I am the mother of eight children and have had a great deal of experi ence with medicines. Last summer my little daughter had the dysentery In its worst form. We thought she would die. I tried everything I could think of, but nothing seemed to do her any good. I saw by an advertisement In our paper that Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was highly recommended and sent and got a bottle at once. It proved to bo one of the very best medicines we ever had In the house. It saved my little daughter's life. I am anxious for every mother to know what an excellent medicine It Is. Had I known It at first It would have saved me a great deal of anxiety and my little daughter much suffering. Yours truly, Mrs. George F. Burdlck, Liberty, R. I. For sale by all druggists.

What Is Done in Some of Them for the Employes. From the Boston Transcript. Tjiero have recently been compiled some very interesting statistics rela tive to the amenities existing between employers nnd employes In thirty-one of the largest retail dry goods shopj In this city. To begin with, It Is found that with but two or tnree exceptions tho working day of the sales peopla Is included In nine hours with, In most enses, an hour out for lunch. In fact, twenty-three out of the number allow nn hour for lunch every day. Two of these firms cut tho noon hour short thirty minutes on Mondays tho "bargain days." Three ur four flrmi allow forty-live minutes for luncheon, and two llrms grant but thirty min utes, but one of these allows Its em ployes one free afternoon a week the year round. The other firm which re quires Its employes to lunch in half nn hour calls nine hours and thre quartrs a day through ten months of the year. A number of the stores supply rooms to be ued ns luncheon rooms, which are equipped with hot water, gas stove c, and other appliances. One firm serves cotfee nt two cents per cup to Its employes; another gives It to them on cold days. Four firms provide food for their em ployes and sell It to them at "low prices." Overtime Is toqulred but In few cnsi, and where It Is it is paid for or supper furnished, and In some Instances both pay and supper are fur nished for overtime during tho holi day season. Most of the shops have no system of fines while others find It necessary to exact them for tardiness, extn-mo carelessness, nnd for misdi rected parcels. In granting of vacations thero Is more dlvnslty of action than In either of the above particulars; Some grant one week's leave to all employed six months and two weeks to nil em ployed one year. That is tho rule with a majority of the retail dry goods shops. There are six of the shop3 which grant no vacations and a sev enth which permits them to "salaried positions only." These vacations. It Is understood, of course, are teal that Is, tho salaries continue. And In those shops where no vacations are allowed time may be taken by the salespeople, but their wages are stopped. Almost all of the shops sell to their employes nt a discount of either 10 or 15 per cent from regular prices. One shop allows a discount of 25 per cent from regular prices. In two or three stores the services of a physician and drugs are furnished for all employes-. One shop continues "nay "often In cases of special need." One, and one only. In good Samaritan fashion, helps Its sick employes Indiscrimin ately, and continues pay to those who have been in Its employ for one year. It Is likely that If statistics thus full concerning the majority of the largest shops In this city ten or twenty years ago were obtainable, we should be amazed at the Improved conditions current today.

Count Wnldersee Is regarded by the authori ties here as an eminent soldier and it is believed that he will be satisfactory. It Is stated that his selectlori would be for a campaign of much broader scope than that In which our forces are engaged, as the present movement Is for tho relief of the ministers In Pekin, and Count Wnldersee, who Is now In Germany, cannot possibly reach China until that object has been ac complished or defeated. It Is thought by this government that it Is not nec essary to Immediately decide upon a commander for a future campaign. The matter will be taken up with President McKlnley whett he arrives In Washington next week.
