Too much care cannot be ex- ercised in selecting a cough medi- cine for children. It should be pleasant to take, contain no harm ful drug and most effectual in curing their coughs and colds. Long experience has shown that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy meets these conditions. It is a favorite with many mothers.

To-MORRoW'S REPUBLICAN CON
VENTION IN MONTPELIER.

The Republican state convention,
which assemblies in Montpelier to-mor-
row to elect eight delegates and eight
alternates to the national convention
in Chicago, has some important work
cut out for IL in this presidential year
of great uncertainty. The sentiment OF
the nation is not centered on any par
ticular mani neither the Republican
nor the Democratic party has q Inquire
that can be said to be particularly out
standing. The Republican convention
and the Democratic convention meet
without any well -defined idea OF the
man who will be the nominee OF the
party; any one of half dozen men IN
either party might become the choice
OF the convention. A large number OF
the states have refused to tie the hands
OF their delegates by instructing them
as to choice; in fact, a majority OF
the delegates to the Republican con
vention win go unpledged 1t is wise
course to follow. in view of the great
uncertainty of the situation. Vermont
Republicans, tomorrow at Montpelier,
ought to heed the lesson and decline to
shackle their delegates to any man, or
even to express a preference for any
man.

Some of the candidates for president
can tell in very few words about their
campaign funds and expenditures,
chiefly for the reason that the funds
have been rather meagre and the area
of distribution correspondingly small.
1t is to be hoped that in no case will
any scandalous expenditures of money
be revealed; or rather, it is to be hoped
that no scandalous expenditure of mon
ey was made so that it should become
necessary to reveal it. There have been
too many revelations of such a nature
TO permit the American people to rest
entirely easy in their minds.
