WHY COLDS ARE DANGEROU,

WHY COLDS ARE DANGEROUS.
Because you have contracted ordin-
ary colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for "A moment imagine that colds are not
dangerous. Everyone knows that
Pneumonia and chronic calarrh have
their origin in a common cold. Con.
sumption is not caused by cold but
the cold prepares the system for the re-
ception and development of the germs
that would not otherwise have found
Judgement. 1t is the same with all in.
iectious diseases. Diptheria, scarlet
fever, measles and whooping cough are
much more likely to be contracted when
the child has cold You will see
from this that more real danger turks
IN a cold than in any other of the com.
mon ailments. The easiest and quick.
est way to cure a cold is to take Cham.
herlain's Cough Remedy. The many
remarkable cures effected by this pre-
paration have made it staple article
at trade over a large part OF the world

Hamilton Press: A long forgotten
! incident was brought to the attention
of our people the past week when a
gentleman from Luray, Mo. named
Hawkins. was in the city looking up
the record of the death of his father
which occurred here in the spring of
1869. The elder Hawkins was at the
time of his death living in Luray but
was here on visit with friends east
of this city. On his return the river
had risen and was flowing over tho
dyke and as he rounded the turn OF
the dyke his team lost their footing
and he and the horses were drowned
| The body was rescued and buried just
north of the dyke where for mum
Der OF years afterwards the grave
could be seen by the passersby. Sub
/ sequently the body was removed to the
city cemetery and there reposes. The
visit of the son last week bore little
| fruit as the old records of the cemetery
: We're destroyed by the fire of 1890
and the location of the grave was i'm.
! possible.
