Prof. Fl. A. Howell. OF Havana, Cuba,
Recommends Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy.

Gas long as 1 can remember my
mother was a faithful user ard friend
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but
never in my life have / realized it's
true value until now" writes Prof.
Fl. A. Howell, of Howell's American
school, Havana, Cuba. "On the night
of February our baby was taken
sick with a very severe cold; the
next day was worse and the follow
ing night his condition was desper-
ate. He could not lie down and it
was necessary to have him in the
arms every moment. Even then his
breathing was difficult. l did not
think he would live until morning.
At last l thought of my mothers
remedy, Chamberlain's Cough Rem
ejy, which we gave, and it afforded
prompt relief and now three days
later, he has full yrecovered. Under
the circumstances I would not hesi-
tate a moment in saying that Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy, and that
only, saved the life of our dear little
boy" For sale by all dealers.

COMMON CARRIERS.

A common carrier, like railroad
company, is required by law to safely
convey, transport and deliver property
which it accepts for shipment, within a
reasonable time. and it is not only the
duty Of the carrier to transport such
property to its destination but to take
it to the place provided at that point
for delivery to consignees of property Of
its kind, and there place il in a position
where ready access 10 it can be had.
This does not mean that property is to
be carried through to itS destination at
all hazards in the shortest possible time,
but that the carrier shall exercise due
care and diligence in transporting it
without unreasonable delay. What
constitutes unreasonable delay depends
largely upon the nature Of the property
carried.
Delay which would be deemed unres
enable in the transportation of live
stock or peTishable articles might be en-
tirely reasonable in carrying goods of
such a nature az to suffer no deteriora-
ton. A railroad company accepting
perishable property FOR transportation is
bound TO forward it Immediately to It's
destination, and live stock must be ship
ped with reasonable dispatch in view of
its character and its liability to injury
from detention. Unreasonable delay
caused by side tracking cattle cars, uu.
der the pretense Of allowing other trains
to pass, will render carrier liable for
damages.
When conditions exist which will pre-.
vent the delivery of property by car.
rier within a reasonable time, such az
an unusal press of business in its freight
carrying department, which could not
have been anticipated, the carrier may
refuse to accept the property for ship.

GUN THAT RELOADS ITSELF.

Ever since men began to kill each
other, which was very soon after selfish
interests began to clash, good share OF
their leisure time has been devoted to
the elevating pursuit of inventing in.
struments for that killing From the
time when the early prowler in the
primeval forest discovered that, by tying
to the end of stick the stone destined
to crack the skull Of his enemy, he could
make the crack more surely deadly, his
inventive genius, sign as it is of bis high
rank among the creatures, has been busy
over this problem. How to strike, with
fatal effect upon his foe and with safety
to himself has been his study and he has
given birth to many an idea tending
more and more from age to age to en-
able him to do this work by mechanical
contrivance,
1t is curious that cruditiss still appear
in the weapons which the geniuses OF
centuries have labored to perfect and
that our eye should be opened at this
late day to almost ludicrous imperfec'
tions in our most cherished killing ma
| chine, the rifle. Yet it is only few
years since the smoke of black powder
WAS done away with and comparatively
a matter of days since young Mr.. Maxim
produced his sound choking flame-sup
pressing devices. And now comes new
from Sweden that an inventor there ha
found means, at last, to atop the kicl
which has made sore shoulders from thu
time of the first blunderbuss was dis
