A Good Cough lledicine.
[From the Gazette, Toowoomba, Australia.]
I find Chamberlain’s Cough
Eenfedy is an excellent medioine.
I have been suffering with a se
vere cough for the last two
months, and it has effected a
cure. I have great pleasure in
recommending it.—W. 0. Wock-
ner. This is the opinion of one
of our oldest and most respected
residents, and has been voluntari
ly given in good faith that others
may try the remedy and be bene
fited as was Mr. Wockner. . This
remedy is sold by all dealers in
Perry, Warren & Lowe, Byyon.

Houser having the only roller mill

their wheat have to leave it for

In my judgment, if we had mills
sufficient there would be two bush
