A man may not always stop work when he has a cold, but perhaps it would be better if he did. It takes about ten days to get completely rid of a cold under the usual treatment. That time can be much shortened by taking Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and proper Q.are of yourself, in fact, a bottle of this remedy in the house is a. mighty good investment [ during the winter and spring months. | i : I I NOTICE FINAL DISCHARGE i Notice is hereby given that I will J apply to the Hon.

On the rendition of the song the encore was s?> insistent that Mr. Coleman was forced to respond, but having no other music at hand he repeated the air only, changing the words to an original quatrain expresisve of his enthusiasm over the merits of one of the articles manufactured by his company? Dear Old Eucapiiie "?>h. How 1 need you. Dear old Kucapine. that'll II1^ III Uliu w.i\ i lint- >i/u. old medicine. May Eueapine save you. When the flu o'ortakes you Then sweet dreams'll rest you using Eueapine." Needless to say the audience responded with a roar of applause, the more enthusiastic because, owing to the imminence of another Flu epidemic. mosto f them weer using Eueapine as a protection against Influenza infection. Mr. Coleman thereby added to his reputation as an entertainer and at the same time vindicated his right to an equal celebrity as an enterprising publicity man.
