It Happened In a Drag Store. "One day last winter a lady came to my drug store and asked for a brand of cough medicine that I did not have in stock," says Mr. C. R. Grandin the pop­ ular druggist of Ontario, N. Y. ' 'She was disappointed and wanted to know what cough preparation I could recommend I said to her that I could freely rec­ ommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and that she could take a bottle of the remedy and after giving it a fair trial if she did not find it worth the money to bring back the bottle and I would re­ fund the price paid. In the course of a day or two the lady came back in comj pany with a friend in need of a cough medicine and advised her to buy a bot­ tle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I consider that a very good recommenda­ tion for the remedy." The remedy owes its great popularity and extensive sale in a large measure to the personal rec­ ommendations of people who have been cured by its use. Ills for sale by Julia A. Story. VOLO.

The em­ peror, accompanied by his retinue, pro­ ceeds in state to the sacred field, at the four counters of which are erected four pavilions, where the seeds of wheat and other cereals are placed. Placing his left hand on the plow and holding the whip in the right hand, the emperor begins the ceremony. On the emperor finishing his round the princes go through a similiar performance.
