A tickling cough, from any cause, is
2uickly stopped by Dr. Shoop's Cough
lure. And it is so thoroughly harmless
and safe, that Dr. Shoop tells mothers
everywhere to give it without hesita
tion even to very young babes. The
wholesome green leaves and tender
stems of a lung-healing mountainous
shrub, furnish the curative properties
to Dr. Shoop's Cough Cure. It calms
the cough, and heals the sore and sensi
tive bronchial membranes. No opium,
no chloroform, nothing harsh used to
injure or suppress. Simply a resinous
plant extract, that help to heal aching
lungs. The Spaniards call this shrubs
which the Doctor uses, "The Sacred
Herb." Always demand Dr. Shoop's
Cough Cure. Griffin's Drug Store.

British bred animals, whether they
be horses, cattle, sheep or even pigs,
are superior to all others in quality and

stamp of excellence into the live stock
bred in our islands than are found in
the same breed or species In any other

First Come, Fir«t Served,
p A minister who sets his face against'
bazaars once related an incident em
phasizing his feelings on the matter.
"Once upon a time," he said, "a man
was going along a dark street when a
footpad suddenly appeared and, point
ing his pistol, began to relieve his vic
tim of his money.
"The thief, however, apparently suf
fered some pangs of remorse. 'lff
pretty rough to be gone through like
this, ain't It, sir?' he inquired.
"'Oh, that's all right, my man,' tho
'held up' one answered cheerfully. 'I
was on my way to a bazaar. You're

Modern Plays and Players.
We no longer demand that a man or
woman play a part. We insist that the
part fit the man or woman. This con
dition no doubt is largely the fault of
managers, who instead of requiring
impersonation pick performers for
their likeness to the characters to be
assumed. "Have you a father?*' one
can imagine them inquiring of a can
didate. "Yes." "Then you won't do.
rffhis man's father died 4 twenty years
before the beginning of the play."—

On Yawning.
I have come to the conclusion that If
a man yawns and you don't want to
yawn, too, the only way to prevent it
Is to blow your nose. A man of my
acquaintance boasts that he can set a
whole railway carriage full of people
yawning by merely taking time over it
himself, and I believe he can.—Fry's
