Among other things they decided on the building of a new fence near the en­ trance and new portable sheep pens. A hundred years ago a physician would give you a medicine for your heart without stopping to consider what effect it might have on the liver. Even to this good day cough and cold medi­ cines invariably bind the bowels. This is wrong. Bee's Laxative Cough Syrup with Honey and Tar acts on the bowels --drives out the cold--clears the head, relieves all coughs, cleanses and strengthens the mucous membranes of throat, chest, lnngs and bronchial tubes.

Every tittle while we hear of some one, often a child, who has stepped upon a rusty nail stuck through a board, or who has been badly cut by broken glass. Whosoever neglects to pick up any board holding a nail to menace travel­ ers, or who recklessly breaks bottles or other glass, leaving the fragments where they may become dangerous to man or beast, is guilty, and ought to be prosecuted for criminal carelessness. It's a cowardly, vicious act to endanger the life, perhaps, of others in such a manner- Children should be taught to exercise care in such matters, as they may thoughtlessly do snch a thing, but there is no excuse for snoh an act in others. Pick up pieces of boards with protruding nails, and gather up broken glass, and teach the children to do likewise.

Emery Wheeler set a new mark for the one-half mile run, winning the raoe in two minutes, 14 4-5 seconds, the old mark being two minutes and 15 seconds.

It may be a surprise to many to learn that a severe cold may be completely broken up in one or two days' time. To do this, however, prompt action is nec­ essary. The first symptoms of a cold are a loud, dry cough, a profuse watery discharge from the nose, and a tbin white coating on the tongue. When Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken every hour on the first appearance of these symptons it counteracts the efiect of a cold and restores the system to a healthy condition in a day or tiwfc For sale by G.
