When NOu Have n Cold,

1t is when you have a severe cold
that you appreciate the good quail

dy. Mrs. Frank Croker, Pana, ILL.,,
writes: Our five-year-old son Paul
caught a severe cold last winter that
settled on his lungs and he had ter
rible coughing spells. We were
greatly worried about him as the
medicine we gave him did not help
him in the least. A neighbor spoke
so highly of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy that 1 got a bottle of it.
The first dose benefited him so much
that 1 continued giving it to him I'M

Regret Interference With Nature.

Australia is regretting the laws
passed some years ago ordering the
slaughter of hawks, owls, carbon
crows or other birds that prey on
young animals and birds, says Sgd
ney dispatch to the Cleveland Press.
These have now been almost wiped
out, with the result, as described by
q recent writer, that decaying bodies,
numerous on sheep farms, have been
left to be demolished by the larvae Of
blowflies, which have now increased
to such an appalling extent as to
threaten the sheep on the runs with
destruction, the animals becoming
''fiyblown" and eaten up alive by this
dangerous pest

Certain articles of diet tend to

 for RObbing Trap.

The fish trap pirates are offering watchmen at traps one cent a fish for all they will permit them to take from the traps, according to cannerymen, who are taking active measures to prevent fish piracy be ing successfully practiced in Alaskan waters.
 C. s. Harley, manager of the Ten akee Fisheries Company, who has been in Juneau for few days has taken this matter up with Food Administrator P. R. Bradley. J. T. Barron. President of the Thlinget Packing Company, also is active in behalf of the cannerymen, and he has taken the matter up with Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr, United States Marshal J. M. Tanner, and other of ficiaIs.
 Speaking of the traffic of the pi- rates, Mr Harley said:
 "The trap robbing is being done principally by men operating small boats After stealing the fish they sell them to the fisheries companies in the towns.
 "It has become so bad that sev- eral of the companies have joined forces for their own protection and established the Goeduck as pa trol. The Goeduck is speed boat and is manned with a double crew We think it will be able to alley fate the damage that is being sui, fered by the cannery men,"
