The whole setting and proceeding was enjoyable. At one precinct it was reported that Dudley Evans chal lenged over 200 voters. At other pre cincts calls were sent in to the district attorney's office for opinions on what constituted a violation of the Cor rupt Practices Act.

A cough is a danger signal as much as a fire bell. You should no more try to suppress it than to stop a fire oeu when it is ringing, tut should cure tne disease that causes the coughing. This can nearly always be done by taking Chamberlain's Cough (Remedy. Many have used it with the most beneficial results. It is especially valuable for the persistent cough that so often follows a bad cold or attack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas Beechuig, An drews. Ind., writes: "During the win ter my husband takes cold easily and coughs and coughs. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the best medicine for breaking up these, attacks and you cannot get him to take any other." Obtainable everywhere. A MOTHER'S GRATITUDE.

Thousands of children are bothered with incon tinence of urine, and inability t re tain it is oftimes called a habit. It is not always the child's fault in many cases the difficulty lies with the kidneys, and can be readily righted. A La Grande mother tells how she went about it. Mrs. Wl M. Andis, 1502 V. Ave., La Grande, says: "I have used Doan's Kidney Pills with the best of results, and have also given them to our little girl for weakness of the kidneys: She had complained a greut deal, but Doan's Kidney Pills soon strengthened her kidneys and benefited her in every way."
