Caught a I> readfnI Cold.
Marlon Kooke, manager for T. M.
Thompson* a large importer of fine
millinery at 1H58 Milwaukee Avenue,
Chicago, says: "During the Jafe
severe weather I caught a dreadful
cold which kept me awake at nigh'
and made me unfit to attend my work
during the day. One of my milliners
was taking Chamberlain's Cough
Pptnpfl v for a cnlil nf t lint firm*
which seemed to rplievp her so quickly
that I bought some for myself. It
acted like magic and I began to improve
at once. 1 am now entirely well
and feel very pleased to acknowledge
its merits." For sale by J. F. Mackey
A Co.
Round lap Hales Made Cotton
Higher.
Wherever The American Cotton
Co's. Koundlap presses were operated
last season higher prices prevailed for
cotton whether baled round or squere.
In order to get cotton, square-hale
buyers were obliged to pay more than
than the market price, and more than
cotton was selling for in neighboring
towns whers there was not a Roundlap
plant. In some cases the premium
paid by square-box ginners in competition
with Roundlap gins during the
greater part of the season was as
much as half a cent per pound above
the price ruling at other old-style
gins in the same county. The inevitable
result followed. Cotton (and the
owners' trade with it) was drawn for
long distances to Roundlap points to
the profit of the entire community,
and at the expense of towns that
did not enjoy the udvantages of round
bale competition.
The effect of such object lessons has
been a demand for Roundlap presses
for next season which will tax the
full capacity of The American Cotton
Co'a. works running day and night.

most perfect days, beautifully
representative of that first glad
Easter morn, when Christ burst
the black bonds of death and
made the day star of immortality
to rise out of the dark chambers
of an Eastern tomb and give joy
and hope to mankind, all our
churches were crowded at the
morning service. But in the
afternoon our town was alive with
native and other town's <ksporting"

always have a large number every
Sunday during the summer months
who drive here for mineral water.

REPEAL THE WAR TAX.
Why Continue to Tax the Peop'e
Millions of Dollars.
March JO, 1900, the U. S.
Treasury had on hand as shown
by the official statement a net
cash balance of over three hundred
million dollars. The government
receipts, in excess -of
all expenses for eight months
prior to April 1, wore over 62-,
500,000 dollars, or an average
of nearly $8,000,000 per month.
At this rate money is being
taken out of circulation and
concentrated in the vaults of
the U.S. Treasury in the enormous
sums of $96,000,000 per
year, and for what purpose or
usage? This concentration of
the circulating medium cannot
fail to result, very materially,
detrimental to business at large.
In his lotter to congress Jan.
10, 1900, the secretary of the
treasury said : "The revenues
are now exceeding disbursements
from month to month,
and seem likely to do so for an
indefinite time. This condition
would be a menance to the busi
noss world if assurances were
not given that this surplus
would he diverted from the
treasury vaults to public depositories
where, while secure to
the government, it would remain
available to business use."
The existence of over $300,000,000
in cash means that the
|government has not only the
required gold reserve, as per the
law just passed but also $150,000,000
over and above all expenses,"ami
still the government
is collecting taxes on checks,
deeds, mortgages, medicines,
perfumes, bills lading, telegrams,
money orders, etc., levying
upon the people an unjust,
harrsssing, oppressive tax.
What possible excuse can there
now be for Congress refusing to
repeal this unjust stamp tax
upon business documents, medicines,
toilet articles, etc? Think

The Famine in India.
The state department has made
public a report from U. S. Consul
Fee, at Bombay, which presents
startling (inures as to the ex
tent of the famine in India. Mr.
Fee says that not withstanding the
seasoti of acute distress has hardly
commenced, the returns far
exceed those recorded during the
famine three years ago. It. then
j affected only l,00h,000 persons;
i now the figure iR .'1,500,000 and
the daily expenditure is placed
| at $84,000 The famine area covers
300.000 sijiiaro miles, with a
| population of 4,000,000, and there
is a further area about 145.000

says that the application for re

consul expresses the fear that the
