Beware the Cough or

Persistent coughs and colds lead to
serious trouble. You can stop them now
with Creomulsion, an emulsifed creosote
that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is
new medical discovery with two-fold ac-
ton; it soothes and heals the inAamed

Of all known drugs, creosote is recog.
nized by high medical authorities as one
Of the greatest healing agencies for per.

OF throat troubles. Creomulsion contains.
in addition to creosote, other healing ele.

FRANCE WILL TAKE CONTROL OF
The Principally OF MONACO

20 tennis courts, down between the
mountains and the rock peninsula fa-
nous players stimulate an emulation
which makes La FIESTA club favorite
rendezvous Bathing is so lengthen-
ing the season that summer has many
devotees. Into the Port Of Hercules
come the spotless yachts OF many ma
lions and, just outside, huge tourist
steamers await the return of their
guests before setting out once more
on the path Of the modern pilgrim OF
pleasure.
Few visitors to Monte Carlo have
known whether they were in the tiny
principality or in France. France did
nothing to emphasize the transition,
and the law Of competition triumphed
over politics so far as the casual Wis
itor was concerned. Monaco is today
so full of tourist palaces. commercial
hotels and pensions, that those who
like the climate, the sports and the
amusements of the place need not wait
for the return of fortune to the gam
ing rooms she formerly favored.
Life Gay Under Any Flag.
"Monte Carlo is beautiful, clean,
peaceful resort. Even in the old days
the streets were often quiet by nine.
Once the theater and ballet or opera
crowds had entered the garish portals
of the combination casino and theater,
Monte Carlo was quiet until the brief
hustle of taxis at the close of the
performance.

There are many persons in Mime
sofa who may be denied the pleasure
of hunting next fall because of their
failure to send in reports covering
their kill of game birds last season.
County auditors may refuse to issue
hunting licenses to those who neglect
this important duty.
Work of checking these reports is
now under way by the Division of
Game and Fish. Persons who have
not sent in their report should do so
at once so that the tabulation can be
as complete as possible.

DEATH TAKES JOHN
PEAURA, FINLAYSON

A Finlayson home was Saddened
and the community lost a real friend
when death took John AdOlph Peura
of that community at $3.50 p. m. Sun
day, Feb. 81. Mr.. Peura had been ill
for seven years, suffering for five
years with asthma and the past two
with pulmonary tuberculosis. In the
time that Mr.. Peura had lived in the
Finlayson community his brain as
we'll as his hands, had been busy shap-
ing a pretty farm home located one
and a half miles north of the village
into one of the pretty places in that
locality. This home he hewed out of
wild land in a period Of % years. AL
ways a thrifty farmer, a good hus-
band, father and neighbor, his men,
DRY will linger with his family and
his many associates for years to come.
His mother is still living in her
home in Finland to mourn, and his
widow, two brothers, E. ]. Peura of
FinlaysOn, and another brother of
Winton, survive and mourn with the
children, Lempi, John, and Einar, as
does an uncle, Ephraim Peura, of
Finlayson. Two children had pre-
coded him in death.
John Adolph Peura was born in
Jurva, Finland. on Nov. 4. 1877, and
came to the United States in 1902
where he settled at Worcester, Mass.
In the same year he came to Winton.
Mimi, where he resided for seven
years before coming to Pine county
and to the home where he died.
He was married in 1905 to Anna Lusa
Hoppa at WintOn. The deceased was
a member of St. Johns Finnish Luth-
eran church from which the funeral
was held Wednesday, Feb. "a, at 2
p. m. The Rev. Carl Tamminen of
Duluth, officiated and burial was
made in the Finlayson cemetery with
Paul korpi, John Kari, John Nor
back. John Mattson, Lynn Smith, and
Fred Mannelin acting as pallbearers.
