One of the best magazines publish ed in the United States is The Out look. Nothing of world-wide import ance escapes it and its comments on current events are always enlighten- ' inr and helpful. Even casual reading of its papges week after it is pub lished weekly, every fourth number being a magazine number gives one a clearer understanding of the meaning of the important events of the day, a keener insight into the movements that are moulding events. During the past year it has added a new feature which makes it more attractive and in creases its educational value. It now carries weekly 8 or 10 pages of pic tures illustrating important current events. These pictures are always in teresting and helpful. The address of The Outlook is 287 Fourth Ave., New York. The subscription price is $3.00 the year. . o The Wilmington Dispatch says by i.11 means let's have a primary in the glorious sixth congressional district, hut Gentleman of.thfl Executive-comr - nuu.ee, says-. iue umyaiMr iu.a.,y lui-. is too early, it would be hurrying things; let's not have any snap judg ment. The Robesonian isn't hump shouldered about it, one way or the other, but it would just as soon second the motion' as not, since The Dispatch wants it that may. No use hurrying. By the way, what's the matter with the erstwhile bloody "sixt" anyhow? Huh? Ain't there to be no fight nor nothing? It certainly does seem strangely peaceful like and quiet for the "sixt." There is neither the voice of them that cry for being over come, nor the voice of them that shout for mastery; and if there is no change from present conditions the indica tions are that there will not be enough life in the victors after the primary is pulled off to raise the noise of them that sing.

Coughs and colds are the most com mon of the minor ailments and are most likely to lead to serious diseases. A child is much more likely to con tract diphtheria or scarlet fever when it has a cold. If you will inquire into the merits of the various remedies that are recomended for coughs and colds, you will find that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy stands high in the es timation of people who use it. It is prompt and effectual, pleasant and safe to take, which are qualities es pecially to be desired when a medicine is intended for children. For sale by all dealers.
