DON'T COUGH

Stop it with SCOTS emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
A little coughing is nothing
the tickling, that makes you
cough once, is some dust; not
the least harm. You scratch
an itch, and forget it. This
cough is scratching an itch.
But the cough, that hangs on
and comes back, is the sign Of
an itch that hangs on and
comes back. There is some
thing that makes that itch.
Inflammation: a germ per-
haps; its alive; like a seed in
moist warm ground; it will
grow if you let it, especially
in children.
Wen send you little to try Hyou Ike.

profound sadness came into the beautiful eyes.
 My darling Mollie, you surely do not im- agne I am drunkard because I had one glass of wine?"
 She loved her handsome bethothed so dearly, she had always been accustomed to believe in him, and to let herself be controlled by his superior powers of argu- ment that she began to fancy that she might be wrong r-scrupulous. Any thing so as not to blame him, and the rest of the evening passed blissfully away.
 But Florence Seymour's quick eyes had noticed the passing cloud. and before re- tiring to rest that night she had managed to worm out of Mollie the cause.
 She sighed deeply on learning 1t, and managed to call up look of great distress into her strange glowing eyes.
 Ma pauvre migncnnei' she whispered softly, batting the little hand that lay in her own. You must use your influence with this handsome lover of yours. Make him break off this insidious, pernicious habit before 1t takes too great a hold upon him.
 The advice good, but the tone in which the words were uttered and the look which accompanied them seemed to con- ceal a taunt, doubt of the reality of Mol lies influence. and the girl felt sudden pang of fear.
 Florence sat long into the night turning over the pages of some learned books, in which she appeared to be deeply interest ed; nor did she go to bed until she found what she sought.
 The next day she asked if she might have the carriage to drive into the neigh boring town to make some purchases Her request was readily granted and Moliie excused herself from accompanying her. much to the companions relief.
 The coachman must have wondered at Miss Seymours affection for chemists shops that day, for into five did she go before she succeeded in obtaining all that she required.
 As she drove slowly homewards her mind was full of anticipated triumph, and the smile which curled her beautiful but cruel lips was an index to her feelings.
 That evening she skillfully contrived to have few minutes conversation with MT. Reid, and had little difficulty in making
