A Valuable Medicine for Coo ha and Cold a In Children, "I have not the slightest hesitancy in recommending1 t namueriain Cough Bemedy to all who arc suffer ing from coughs or colds, says Chas. M. Cramer, Esq., a well known watch maker, of Colombo, - Ceylon. "It has been some two years since the City Dispensary first called my attention to this valuable medicine and I have repeatedly used it and it has always been beneficial. It has cured me quickly of all chest colds. It is especially effective for children and seldom takes more than one bot- trie to cure them of hoarseness. I have persuaded many to try this val uable medicine, and Ihey are an as well pleased as myself over the re UPPER LINE TO CONNECT WITH BOTH PHONE SYSTEMS Moline pnjers are authority-for the statement that the Crescent Tele phone company of the upper end of the county has arranged terms with the Central I'nion Telephone com pany for service with the twin-cities, and also that the country lines will le conneclcd with the system of the Union Electric Telephone & Tele graph company as soon ns it is in stalled. The Dispatch of last evening says: "An arrangement has lieen complet ed for an immediate connection with the Central Union lines and to this end the Crescent jieople yesterday changed their switchboard at East Moline to the Fisk farm at Warner to secure a more central location for the subscribers of that vicinity and to facilitate the Central Union con nection. "It is understood that the Crescent officials have accepted the Central Union's offer of a charge of five cents a minute from all parts of the upper end system for service into the tri-cities. but hote of even better fig ures is still entertained. The fees for outgoing messages will go to the Crescent svstem and those for ingo ing messages to the Central I'nion. "And just ns soon as the new inde pendent system in the tri-cities is readv for oiierntion. a connection will also lie made with the Crescent lines. The newcomers in the local field offer the Crescent people free use of their city lines in return for the same privilege on the Crescent lines terms which the countrj peo ple declare are better than the3- are able to reciprocate." THE TIME TO WOO. A little white rose in the garden blew. When the dew in the dawn lay bright; And over the grass came her lovers to woo And faithful troth to plight. But the rose bade the wind go sigh, go sigh; She flouted the vows of the butterfly; And the cricket he skipped without saying good-bye To the little white rose in the garden. But alack! the wee rose when the gloaming grew. She quaked in the twilight gray. When a moth flew out of a lime to sue And won her without delay. That bold night-moth that flew from the lime. He won the wee rose without reason or rhyme Because sly fellow he knew just the ' time To woo a white rose in the garden. Samuel Miiiturn Peek in April Smart Set. Subscribe for The Argus.
