Iteware of Frequent Colds
A succession of colds or a protracted

catarrh, from which few persons ever
wholly recover, uive every cold the
attention it deserves ond you niay avoid
this disagreeable disease. How canyon
cure a cold? W hy not try Chamber

Advertising Value of ood Roads.
Advertising has beoome one of tbe
moat Important branches of business.
It may be termed tbe dynamo ot com
merce. It gives publicity to wnat one
has to tell and is lutended to ut'ract
purchasers. From the newsboy a bo
yellt "Special extra" iu the streets
to tbe broker who offer "gilt edged'
securities lo tbe Unanolul columns of
tbe morning paper, every one at
tempting to do business advertises,
wltb the possible exception of the far
mer.
Municipal advertising Is a recognized
division of the profession, aud there
are bureaus whiob make a specialty
of giving publicity to the adwmtaget
oflered by thli or that city lo the way
ot business opportunity, health, cul
ture,recreution, eto. ; to Induce people
to tbelr particular localities It one ot
the chief offices of boards of trade. .
At a recent meeting of tbe W'hl'.e
Mountain (N. H.) Hoard ot Trade tbe
question of good roada was discussed
from several standpoints. Among
other apenkert was O.K. Farneswortb,
advertising manager of the Hostou
and Maine Railroad, wbo took his
specialty at tbe subject ot bit remarks
and tpoke of tbe benefits of advertis
ing tor a community or a section.
Some of bit suggestions are worthy ot
earnest .consideration by the dwellers
of country districts.
"I think you wid all agree," said
the speaker, "that tbe public do not
go to the Adirondaokt oi the White
Mountaiut beoanse of the mere fact
that tbe railioads operate to tboe
points." Hotels, it wasdeolaicd, are
oeoessary to induce guests, while it is
equally true guests are essential to
tbe support of the hotels.
It baa now become a necessity to
steadily create the desire amoug the
publio to travol, to see, to visit, to
obtain recreation, rest and entertain
ment, which are all within the vaca
tion idea, wblcb Is no longer a lad,
but Is Hrmly established as one ot the
necessities among all classes," Mr.
Farnawortb asserted.; The patrons and
guests ot hotels must not be coutlucd,
however, to piazzas and door yards
wheu aeeklng reareation iu tbe coun
try. Tbe very beat advertisement es
pecially lo this motor age that can
be put forward to Induce summer vis
itors oi permanent residents la a sys

thokfd to Death
in commonly said of baliien who have
died of the croup. How umiccesBiuy
this is. No child ever hud the croup
without having a cold or cough at the
start. If you will atop the firm nyin ptom
of the col'ish with Hallard'a llorehouud
8vrup there is no danger whatever of
croup. Bold by Chas. N. Clarke.
Writes Poem oa llrother' Death
At tbe request of J. A. Engliali of
Crapper, we publish the following
poem written on the death of bis fath
er, Mr. Cbarlua English, wbo died Bt
Deer Island, Oiegon some time ago.
Ibe writer, D. ti. Kuglish, ia a broth
er of tbe deoeased.
. My Jlrolher Was Tired
He was tired O, ao very tired,
Tired, with bearing tbe burdeu of life,
He was weak; and ao very weary
But, he buy ceased now from ail strife.
He was weary with toil and oare,
He whs faiut,aud needed rest. , '
Ills life wus spent iu honest toil
lint, be'a numbered now, with tbe
blest.
He baa crossed tbe last dreadnd
river,
Tbe river, beyond wblob, no sorrow
(lows.
He ia with his friends; dwelling in
peace.
He I a frei from all of earth'a drea.ied
foes.
His llfo, faded out like the ticket in
lamp
Without a struggle; be cheerfully
festied away.
His wcxk of lite was faithfully done.
He has passed the night, aud euterod
the day.
Tbe day that is to be beautiful aud
bright;
The day, that Its sun will never set,
Ibe day tbat la never shadowed by
night.
Hut, that he la gone we can uever
forget.
For That Dull r eeling After Katin
I have used Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets lor some time, and
can testily that they have dune mu more
good than any tablets 1 have ever used.
My trouble mrh aa heavy di ll feeling

Novia Scotia. These tablets strengthen
the stomach and improve the digeftion.
They alxn regulate the liver and l-owels.
They Hre far superior to pills but rout
