How One Doctor Successfully Treats Pneumonia. "In treating pneumonia," says Dr. W. J. Smith of Sanders, Ala., "the only remedy I use for the lungs Is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. While of course, I would treat other symp toms with different medicines, I have used this remedy many times in my medical practice and have yet failed to find a caHu where It has not con trolled the trouble. I have used It myself, as hag also my wife for coughs and colds repeatedly, and I most will ingly and cheerfully recommend It as superior to any other cough rem edy to my knowledge."

Today Is Birthday of Ell Whitney, In. color of tle Cotton Gin. Although its owner has. been a lonn tinie dead. Ell Whitney is a lianio which will last as long as tho wrld treasures the memories of Its great inventors. Today is tho 144th anniversary of the birth of the cre ator of th. cotton gin. Westburo, M:i:-s was his birthplace. He grad uated at Yale College In 1782, paying the expenses of his education partly by schoo.1 teaching and partly by me chanical labor. I'pon leaving college he determin ed to fi south, and settled In Georgia. Finding a generous patron In tho widow of Gi-n Greene, of Revolution ary fame, he abandoned his original intention of teaching, and resided on her. estate and studied law. The latent inventive genius of Whitney soon found an object for its attention. He observed that cotton i ulture at this period was limited by the slow and difficult work of sep arating the cotton from the seed by hand. Laboring under great disad vantages, Whitney set about to rem edy tills condition. After much pa tient toll and racking of the brain, he discovered the principles of the cotton gin. Reports of his success were bruited abroad, and prompted workship and steal his machine and get others made before he could se cure a patent. some lawks people to bleak into his Whitney formed a partnership with a man named Miller nnd went to Con necticut In 1793 to engage In the manufacture of cotton gins. Imme diately he was engaged In legal suits by the unscrupulous wretches who had stolen the product of his brain and the legal defense of his rights carried off all the profits and some $50,000 voted him by the state of South Carolina. In 1798 Whitney obtained a govern, ment contract for tho manufacture of firearms and was the first to affect the division of labor by which each part was made separately by skilled workmen. This Innovation was the beginning of the great American In dustrial system, under .which work men no longer make a completed ar ticle, but only a small part. Whitney made a fortune through the great saving In cost of this kind of manufacture, coupled with Ingen lus machinery of his own Invention. He established a great factory at Whltneyvllle, Conn. He died In New Haven. Conn., Jan. 8, 1825.
