GIVE CREDIr.-Thc world would
move on smooth, aud people be happi-
er if the efforts 10 please and to do
good were always properly appreci-
ated and due credit givcn. A little
praise or we'll done goes long way,
and acts as happily as the old far
mcr's grease. he found it the best
thing and used it liberaly like wise
man; wife, children, cook, chamber
maid man servant and all came for
their share and worked better for it.
The mood of application was to give
them praise when any thing is done
well, and an encouraging word or
smile whom in difficulty. There is a
word of meaning in this thing.
Grease of this kind is a lever which
lifts burdens from the brow, lightens
the heavy, heaviug heart, and by its
happy influence every thing moves
cheorfully. Practice it reader, if any
one does mot good acknowlagc
it, if you see any one trying 10 do
right encourage that one. Don't be
sparing of praise, give good share
to wife, husband, children, servants,

How TO ALLEVIATE COUGH
The London Lancet, which ought to
be a good authority, says: "Anodynes
narcotics, cough mixtures and lozen-
gcs, are practically of no good, and
but loo often increase the debility and
hasten the fatal end. The best meth
cd of easing cough is to resist it with
all the force Of will possible, until the
accumulation of phlegm becomes
greater, then there is something to
cough against, and it comes up very
much easier, aud with half the cough
ing. A great deal of hacking and
hemming and coughing in invalids is
nervous, purely nervous, or from the
force Of habit, as is shown by The
frequency when thinking about it,
and the comparative rarity when the
person is so much engaged that there
is no time to think about it, and the
attention is compelled in another d.
rection."
