ty-six years and never has fallen upon the
minister's head yet as many childish mind

FOR THE CURE OF WHooPING COUGH.

A correspondent of the New York Even
ing Poet furnishes the following receipt for
the cure Of the whoopiog cough:
"The best kind of coffee prepared as for the
table, aud give common drink to the child
as warm as can be drsnk and piece of alum
for the patient to lick as soon as it may wish.
Most children are fond of alum, and will get
all they need without being urged; but if they
dislike it, they must be made to taste of 1t
eight or ten times in the course of day. 1t
will effectuslly break up the worst case of
whoopng cough iu very short time. To
adults and children in the habit Of taking
coffee, the remedy is good for nothing.
