The Best Remedy for Croup.
From the Atchison, Kan , Daily Olobe
This is the season when the woman who
knows the best remedies for croup is in
demand in every neighliorhood. One of
the most terrihle things in the world is to
lie awakened ir. the middle of (tie flight b,vl
a w hoop from one of the children. The
croup renmlies are almost as sure to be
lost, incase of croup, as a revolver is sure
to be lost in ense of burglars. There
used to t an old fashioned remedy for
croup, knowa as hive syrup and toln, but
some modern mot hers i hat t hamlierlain's
Coui:h Remedy is better, and does not
cost so much. It causes the patient to
"throw up the phlegm" quicker, and
givs relief in a shorter time. Give this
remedy as soon its the croupy cough ap
pears and it will prevent the attack It
nvver fails and is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by All Druggists.

his weary limbs and brain, i.nd on pick
ing up the World Herald lie discovered
that the ballots that tie had printed were
unlawful, as the Legislature said last
winter the blanket ballot could not he
used any more; So all Ihe printer bait to
do was to go to work nnd do the thing
over, f.nd t harks to L. C. Wr right, editor
of the Sun, and W. H. Davis woo so
kindly laid aside tbir coats: And by
midnight, with two or three pasting an
cutting paper, we were aide to start the
ballots forth once more to fulfill the
wishes of the voter. There was not
much kicking bv the ottlce force other
than if reprf sent ati ve ("urn voted for
this law, that he didn't have all the

on the north by rocks mid destruction.

making of bolos and knives and reloading
of Remington cartridges.
Their amusement are cock fighting,
motile, theft and cheating. Their diet
consists of lioiled rice, stewed rice, dried

service is very impressive, especially the
clause wherein the wife is given ttie
privilege of working as much as her
husband requires. I he animal of burden

only ten days' rations may lie carried,
lint if the journey is for 1Q0 miles the
