We claim that if catching cold

serous ailments would never be

monia and consumption originate from
a cold; that chronic catarrh. chronic

Hacking Coughs

1t is not unusual for cold on an
attack of the grip to be followed by
persistent cough. This is owing to
the roughness and irritation of the
membrane lining the throat Cham

very successful in checking coughs of
this character. 1t sOothes and heals
the irritated membrane. thereby cur
ing the disease that causes coughing.

WILL Get A MEDAL
E. w. Spencer, Rock Island
Hero of Early Days, to be
Rewarded at Last.
SAVED II IN LAKE DISASTER
Evanston Historical Society Proposes
to Ask Congress to Vote for
Medal for Exploit.

According to yesterdays Chicago
Record-Herald, Edward W. Spencer,
formerly of this city and now of Chi
cago, is to be given medal for hero
ism. if the efforts of the Evanston
Historical society avail anything. The
deed for which it is proposed to reward
him occurred AZ years ago at Chicago,
when Mr. Spencer. then student at
Chicago, rescued II survivors of the
steamer Lady Elgin, which was wreck
ed in a storm at Evanston He work
ed "a hours in the cold water gather
ing survivors who floated ashore on
bits of wreckage and who were unable
to land because of the high bank. A
rope fastened about his waist and held
by students on the bank was his only
aid.
The exploit attracted much atten-
ton, but congress at that time was
not awarding medals for heroism.
Those rescued, however, purchased a
handsome gold watch for the hero, and
he wears the timepiece to this day.
Son of First Settler.
Mr.. Spencer is a son of John w.
y, coming here in 1927 and settling
permanently the following year. The
son was one of the first white chill
dren born in this county He and his
brother were expert swimmers, though
one was drowned in Rock river while

is related of Bishop w. A. Spencer,
who was another brother and who died
recently, that on one occasion he was
knocked into the river by the jar OF
the ferry boat which his father own
ed, striking the dock. Realizing that
if he came to the surface he would be
crushed between the boat and landing
he deliberately dived under the craft
and came up safely on the other side
The memoirs of Hon. J. w. Spencer
are text book for old settlers, and
highly priced by those who are for
tunate enough to have a copy. The
original edition was exhausted many
years ago. The Old Settlers associa.
ton should have a new edition print
ed with the consent of the family A
copy of the first edition was given
originally by Judge Spencer to each
member of the Old Settlers associa
ton. Mrs. D. T: Robinson (nee Julia
Spencer, Judge Spencer's daughter, sc
well and favorably known here), wa:

cation.
1t is we'll known that E. w. Spence
only ceased his efforts to rescue the
victims of the Lady Elgin disaster af
ter he was drawn ashore thoroughly
exhausted. and his work at that time
was thought to have injured his healtI
permanently.

Taylor Ridge, Feb. 3.-(Argus Spe-
cial. 1.-The Ground Hog society OF
Taylor Ridge is holding its annual
meeting here today, with good at
tendance, and much interest is being
manifested, as is always the case at
these meetings. Many visitors were
late on account of railroad accommo-
dations.
The meeting was called to order by
the president. The minutes of the last
meeting were read and approved, and
the report of the committee who Wis
tied the ground hog hole received, and
will be made public at the close of the
afternoon session. The time until the
noon hour was occupied in general so
cial conversation and story telling-oi

settlement of this country and of the
organization of the Ground Hog so

Those who came by rail seemed tC
have it in for the railroad. Among
the stories about slow trains, Os Bru

load of yearling steers at Kansas City
some time ago for an old farmer al

it," said he, when they arrived al
Taylor Ridge they were two-year-Olds
and the said old farmer of Edgingtor
refused to accept them and declared
he had lost in the aging of the animals
in transit about $1,000"
The meeting reassembled promptly
at l o'clock, and after a few prelim
inaries were attended to, the president
rose to deliver his annual address
which follows:

This fact has been fully proven during

The Child'S Life
And Dangers That
Threaten.

The worst danger to which the
children of America are exposed is
the neglected cold. If your baby has
a cold, don't say, 1T will wear off"
and let it go at that. If your children
have the snuff1es, or sore throats or
watery eyes, don't hesitate to take
them from school for a day or two so
that YOU may break up the colds they
have. Every parent can add to the
healthy condition of ,le family and to
his or her own peace of mind by
guarding against any and every kind
of cold. Generally, the child does not
know how it caught cold 1t may be
impossible to prevent it exposing its
sensitive body to those dangers which
older persons shun. But the chances
of contracting colds can be easily
diminished by little care and fore
thought If the children get colds.

the list as the most efficacious for
colds, Group, and whooping cough in
children. and the one remedy that can
always be depended upon to effect a
speedy cure, and that is pleasant and
safe to take. This remedy contains NJ
iopium or other harmful drag, and may
be given as confidently to a baby as
to an adult. Its great worth and
merit IN the treatment of these dis
eases has been attested by many
thousands of mothers

Chi1d's Neglected
Cold
And the Result.

Colds are the special banes of child
hood and often lay the foundation for
the more serious diseases of after-life.
One child catches cold and scares its
mother into Mysteries by having Group
in the dead of night Another
child catches cold and before il has
fully recovered from it takes another
cold, and perhaps before that is over
contracts a fresh one. This succession
of colds, or even the neglect of COM
mon cold. causes the inflammation of
the mucous membrane. which was at
first acute. to become chronic, and
the doctor will tell you that the child
has chronic catarrh, from which it
will never fully recover. Another child
catches cold. Little attention is paid
to it, as the child has often had colds,
and always recovered from them: but
i'll this instance a stubborn cough is
developed. The parents are filled with
cold and could easily have been cured
