The profit turned into the city I treasury ? was $11,160.30. j Danger of Cold and How to Avoid Them. , . *More fatalities have their Origin/in or result from a cold than from any other cause. This fact alone should make people iii.>ie careful as there *,? no danger whatever frdm a cold when t is properly treated in the beginning. For many years Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has been recoginzed as tho most prompt and effectual medicine in use for this disease. It acts on na? ture's plan, loosens the cough, relieves the lungs, opens the secretions and aids nature in restoring the system to a healthy condition. Sold by all drug? gists. _^ ,.,^^0,... _._T Indigestion Causes Catarrh of file Stomach. For many years it has been supposed that Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactiy the opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re? peated attacks of Indigestion inflames the mucous membranes lining the stomach and exposesthe nerves of the stomach, thus caus? ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of the juices of natural digestion. This is eailed Catarrh of the Stomach. KM Dyspepsia Cure relieves all inflammation of the mucous membranes lining the stomach, protects th? nerves, and cures bad breath, sour risings, a sense of fullness after eating, indigestion, ? dyspepsia and all stomach troubles.
