Croup-Ammen's Cough Syrup.

Ammen's Cough Syrup is not a pat
ent medicine. No patent has ever been
asked for or been obtained upon it. To
protect the public from counterfeits and
limitations the manufacturer had the la
bel registered at Washington. The Sy-
rup is from pure and costly drugs, and
cannot be sold as cheap to the dealer as
the common patent medicines that are
simply made to sell. which explains
why dishonorable druggists or dealers
try to sell you something else when as
ked for Ammen's Cough Syrup. 1t is
upon the market upon its own merits.
You can buy a sample bottle for Is cts,
upon which, at the wholesale price
the manufacturer makes nothing. Ask
to see large bottle. and read the label.

Within tho last five years surgical science
has made some wonderful improvements
III its operations, among which may DC
mentioned the grating Of human skin and
freezing with elher spray tumors to be
operated upon; but nothing that modern
surgeons have achieved is 80 calulatod to
case mankind and preserve life as the in
yen1ion OF the Esmlrche bandage for ps5;
'---S-- |.'-' osJ 'ooohV untoJ tot yot'iu uso
By all the surgeons Of Cleveland, and
almost unknown to the physicians of tho
back country. There Is used an elastic
bandage of rubber and cord, called from
the French surgeon who invented it the
E:marche bandage. which is wrapped very
tightly about tho leg or arm to be operated
upon. The wrapping begins ut the OK
trenity Of the limb and is continued to a
point about the place Of cision very tight
ly. The wrapping drives all the blood
from the limb. At the top of the bandage
IL tournlqueL Is placed, which gives heavy
pressure upon the principal artery. The
bandayc ID then removed, and the opera
ton is performed. Amputations arc made
by this plan where the knife is unBtained,
and not IL drop Of blood Is shed during the
csion. The flesh ID white, and the opera
ton may be performed with more case than
when, as formerly, the blood was squirting
forth All the blood of tho body is saved
to strengthen the patient. BY this method
hundreds or lives have been saved during
last year. After the limb has been ampu-
tatcd the blood must be allowed to flow u
little in order that the arteries may be dis
covered and bound up. In no case, by this
method, ls over an ounce of blood shed.
by the 0 u method patients often died upon
the amputatlng couch, or soon afterwards,
from excessive hemmorrhage. Like all
new methods, it is blindly rejected by old
school physlcians, who regard nothing good
save the antiquated.

Homo In Eng land and America.

at present there Is no comparison be-
| tween English and American homes.
America has not the house, tho servants,
nor the inducements that belong to tho
home life of England. In the first place,
the wooden house of the country districts
OF America Is a poor substitute for the
English cottage or villa. This will be
strikingly apparent to Americans travelling
for the first time through Great Britain.
There Is no eXaggeration of sentiment in
the tributes which poets have invariably
paid to 'the cottage homes of England"
Tho humblest peasant householder III the
country districts has often picturesque
little home, with q flower and kitchen gar
den, altogether superior to the American
villa one sees at outlying places along the
railway routes. To have house Of his
own is the chief ambition of an English
man. Except in London and other large
cities, no young man dreams Of marrying
until he has furnished house and can
literally take his wife "homc.' Even in
large cities it ls a most rare and un accus-
toned thing to sec a family dining out at
a restaurant. Home means more in Eng
land than in America, and the home life of
New York bears no comparison to that of
LoddoD, Tho lack of thoroughly settled
class OF men and women devoted to dOmes-
tic service In America has much to do with
this; 30 also, Of course, have the heavy
rents Of good houses. The artisans cottage
and the middle class house of England arc
almost unknown in the great cities of
America. Boston, Philadelphia and Chi
cago have moro to show in this direction
tl,an New York. Yet with Ihese advan-
tagcs on the siue of England, where tho
sanctity of home Is a sort of religion, we
exhibit to Americans at every street cor
ner, u sight which ID peculiarly sad and
loa,hsomc-womcn drinking at public
bars. women with babies In their arms TAX
ing gin at all hours Of the day, women
often rceling into the streets IN state Of
drunkenness. There is no deeper stain on
The moral cscutchcon Of Great Britain than
this public scandal, except it DO the open
and shameless solicitation by a crowd of
prostitutes in the West End streets from
dusk till long after midnight of every day
that comes. II would seem rs If tho high
est virtues and the lowest vices travelled
along side by side in the English metropo-
lis. Poverty and wealth meet here oftencr
face to face and exist closer together than

'sWell, l tell you it's so; ought to

Heffner, who lives on Maple street, be-
tween Chestnut and Spruce, Reading, Pa.
Il reporter had called upon Mr. Heffner
to learn the correct history of his much
talkcd-about grea. brood Of forty -one chill
dren.
Heffncr Is sparingly built, smokes a
short pipe, and makes a living in the rag
business. He is siXty-tive years old antf
has pleasant smile and cheerful greeting
for all friends. The story of the mans
married life, as related by himself, is prob
ably the most remarkable one on record.
tIc was born in Germany in 1915. Wlen
twenty five years old--in lS40-he LIAR
ricd his first wife, who lived eight years.
She became the mother of seventeen chill
drcn in that time having twins in the first
year of their marriage, The next year an
other pair Of twins were bOrn. Each sue
cceding year for -four years thereafter Mrs.
IIcffncr became tho mother of trlplcts. The
seventh year was signalized by the birth of
only one child. Mrs Hetfner died and was
laid away in the village church yard
in Germany. The widowcr had now a
family of seventeen children, the oldest
only seven years of age. Three months
thereafter a young lady took charge of tho
| children, and in course of time she be-
came the second Mrs. Hcffner. The first
wife died in February, 1848. In February,
| 1910, this second wife presented MIR. He'll
ner with a boy. On Christmas Day Of the
same year the nineteenth child was added
| to the Heffner iock. The family was now
| larger than any other in that part of the
country. Five years passed by, and Mr..
| Ilclfucr's household was increased by the
addition of ten iuore children-a pair of
twins being born every year. There was
now luIl, and for three years thereafter
only ono child was born unto them. In
1864 he came tc this country with his fam
! lily, and the last three children were born
! in America. In 1867 his wife died,
having been married nine years.
He was now tho father OF thirty.two chil-
dren, twelve of whom had died, leaving
twenty to be taken In charge by II widow
whom he married in 1868. Mrs. Heffne,
No. 8 had one child by previous mar
riagc. She became the mother of nint
