I was seriously afflicted with a cough for several years, and last fall had a more severe cough than ever before. I have ueed many remedies without receiving much relief, and being recommended to try a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, by a friend, who, knowing me to be a poor widow, gave it to me, I tried it with the most gratifying results. The first bottle relieved me very much and the second bottle has absolutely cured me. I have not had as good health for twenty years. I give this certificate without solicitation, simply in appreciation of the gratitude felt for the cure effected.

It Is said that towushlp filial in Wabash county have made a discovery which emasculates the new township reform law, as ifapplles to the affairs ot the district schools under their jurisdiction. The township reform act is the one that was passed by the legislature February 27, and the special act which gives the Trustee all power In the schools was passed March M.

One of the clauses of the last named statute repeals all acts in therewith, and, as the reform act was passed a week prior, it is said by the Trustee's legal advisors that all provisions of the reform law relating to the schools are invalidated and that the Trustees will manage the schools in compliance with the last law. Some of the Trustees In that county have been advised to act under the latter law in awarding all school contracts, and it is probable a test case will made there as soon as the Advisory Boards are organized.

An exchange says: If all states in the Union are like Indiana, the forthcoming census will show a decrease in the population. The enumeration of school children shows that sixty-two counties out of our ninety-two, have fewer children than they had In ISrtS, while the state as a whole, falls short about one thousand.

At this rate, in about a million years, there won't be chil-J dren enough in Indiana to gtt up game of black-man.

The gentleman was politely Informed the views were made by a Brookville firm of photographers and location given. Moral: Antagonize business people of your own town patronize the shyster from other towns. 26tl.

Bad management keeps more people In poor circumstances than any other one canse. To be successful one must look ahead and plan ahead so that when a favorable opportunity presents Itself he is ready to take advantage of it. A little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A prudent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy In the house, the shiftless fellow will wait until necessity compels it and then run his best horse going for a doctor and have a big doctor bill to pay, besides; one pays ont 25 cents, the other Is out a hundre4ollars and then won ders why his neighbor Is getting richer while he Is getting poorer For sale at King's Drug Store.
