Safe Medicine for Children.
“Is it safe?” is the first question
to be considered when buying cough
medicine for children. Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy has long been a favor
ite with mothers of young children,
as it contains no opium or other nar
cotic, and may be given to a child as
confidently as to an adult. It is pleas
an to take, too, which is of great
importance when a medicine must be
given to young children. This rem

cough, colds, croup. Obtainable ev

Victories Gained in Many Ciites at
April Elections.
In Nebraska nineteen towns, for
merly wet, voted out the saloons at
the April elections. The notable dry
victories were in Beatrice, Fairburn,
North Platte, McCook, Superior, Wa
hoo, Chadron and Hebron.
Wayne township, Fulton county,
Ind., voted to remain dry by a votd
of 221 to 65.
In Michigan wet and dry elections
were held in thirteen counties. Of
these two, Baraga and Clare, were
added to the dry counties. The coun
ties which voted to remain dry are
Ingham, Mecosta, Roscommon and
Wexford. Seven counties, Delta, los
co, Jackson, Lake, Manistee, Ogemaw
and Schoolcraft, will retain their sa
loous.
Wisconsin won the biggest single
victory of the states voting on the
liquor question at tills time in clos
ing 163 saloons in Supreior, the sec-j
oud largest city in the state. This
city was formerly the wettest in the
state with the most vicious and bra
zen segregated district the North
west. Menomonie also joined the
dry ranks.
Hastings, Minn., one of the hard
est points in the state to carry for
prohibition voted out its saloons for
the first time.
Over 200 saloons were voted out in
Illinois. The most important victo
ries were in the two large cities of
Moline and Waukegan, w-here sixty
three and forty-eight saloons, re
spectively, will be closed. Other
prominent towns that voted to out
law the saloons were Dixon, Lincoln,
Annawan and Odell, in which twen
ty-one more saloons will be closed.

Canada's Whitening Map.
Prohibition history is being made
rapidly In Canada. Following close
ly on the news of the magnificent
victory in Manitoba comes the report
that Premier Hearst of Ontario has
declared for province-wide prohibition
to the limit of constitutional powers,
to be approved of by the electors—
a majority vote to be decisive.
Almost simultaneously with the an
nouncement in Ontario of a prohibi
tion bill to be submitted to the elec
tors came the statement by Premier
Bowser of the province of British
Columbia, that his government agrees
to the proposal that a prohibition
measure shall be submitted to a vote
of the provincial electors at the
coming provincial election, which will
probably be field June 1, and when
a majoritty vote of the electors will
bring the new law into operation.
It will be remembered that Alber
ta, Prince Edward Island, Newfound
land and Nova Scotia (with the ex
ception of Halifax) have outlawed
the liquor traffic; that Saskatchewan
has passed a prohibition law abolish
ing all bar and club license until
after the war, the residue of the
traffic being under control f the
provincial government; that New
Brunswick has prohibition in ten
out of fifteen of its counties, and
that about two-thirds of the territo
ry of Quebec has outlawed the li
quor traffic.
Engineers on Record.
“If prohibition makes for unem
ployment and is inimical to the in
terests of the working class, why
have 70,000 members of the Locomo
tive Engineers, some of the best
trained and best desciplined trade
unionists in America, gone on rec
ord for prohibition?
"Why did the Southern Labor
Congress, composed of delegates
from fourteen Southern states, most
of them dry, at its convention last
September, refuse to call for the re
peal of the prohibition laws of the
South when requested to do so by
the United Brewery Workmen of
America?”
