A cheap remedy for cough and colds

will relieve and cure the more severe
and dangerous results of throat and lung
throubles. What shall you do? Go to a
warmer and more regular climate2 Yes,
if possible; if not possible for you; then
in either case take the ONLY remedy that
has been introduced in all civilized
countries with success in severe throat
and lung troubles, "Boschee's German
Syrup" Itnot only heals and stimulates
the tissues to destroy the germ disease,
but allays inflammation, causes easy
expectoration, gives a good nights rest.

Life is so short. Let us be friends. l
am very miserable; seeing you some
times would make me happy. Let us
be friends, Leone. Why refuse me? I
will never speak of love the word
shall never be mentioned. You shall
be to me like my dearest best-beloved
sister. I will be your brother, your
servant, and your friend; only give me,
for Gods dear sake, the comfort of see
ing you. Leone, be friends"
1t was one evening when she was
tired that this letter was brought to
her. She read it with weeping eyes;
life was SO hard; she found it so. She
loved her art, she lived in it, but she
was only woman, and she wanted
the comfort of human love and
friendship.
YEARLY enough she repeated the
words to herself:
''Let us be friends. AS he says, Life
is short The comfort will be small
enough, Heaven knows, but it will be
better than nothing. Yes, we will be
friends
So she answered the letter in a few
words, telling him if he really wished
what he said, she would discuss the
prudence of such a friendship with
him.
This letter fell into the hands of
Lady Marion. She looked at the fine,
beautiful, clear handwriting.
"Lance, this is from a lady," she
said.
When he took it from her his face
flushed.
''It is from a lady" she repeated.
"It is ON business he replied, cold
1y, putting the envelope aside; and, TO
his delight, Lady Marion forgot it.
He was to go and see her Tt was
wrong to be so pleased, he knew, but
he did not even try to hide his delight
over it.
When should he go? He should
count the hours-he could not wait
longer than tomorrow. Would she
be willing, or would she not? How
long the hours seemed, yet they passed,
and once more he was at the Cedars.

ROLLED HIM IN A BARREL

There's something barbaric about
lynching, as most people will agree
said the man with the broken nose,
but | can easily name two worse
things. One is rolling man around in
a barrel, and the other is a coat of tar
and feathers. In my foolish young
days arrived at a town in southern
Indiana to find the people excited over
several arrests for robbery. A family
named Black, consisting of man and
wife and a grown-up son, had been
caught and made to confess to many
thefts. Instead of putting them on
trial, the people had determined to APP
ply tar and feathers and walk EN- out
OF town. had no objections so far as
the men were concerned, but when it
came to the woman, constituted my
self her champion, and declared that
they must walk over my dead body
first. For about five minutes I was a
hero. Then about dozen men grab
bed me and hustled me into a room,
and after the Blacks had been disposed
OF, according to, program, was brouoht
out for punishment l@lenty of tar and
feathers were left, but the crowd
wanted a change, and it was decided
that I should have the barrel exercise.
They got out and unheaded a big cider
barrel, dropped me into it and replaced
the head, and then all was ready. I
was inclined to look upon the proceed
ings with contempt I had never been
rolled in a barrel, and so had no idea
of the sensations. They first kicked
it along the wide unpaved street, and
it had not rolled over more than 20
times when / was sick of my Job After
they had enjoyed themselves for a
quarter of an hour, I was praying for
death to hurry up. I dimly remember
that after they got tired of the foot
ball work in the street, they rolled the
barrel up long hill, and then let it go
kiting down. You talk of seasickness;
but there is no comparison. Aside
from the feeling of nausea, I was
Jared, jolted and bruised from head
to heels, and in one of the bumps had
my nose broken. I was unconscious
when they finally took me out, and for
week I was little better than dead
man. It was weeks and weeks before
got the revolving motion out of my
head and could walk straight, and to
this day I can't see a grindstone re-
volve without being affected by it. 1t
would have been far more merciful to
hang me UP by the neck"
''But about the tar and feathers?'
was asked
F'Well, I met the old man Black
about two years later, and he still
smelled of the tar. He told me that it
took a weeks work with soap and
water to get the stuff started, and that
spots were left which couldn't be got
off, even when rubbed with a brick.
He didn't feel the degradation so much,
but what hurt his feelings was mat he
had been obliged to put in more work
on that tar than in all his life before.
He had tried the barrel racket once,
and he thought it worse than tar, but
he had no words of sympathy for me-
On the contrary, he said if I hadn't
mixed in the three of them would prob
ably have got off with a ride on rail-
