Showing the Boy Off.

The hearts of many parents have been
saddened by having their children OBJ
stinately refuse to "show off, their
mental attainments IN the presence of
visitors. 1t is always a parental delu-
sion that this display of Johnnle's or
Sally's accomplishments cannot but be a
source of infinite JOY to all beholders,
whereas the victimized visitor is simply
enduring in enforced silence to torture
forced upon him. Jenkins, a friend of
IN ne, has a son three years old, sup
posed by the Jenkins family to be an
all that. The friends of the Jenkins
family have different sentiments, which
| will not here expose because of my re-
gard for Jenkins. | called at Jenkins
house the other evening when the phe-
nomenon of the family was fairly over
flowing with smartness. He came into
the room with a whoop and yell COM
bined with hop step-and- jump move
ment that plunged him headlong into
my lap, where he lay burrowing his
head into my stomach and screaming
franticalIy.
'FThere, there" said Mrs. Jenkins,
'you didn't hurt yourself much, guess.
Stop crying and speak your new piece
for the gentleman"
81 won't"
"Why Johnnie, is that the way to
talk to mammal"
"Ya-aasl"

''No, dear, speak your piece first"
81 shantI"
''The gentleman wants to hear YOU"
The gentleman" didn't want any
thing of the kind, but he said he did,
and finally Johnnie consented to stand
up in a corner, give his head a jerk
and Begin
"Terwinkle Terwinkle, little star,
How won Ter what you are,
Up above the"
Here Johnnie suddenly breaks off and
goes racing and tearing around the
room, upsetting chairs, snatching at
table cloths and shouting like a young
Indian.

mad race is resumed.

The infant Jenkins is now standing |
on his head in a corner, kicking out his |
heels and laughing. This interesting
pastime is soon abandoned for the more |
one of prancing around
the room on his hands and feet and i'm
itating the ''woof. wool" of bear
"You're too noisy" says Mrs. Jen-
kins.
''Ain't!" briefly retorts Johnnie.
"You are, " SAYS Jenkins. Sr.
81 a-a-a-n't!' shrieks Johnnie.
''You John Henry Jenkins!'
Ire is in the fathers face and voice,
but Johnnie doesn't care for ire or any
thing else.
The result is a sort of pitched battle,
in which the combined forces of Pa and
Ma jenkins are sufficient to drag John
ME out by the heels. His mother re-

Brigham YOung's Progeny.

"Judge Baskin tells me-" says a
Washington correspondent, that
though Brigham Young left over mil
lion, his children are fast going through
it. Many of tie girls have not turned
out well, and, in his opinion, none OF
the children have the ability of their
father. l came across a curious fact IN
connection with Brigham Young the
other day, and that is that his children
acted in the Salt Lake Theatre when 1t
was first started. The Mormons are not
proud of this, and when 1 asked Mr..
Game about it one day he evaded an

We have so often seen fatal results follow
the declaration that it can be cured, that we
have unconsciously settled down in the belief
that this disease must necessarily prove fatal
1t is true that occasionally a community has
witnessed an isolated case of what may ap-
propriately be termed spontaneous recovery,
but to what combination of favorable circum-
stances this re -ult was due none have hitherto
been found able to determine.
We have now the gratifying fact to announce
that the process by which nature effects this
wonderful chan.;e is no longer mystery to
the medical profession, and that the changes
brought about in the system: under favorable
circumstances by intrinsic causes may be made
as certainty and more expeditiously by the use
of the proper remedy. In other words, nature
is initiated and assisted.
Tuberculous matter is nothing more or less
than nourishment imperfectly organized.
Now, if we can procure the organization of
this food material so that through the process
of elective affinity it may take its place in the
system, we can cure the disease. This is just
what Piso's Cure for Consumption does. 1t
arrests at once the progress of the disease by
preventing the further supply of tubercuIous
matter, for while the system is under its in
huence all nOuriShment is organized and as
simulated. 1t thus controls cough, expectora-
llOn, nlBhl-SWeatS, hectic FEVER, and all other
characteristic symptoms of Consumption.
Many physicians are now using this medi-
cine, and all write that it comes fully up to its
recommendations and makes Consumption one
of the diseases they can readily cure.
The forming stage of disease is always the
most suspicious for treatment. This fact should
induce persons to resort TO the use of SOS Cure
when the cough is first not .ced whether it hat
consumptiye diathesls for its cause or not
for this remedy cures all kinds of coughs with
unequalled facility and prcmptness. In cough.
from a simple cod, two three doses of the
medicine have been found sufficient to remove
the trouble. So in all diseases of the throat
and lungs, with symptoms Stimulating those
of Consumption, Piso's Cure is the only infal-
lble remedy.
The following letter recommending Pisos
Cure for Consumption, is fair sample of the
certificates received daily by the proprietor OF
this medicine:
