Madam, If your husband is like most
men he experts you to look after the
health of yourself and children. Coughs
and colds are the most common of the
minor ailments and are most likely to
lead to serious diseases. A. child ia much
more likely to contract diphtheria or
scarlet fever when it has a cold. It you
will inquire into the merits of the vari
ous remedies that are recommended
for coughs* and colds, you will find that
Chamberlain’s Cough Ren»edy stands
high in the estimate of people who use
it. It is prompt and effectual, pleasant
and safe to take, which are qualities
i especially to be desired when a medi-
I cine is int«pd#4 for children. For sale by

munitions of war that the Un

only helps to prolong the oppor
tunity for a number of voracious

Hurst of the New York Journal,

The Supreme courts ruling in
the Judge Peebles case suits us
all right, and it is what we have
maintained for years. When a
judge is off the bench, and he is
not holding conrt his personal
rights, his powers in the prem
ises are the same as other peo
ples. It has been an old gag
that to mention a superior court
judges name in a critical or of
fensive manner was to incur the
chance of being held for con-1
tempt of the court, we did not j
believe it. A Judges person is j
no more sacred than is that of'
any other person. No Editor
will criticise a iudge unless there
is a reason for it, unless in sojue
respect he has failed to maintain
that respect for himself that he
should. And some of these old
judicial gags have been going
around the state acting with a
perfect contempt for the ordi-
Some paper has remarked that
a tramp printer from Mebane
Leader had stopped in Hills
boro a few days past and bor
rowed two dollars and skipped
away with the money. Under
the present management of the
Leader it has never had a tramp
printer in its services, both of
the printers it is working have
money in the bank, several hun
dred dollars. Good security
might secure the loan of it, but
that is the only kind.

laiin’s Cough Remedy.

such a medicine,” write J, W. Sexson,
