The Queen Seriously III.

This does not refer to the Queen Of
England, but the queen of house,
hold at Lincoln, Neb., where she
rules by common consent. I'm March
last, when six months cid, our baby
was taken down with what the
physicians called bronchitis" IAN
ordinary cold) aud was very sick for
two weeks; she seemed to be filled
deep in the chest with phlegm which
we were unable to loosen; she could
not lie down at all, but had to be held
upright else it caused her to cough Sc
-erely; the physician did not give
her any relief, although the prescrip-
tions were changed every day and
sometimes twice day; this treat
ment was continued about ten days
and we finally determined to try a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. We obtained bottle and
after giving few doses she was re-
lieved, breathing easier and throwing
rthe phlegm and getting to sleep,
getting well in few days, and we
believe we owe her life to the use of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Our
oldest girl is subject to Group and has
had several severe attacks but the
Cough Remedy has brought her out
al right with but two good doses and
we would not go over night without
q bottle in the house. We have great
faith in it." Signed, Wilbur e. Wells,

What the World Owes.

The Amateur Mechanic thinks
when man has a conviction that
the world owes him a living, the best
thing he can do is to so to work and
collect the debt. and there is no surer
way THAI by work. 1t is the magic
key to the most stubborn defenses.
Steady, persistesst, intelligent work
has surmounted more difficulties than
the brilliant sallies of genius or the
temporary spurts of men without an
object.
Many young men feel that they are
unappreciated, and that if some one
would only come forward and give
them an Impetus chance-they
would take the world by storm!
Doubtless there are many such who
languish for want of opportunity, but
the incipient genius must not want for
something to turn up. He must turn
things up himself, aud keep tnrning.
Want Of pluck has killed many an
enterprise that had all the elements
of success in it. The projectors Joined
the great ranks Of the "unapprecia-
ted" after few good strokes and fell
/ out of the race, when . little more
snap and chang on" would have
brought them into smoother sailing.
There is no battle call more stirring
than Cup, guards, and atthem" and
that must be the matto Of every
young man ywhere-=we say the
young man, because II the old has not
learnd it, it is too late for him to
Imake the knowledye!available.
Those who fancy that success de.
ponds upon luck or good fortune, Oh
anything short Of energetic, persis-
tent hard work, will bc un,lcceived II
they embark in trade, aud expect to
have business roll In ON them.
Want OF capital Is y .lFawhack, hnt
want of work il like q countermine tc
. mine, destroying the best plans and
Intentions.
The faint heart says, ''rhere 10 NC
chance; there are so inany in bust
ness already the field Is occupied. !
ETC.. In proportion to demand the
field Is no more occupied to-,iay than
1t was forty years age. and IL men
have good wares. sell them ut fair
price, deal honestly by all, aud per.
form what they promise, their future
Is certain. The world owes every
man living, and will pay the deb
Ii It 10 worked for.

his promising life. Many and sincere
