Chopping done on Wednesdays and Saturdays at the Oregon Milling & Warehouse Co's mill in Independence. Proper Treatment of Pneumo nia. Pneumonia is too dangerous a dis ease for anyone to attempt to doctor himself, although he may have tbe proper remedies at band. A physician should always be called. It should be borne in mind, however, that pneu monia always results from a cold or from an attack of the grip, and by the proper treatment of these diseases a threatened attack of pneumonia may be warded off. There is no question whatever about this, as during the thirty years and more that Chamber lain's Cough Bemedy has been used, we have yet to learn of a single case of a cold or attack of the grip having re sulted in pneumonia when this reme dy was used. It is also used by physi cians in the treatment of pneumonia with tbe best results. Dr. W. J. Smith, of Bandera, Ala., who is also a druggist, says of it: "I have been selling Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and prescribing it in my practice for the past six years. I use it In cases of pneumonia and have always gotten the best results." Bold by all druggist. a business Saturday. trip to Independence! Mr. and Mrs. Urown, E.
