Will Do Still Better.

Indianapolis Journal: The Monon has for several months had a train—running each way which has made the run between Indianapolis and Chicago in four hours and forty-five and the fast trains have, according, to the number run, been late fewer times in arriving at terminals than have the slower scheduled trains, although all the trains have made an excellent record the last few months. When the improvements ■ now in progress are completed the record will be more favorable, if possible.

The Monticello Press has ceased to«xist. It was both a weekly and at daily, and an excellent paper in both forms. But there were too many papers in Monticello and the TTess discontinues for want of sufficient support. W. J. Huff, the editor, who is an experienced and able newspaper man, will, it is stated, go to Lafayette to engage In the newspaper business there. After a great smash like that of 1893 or that of 1873 there is aaothing to do but wait and let the business of the world settle itself? carefully keeping meanwhile the medicine men of finance with their feathers and rattles out of the way of the sick man. When public confidance is profoundly shaken it must re-establish itself. It has been shaken by causes, and those causes must be removed ”—Speaker Reed on the Business Situation.

The proposed action of the Argentine Republic in placing a tariff of 100 per cent, on our kerosene and farm implements, 125 per cent, on wagons, and 100 per cent, on yellow jpine is not a subject for great anxi«ety. We bought from Argentine last year over nine million dollars’ worth of goods and sold her less than six millions’ worth, and her statesmen will probably see that they are biting off their own noses if they go into a commercial fight with a country to which they sell -vastly more than they buy of her. The total value of our sales to Argentine last year of the articles she proposes to thus “freeze out” was a little over one million dollars, while tier sales to us of hides and wool amounted to about eight million She will have an interesting time if she attempts a commercial and tariff war of this sort. Of course the United States does not want to lose any of her foreign “trade, but when it is remembered that our sales of the articles in question to Argentina last year amounted to only about one one-thousand-th of our total exports, it is not a matter for serious anxiety, even if the proposed action is .taken.

Six weeks ago I suffered with a very severe cold; was almost unable to speak. My friends all advised me to consult a physician. Noticing Chamberlain’s Cough .Remedy advertised in the St. Paul Volks Zeitung I procured a bottle, and after taking it a short while was entirely well, I now most heartily recommend this remedy to anyone suffering with a cold.

My little boy, when two years of «ge, was taken very ill with bloody flux. I was advised to use Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and luckily procured part of a bottle. I carefully read the directions and gave it accordingly. He was very low, bat slowly and sureiy he began to im4>TGve, gradually recovered, and is now as stout and strong as ever. I feel sure it saved his life. I never can praise the Remedy half uts worth. lam sorry every one in the world does not know how it is, as Ido Mrs. Lina S. •Hinton, Grahamsville, Marion, Co., For sale by F. B. Meyer.
