Chamberlain Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy.

This is unquestionably one of the
most successful medicines in use for
bowel complaints. A few doses of
it will cure an ordinary attack of
diarrhoea. It has been used in nine
epidemics of dysentery with perfect
success. 1t can always be depended
upon to give prompt relief in cases of
collie and cholera morbus. When re-
duced with water and sweetened it
is pleasant to take. Every family
should keep this remedy at hand.

Most surprising i'll the new eabi-

be considering half dozen we'll
known business men for the post but
the fact that Hoover, supposedly
eliminated, was i'll. that list came as
a surprise No final, decision had
been arrived at on this post by Mr..
fHarding, it is said.
From a business standpoint. the
most interesting development was the

very highly by all of the prominent

asked for the pencil with which, he
made his calculations to keep as a
souvenir. Mr.. Walton stated he was
very sorry but there was nothing left
