Two Pointed Qustions Answered
What is the use of making better
article than yopr ctmpe iitor ifyOu
can not get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference In
the price the public will buy only
the better, so that while our profits
msy be much greater in the aggre-
gate.
How can you get the public to
know your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prom
inently before the public both are
certain to be tried and the public
will very quickly pass Judgment on
them and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale on
Ohamberlain's Cough Remedy. The
people have been using it for years
and have found that it can always
be depended upon. They may oc-
easionally take up with some fash

The Amenities of Life.
BY LADY BATTERSEA.

My experience of many years among
workers engaged in all manner of work
has strongly impressed on me the be-
lief that work would be better done,
with more serenity of temper and un-
der more harmonious conditions, if the
amenities of life were better considered.
In the same way, life itself, as carried
on in the home and the family, would
r-,n more easily, and would therefore
lead to happier results, if these same
amenities were regarded as ncccssarics
rather than as luXurics.
In these days women are encouraged
to take an active intere in work OF
all kinds,-in questions connected with
education, philanthropy, legislation,
medicine, nursing, and so on.
Women of all classcs,-if may Lsc
that Objectionable word, of all ages,
and of varied brain power, meet on 4
common platform, and are rpetually
coming upon one another in their many
and diverse walks of life. They are
necessarily brought very much into
prominence, and their social relation
ship with one another and with men
has naturally been much extended.
If they are capable, earnest, or brilliant
women, they feel that they rightfully
hold 4 certain power, that their words
and their opinions carry some weight.
This is but the natural result of the
devoted lives they are leading, or Of
their intellectual distinction; when they
rise to really lirst-ratc emincncc, yon
will find that they often add humility
to talent, and that they are modest
about their own achievements.
The greater the work, the greater
should be the humility, for in nine cases
out of ten the worker feels that she has
been outstrippcd by many others in
the very path she has chosen: and, if
she has generous nature, she will ad-
mire the more thorough or successful
competitor, and not spoil her humility
by envy. If this be her frame Of mind.
she will have very clear notion Of the
amenities of life: and, if she adds a Ger
tain grace or charm of manner and tact
in her relation to other workers, she
will not fail to bring about y little
