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 cough. A cough is
a danger signal as much as a fire
bell. You should no more try to sup
press it than to stop fire bell when
it is ringing, but should cure this dis
ease that causes the coughing. This
can nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial
results. 1t is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often fol-
lows a bad cold or an attack of the
grip, Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An
drews, Ind, writes; During the win
ter my husband takes cold easily and
coughs and coughs. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the best medicine
for breaking up these attacks and you
cannot get him to take any other"

RIGHT TO sELE. SHIPS DENIED

Manila, p. l., November 3.-The
right Of Philippine ship-owners to sell
their vessels without government
sanction is expressly denied in de-
cision made by tie board of pubic
utility commission rs. The board re-
fused the petition of Ynchausti &, Co.,
local shipping firm, for permission
to sell the inter-isl, ind steamer Cover
nor Forbes.
The board says that it can see no
reason in law or economic morals
why the firm should be permitted to
make the 100 per cent profit which
the sale would mean to them, instead
Of the annual so Der cent profit which
the vessel is yielding, at the cost of
the welfare of the people of the Phil
iDpines. q The Governor Forbes has
been plying between Manila and lloi-
10, the sugar metropolis, for some
years though this service has been
suspended for ':lle past few months
while the vessel was on charter to
transatlantic arriers.
The board does not attempt to pass
upon the legal aspects of its decision
but confines its eff to a statement that
the organic act which established the
board of public utility commissioners,
gives it power to refuse permission
Tor the sale of public utility company
property.
The steamship company will appeal.
