Ho* to Cure 1 Coll. • Be as careful as you can you will occasionally take cold, and when you do, get a medicine of known reliability, one that has an estab lished reputation and that is certain to effect a quick cure. Such a. medicine is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It has gained a world wide reputation by its remarkable cures of this most common ailment. • and can always be depended upon. It acts 011 nature's plan, relieves the lungs, aids expectoration, opens the secretions and aids nature iu re>toring the system to a "healthy condition. During the many years in which it lias been in general use we have yet to learn of a single case of cold or attack of the grip having resulted in pneumonia when this remedy was used, which shows conclusively that it is a certain pre ventive of that dangerous disease. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy contains no opi'ini or other narcotic and may lie given as confidently to a babv as to an adult. For sale by 4 All Druggists and Dealers in 4>at . ent Medicine. It is wonderful how much one noble nature may do toward mak ing it easier for all in a community to live sweetly by the warm tides of its own lovingness, changing the atmosphere of a whole circle.—J. R. Miller. 1 Converted by Medicine. A woman missionary who was also a doctor, had a curious experience In Burma, where upon her arrival site found a village commuuity dying off 'like flies with cholera. She made a house to house inspection, administer ed a specific and, hav' „ broken the back of the malady, left behind iter several bottles of the medicine to be used "during her absence. Upon her return the head man cheered her heart by the greeting: "Teache.r, we have -come over to your side. The medicine ». did us so much good that we have ac cepted your God." He led her to his house and Into the apartment sacred to his worship. There, arrayed upon the shelf, were the medicine bottles, and he, with all his household, instant ly lK>wed down and prayed to them •with thankful and contrite hearts.— Dundee Advertiser. Pole Holes In Quicksand. Pole holes may be dug In quicksand by using a barrel with both heads re moved. The barrel Is set where the hole is to be made and the excavation done from Inside the barrel, allowing It to sink as the hole Is dug, says the Electric Traction Weekly. The sides ■of the hole are thus sheathed, and bj means of a hand puuip the water cau l»e kept out. If the quicksand occurs for a depth greater than the height of one barrel a second barrel can IN placed on top of the first. This second barrel should be a little larger than the first, so It will go down over the lower one part way. The pole must 1* raised In such a hole as soon as the hole Is dug. He Proved It. - Bob burst into the honse in a state of blgh excitement Ills hands and cloth ing were smeared with a liberal amount , Of sticky substance, and his face wore a glow of triumphant satisfaction. "I nay, mother.' those new pfctfjple - across the road dou't know much!" he exclaimed. "They've got a notice on their frout door that says 'We* Paint." " "And you've lieen getting into It! You ought to be ashamed of yourself!" said his mother severely. "That notice was put up to warn ]>eople to keep away from it." « "Yes, I IfUpw." persisted Bob, with the enthusiasm of a. rightly rewarded Investigator. "But It wasn't paint, and Improved It It's only varnish!" i • " HOLES IN GLASS. They Are Tee Tiny to Bee. but Air Can Work Through Them. Ordinary tumblers will hold Water because tbe globules of water are too big to squeeze through the glass. Itut Class Is fuH of holes as a spouge. and air blows right through it because, the Specks of air are smaller than the holes. Put a bell Into a big globe of glass, seal up the vessel, pump out all the sir, then ring the bell Inside, and you bear nothing. There is not air enough lu the globe to carry a sound. But lay tbe globe aside for a month or so. and no matter how carefully you have sealed up tbe neck, you will find tha, you theu cau bear tbe beil when you ring It. Air has got into that globe Enough anyway to carry a sound hi leaked In through tbe substance of tin glass. The ordinary incandescent lamp is v.

We can make plenty of vessels t hold water, but nothing has been made which will hold air without auy leak age. The air sneaks in through l»«»!e> whieh are too small for the huiuau mind to imagine. ■» In fact, everything leaks.—Loudon Answers. THE END OF THE WORLD. A Theory That It Will Come by Fire Caused by Friction. As to the length of time the earth Ls likely to last, the calculations are thai 1 ; It will not cease to be active for a good many millions of years, such activity 1 not, however, necessarily supposing j that life as we kuow It now will al I ways lie possible, tbe eveutuality of a i universal ice age being always a cou tlugency that may occur again iu the history of the globe. Jt is interesting to note that in this connection a Swedish mystic called Strouiberg has declared that the world would never know another Ice age, bui that It was now running out its course 1 to the end. Its existence, he declared. ' would endure as lon# as tire burned in the earth's bowels—that is, until the { whole mass shall have become solldl i j fled. The Internal flies, he said, pro , vldod the link which maintained the earth In the sun's sphere of attraction When this attraction shall fall, the earth, according to the Swede, will 1 cease to revolve and will fall away ' only to disappear by lire caused by friction, thus verifying the Biblical prophecy. As. however, the process >f cooling down entirely yplll i'ake some ; billions of years, tbe nervous person , will note that there Is really no iiutue dlate cause for alarm. New York World. Pepsin, Saliva and Gaetrio Juice. Pepsin, (he principal agent In the di gestion of food, is « powerful solvent stored up In tbe walls of the stomach and only poured forth when lis assist ance Is needed. When pure, this fluid is perfectly neutral, neither acid nor alkaline, ami appears to be unable to ' exert any artlou without the presence of an acid. Such acid Is supplied in the gastric Juice, secreted by tlw'gas trie follicles covering the coating of the stomach. The saliva is merely for tbe purpose of moistening the food. , thus preparing it for the action of the | pepslu aud gastric fluids.—New York American ■ "ii—p.i.i iM ■- i *am e*> r:. V Shawls.

Once that genial comedian Pete- Dailey consulted an. oculist about h! eyes. His nose was smajl, and In couldn't keep on the glasses wit I which the oculist was trying to fit him. "You are not used to glasses Mr. Dailey," said tbe oculist. "Oh yes, I am." replied Mr. Dall«y, "but not so high up!" Wearing Apparel. Customs Officer (to traveler from the continent)—l thought you raid, madam, there was nothing tun wearing apparel in your trunk. What about these three "bottles of cogoac?

There Is not ao much fun to be g*>t out of the inquisitive man. He Is gen erally a mere auisauce, but occasion ally be furnishes food for merriment. A certain down east storekeeper was ao offensively inquisitive that U wns determined to teach bira a lesson. Among his failings was a desire to ex amine the conteuts of every package which his friends deposited In his atore for safe keeping. He must see the in side If he had to break the package open. One day a man left a stout leather bug, asking that no one disturb It. The proprietor walked around rest lessly for awhile and theu near the bag. Apparently no one wa* looking.

He shot out o£ the store at a pace that would have done credit to a sprinter. They say that for a year afterward he hurdly looked into his own sugar barrel without asking per mUsiou.—St. Louis Ulobe-Democrat. STILL LOYAL Human Encyclopedia Not Influenced by Display of Bunting. One Fourth of July night in London the Empire Music ball advertised spe cial attractkNts to American visitors. Ail over the auditorium the union jack and the stars aud stripes iufolded one another, and at the Interludes were heard "Yankee Doodle" and "Hail. Columbia." while a quartet sang "Down Upon the Swauee Itiver." Tben came the turn of the human encyclopedia, who advauced to the front of the stage and auuouuced him self ready to answer, sight unseen, all questions the audience might pro pound. A volley of queries was fired at him, aud the encyclopedia breathlessly told the distance of the earth from Mars, the number of bones in the humau skeleton, of square miles iu the Ilrltlsh empire and other equally lmportuut facts. There was a brief pause. In which au American stood, up. "What great event took place July 4, ITTti'i" he pro pounded In a loud, glad voice. The human encyclopedia glared at him.

The gull, according to abundaut anil competent testimony, will carry shell flsh to a considerable height, drop them on the rocks or hard ground and repeal the experiment until (t gets the soft meat.—Chicago Tribune Origin of Pommes Souffles. Speaking of the Mrst railway iu France, a French Journal poiuts out that it was connection with this event that the virtues of pommes souf flees were discovered. A French chef was traveling on the new line from I'aris to St. Germain anil was prepar ing iu the truiu the banquet which was to celebrate the opening.

In some of the cantons of Switzer land ir method resembling tha referen dum has been in practice since the six teenth century. The present form was adopted in the canton of St. Gallen in 1800.
