GOOD COUGH MEDICINE FOR CHILDREN

The season for coughs and colds is
nov at hand and too much care cannot
be used to protect the children. A child
is much more likely to contract diph-
liberia or scarlet fever when he has a
cold. The quicker you cur 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. F. Starcher, of Ripley, W. Va, says:
Il have never used anything other than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for my
children, and it has always given good
satisfaction" This remedy contains no
add good cough medicine for children
opium or other narcotic and may be
given as confidently to a child as to an
adult. For sale by all druggists.

Render Unto. Caesar

Two weeks ago the PRESS printed
the news of the victory for the North
Dakota homesteaders in the coal deposit
controversy, getting the facts of the
article from the dispatches from Wash
ington to the daily papers. Senator
Leutz of Hebron feels that the North
Dakota congressional delegation was
given the exclusive credit of the victory
when, according to the senator. the
delegation acted in the right direction
only after the passage of a resolution
by the North Dakota senate. introduced
by Mr.. Leutz, requesting the delega-
ton to use all honorable means for
procuring the passage of the bill.
The senator writes: .
Previous to this, all, and especially
Mr.. Marshall, favored the Mondel bill
which provided for a title for the
surface only, retaining or reserving to
the government the right to all mining
privileges. Late in February, MIR.
McCumber, as well as Gronna and
Marshall. introduced bills asking for
full title, but as these bills could not
pass for the reason that conditions in
other states were entirely different and
the quality of the coal justified the
action2of the government. I had brre-
sponded with some of our delegates to
confer with the President and to induce
him to instruct the land department to

KING AND QUEEN WORK
TO- SUCCOR QNFORTUNATES

ROME, Jan. 1.--Although graphic
stories are coming into Rome OF the
horrors in southern Italy and Sicily.
these are but repetitions Of individual
tragedies already recorded What
chiefly concerns the government and
the people is the progress that is be-
ing made toward the relief OF those
who have suffered by the dread visi-
tation.
Considerable advance in this respect
has been made at Messina, where, ac-
cording ito official reports received here
the supply service is beginning to work
satisfactorily. The different regions of
the coast have been allotted to various
Warships and other ships as centers
from which torpedo boats and launches
may distribute rations and water to the
different villages.
Slight shocks were felt in the earth
quake zone today, completing the ruins
of the crumbling buildings These
shocks keep up the alarm of the popu-
lation.
Public opinion is greatly concerned
with regard to the safety of the king
and queen and the possible danger from
tottertng walls. The king frequently
has tried to persuade the queen to
rest or TO return to Rome but she has
always refused, declaring that it would
break her heart to abandon her hus-
band
King Victor Emmanuel has been in
defatigable. He has shown wonderful
activity and endurance, leaving no
point in Messina unvisited AS an in
stance of his grasp of the situation, the
king. soon after his arrival at Messina,
telegraphed to Premier Giolitti:
Send ships and men; above ALL send
ships loaded with quicklime"
SO far as has been possible, quicklme
mas been used on the dead; many bodies
have been burned and others buried.
In the relief work the officers and men
OF the foreign warships have been un-
tiring and their courage is beyond
words
