A wHooprNG Cough CURE.
curious Remedy Recommended nv an
Old COlored Woman

"hoopmg cough Is rampant in a certain
heighporhoed in this city and a short time
ago husband and wife took their small
child to mountain city in the soutb with
the hope of benefiting its health The child
was coughing one morning, when an old
colored woman passed along. Hearing the
noise. she called to the mother:
Lady, does yer want to cure dat cough?
On being assured that nothing would give
more pleasure than to find something to
relieve the child the old woman continued:
We'll, 1 jest wants ter tell yer de bes
ting dat WIS ever made. | knows case I
tried 1t on two Nv my chillern, and dey has
dun gone and got well. You Jest catch a
fat toad frog dat you sees hoppin' round
IN de garden or street at night. Stew dat
frog wild rice. Den. send and git sum mares
milk. Glib desc to dat child for tree weeks
and I'll bet she's be- plum WELL I knows
what Use talkin about
An inquiry by the Washington couple re-
vealed the fact that such a remedy was
not unheard of and that ignorant white
and colored people give such a mess to their
children. Mares milk has long been spoken
of in certain circles in the south as a spe-
cihc for different troubles and an old
white man said that he had given much
milk from his mare. to colored people who
had called at his home and asked for it,
Another remedy for Whooping cough in
the south is a tea made of hornets nest
Right here in Washington, however, that
is recommended by many people as a rem
edy. On the southeast corner of Center
market are a number of old colored women
who have little stands. Some of them
nearly always have hornets nests for sale

1t is an unusual thing for man with an
annual income in the neighborhood of $50
900 to dress like tramp from choice and
sleep in the cheapest hotels or at times in
calabooses for lack of better accommoda-
tons. Yet such an individual, it Is said, is
j. Eads How. son of the late Col James
+. How, Vice president of the Wabash He
slept in the Macon (Mo.) calaboose Satur-
day night because the hotels were crowded
and his seedy appearance encouraged no
one to offer him place. He was on the
street Saturday evening talking of the re-
lglon OF the twentieth century, the burden
of his discourse being socalistic The Of
hcers apprehended him. thinking him de-
ranged. but telegra phic instructions from
st. Louis caused his prompt release. His
voice was sweet and gentle and his choice
of words and purity of accent proclaimed
him educated and refined.
He spoke again on Sunday, taking up a
collection. which he turned over to the
mayor to start religious library. He went
from Macon to Bevier where he spoke for
an hour Monday night on the same theme.
Young How is a graduate of Yale and OK
ford, and has had all the advantages of a
home of luxury. AS his name indicates,
he is one of the Eads heirs also to whom
the government pays $50, 900 annually for
the Mississippi jetties. He gets a sixth
part of this, in addition to other incomes.
He is of strong religious convictions. and
devotes all his time and talent to mission
work. and spends his income for charity and
religion.
In conversation with Mr.. Gary of Macon
he said that his conscience would not al
low him to live in ease and luxury when he
saw so much misery about him, so he has
donned his mean garb and goes about
preaching on the streets, appealing to men
to live higher life
