The value OF GIycerin.

A teaspoonful Of glycerin in cupful
of hot milk or cream will at once relieve
the most violent attack of coughing.
This is simple, easily obtained and
harmless remedy. Equally simple and
quite as effective is the use of diluted
glycerin spray through an atomizer.
This is applied directly to the infamed
or irritated surfaces, and gives almost
instant relief. In attacks of influenza,
colds In the head, sore throat and other
troubles glycerin mixed with three
times its bulk OF water, boiled and
cooled, is an invaluable remedy. A lit
tie practice will enable the patient to
apply The spray, and the soothing and
cooling effect is remarkable. Mixed
with an equal quantity Of sulphurous
acid, glycerin is an almost unfailing
remedy for throat troubles of all kinds.
and, being harmless, can be used by all
people. 1t must, however, be freshly
made, as il keeps but short time.-Ds-

A western editor, who believes in
telling the truth, relates the Indian
apolis News, printed the following re-
'cent1yrlt 1:i1;.t1 'stt ,t..:..t '-'.'
s@tWillie Shortlike and Annie Bloom
ers were married at the. -------- church
Last evening. q, The church was, very
lprettily decorated with flowers and
potted plants, borrowed promiscuous-
ly from over town from people who
didn't want to lend them. The deco
rating was done under protest by
some of the members of the church,
who were asked 10 do so by the bride,
and couldn't well refuse. The ladies
are of opinion that if the couple were
so benton, having a stylish wedding
they should have been willing to have
paid some one to chase all over the
town for day getting flowers to-
gether and then taking them home
again. t..
+ i'HThe bride wore handsome Silver
stein gown (made at home), and the
groom, was decked out IN a $40 hand:
me-down suit. The ushers wore cuta-
way. coats, borrowed for the occasion.
Sallie Potts was maid of honor, and
the consensus of opinion was that she
was two TO one better than the bride.
The young couple took the morning
train for st. Louis. where. they will
spend more money in few days than
Willie can, earn in three months, =
says. that. now he's married
he's going to. settleNdown. Some of our
merchants think it would have been
hetterif. he had settled up first. The
groom gets salary of $27 a month,
which is about the allowance Annie
has been used to for pin money. We
wish, for Willie's sake, that the old
saying that il. takes no more to sup
port two than one. wasn't a lie.
."The bride sent us shoe box full
of conglomeration OF stuff supposed
to be cake. If this is sample OF
;Annie's cooking we are. sorry for VIII
lie, Our janltor's dog fell heir to the
cake, and now he's lying in the cold,
cold ground. But this wedding is none
of our funeral. If Willie and Annie
are satisfied we've got no kick COM

When women Look Their Hest.

This is the time of year when women
should look their best. Warmth is so
much more becoming than cold, except
to the very stout, and, moreover, one
can wear all sorts of light, pretty ma
terials and delicate colors. Pointed
bodies, buttoning or lacing behind,
are returning in favor, ana in these
new bodices the points are longer than
in the old. This style is particularly
suited to those who are short WASTED
and large hipped. Those who love a
touch Of scarlet will be glad to hear
that just now the shades Of red are
more fashionable than ever. Though
this is to be preemin tly muslin sea-
son, our old and tried friend zephyr is
much valued. 1t washes SO well and
looks so fresh that girl cannot go far
