OBSERVATIONS. [By "Doc"1 The golden-haired heroine of the novel is usually the red-headed girl | of real life. Cultivate a rugged constitution and a smooth disposition and you will get through most of this life’s annoyances. Subject for debating clubs: Which is the Bigger Patriot, the Man Who Is Always Running for Office, or the Ordinary Voter? If you knew what your friends think about the way you tell your troubles to them you would have another trouble to tell. No matter how plain a may be she never imagines her- self one-half so graceful as the ordinary man thinks he is when dancing. It must be maddening to a woman to have a husband who is never careless enough to catch cold so that she may remind him of how she warned him. When a woman acknowleges freely and frankly that she dotes! on raw onions you may conclude that she doesn’t care who knows how old she is. By the way the House of Repre- sentatives at Washington acts it looks very much as if it would be willing to make Speaker Cannon the presidential nominee of both par- ties.

UCASTRO AGAIN AT CARACAS Arrival Fellowed by Criticism of Amer- ican Officials.

J. Cal- houn, special commissioner of the United States to Venezuela, is charac- terized as unjudicial and petty and in CIPRIANO CASTRO. which the American note submitted by Minister Russell with regard to the American claims against Venezuela is called intemperate and aggressive. “We appeal to Mr. Calhonn,” the paper says, “and ask him whether the American government in an analogous case ‘would consent to interference by | Venezuela with a judgment handed down by an American court.

Seattle, Wash., April 1 —A cable dispaich to the Post-Iuleliigencer from Valdez, Alaska, says: The American automobile and crew have left on the steamer Bertha for Seattle. Following a public reception the crew started to inspect the trail. They went ten miles. Driver Schuster, when interviewed, said the Alaskans had his sympathy, as the depth of the snow and the chuck holes absolutely prohibit any chance of the automo- biles running a mile. He says he will return to Seattle and ship for Vladivostok to make up the time lost on the Alaskan trip. He will attempt to charter the seagoing tug Walcott at Orea to take the car and crew across to Siberia. 1t is doubtful if this can be done.

A GOOD NAME VERY one desires to establish for himself a good name, but it takes time to win the confidence of your fellow men. Truth and per- severance are the alternate rungs on the ladder of success, and he who reaches the top must make no false step. There are hundreds of cough medicines with all sorts of names, each claiming to be the best, but the test of time will prove whether or not they have established the right to be called the best. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has had thirty-five years of sale and use, and has cured coughs and colds under all conditions, in all countries and clim- ates, and the verdict today is that it has no equal. Careful selection of the drugs, intelligent and skillful compound- ing, the entire absence of opium, chloroform, or any other harmful ingredient, and the absolute purity of every article that goes into its composition, has built up and sus- tained its good name. These are the things you should remember, and the next time you want a cough medicine, it is worth while to see that you get Chamber- lain’s and secure the virtues which a good name implies. Every dealer who sells a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy guarantees it to give satisfaction or he will refund the money.
