Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy the Best
Made.
“In my opinion Chamberlain’* Cough
Remedy is the best made for colds,” j
says Mrs. Cora Walker, of Porterville,
California. There is no doubt about its
being the best. No other is so sure
a prevention of pneumonia. No other
is so pleasant and safe to take. These
are good reasons why it should be pre
ferred to any other. The tact is that
few people are satisfied with any other
after having once used this remedy.

The Good Old Way.
A severe cold or attack of la grippe
is like a fire, the sooner you combat
it the better your chances are to over
power it. Hut few mothers in this
age are willing to do the necessary
work required to give a good old-fash
ioned reliable treatment such as
would be administered by their grand
mothers, backed by Boschee’s Ger
man Syrup, which was always liber
ally used in connection with the home
treatment of colds and is still in
greater household favor than any
known remedy. But even without the
application of the old-fashioned aids
German Syrup will cure a severe cold
in quick time. It will cure colds in
children or grown people. It relieves
the congested organs, allays the irri
tation, and effectively stops the
cough. Any child will take It. It is
invaluable in a household of children.

Large Force of Military and Police
Are Sent to the Scene—Reported
Assassination of Trspoff Unfoundad.
News from Tokio.
St. Petersburg, Jan. 18.—Early this
morning the employes of the Neva
Shipbuilding works decided to support
the strikers of the Putiloff and Fran-
co-Russian works. Subsequently 12,-
000 of the men of the Neva works in
formed their managers that they had
gone out on a general strike.
The situation is regarded as threat
ening.
The strike at the Neva works in
volves the suspension of the construc
tion of submarine boats of the protec
tor type, which was being carried out
under the supervision of an American
engineer, and also the work on two
vessels similar to those of the volun
teer fleet and several gunboats and
torpedo boats, besides the preparation
of war material urgently required for
naval and military purposes. The
completion of the gunboats and torpe
do boats had been ordered within two
months.
Large forces of military and police
have been sent to the works. It is
feared that the mene employed at the
Obukhoff steel works will join in the
movement, thus adding 20,000 to the
ranks of the strikers.

Washington. Ga., Jan. 18.—Two per ;
sons were killed and two more very
seriously hurt Tuesday as a result ol
a boiler explosion, which occurred
this morning about 10 o’clock at
Graves Mountain in Lincoln county.
The dead are:
William Martin, Jr., son of William

Willie Johnson,* negro, a saw mill

William C. Martin was badly scald
ed about the face; not seriously hurt.
Another negro, whose name is not
known, is badly burned about the body
and arm broken. He will probably
die.
Two other neroes who were stand
ing near the engine at the time of the
explosion, were blown over a rail fence
for a distance of 20 feet, but not hurt,
with the exception of slight bruises
about their bodies.
The engine and a small tool house
were completely demolished by the ex
plosion of the boiler, which was an
old one.

Several Guests Barely Escape from the

Homasassa, Fla., Jan. 18.—The Ho-
masassa inn was completely burned
Tuesday night, catching from a defec
tive flue at 9 o’clock, before the occu
pants had retired.
Among the guests were Congress
man-elect and Mrs. Gordon Lee, oi
Georgia; Mrs. Frank M. Potts, of At
lanta. and Dr. R. L. Palmer, of Atlan
ta.
All personal effects of the hotel and
the guests were saved largely through
the efforts of the members of the
Atlanta Fishing Club, whose club
house is just across the river and
whose members first saw the fire and
gave the alarm.
The inn was a three-story, fifteen
room house, built 12 years ago, and for
this season was operated by the man
agement in charge of the Lowry hotel
near by. The guests were transferred
at once to the latter hotel. The lost
inn is covered by insurance.

Say Improved Engine Will Revolution

Ogden, Utah, Jan. 18.—A new type
of engine known as the "monkey mo

revolutionize steam . locomotion on
railroads, has been successfully oper
ated on the Southern Pacific. A train
of 7,500 tons was run from Ogden to
Wadsworth, Nev., hauled by one of the
new engines.
The new type of engine was de
signed by an employe of the South
ern Pacific. All the driving mechan
ism is located on the sides of the en
gine, making it easy of access. The
steam exhausts very rapidly and there
is no back pressure. It is estimated
that the new engine will save from
25 to 40 per cent coal consumption,
being able to run 54 miles with one ton
of coal as against 25 to 28 miles un
der the present system. The standard
engines now in use can be changed to

effect from the start.
AH druggists have L for $1.00 ajar.
Ask for Tannoplline and don’t dare
take a substitute.
