Worse than Firearms.

The editor of an Omaha paper, in commenting on several cases in that city where, children died from the effects of taking congh syrup containing morphia, remarks that opiates, poisons, and narcotics are more dangerous than firearms. Mothers should note this, and, furthermore, that different Boards of Health, after making carefnl analyses, have certified that the only purely vegetable preparation of this kind, and one that is in every way harmless, prompt, and effective, is Red Star Cough Cure. Mayor Latrobe, of Baltimore, and the Commissioner of Health have publicly indorsed this valuable discovery. v In India a husband can ent his wife’s ears off if he thinks proper. But he cannot touch her tongue.
