Interesting Experience of an. In

No trouble Is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia'
People having II think that their nerves
are TO blame. and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicine and
spring remedies: the real seat OF tho
mischief is lost sight OF; the stomach Is
the organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach. nor
perhaps any Of the usual symptoms OF
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not IN the stomach so much
as I'm nearly every other organ; In some
cases the heart palpitates and Is IT.

A Ticklish Question.

G.. NJ. writes to The Journal "Should
you say, L made him cough So, or Il
made him cough up $5?' "
This is a ticklish question. Unfor-
tunately the slang dictionaries, even
Farmer and Henley's, do not know the
slang phrase. Nor is there any allusion
to it in the great Oxford dictionary.
Three centuries ago there was phrase
"to cough (any one) a daw, fool, nome, :"
meaning ''to make fool of," also 'to
prove oneself a fool, " but this cough"
may have been the obsolete verb cough"
or "coff," to purchase, acquire, get.
And five centuries ago ''to cough" also
meant "to utter, - ito disclose, as in
this sentence, Ito make her confess the
things testified against her, and also TO
cough out the rest.
We do not find anywhere allusion to
this modern slang. We ourselves regard
''cough up" as the proper expression,
and we use it when we are moving in
the first and gilded circles. Boston

MAKE THE MEN MARKET.
Woman Writer'S Bold Suggestion to
Help Weary Wives.

Woman Writer'S Bold Suggestion to
Help Weary Wives.
There are few things that exhaust a
woman more than a days shopping.
The average man looks upon a woman's
purchasing day" as one of pleasure,
but when he accompanies her on one of
these shopping expeditions he goes
home, after his patience has been all ex-
hausted, with different belief He
learns, too, that a woman can endure
vexations and disappointments with
much more equanimity than he can,
and he mentally VOWS never to do it
again.
The number Of miles traversed Is
really what tires one, and it is little
wonder that the woman who does the
shopping for herself and her entire fam
lily, as we'll as the marketing and the
bargaining with the butcher and bak-
er and candlestick maker" should feel
the need of rest for her tired nerves
The man of the house should always
do the marketing In the old days,
when the butler was not the stately
parsonage he is now, women were new
er troubled with the worries of house
hold purchasing, for the head of the
house did the entire buying, and
James" carried the parcels and was
not ashamed to do it.
No mother who has the care Of little
children should give the precious morn
ing hours to anything else but the
nursery, nor should she let butchers
and grocers' boys call for and deliver
orders, because there is sure to be dis
satisfaction if she does. Some wealthy
families allow their chef to take charge
of the household, and he collects large
percentage from the tradesmen, which,
of course, is added to the monthly bill.
Reputable storekeepers will not do this
kind of business, however, and the chef
patronage" is controlled entirely by a
few men. On the whole, it is much
more satisfactory for the man Of the
house to do the marketing. He will get
the best meat, have his orders promptly
attended to and save about 20 per cent
in the transaction, as we'll as the health
of his wife. Chicago Times-Herald.
