COUGH proceeds from various causes, but
whatever may be its origin, it should always,
in northern lattudes receive the speedy atten-
ton of the person who is suffering under it.
BY neglect, cough, Which could have been
removed in few days, may become a disease
of very serious nature.
When cough appears never neglect it. In
the early stage, slight fever and other infam.
matory symptoms are frequently its attendants.
In this state of cold, many use heating rem.
|edies-They should never be applied during
the prevalence inaammatory action. There.
fore opium--paregoric and all preparation,
with Laudanum or opiumshould be prohibited
Cough preparations are plentifuly distributed
through our country-but many of them are
Objectionable because of the stimulants they
contain. Some of them may be very proper
and useful in chronic cough, but should not b,
tasted while an inaammatory condition prevails
they then do mischief, and hurry the person
| into consumption.
This cough syrup has no stimulant ingre
dientso 1t will be useful in all the stages o
cough while inAammatory action prevails, ane
will in any case lessen the danger Of inAamma
ton Of the lungs--and in many cases soon pro
duce complete cure.

The Stream Of Life The following beautiful
passage is from sermon preached BY BisboD
Heber to his Pensioners short time before his
departure for India, in 1919.
s'Life bears US on like the current of n miobtv
river. Our boat at first glides down the narrow
channel, through the playful murmurings of the
little brook and the windings gifts grassy border.
The trees shed their blossoms over our Young
heads; the flowers on the brink seem to OFF,
themselves to our young hands; we are happy in
hope, and we grasp eagerly at the beauties around
US; but the stream hurries on, and still our hands
are empty.
sour course in manhood is along a wider and
deeper flood, and amid objects more striking and
magnificent. We are animated by the moving
picture OF enjoyment and industry which passes
before us; we are excited by some short lived
success. or depressed and made miserable bv
equally short-iyed disappointment. But our e.
nergy and our dependence are both in vain. The
stream bears US on, and joys and our sriefs are
alike left behind us; we may be shipwrecked, but
we cannot be delay ed; whether rough or smooth.
the river hastens towards its home, till the roaring
Of the ocean is in our ears, and the tossing of his
waves is beneath our keel, and the lands lessen
from our eyes, and the floods are lifted up around
US, and the earth loses sight Of US, and we take

The Close Of Stmmer.-A period Of time is
Just drawing TO close that will be long remem.
bered in our country. summer of fear, disas-
ter and death, has passed over us-a summer
during which the very atmosphere was inhaled
with distrust, and the richest fruits rejected, and
the approach Of friends dreaded. But it is over
and, probably, with it much of the anxiety and
distress and imminent danger of the season will
pass away. We shall again hear the din and wit.
ness the hustle of business in our crowded Streets
The great danger will be that the darkness and
sorrow shall be so far forgotten, that each saluta
ny influence which may have been created by the
presence Of fearful chastisement from the hand
of the Lord will be dissiPate1, and more terrible
evil will befal US.
1t should be recollccted that we have Just been
suffering-are now sutfering-the slightest of the
three scOurges of God War, Famine and Pesti-
lence. We suffer that which was chosen by Da.
vid as the least Of the three evis-and the thought
that there yet heavier bolts in the hahd of the
Almighty, justice should STIR us up to see that the
present CT astisement has its due effect upon our
hearts.-.N Y. Messenger.

POETRY
The Longest Day.

BY WORDSWORTH.
Summer GIBBS each. that follows
Is reflux from on high,
Tending to the darksome hollows -
Where the frosts of winter lie -
He who governs the creation,
In his providence assign'd
Such gradual declination
Tot life Of human kind.
Yet we mark it not fruits redden,
Fresh flowers blow, as flowers have blown,
And the heart is 10th to deaden
Hopes that she so long hath known.
Be thou wiser, youthful maiden!
And when thy define shall come,
Let not flowers, OF boughs fruit-laden,
Hide the knowledge of thy doom.
Now, cen now, ere wrapp'd in slumber,
Fix thine eyes upon the sea
That absorbs time, space, and number;
Look towards eternity
Follow thou the flowing river,
On whose breast are thither borne w5
All deceiv'd, and each deceiver u
Through the gates of night and morn;
Through the years successive portals;
Through the bounds which many star,
Marks, not mindless Of frail mortals,
When his light returns from far.
Thus when thou with time hast travelld
Tow'rds the mighty gulf of things,
And the may stream unravell'd
With thy best imaginings:
Think, if thou on beauty leanest,
Think how pitiful that stay,
Did not virtue give the meanest
Charms superior to decay.
Duty, like a.strict preceptor.
Sometimes frowns or seems to frown;
Choose her thistle for thy sceptre,
While thy brow youths roses crown.
