Croup
“ I don't think there is a more anxious
time for parents than when their children
have croup. Without they are prepared
with Chamberlain's Cough Remedy they
must wait for the doctor and listen to the
choking, metallic cough and watch their
little one gasping for breath.
You know the great danger of creep
is the formation or a false membrane in the larynx, and until this
is expelled relief cannot be obtainr d, and the spasmodic choking
continues. Give Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in frequent doses.
It will loosen this membrane and cause the child to expel it by
vomiting.
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
‘Ctury” Ch&nitrlain
is an absolutely safe and certain remedy for croup, and if given
as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy
cough appears, it will prevent the attack."

WAR TALKS
By UNCLE DAN
dumber Three
How War Methods Have Changed
Everybody Must Help.
“Hello, Unele Dun, Jimmie and I
have been waiting for you.”
“Sorry If I have kept you long,” paid
Uncle Dun. “Tour mother has been
telling me how bashful 1 used to be.
She said if a girl spoke to me I would
blush to my hair roots. Well, I re
minded her of the time your father
iirst came to see her and the joke we
played on them, so I guess that will
hold her for a while.”
Continuing, Uncle Dan said: "You
want to talk more about the war, do
you? Well, war methods have under
gone many changes and they are still
changing. No two wars are fought
alike. In early times, the weapons were
stones, clubs, spears, bows and arrows,
<wonls, etc. In this kind of warfare,
victory was with the strong right arm.
Men of enormous size and strength
u ere the great warriors. The inven
tion of gunpowder, however, has
changed all this. It has enabled men
to kill one another at a considerable
distance, and do it wholesale. The
war, as we know It now. is a combina
tion of chemicals, machinery, mathe
matical calculations and highly trained
men. Just think of It! Airplanes,
submarines, armored tanks, or cater
pillars, poison gases, and curtains of
fire are all used for the first time in
This war; and they are destructive be
yond anything heretofore known.
“The methods followed by the kai
ser and his allies are simply devilish,
lie must answer in history to the kill
in a of thousands of innocent women
and children. He has broken every
international law and every rule of
warfare; he has bombarded hospitals
and undefended cities, sunk Red Cross
ships cm errands of mercy; he has de
stroyed cathedrals and priceless treas
ures of art that can never be replaced;
he has made slaves of Ids prisoners;
he has tried to pot us into war with
Japan; his emmissaries have blown up
our ships, burned our factories and
fired our forests. He knows no mercy
or honor. The most charitable view
to take of tliis blood-thirsty tyrant
is that he is crazy.
“One thing is certain.” continued Un
cle Dun. with great emphasis, “Our
liberty, the safety of our homes and
| our country, and the security of the
| world demand the speedy and abso
lute overthrow of t»:e kaiser and
crushing out once and forever the
reign of Prussian brutality.”
“How about the German people,”
1 said Billie.
Uncle Dan replied: “The splendid
German people were happy, thrifty,
j prosperous and contented. They have
been tricked into war and made to
suffer the tortures of the damned;
they have been cruelly and systematic
ally deceived. God grant that the real
facts may get to them, and if they do,
Lord help the kaiser!”
“Of course the allies will win,” sajd
Mrs. Graham.
“Probably so,” said Uncle Dan. ‘T.ut
! if we are to win, we mu-d go the limit.
1 We must check the awful destruction to
shipping by the German submarines,
or we may not he able to get food and
supplies to our own men.and to our al
lies; we must also put hundreds of
thousands, and perhaps millions, of
first-class soldiers In the battle line.
"Food is the first consideration.” Un
cle Dun continued. “No army can hold
out against hunger. It has been said
that food will win the war, and thi is
! largely true. Hence the importance
i of the farm in the war plans of our
country.”
Mrs. Grahnm Interrupted hr saying:
“In view of the Importance of farming,
don’t you think, Daniel, that the farm- ■
ers ought to be exempted from war
service?”
“No, a thousand times no," said Un
cle Dun, striking the table so hard to
emphasize his protest that he tipped
over a vase of flowers. “We must
have no class legislation. The duty to
serve is the common duty of all, and j
no class must be relieved of this ob- :
ligation. The question of exemption j
must be a personal one and decided by ;
the facts surrounding each case. In
no other way can we have a square :
deal, and to insure this, it is the duty |
of congress to pass immediately the
1 Chamberlain bill, or some such meas
ure, which is fair to all classes. It
would settle all these questions and
: do it fairly. Safety now and safety
hereafter demands such legislation,
and let me suggest that you and your
friends get busy with your - congress
man and senators and urge them to
prompt action.
“It is time for us to renlize that we
are not living in a fools’ paradise;
that this great country of ours cost
oceans of blood and treasure and it is
only due to the loyalty, sacrifice and
service of our forefathers that we have
a country, and it is our highest duty
to preserve it unimpaired and pa-'- it
on to posterity, no matter what the
cost may be. Our citizenship and their
ancestors came from all parts of the
world to make this country a home
and enjoy its blessings and opportu
nities; hence, in the crisis before, us,
it is the duty of everyone to stand
squarely hack of our country and be
prepared to defend the flag. Every- j
one in this crisis is either pro-Ameri
enn or pro-German. Great as the coun
try is, there is not room enough for
W) flags.”
Most Delightful Place.
Make good roads, and the country
will he the most delightful place in
the world to live.
ROYAL LINE IN A DEMOCRACY
"Roads Rule the World—Not Kings or
Congresses, Not Courts, Nor Con
stables or Soldiers."
In nn argument for good roads some
tvise man, whose name has been lost, j
made use of tlie following: “Hoads
rule the world—not kings, nor con
gresses, nor courts, nor constables,
not ships nor soldiers. The road is
the only royal line in a democracy, the
only legislature that never changes,
the only court that never sleeps, the
only army that never quits, the first
aid to the redemption of any nation,
the exodus from stagnation in any so
ciety, the call from savagery in any
tribe, the high priest of prosperity,J
after the order of Melchisedec, with
out beginning of days or end of life.
The road is umpire In every war, and
when the new map is made, it simply
pushes on Its great campaign of help,
hope, brotherhood, efficiency and
peace.”
The value of good roads may be
1 >etter understood when it is known
that the average cost to farmers of
the 1'nlted States to transport produce
to market is more than 23 cents per
ton per mile. These figures do not In
clude the cost of breakage of harness
or vehicles. The cost per ton per
mile over hard-surfaced roads Is less
than half the present average.
