great Improvement in the health iof
our children by the use of Swift's
Specific. Wehad among the children
some who had scrofula-notably one
case in which it was
UNMISTAKABLY HEREDITARY.
We got some of Swift's Specific and
gave it to this case, and in a short
while it was cured sound and well.
1t was as bad case, / think, as l
ever saw, and had been under excel
lent physicians with no permanent
benefit, Wehaye been giving it to
all the children as health tonic,
We have four children and one
seamstress who, for years have suf-
fered intensely every spring with
erysipelas, and though they have
been taking Swift's Specific only in
small doses as a health tonic, they
all, withoutexception, passed through
this spring without touch Of this
complaint.

who has been with us for years, has

Pennies in the South.

Philadelphia News. NfF e-
Pennies, so long despised in the
south and west, are now demanded
by those sections so eagerly that the
Philadelphia mint, the only one
manufacturing minor coins, cannot
keep up with the demand. Three
million pennies were made at the
mint last month, but if double that
number had been produced it is prob.
able they could at once have been
placed in circulation.
With the influx of common, vulgar
copper pennies in the extravagant
west and aristocratic south there is q
drop in general prices, particularly Of
small articles. This, while benefit,
ting the buyers, will also do good to
merchants by increasing consump-
ton to a very decided extent.
Pennies are very good things, par.
ticularly if one has enough of them,
and their widespread introduction
all over the United States, though
rather late in coming, now seems as.

Post and Rail People.

Annie NJ. Libby, in July Wide Awake.
A friend of mine says there are two
sorts of people in the world-"posts"
and "rails," and a good many more
rails than posts. The meaning of
this is that most people depend on
somebody elsa father, a sister, a
husband, wife, or perhaps on a
neighbor.
Whether it is right to divide the
whole population Of the earth quite
so strictly, it is true that we all know
a good many rail-like people.
Blanche Evans tells me one of the
Rail-girls sits by her in school. Miss
Rail never had a knife of her own,
though she used sort of pencil that
continually needed sharpening; so
Blanche's pretty penknite was
borrowed until one day the Rail-girl
snapped the blade. Blanche was so
tired of lending the knife that she
was not very sorry.
Miss Rails brother works beside
Henry Brown in the Office of the
Daily Hurricane. They both set
type, and Henry's patience is sorely
tried by Master Rail. If Henry
tells him today whether the is
double in model when ed is added, he
will have forgotten tomorrow; and
Henry has to tell him whether the
semicolon comes before or after Uiz.
every time he "sets it up" The
truth is the Rail-boy doesn't try to
remember these things; he has taken
Henry for a post and expects to be
held up by him.
/ met two pretty young ladies
travelling together last summer.
One was always appealing to the
other to know if they were to change
cars at Osanto, or not, until they
reached Dunstable, or if they should
not change at all. She asked her
companion the time, though her own
watch in order; she couldn't bother
to remember" names of routes and
hotels and people, but she found it
very convenient for somebody to do
all this for her, and she never con-
cealed her surprise if her friend
forgot or neglected anything.
Being a post is often unpleasant,
but how much worse it is to be rail
The post can stand by itself-but
take it away and where is the rail
Boys and girls have this advantage
over a wooden fence-if they fear
that they are rails, they can set about
turning themselves into posts at once,
and they will find the post business
a far more delightful one.
