Don’'t wait until the cough becomes hard, the throat inflamed and the lungs and bronchial passages congested. Avoid cough remedies that contain opiates, stupefying drugs and dan- gerous anodynes. They only quiet the syrrptoms—drug the cough into silence—but that is not curing. A weak place is left to cause trouble later. A remedy must be used to subduc the in- flammation, stimulate the secre- soothe and heal the irri- membranes and cure the ated cough to stay cured. SAd, - QTS Irisk Moss Cough Balsam is such a remedy. It enjoys the indorse- ments of many physwune, who use it in their daily practice. Sold by your druggist at 2sc and 50¢ bottle.

Heavy | divorce to May Mott-Smith Bird, artist | and one of the owners of the Mott-| | Smith estate in the Hawaiian Islands, | | from John E. Bird, who deserted her| | because her family would not let him | | handle her finances. The affidayit of | | the wife's brother, Ernest A. Mott- | | Smith, a lawyer of Honolulu and man- ager of the estate, was read. Bird is in Norwood, Massachusetts. When he | I married the heiress in Boston in 1898, |the book value of her wealth was| | $88,742 64, but the brother says that in| | reality it was only about $60,000 be-| | cause of the depréciation of securities | | held by the estate, which had not been | charged off the books. At the present | [l!me the books show her to be worth | $78,539, but the real fortune, accord-| (lng to the brother, is about $31,000, and | Mrs. Bird’s sole support is her income | from this and her earnings as a de- signer of antique jewelry in this ¢ity. | Bird was working on the Boston | Herald for $20 a week and said that his | wife caused him to lose his position. | | After that he would not accept a posi- | tion that was not in keeping with his/| pride. In consequence he did nothing but speculate with his wife’s money. ‘When the Mott-Smith heirs were pre- paring to incorporate the estate Bird opposed and said that he was going to manage his wife’s property himself. | However they incorporated and the| estate is worth more than $300,000. | WORK IN ISLANDS. In 1900 the proud husband was in- | duced to go to Honolulu and was prom- | ised a vposition as clerk and book- | keeper for the estate. Mr. Mott-Smith, | however, found it advisable to retain |his old bookkeeper and made Bird| auditor. He was also paid to write re- | ports of the plantations owned by the estate on several of the islands, but according to Mr. Mott-Smith, these r ports were of Jittle value and Bird de: voted his trips to pleasure and so- ciety. In August, 1909, says the deposluon Mrs. Bird followed her husband | islands and three days later Blrd (Old his brother-in-law that they had some differences which Mott-Smith was ask- | ed to adjudicate. He declined to in-| terfere in family troubles and selected | lawyers for Bird and his wife. No | settlement was reached, and three weeks later Bird sailed for home. Prior | to that time, Mott-Smith offered to set | him up in business, but his enterprises | came to nothing. ‘“He shrank from be- | | ginnings,” said the depondent. Refer- | ring to Bird's relations with his wife, the brother said: ‘““His affection for her bore the ear-marks of spasmodic | infatuation, rather than sincerity. His | disposition darkened her natural buoy- | Divorces were granted vesterday by Judge Graham to Anna M. Lingerfelder | from George F. Lingenfelder, a Union | {Iron Works employe, for cruelty; by | Judge Hebbard to Edith M. Christen- | sen from Peter N. Christensen, deser- tion; by Judge Sloss to Annie Maud Shelton from Robert J. Shelton, deser- tion. Judge Hebbard ordered Hippo- | lyte Pradels, a lodging-house keeper, to pay his wife, Marie Pradels, $30 a month alimony pending the trial of her | suit for divorce. DIVORCE SUITS FILED. | Actions for the legal separation of unhappy married couples were filed as follows: Frances A. Brown against| Edward J.

He was cor- dial to the representatives of the Gov- ernment and the reception, committee that were on board the Golden Gate to offer him the hospitality of not only | San Francisco, but the United States.

Across his heart Watanahe wore several dogen handsome medals. At his side was a beautiful saber, and over his left arm he carried a magnificent overcoat of heavy brown satin, gorgeously em- broidered with the Mikado's crest. As he walked down the gang plank from the Manchuria to the deck of the Golden Gate many thought him to be the Prince. On arrival at Washington-street dock the Prince was received by an immense throng of Jepanese, who saluted him were on- the| The | All| party ; | with modulated shouts of welcome.

Shortly after luncheon the Prince, with several of his suite, took a drive | tbrough the park. He dined in his own apartments. He will leave this morn- | ing at 10 o'clock for Washington. In speaking of his visit to this coun- try the Prince said: “I come here with messages of friendship from the Em- peror of Japan to the President of the United States. As the representative | of my country I shall deliver these messages to President Roosevelt. After this I shall return by way of St. Louis. I am very anxious to see your wonder- ful World’s Fair, of which I have heard so much. “I am particularly interested in arts and sciences and these I shall study with especial interest. It is twenty years since I have been in your coun- try. Already I note the marvelous changes that have taken place in your magnificent city since that time. I shall return here in time to sail for home on the Mongolla, which leaves here for the Orient on December 28. I hope to spend a few days in.your ofty at that time, when I shall try to take in all the many points of interest about here.” The Prince does not speak Englisa, but is a scholar of French.
