WORTH KNOWING.
Simple Remedy that Any One Can
Prepare at Home.

Most people are more or less sub
ject to coughs and colds. A simple
remedy that will break up cold
quickly and cure any cough that is
durable is made by mixing two
ounces of Glycerine, half ounce of
Virgin Oil of Pine compound pure and
eight ounces of pure Whisky. You
can get these in any good drug store
and easily mix them in a large bottle.
The mixture is highly recommended
by the Leach Chemical Co., of Cincin-
natl, who prepare the genuine Virgin
Gil of Pine compound pure for dis
pensing.

The court erred in finding that the
seven individual defendants among
whom are John D., and Vim. Rookie
Teller, Henry M. Flagler and the late
Henry H. Rogers, ten years prior to
1879, acquired compelling oil COM
panies to suppress competition.
The court erred in finding that

In finding that the exchange OF
