Danger Signal

If the ire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with cough. A cough
is danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to
suppress it than to stop fire bell
when it is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the coughing
This can nearly always be done by
taking Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, Many have used it with the
most beneficial results. 1t is espec-
tally valuable for the persistent
cough that so often follows a bad
cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs

Did you ever stop to think that
the editor will get the 'Iast shot" at
you, so to speak. During your life
you may have said mean things
about him, criticised his "rotten
sheet" and, perhaps you have failed
to pay him what he has honestly
earned your subscription. Your
time comes, you pass on and are no
longer in position to defend your
self. That editor whom you hated,
despised, and failed to pay, still
lives, and if he so desired, would
have cause, and an excellent oppor-
tunity to take a shot-but does he,
no-he hunts up what little good
there is to be said about you, and in
the incest way possible tells the
community you have passed on. If
you belong to one or more lodges,
in the same issue, perhaps, will be

All this the editor does for nothing
No matter what a mean, honery cuss
you have been, the editor passes
you on with not one word of dis
credit, while your friends and neigh
bors often find considerable bad to
say about you. Better think of
these things ana while you live at
least treat the editor like a human
being, for remember. he gets the
'1ast shot when you are gone

 CHILD MURDER.

The coroner's jury sitting on the case of Lena Brazil, charged with the murder of her child, held at Houston, returned verdict charging her with murdering her infant child. She was held without bond untl today, when upon agreement between the prose cutting attorney and her lawyers she was granted bail in the sum of S2,- 800 by Judge Linebarger.
 Miss Brazil testified before the cor oner's jury last Thursday that she did not give birth to a child at Little Rock, and her mother and brother testified that she had not brought an inbant back with her.
 Saturday, Dr. Hinkle, who is con- nected with the city hospital at Little Rock, identified Miss Brazil as the woman who gave birth to baby at that institution on January, also that the woman said she had chance to give the child away, but would keep it.
 Mrs Brazil, mother of the accused, teStlhed that Lena confessed to her that she had given birth to the baby and had given it ito a woman in a hotel at Little Rock; before she left the baby died; the woman she had given the child to refused to have anything more to do with it; that she Miss BraziD did not know what else to do with it, so she started home with it; being ashamed to take the child home to her people she placed the body in cedar thicket, and that dogs found it and dragged it to view, and an investigation led to her ar rest
