Is Disease m Punishment?
The following advertisement, published
by a prominent western patent medicine
house would indicate that they regard
disease as a punishment for sin :. . .v ;r
"Do you wish to know the quickest
way to cure a sever cold? We will tell
you. To Cure, a cold qickly, it must be
treated before the cold has become set
tled in the system. ,.This can always be
done if you choose to, as nature in her
kindness to man gives timely warning
and plainly tells you in nature's way,
that as a punishment for some indiscre
tion, you are to be afflicted with a cold
unless, you choose to ward it off by
prompt action. The first symptoms of a
cold, in most cases, is a dry, lond cough
and sneezing. The cough is soon followed
by a profuse watery expectoration and
the sneezing by a prosuse watery dis
charge from . the nose. ' In severe cases
there is a thin white coating on the
tongue. What to do? It is only necessary
to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in
double doses every hour. That will greatly
lessen the Beverity of . the . cold' and; in
most cases will effectually counteract it,
and cure what would have been a severe
cold within one or two days time. iTry it
and be convinced." Fifty cent bottles for

THE FBENCH SPOLIATION CLAIMS.
An Anecdote of Daniel Webster in' Con
nection With Them.
"I never have had more than my share
of the alcoholic headaches that have been
passed around where I have been," re
cently remarked' a member of Chicago's
leading clubs, "but I have been a heavy
loser by intemperance nevertheless. "In
fact, my family has lost about 'a quarter
of a million dollars, I believe, as the re
sult 'of the intemperate habits" of . one
man -no less a man J than the great
Daniel Web.'ter himself. The United
States government; has; ;just ordered .the
payment of ' French spoliation ' claims
amounting to 1,500,000; and $3,500,000
additional has ''been', scheduled .Jor pay
ment later; This money was originallv
paid to the United States ty the french
government tci reimburse the' owners of
certain American vessels that had been
seized bv Napoleon. The United States
government used- this money in making
tne Louisiana purchase. JNow trie gov
ernment is paying the. claims of the de
scendants of the original vessel-owners.
)ne of mv ancestors owned five vessels
that were seized, and his claim was
placed in the hands of Daniel Webster.
The immortal Daniel looked over all the
papers, and seeing that the claim was en
tirely yalid.'undertood to secure its tav
ment by congress. But at that time the
United States was tnot soTcareful.of. its
financial standing as jt now ia, and the
eloquence of the great orator proved
unavailing.,-. One 3ay, after a vain at
tempt to secure" favorable' action "upon
the claim, Mr. Webster went to his room,
"filled T1D with Hhfiral Tvf nr.na vf y1H ftra
and under the exhilerating' influences of
the same threw all the papers of the case
Into an open . grate, ' swearing " that" the
United States knew no such words as
honor or honesty and that it would be
utterly useless to waste any more time in
prosecuting tne claim, so about $250,
000 worth of "hopes weiit ' up ,Mr. Web
ster's chimney ; in plain, black smoke.
Now these French spoliation claims are

BEVIEW OF THE LOCAL MARKET.
There is an improvement in all. kinds
of business for the week ending today, ;
over the former. . '.. ,
. Real Estate There has been more
inquiry for outside property and more
activity in inside or city real estate.
The first, second and third additions to
the city are attracting some attention
and it is expected that there will " be an
active movement in those properties in
the near future. The transfers during
the week' just closing have been in ex
cess of a week ago, and our wise ones
predict a very active season in city and
country properties.
In the grain market there is nothing to
note either in sales or shipments. The
trade is very quiet, there being but a
very limited supply on hand in ware
houses and none to speak of being offered
for sale by farmers. In Chicago there
was a little flurry last Tuesday and Wed
nesday on the corners, for the purpose of
making an advance, which only resulted
in a rise of two or three points. The effort
was fruitless and had no perceptable in
fluence on the market worthy of mention
in wheat centers. The Chicago and New
York quotations are nominal as formerly
reported. May deliver at Chicago is
$1.02g. New York $1.11.

The Best Cough Medicine.
"One of my customers came in ' today
and asked for the best cough medicine I
had," say Lew Young, a prominent drng-
r"st of Newman Grove, Neb. "Of course
showed : him Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and he did not ask to see any
other. I have never yet sold a medicine
that would loosen and relieve a severe
cold so quickly as that does. I have sold
four 'dozen of it within the last sixty days
and do not know of a single case where
it failed to give the mos perfect satisfac
tion." Fifty cent ' bottles for sale by
