Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would you
run and stop it or go and help to put out
the fire? 1t is much the same way with
a cough. A cough is danger signal as
much as fire bell. You should no more
try to suppress it than to stop a fire
bell when it is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the coughing.
This can nearly always be done by TAX
ing Chamberlain Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the mcst beneficial
results. 1t is especially valuable for the
persistent cough that so often follows
a bad cold or an attack of the grip.
Mrs. Thomas Beeching, Andrews, Ind,
writes: During the winter my hus-
band takes cold easily and coughs and

is the best medicine for breaking up

Why Runkel's is so delicious is easily un-

In the second place, it has exactly 243o
cocoa butter. This is extremely important.
For cocoa with as much as 289o cocoa
butter is too rich and indigestible. And

The rounding out Of the week Of
development work in the eastern
fields differed little from that Of the
earlier part and was commonplace to
a degree. During the early part Of
the week the completion Of several
wells in new pools furnished some lit
tie interest, but the week as a whole
has not been sensational. The mar.
ket for crude of the Pennsylvania
grade remained unchanged. tits gen

butsit is likely to be some
time before 1t will be reflected In the
advance OF the market. While pro-
duction and consumption are SO I'M
evenly balanced in the mid-continent,
there is but little hope for an immedi-
ate advancement in values. During
the interim Eastern operators and
producers will be content to wait,
drilling principally in locations that
require immediate attention. There
Is no OCCASION for great deal of that
kind of work. Light wells are the
best that can be hoped for and the
development Of territory that can fur.
nish better than light wells can be
held back for an advance in the mar
ket.
Operators, when the market is low
and development work abandoned,
usually, designate a price at which
they can develop light territory. AT
the present time 1t is claimed that 9
