GOOD COUGH MEDICINE FOR
CHILDREN.

The season for coughs and colds is
now at hand and too much care cannot
be used to protect the children. A
child is much more likely to contract
diphtberia or scarlet fever when he
has cold, The quicker you cure his
cold the less the risk. Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy is the sole reliance Of
many mothers. and few of those who
have tried it are willing to use any
other. Mrs. F. G. Starcher, of Ripley,
W. Va. says, Il have never used any,
thing other than Chamberlain Cough
Remedy for my children and it has
always given good satisfaction This
remedy contains no opium or other
narcotic and may be given as conf
IDENTITY TO child as to an adult. For
sale by ali Dealers.

BUILDING UP WORLDS CITIES.
Growth of centers of Population in

The century just passed has Wit

had more than 100000 and none
reached 100000 At present there
are 100 cities of more than 100000 in
habitants, 55 above 100000 and seven
of more than 100000. In the entire
world there are 10 cities of 100000
or more inhabitants, including the Eu-
ropean seven. M. De Foville, a
French student of comparative stats

bon trimming which is entirely new
this year. The graceful Janet" hat in
to-day's illustrations shows this I'M
usual mode of trimming. Yards and
yards of threeinch satin ribbon, edged
at one side with pliable wire, are
massed into full rosette. Still more
