COAL DEALERS ADVISE
EARLY FUEL BUYING

London. July 3.-(By mail)--
Coal dealers are sincere about It
this time in advising householders
and owners OF big buildings to stock
up with coal for the winter. On
July 81 the coal controller will take
command Of the supply and no more
deliveries will be made, except un.
der special permits. until certain
reserve for the London district has
been accumulated. As the price Of
coal is controlled by the govern
ment there is no reason why the
dealers should hold their stores for
higher price.
Last winters coal supply problem
caused hardship to thousands. both
rich and poor. AS the trouble was
simply matter OF transportation,
the same situation can be avoided
this year by summer deliveries.

him off the track. Before he reached
the man the passenger train had

Summer Complaint

During the hot weather of the
summer months some member OF
almost every family is likely to be
troubled with an unnatural loose
ness of the bowels, and it is of the
greatest importance that this be
treated promptly, which can only
be done when the medicine is kept
at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott, Scots
vile, N. Y, states, + first used
Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoe
Remedy as much as five years ago.
At that time I had a severe attack
of summer complaint and was suf-
fering intense pain. One dose re-
lieved me. Other members or my
family have since used it with like
results. Moss Pharmacy.
