Rational Pneumonia Treatment.

The most successful physicians are now
treating pneumonia bys the application
of counter irrirants. They are learning
to resist the temptation to doctor the
cough, which, after all, is only natures
effort to relieve herself, and are en-
deavoring to reach the seat Of the con-
gestion without the use of internal rem
edies.
Some are using preparations about as
pleasant to the patient as an application
of mud or putty, but the wisest use q
pleasant liquid counter-irritant.
The ideal remedysis Noah's Liniment.
It's carefully compounded ingredients

and Immediately reduce the infamma-
tion and congestion.

less, and can be used freely without con-
sultation with a physician. Apply the

congestion. Saturate hot flannel and
keep it applied to that portion of the
body. The effect will be almost imme-
diate, and in many cases the threatened
pneumonia will be dispelled before q
physician can be secured.

back, stiff joints and muscles, sore

Kick the Printer.

In the city of Brooklyn, N. Y, there
has been for many years a conspic'
uous signboard outside an q. ice which
reads, "Kick the Printer"
Bibulous persons sometimes go in
side to carry out the apparent request
but they discover that the printer is
gentleman by the name of Kick.
In every town there are persons
who, if they do not actually feel like
kicking the printer-the newspaper
man-at any rate do a lot of kicking
at the way he conducts his paper.
: Please don't kick the printer, he is
doing the best he can.
And what he does for the town and
community, despite his occasional
mistakes, may he great deal more
than the kickers themselves are do
ing. Did that ever occur to you?
We. are neighbors in this town.
What helps one helps the others.
What hurts one hurts the others.
Every community is natural benefit
association, whether organized or
just running wild. The printer is a
charter member.
If you had no printer-no news
paper-how would you like that? Do
you know what happens to towns that
don't support newspaper? Nothing
happens. Nothing ever happens in a
town like that. AS soon as things be-
gin to happen in town the news
paper comes along and tells about
them.
The newspaper boosts the town. 1t
records progress and offers sugges-
tions, by the editor to the readers, as
to further progress. Every copy of
every issue advertises the town. This
is all free advertisement. It costs
the town nothing. It costs the people
nothing. It is 2 part Of the business.
ia view Of this fact, which nobody
can dispute, it is much better to pat
the printer on the shoulder now and
then or TO speak kindly of him, than
to kick him.
No; don't kick the printer.-Ex.

Found Rife il Hollow Tree.

The hands of Mr.. G.. I. Cummings,
while cutting saw logs near McPher-
sonville last week, found in the heart
of tree an old seven-shot rifle, with
one shell in the barrel. It is suppos-
ed that the rife was hidden by Con-
federate soldier in small hollow in
the tree, which gradually closed and
concealed the gun entirely. The rifle
is said to be in an almost perfect state
of preservation, and, with a little oil
ing would be fit for service. The tree
in which it was found stood on the
old Confederate camp ground very
near the village of McPherson.-Beau-
