Glass' was appointed supervisor lor
this district, liutthereareso many

missioners did not seem inclined
to allow them the amount of
material needed to repair tltein,
so ho sent in his resignation. The
court does not seem to think this

We want every mother to know that
croup con ot prevented, i nereis no
question about this : as it has been
done In thousands of cases, and you
may depend upon it that when a child
taaes me crouD it is wnouy owing- io
the negligence of its parent. True
croup never appears witbou due and
timely warning; a few hours or a day
or two before the attack, the child be
comes hoarse. This hoarseness is the
first indication of croup, and is a sure
sign that croup is to follow, unless
promptly and propel ly treated. 1 be
free use of Chamberlain' Cough
Remedy as r'Jrected with each bottle.
under the heading "To prevent creup,
w ill dispel all symptom of the dis
ease. This first sign ot coup, hoarse-
ness, may ue oyerioottea or young
inoiners or inose not laminar wnn
the disease. Under such clrcum
stances, or when not properly treated,
the hoarseness becomes more marked,
and the child shows show symptoms
of having taken cold, then a peculiar,
rrugh cough is developed. Even at
thl stftere Chamberlain' Cough Rem
edy will prevent the croup, but after
the cough has developed the croup is
liable to appear at any moment. The
proper way is to keep a bottle of this
remndy at hand, It costs but 50 cents,
and only a few doses, or at most n.w
over a third of a bottle, Is required to
dispel all svmptoms of the disease
Can you afford to risk so muck for so
utile? lucre is uot the least danger
in giving this remedy in large and
frequent doses, which are always re
quired, as it contains no injurious
substance. As proof of this fact we
refer to John L. Olson, otDes Moines,
whose lH-iiionths-oM boy diank the
entic contents of a 50 cent bottle of
Chamberlain's cough remedy without
the least injury. Certainly it made
the baby vomit very freely; but after
taking a nap he would have been glad
to have d:ank another bottle of the
remedy, as he liked it. A similar in
stance occurred neat Valley Springs,
Dakota. Mrs. Mattie Johnson's two-year-old
daughter, Ann.e, drank a full
bottle of the remedy without injury.
This remedy ha been the sole re
liance of thousands of mother for
croup, and especially is a preventive
or manv ycares, and tus never beca
known to fail. It is tlso invaluaile
for colds aud whooping-cough, ror

Mr. M. B. Guees who came from

he was an honest upright citizen,

Although the winter has been
