

some tailored clothes are better than 9th

When we say ours are better we mean that
they are made to the individual measure
of the wearer by Ed. V. Price & Co., the
famous merchant tai1ors of Chicago, whose

A suit ordered from Us Is not only the ac-

The new heater which is duplicate

No. fire companies, the engines of
which were tested and accepted in
May, 1876. Many Of the old residents
of the city will remember this incident
on Washington's birthday, 1877. Both
engines and other raphernaila of
the department were decorated in the
national emblems for the occasion
and 'shown off, through the principal
streets of the city at that time. The
OLD resident in speaking of that day
long past, said it was just abuut such
an ideal winter day as yesterday.
Along about 8 100 O'Clock in the even
ing, pomp and ceremony gave way to
a reality of battling fire, a call being
sent In from the Northwestern depot
TO subdue what proved to be quit.

NEGLECTED COLDS THREATEN LIFE

(FrOm the Chicago Tribune)
Don't tritie with cold is good adj
vice for prudent men and women. 1t
may be vital in the case of a child.
Proper food, good ventilation. and dry,
warm clothing are the proper safeguards
against colds. If they are maintained
through the changeable weather of aut-
umn, winter and spring, the chances of
a surprise from ordinary colds will be
slight. But the ordinary light cold will
become severe if neglected. and a well
established ripe cold is to the germs of
diphtheria what honey is to the bee.
The greatest menace to child life at this
season of the year is the neglected cold
Whether it is a child or adult. the cold
slight or severe, the very best treatment
that can be adopted is to give Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t is safe and
sure. The great popularity and immense
sale of this preparation has been attain
ed by its remarkable cures of this all
ment. A cold never results in pneumO-
