CAIlO OWNERS APPLY
FOR LIMITED LIABILITY
Owners Of Sunken Ohio River Steamer
Ask Injunction Against Damage
Suits and Adjusting Commissioner.

Threats of damage suits by persons
losing freight in the sinking of the
steamer Chilo on November II caused
the Cincinnati, Pomeroy and Charles
ton Packet Company, owner Of the
boat, Tuesday to apply to the United
State Court for the benefit Of the linz
tied liability law. BY that act damages
that can be recovered are limited not
to exceed the amount realized from
salvaging the wreck. The company
says that for the Chic that amount
will be not more than $780, and for
the freight saved it will be not more
than $3.50.
The company says the sinking OF
the Chilo was due solely to the un-
usual eddy and strong current pre-
vailing at Dam S5 at the time the
boat attempted to land there to de-
liver government freight, and that the
accident was without fault or neglect
of the officers and crew Of the Chilo.
The court is asked to issue its in
junction against the bringing of dam
age suits and to name commissioner
to adjust claims growing out of the
wreck.
Considerable freight consigned to
Maysville merchants was aboard the
steamer when she sank near the New
Richmond dam.

the second floor. In a few minutes
the report of a gun was heard and
the grandfather hurried upstairs. He
found Huffman lying on the floor,

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CA. TARRH, CATARRHAL DEAF
 NECC ANn HEAD NOTSES

If you know of some one who IS troubled with Catarrhal Deafness. head noises, or ordinary catarrh, cut out this formula and hand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. In England scientists for a long time past have recognized that catarrh is a constitu- tional disease and necessarily requires constitutional treatment.
 Sprays, inhalers and nose douches are liable to irritate the delicate air passages and force the disease into the middle ear which frequently means total deafness or else the disease may be driven down the air pasSag ges towards the lungs which is equally as dangerous. The following formula which is used extensively in the damp English climate is constitutional treatment and should prove especial ly efficacious to sufferers here who live under more favorable climate conditions.
 Secure from your druggist l ounce of Parmint (double strength). Take this home and add to it IA pint of hot water and little granulated sugar: stir until dissolved. Take orc tablespoonful four times day. This l., t.olioG fEoI>>-

HolO to Make Pine
 Cough Syrup at Home
Has no equal for prompt results. Takes but q moment to prepare,
 and saves you about S2.

You know that pine is used in nearly all prescriptions and remedies for coughs; The reason is that pine contains several peculiar elements that have a remark. able effect in soothing and healing the membranes of the throat and chest. Pine is famous for this purpose,
 Pine cough syrups are com binations of pine and syrup. The "syrup" part is usually plain sugar syrup.
 To make the best pine cough remedy that money can buy. put 2H ounces of Pinex in pint bottle. and fill up with home made sugar syrup Or you can use clarified molasses, honey, or corn way, you make a full pint-more than you can buy ready made for three times the money. It Is pure. good and very pleasant-children take it eagerly.
 You can feel this take hold of a cough or cold in way that means business. The cough may be dry, hoarse and tight, or may be persistently loose from the formation of phlegm. The cause is the same-inflamed membranes-and this Pinex and Syrup, combination will stop it-usually in 24 hours or less Splendid, too, for bronchial asthma, hoarseness, or any ordinary throat ailment.
