GEO. w. JENKINS. editor of the Santa
Maria "Times," CAL, in speaking of the
various ailments OF children, said:
when my children have Group there Ia
only one patent medicine that use, and
that is Chamberlsin's Cough Remedy.
1t possesses some medical properties
that relieve the little sufferers imme-
diately. lis, in my opinion, the best
cough medicine in the market" If this
remedy is freely given as soon as the
croupy cough appears it will prevent
the attack. 1t is also sn ideal remedy
for whooping cough. There Is no dam

CHILDREN FOUND STARVING.
Discovered In an Old Cave In Ohio
without Food or Clothing.

A case of great restitution and suffering
has been brought to light by Marshal Rob't
Martin Of Loveland. and an officer of the
Humane Society. states a dispatch from
Cincinnati Some months ago the wife Of
William Lewis of Loveland poor laborer,
died leaving seven small children. When
neighbors heard of her death and entered
the home they found the little children cry
ing for food around cot Of rags, on which
the body of their dead mother lay.
The town trustees arranged to have the
childl en- taken to the County Infirmary, but
before the funeral of the mother was over
the children disappeared and could not be
found. Later they were heard of in Warren
county, but again disappeared.
Two weeks ago they We're seen near an old
log hut on the McClave farm, two miles
north of Loveland. Persons passing by the
hut heard the cries of children and, looking
in, saw a horrible sight-the children falf
clothed, their cheeks sunken from hunger
grouped around d fire on the ground, gnaw-
ing at some bones.
When Trustee Nandervort of Miami town.
ship went to look for them they had again
vanished. They returned to Hamilton
county, where they were discovered by hunt
ers. encamped in hollow west of Loveland
The Humane Society's officers found them
McClave farm. near the cabin where they
had been few days before where they were
without fire or clothing.
The children We're taken to Loveland,
where they were wrapped in blankets and
started on their way to the infirmary.
Lewis was locked up on the charge Of fail
ing to provide for his family.

PASSING OF THE GYPSY.
ROmnny Ryes Gradually Disappear
Ing From the Huunts of Men.


lug From the Hnunts of Men.
From the Troy Times
The gradual disappearance and extinction
Of that picturesque Vagabond, the genuine
simon pure gypsy, has caused much com
ment, but the reason for the dying out
of the cid race is somewhat difficult to
find. There are probably more rowing
wandering vagabonds in the world today
than ever before, but real Romany is
seldom found even in England, where he
formerly hourlshed. In this country real
gypsies were never numerous, and are to-
day less so than ever before. They are
occas ionally met with, but the bands are
either very small or composed of
horse-tradng scamps and fortune-telling
"fakirs,' who have not drop OF the
Romany blood in their veins.
In the old days the gypsy impressed him
self and his personality on the literature
and the art of the countries in which he
roamed. 1t was poor novel that did not
introduce a gypsy fortune teller, and
poor play that did not have at least one
child stolen by gypsies, while the artists
fairly reveled in studies and sketches of
gypsy maidens. But the gypsies Of today
do not indulge in any child-stealInS pro-
clivities, although they occasionally make
a bluff at telling fortunes. AS for the
children. they usually have enough or their
own not to bother their heads and risk
their liberty by stealing those of other
people.
band of gypsies which appeared in the
province of Quebec the other day actually
tried to sell their own children, arguing
that times were so poor that they were no
longer able to provide for the little ones.
So it can readily be seen that the day of
the gypsy is past. II he ever had any
usefulness he has long ago outlived it.

SCHOOL RECESSES.
The Need of Growing Child for Food
and Exercise.

The Need of Growing Child for Food
and Exercise.
From the Popular Health Magazine.
Recesses at school have been the theme
of many papers of late 1t is alleged that
children uffer from dyspepsia through lack
of time to eat their luncheons. Much de-
ponds on the age of the child. In the
primary departments recess should come
sooner than in the more advanced classes,
and it should also last longer. A young
child Just beginning school cannot stand
The strain of confinement and attention for
several hours in succession. and the rest
lessness which is so natural to the growing
10y or girl soon begins to manifest itself
if the session be too long, and yet 1t is often
the case that these very restless children
are detained during a part of recess as
Punishment.
The needs of the body of growing child
should he understood by the teacher. A
child does much better work and is benefited
physically by good long recess. One hour
between the morning and afternoon seS-
sions is certainly not long enough. This
division may give the teachers more time
in the afternoon, but it works the children
too hard, causes those who live at a dis
lance to eat hurriedly and thereby fncurs
the risk of dyspepsia.
