Chamberlain' Cough Remedy the Very Beat. "I have been using Chamber- lain's Cought Remedy and want to say it is the best cough med- icine I have ever taken , n says Geo. L. Chubb , a merchant of Harlan , Mich. There is no ques- tion about it being the best , as it will cure a cough or cold in' ' less time than any other treat- . ment. It should always be kept ready for instant use , for a cold can be cured in much less time when promptly treated. For sale by Kerr's Drug Store. tINO LONDON . A POGJ . Morb Ito View EnC1'iah Capital AN Almost Useless as . . .t Days Are Kurky. - He knew , his London well , declares - elul'es the National Mag zinc. We went forth in a fog that was of a pea . soup variety. It seemed use less to wait any longer for it to clear off. The days were all alike and were darker than twilight ever dared to be. I clung to Mul- ford's coatsleeve , for I knew if he were once to get beyond my reach I could never hope to find him again. We groped blindly among the streets , where the atmosphere was only less palpable than the houses that walled us in. At intervals - tervals we inquired where we were , for otherwise we could never have known at all. We had to feel our way carefully and take soundings . in1r8 at intervals. "Here , " said _ . _ . _ . . . - .r.-r. - - - Prentice , as wEf paused in space , ' "hcre is Temple Bar ! " I thought I saw something that might have been the 'ghost of Jln arch hewn out' for the solid fog. The top of it , though it was not lofty , was lost to view. Temple Bar , now gone forever from the place where its gates once swung in the wall of the old city. It was here her gra- cious majesty Victoria of Eng- - lund was wont to receive the keys ot the city from the hands of the > lord mayors when she drove in state 'to ' St. Paul's cathedral. We threaded Fleet street , but could not see the farther shore. "Here is hI' majesty's tower , " said Prentice , but nothing of it was visible , not one stone upon another. We crossed London bridge almost without knowing it ; the waters of the Thames , which were but condensed fog , were invisible from the parapet , and the steam ferries were pick- ing their way cautiously ; and looking very like marine monsters in a muddy aqua'rium. We crawled through the tunnel for foot traffic under the Thames , which was like a hole in the fog , and for hours carried the 'sk ' about on our shoulders ; it was a woolly , greasy 'and ill.smelling sky : 011'1' nostrils were 'clogged with cinders , like chimney flues ; and there were smudges all ' over our faces' Sometimes for a moment - ment or two we saw a spot overhead - head that was like a pale red wa- I fe'r and we knew it for the Bun , now lost to' tis. The lamps that burned all day were like glow.worms for dimness ; and 'so we explored tpe wonders of the town and saw q.s much of it as a blind man sees , but no more. - . . , . - - - - - ' - . - - - . - . , , - . , - . , , - . , . , . _ ' ; " _ R Missouri .

The imports of poultry and . l eggs into Great Britain in 1902 , ' 1903 and 1904 were valued at $31 , ' OOQOOO , 33,000,000 and $33,500 , . 000 , respectively , the small increase . crease in 1904 being attributed mainly to the enhanced home pro. duction , though partly due perhaps . haps to the hard times. As usual Russia was the largest contributor - tor of eggs-35 per cent. of the entire . tire import-and Denmark , with f 18 per cent. , was next. The United f. States does not appear l eparately ; . i In the poultryi list , however , the . United States stands fourth. ' . y' Collecting Konuments. I Collecting monuments is the queerest hobby we have yet heard u of. It is the specialty of a Penn sylvania millionaire Quaker. For 40 years he has spent time and " 7' , money hunting for tombstones , ; pedestals , headpieces , broken col. umn8 , gravestones , and monu. ments erected to commemorate I Biblical events and American his- tory. He bas them erected in i a I cemetery lot reserved for the purpose - I pose , and spends much of his leisure ' 1 ure admiring his collection. i I i . . ' 1 ; . , ' _ . , . . ,
