You'll have a cold this winter. Maybe
you hare one now. Tour children will
suffer too. For coughs, croup, bron
chitis, grip and other winter complaints
One Minute Cough Cure never falls.
Acts promptly. It Is very , pleasant to
the taBte and perfectly harmless, C. B.
George, Winchester, Ky., writes "Our
little girl was attacked with croup late
one night and was so hoarse she could
hardly speak. We gave her a few doses
of One Minute Cough Cure. It relieved
her Immediately and she went to sleep.
When she awoke next morning she had

Great 'Railroad Combine.
New York, Not. 18. The final stage
of the greatest railroad deal In history
s entered upon today by the thcoi
pbratlon at Trenton, N. J., of the North
ern Securities Company, with a capltall
satlon of $100,000,000. . This company Is
formed as the result of negotiations
which hare been carried on for more
than a year looking toward the joint
operation and control of all the great
transcontinental railroad systems.
Twenty kings of finance banded to
gether to pun through the deal, among
whom-are J. Fierpont Morgan, Jamea J.
Hill,' John 0. Rockefeller, Jacob H.
Schlff, bead of the house of Kuhn, Iioeb
& Co ; William K. Vanderbllt, .James
Uenry Smith, Norman B, Ream, George
J. Gould, Philip D. Armour andX. B.
Harrtman. .
The significance of this action Is shown
by the fact that It brings into, alliance
three of the greatest financial groups
in the country. These are the Hlll-Moi-
gaa group, the Vanderbllt and the
Gould-Harrlman-Ruhn, Loeb 4 Co..
combination. .-
The entire plan has been a tremen
dous undertaking, but it has bean
brought to a harmonious end. 'Harmft-
oy of interest" has been extended- from
the Atlantic to the Paoifie and an armed
truue Has been converted into what
earns a lasting peace. : - .
