Many Sleepless Nights. Owing to a
Persistent Cough. Relief
Found at Last.

For several winters past my vie
has been troubled with a most per-
sistent and disagreeable cough.
which invariably extended over a
period Of several weeks and caused
her many sleepless nights" writes
Will ]. Hayner, editor of the Burley,
Colo, Bulletin. Various remedies
were tried each year, with no bene-
fetal results. In November last the
cough again put in an appearance
and my wife, acting on the sugges-
ton of a friend, purchased a bottle
OF Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
The result was, indeed, marvellous.
After three doses the cough entirely
disappeared and has not manifested
itself since" This remedy Is for
sale by all dealers.

DECISION THAT INTERESTS
FARMERS AND THRESHERS
Court Holds 1t is Not Negligence to
Operate Thresher Engine Without
Spark Arrester.

The farmers had their inning iu
the Circuit Court this week IN %
very interesting ease. William
Boyd, It substantial farmer Of Lib
rrty town ship, owns and operate, Il
throshing outfit, and on last August
was employed to thrcsh the wheat
crop of his ncighbor, Fred Best.
Mr. Best had stacked his wheat
near his barn in two stacks, and
directed where the machine should
hc set so as to stack his straw at Il
particular point; and previous to
this had stacked his hay about l2O
feet from the point whore the engine
should stand. The day the crop was
threshed II reasonably high wind
was blowing from the southwest to
the northeast, and on IA line from
the engine to the hay. The hay
caught fire and was wholly de-
stroyed. Mr.. Best sued Mr.. Boyd
for the value of the hay and claimed
SGj damages therefor, and alleged
that Mr.. Boyd was negligent in OPP
Grating his engine without fire ar
roster in the smOkcstack of his en-
ginc.
The ease was hotly contested, but
after all the evidence was in the de.
PENDANT, Mr.. Boyd, by his attor-
n"ys, intcrpnscd demurrer To the

ATHLETIC BENEFIT.

Last Thursday evening there was
II fair-sized crowd mt the Opera
House to attend the entertainment
given for the benefit Of the Athletic
Association of Carleton College.
Carleton is fortunate in having two
fine instructors Of music, Prof Me-
Fcrrin on the piano and Prof. Chase
on the violin, and both were hearth
ly cncored after their selections.
The Parsons Orchestra Of Bonu"
Tcrrc had been secured aud they
pleased the audience by their rem
dition of several numbers. There
were some college melodies sang by
II uuartcttc consisting Of Prof q. C..
Lynch, Prof. II. Mead, Earl Gaines
and l.. II. BrannOu, and several
were given in response to encores.
A on" act comedy, "Obstinacy,"
was given by Misses Fora Nations
and Wilma Denman, and l.. II.
Brannon, VIII Blnckledge, H. Mead
and Taylor Smith, and every par
was well acted and created much
mcrrimcnt. Mr.. Gerard Parsons,
who has heretofore been known as
n musician of ability, appeared in n
new role, that of black face com
cdian in an immaculate white suit
with red coat, and gave several
songs and ended with double shut
ie dance equal to any ever done on
the professional stage. He was
given an immense bouquet of red
and white carnations. There were
two other black face numbers, one II
Georgia campmeeting, and the final
lumber being Romeo and Juliet
by Earl Gaines and Prof. Mead.
Everybody seemed to enjoy the en-
tertainment.

The Legislature failed to submit
TO II vote of the people an amend
ment to the constitution providing
for Statewide prohibition. The
resolution after passing the House
had taN.rder attached to it IN the
Senate, aud the time for it to 20
into effect if it were adopted was
also changed in the Senate. The
House refused to concur IN these
changes, and conference com.
mittce could not come to an agree
ment. Thus the matter stood at ad-
IOurulnent. There is no doubt, how
ever. that the people will have an
opportunity to vote on a prohlbl.
ton amendment under their own
initiative at the general election in
1910.
