EDon't take any chances with a stubborn cough or cold. If neglected it may be pneu- monia tomorrow. If other remedies have failed you, do not be discouraged. Try once more. Swift's Wild Cherry Cough Balsam cures where all others fail
The Press., 1890-03-20

For the cure of the inflammation and con- gestion called "a cold in the head" there is
 more potency in Ely's Cream Balm than in anything else it is possible to prescribe. This preparation has for years past been making a brilliant success as remedy for cold in the head, catarrh and hay fever. Used in the inititial stages of these complaints Cream Balm prevents any serious development of the symptoms, while almost numberless cases are on record of aaical cures of chronic catarrh, after all other modes of treatment have failed.

Its Parker's old goat, reckon. +"
replied Mrs. Ramsey, as she gathered
the broom and started forth. "Why in
the name of sakes they keep that old
brute is more than can tell, and if I
get to him once I'll put an end to him
in short order"
And the good woman was in earnest,
too. as her determined face and flashing
eyes proclaimed.
Hold on, my dear" said Mr.. Ramsey,
You'd better not tackle that goat with
a broom, for if you do you are sure to
get the worst of it."
Worst of it or not, Riel, that goats
got to be killed. I've put up with him
and his devilment just as long as I'm
going to. He's eat up my garden,
chewed my he'd covers into shreds when
l hang them on the line, and now he's
broke my dishes The goodness only
knows what he amt eat up and de-
stroyed. and l amt going to bear with
him no longer"
''Well," said Mr.. Ramsey, Gust let
me get at him for about minute, and
Ill warrant he'll never bother you
again. Just wait a moment and lll
make that goat wish he was in Africa
Or sone other remote region"
Mr.. Ramsey having properly armed
himself with a good-sized club issued
forth to do battle with the old culprit
The goat stood in the kitchen door
1eisurely chew ing his cud and looking
as innocent and inoffensivo as baby.
Mr.. Ram sey was noted for his impe tu-
osity and want of caution, and the inn
pudent appe arance of the old goat so
enraged him that he forgot all pru-
dence and m ade drive at the brute with
club uplifted. But just at the moment
when he prepared to strike, the goat
gave quick jump forward, and strik-
ing his assallant drove him back against
the house where he dropped in heap
: Mr.. Ramsey's anger was thoroughly
aroused by this time, and he breathed
forth vengeance dire and awful, but
whenever he attempted TO rise the goat
prompts butted him down again, and
at last he :ound it to his interest to lie
still and await developments.
why don't you do something's" he
called to his wife. "Why don't you kill
the beast?"
Il can't" said she.
I: 'Can't!" he exclaimed. Swell if l
could get chance at him, I'd soon fin
fish his miserable existence"
Whatever Mrs. Ramsey thought of
her good mans threat and the prob
ability of him carrying it into execu-
ton, she wisely refrained from saying
any thing, but instead stood in the
opposite door and shook the broom and
har dress, and 'shooed" at the goat,
and ordered him away in the most
peremptory manner.
But Parker's goat retained his list

looked on all this demonstration with

Women do. Not long ago young woman
In New Jersey was married to youthful
laborer on her fathers farm. Sometime
afterward it was discovered that the hus-
band was female; the young wife refused,
however, though earnestly entreated by her
friends, to give up her chosen consort. The
strangest part Of the discovery was the fact
that the bride knew her husband was q
woman before she was led to the altar.

they love one another. There are many In

goat could say any thing:
81. Pm right here, good people, and I'll
go away when I get ready, and not be-
fore, and if that don't suit you help

Five minutes passed, and at the end
of that time, the goat, probably decid-
ing that no further attacks were going
to be made on him, leisurely walked
away in the direction of Parker's, only
stopping once to make stand'' when
Mr.. Ramsey showed some evidence of
pursuit
''That old varmint has got to die, -

places at the table. ''He's nuisance,
and if Parker don't kill him will. l
don't see what he wants of him anyway
It's all nonsense about keeping goat
around to keep diseases away from the

Anyway" said Mrs. Ramsey, Park

There are people who have an idea

they think the goats preventative vir-
tses lie, am at loss to understand.

Points to he Considered IN Selecting Emu
ployment for Children.
Some occupations are, in their nature,
dangerous to health. Persons employed
in the manufactures of white lead, for
instance, show in their pallid faces the
poisonous effects of the vapor Of lead
tinue in the work for more than ten or.
twelve years It should be said, how.
ever, that good authorities assert that
continuous milk diet will effect an elm
ination of the poison.
So, also. those whose daily work in
wolves the inhalation of much dust, es-
pecially that of iron, copper. black lead
and coal, can hardly escape harm, I'M
less they wear nasal protectors and train
themselves to keep the mouth shut.
Many of the more modern employ
ments have in them harmful tendencies.
The writing clerk is in danger of writer's
cramp-often serious infrmity. In
many cases the men tai tension of rail-
road engineers and telegraph operators
results in distressing nervous ailments.
The pastor is exposed to nervous ex-
haustion from the incessant intellectual
demand made on him within and beyond
his parish. the draught on his moral and
sympathetic susceptibilities by his care
of souls, and his visits to sick rooms and
the homes of death.
The physician suffers from irregular,
interrupted, and often insufficient sleep,
from long rides in every sort of wealth
er, as we'll as from secret anxieties over
many of his patients. Merchants suffer
from the pressure of competition, from
the complications and harassing contin-
gencies of business, and from the finan.
cial crises that so often PROSTATE in ir-
retrievable ruin the strongest and most
conservative houses.
The farmer has his peculiar anxieties,
and, at certain seasons, very. severe
pressure of work. Still, most of his
work favors health, while seasons of
pressure are followed by seasons of re-
Taxation and rest. Besides, the intro
duction of machinery has greatly short
ened the seasons of pressure and less
sened it's force.
Parents, in choosing an employment
for their children, or giving them advice
upon the subject. should study their
temperaments and inherited tendencies.
Children of consumptive parents should
seldom engage in sedentary occupa-
tons. Those whoshave inherited weak
hearts should not engage in work in
volving much severe strain. A person
of unstable nerves should not engage in
a business that makes large and con-
slant draughts on the nervous system.

But there are people who are firm in
that idea, and Barker was one Of them.
The Ramsey family consisted OF. Mr..
and Mrs. Ramsey and Lou Ramsey,
their twelve-year-old daughter. They
lived on q small farm adjoining the
the Parker homestead, and the two
houses were less than quarter Of q
mile apart.
However much Mr.. Ramsey was re-
solved on extermiuating Parker's goat,
ne had to smother his desire for the
time being, for he and Mrs. Ramsey
had arranged to drive over to the store
that day with load of apples and some
butter and eggs, and as the distance was
quite long they were compelled to start
early.
So, when breakfast was over and the
feeding" done, Mr.. Ramsey Brought
out the old mules and hitched them to
the already loaded wagon, and as soon
as Mrs. Ramsey got her marketing to-
gether she took her place up in the seat
by her husbands side, and they were
ready to go. ,
Nov, LOU" Mrs. Ramsey called back
as they drove OIL, '.be careful about
things, and don't you leave the house
to-day, and remember about that money
in the drawer"
Lou promised to remember, and, after
watching the wagon out Of sight over
the hill, she returned to The house
and for an hour or so was quite con-
tented and happy in looking at the

Ramsey brought out on special occasions,
and which was a rare treat to Lou, who
had but little to do with books or pict-
ures. But the most fascinating oocupa-
tion becomes irksome after time, and
so at last Lou tired of the picture book
and feeling lonely began to look visit
fully out across the big bluegrass past
ure toward the woods where the chill
dren went every day to gather hickory
nuts.
''Oh, DEAR" she sighed, II just know
all the boys and girls of the neighbor-
hood are down there gathering nuts,
and why can't I go? It's just horrid to
have to stay cooped up here in the
house all day."
Pretty soon there was wild burst of
laughter and hurrah, from seemingly
a dozen throats down in the woods, and
Lou exclaimed:
There, I knew they were all out
Oh, how would love to gov'
Still she remembered her mothers
words, though, and stood debating the
question of duty and inclination for
some time, but another burst of laugh
ter from the woods quite decided her,
and snatching her bonnet she pulled
the door shut after her and went flying
off over the grass to the woods.
She ran along quite close to the
hedge, but so eager was she to reach
her playmates and join in the sport of
hunting nuts, that she did not hear a

Within three or four years it was with

the information thata new Consul would

He visited Munich, and Mr.. Horst
mann, then our Consul at that point,
showed him the Sights of the city.
The conversation happened to turn on
the recent election, and Mr.. Hendricks
jokingly said:
"oh,, well, the. things over now; at
any rate, if had been elected, you see,
I wouldn't have the pleasure Of being in
Munich now, and going round with you"

immoral GLACIERS ont Of employ have
been known to i1cite idle boys to break
the windows offs exemplary citizens,
with: the view Of ,GGreating a, demand for
the services OF a <panes-taklag class; and
it is asserted Ii belously. perhaps that
! people who live in glass houses are
egged on to throw stones at each other
by newly-fedged counselors, who hope
to profit by the damage. However this
may be. it is quite certain that the pro.
portion of litigants to the population at
large is much greater now than it was
ten years ago..
10 be sure, the demand for all costly
rluxuries increases every year; but law
is 50 ruinously expensive, as a general
rale, that one would think the.s most
reckless spend-thrift would hesitate to
indulge in it. And yet, strange to say,
grave, sedate and even apparently
pious, self-denying members of society
are continually getting entangled in
SUITS cross suits and other legal meshes,
from which. in nine casos out OF ten,
there is no escape until the parties con.
cerned have been thoroughly pigeoned.
