Don't take any chances. If you

discharge from the nose, sore throat,
or dry, hacking cough, get a fifty
cent bottle of Ely's Cream Balm from
your druggist, and begin the treat

Ovation for Roosevelt

Tuesday afternoon when he ap-

faith" speech.
AS the colonel walked toward the
front of the stage, bowling to Chair
man Beverage, twelve thousand men
and women shouted their greetings,
bands played and individual uproars
were lost in the general din.
The demonstration lasted f1fty-five
minutes.
Grouped on the platform behind
the chairman was the fife and drum
corps of the Civil war veterans. The
high notes of the flies and the deep
roar of the army drums added their
contribution to the thunder of the
vast assemblage.

WAS GLAD TO ESCAPE ALIVE
Exciting Experience of English Off
Ger Who Intruded on Sacred Mon
keys of India.

In various parts of India monkeys
are regarded as objects Of worship.
One Of the principal monkey temples
is at Nuddea. Such veneration is
shown here to HUFFMAN, the monkey
god, that visitors may not enter the
court of the temple without removing
their shoes.
On one occasion an English officer, in
passing up the country near Nuddea,
CHANGED to stroll into bamboo jungle,
when his boat had put to- for the
night. He had not advanced far before
he heard a terrific uproar all about
him, and was not little alarmed to
behold a whole army Of the largest
monkeys he had ever seen making
toward him from all quarters.
Some jumped on the ground before
him, others swung by the bambOos
over his head, and many closed up the
path in his rear. Several females had
young ones clinging to them, but
this fact did not seem to render them
less agile than the others.
The Englishman knew not what to
do. He yelled at the top of his voice
for assistance. To his intense relief,
each time that he yelled the monkeys
retreated a bit. This encouraged him
to persevere in his shouting, but he
observed that when he himself began
to retreat the monkeys would again
begin to close in upon him.
Then he stood still and gave one
tremendous shout, whereat the mon
keys went back again. This time the
man had gained fully 20 yards and
was about to repeat the call when
there appeared new figure upon
the scene in the person OF an aged,
decrepit woman hobbling through the
midst of the animals.
This aged person shook two or three
OF the monkeys by the paws as she
passed. No sooner had she come
within hearing of THE Britisher than
she opened upon him the walls of her
wrath for disturbing the sacred ami
mails in their retirement. She babe the
intruder depart, and that quickly, an
order which he lost no time in exc
cutting. The monkeys all seemed i'm.
plicitly to obey the old woman's bid
ding, making a way for the mans re"
treat.
The old woman, it appeared, was
employed by the Brahmins to supply
the monkeys with their food each
day. They were worshiped by all of
the people in the country round, who
brought offerings of rice and sweet
meats to them continually.-Harper'
Weekly.
