The highest reading of the thermometer was 72 degrees, and this was registered at 7 o'clock in the morning. After that hour a steady decline in the temperature set in, and at 8 o'clock Monday night the mercury hovered around 55 degrees, but went down as low as 33 degrees before morning causing a heavy frost to form wh ich remained on the ground Tuesday morning untile the rays from old sol caused it to vanish. During the latter part of last week it seemed as if summer-like temperatures would continue and the pesky flies and mosquitoes apparently took a new lease on life, the latter being noticeable about town in great swarms.

How to Prevent Group. It may be a surprise to you to learn that in many cases croup can be prevented. Mrs H M Johns, Elida, Ohio, relates her experience as follows: "My little boy is subject to croup. During the past winter I kept a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the house, and when he began having that croupy cough I would give him one or two doses of it and it would break the attack. I like it better for children than any other cough medicine because children take it willingly, and it is safe and reliable." Obtainable everywhere. Small Profits, My Motto.
