"We see so many little boys and girls
about town who are weak, thin -legged and
hollow-cheeked," w;d Mr. Davenport, out
well known druggist, "it seams a shaniu to
alio- them to remain so for they will grow
up into weak, sickly and nervous men aud
wouieu. without the vitality to woik or
enjoy life.
"If." ooutinued Ms. Davenport, ' the
fathers and mothers of such children would

A Chicago Alderman Owes His Elec

Remedy.
f'l can heartily and conscientiously tpc

Hon. John Shenick, 220 So Peoria St..
Chicago. "Two years ago during a political
campaign, I cought cold after beiua over
heated, which irritated my throat and I
whs finally compelled to stop, as J cuold
pot epeak aloud. In my estrerritv a friend
advised me to use Chamboi Iain's Cough

and could not beleive my sfuses whan I

Anjnia! Immunity to J)rngs.
(Certain substances which are
deadly in tljeir effects upon men can
be taken by tho brute creation with
impurity. Horses can take large
doses o antimony, dogs of mercury,
gcata of jlobacco, mice of hemlock,
and rabbits of belladona, without in
j y. On the other hand, dogs and
cats are much more susceptible to
the influence of chloroform than
man. and are much sooner killed
by it.
