FOR THE BABIES.

There is no better medicine for the babes than Cha Iii berlain's Cough Remedy. Its pleasant taste and prompt and effectual cures make it favorite with mothers and small children. It quickly cures their coughs and colds, preventing pneumonia or other serious consequences. It also
 cures croup and has been used in tens of thousands of cases without a single failure so far as we have been able to learn. 1t not only cures croup, but when given as soon as the croupy cough appears, will pre- vent the attack. In eases of whoop- ing cough it llquiffes the tough mucus, making it eaiser to expecto- rate, and lessens the severity and frequency of the paroxysms ofcough- Ing, thus depriving that disease of all dangerous consequences For sale by W.

OBEDIENCE OF AN ELEPHANT.
Listening for That Voice That 1t Would
N>v~r Haar A~uSn

Listening for That Voice That 1t Would
Never Hear Again.
An old elephant taken into battle on
the plains of India was a standard
bearer and carried on his huge back
the royal ensign, the rallying point OF
the Poona host, says the New York
Press. At the beginning OF the fight
he lost his master. The "mahout" or
driver had just given the word to halt.
when he received a fatal wound and
fell to the ground, where he lay under
Q heap Of slain. The obedient elephant
stood still while the battle closed
around him and the standard he car
ried. He never stirred foot, refus-
ing to advance or retire, as the conflict
became hotter and fercer, until the
Mahrattas seeing the standard still
flying steadily In Its place, refused to
believe that they were being beaten
and rallied again and again around the
colors. And all this while, amid the
din of battle, the patient animal stood
straininE its ears to catch the sound OF
that voice 1t would never hear again.
At length the tide OF conquest left the
field deserted. The Mahrattas swept on
in pursuit Of the flying foe, but the
elephant, like rock. stood there with
the dead and dying around and the en-
sign waving in its place. For three
days and nights it remained where its
master had given the command to halt.
No bribe or threat could move 1t. They
then sent to village 100 miles away
and brought the mahout's little son.
The noble hero seemed then to remem-
Der how the driver had sometimes CIV
en- his authority to the little child. and
Immediately, with all the shattered
trappings clinging as he went, paced
quietly and slowly away.

STORIES OF RAVENS.
They Are Clever Birds and Seem -
Have Reasoning Powers.

They Are Clever Birds and Seem 70
Have Reasoning Powers.
Many stories are told of the clever
ness Of the raven, bird that really
seems to have reasoning powers. One
of these stories tells how the raven by
a skillful stratagem got young hare
for its dinner. 1t had pounced upon
the little animal, but the mother hare
drove 1t away. Then the raven slowly
retreated, encouraging the mother to
follow him, and even pretending that
he was afraid Of her. In this fashion
he led her a considerable distance
from the young one and then suddenly.
before the hare had time to realize the
meaning OF the trick, he rose in the
air, few swiftly back, caught the young
hare in his beak, and bore it away.
A similar plan was adopted by some
ravens that wished to steel food from
dog. They teased him till he grew 30
angry that he chased them from the
spot, but the artful birds turned sharp
ly around, easily reached the dish be-
fore him. and carried OF the choicer
bits in triumph. AS to the ravens
power Of speech, the following story,
which is given on the authority OF
Capt. Brown, who vouches for its truth,
will show how aptly it can talk. A
gentleman while travelling through
wood in the south of England was
startled by hearing shout of fair
play, gentleman; fair play!" uttered
in loud tones. The cry being presently
repeated, the traveller thought 1t must
proceed from some one in distress and
at once began to search for him. He
soon discovered two ravens fiercely at
tacking third. He was so struck with
the appeal of the oppressed bird that
he promptly rescued him. 1t turned
out that the victim was a tame raven,
belonging to a house in the neighbor-
hood, and the cry that it had used
10 opportunely was one of many that 1t
had been taught to utter.-Philadelphia
Times.

An Obnoxious Libel

English merchants are having hard
time in Constantinople, owing to the
campaign carried on by the Turkish
ceasor against trade marks and adver-
tisements entering the country. A firm
had the advertisement and directions
that accompanied their goods-a spe-
cial brand OF soap-translated into
Arabic The translation was done in
London, and in the phrase which in
English read, "Soapmakers to her
majesty the queen" appeared title
which in Turkey is only applied to tf
sultan. The censor offered the in
porter the alternative OF returning th>
soap to England or removing the OBJ
noxious label. In the meantime Brit
ish merchants are warned against send
ing any goods to Turkey bearing trade
marks, or circulars which could by
any stretch OF the imagination be in
any way connected with lslamism or
the sultan.-San Francisco Examiner.

A SUBTERRANFAN EXPLOSION.
a West Virginia Town Startled by
nm UEheaya1.

CUMBERLAND. Nd. Aug. ga report
reached here that the people at Horton,
w. Va. a town on the West Virginia Rail-
road. were nearly frightened to death last
night. There was terrific explosion back
on the mountain that made the earth
heaye. Many of the villagers thought the
world was coming to an end and fell on
their knees and went to praying. Some of
those who were not too badly frightened
went out to investigate.
When they reached the locality from
whence the report seemed to come the
ground was found to be so hot that it
almost burned their feet, while the air
seemed filled with flying smoke. There
were no surface disturbances found to in
dicate that a volcanic eruption had taken
place, but the opinion prevails that the
mysterious occurrance was the result Of a
subterranean disturbance. There is sup
posed to be coal oil in that locality, and it
it thought the explosion may have been
caused by the oil becoming ignited by
burning brush. The village of Horton is
two miles away from where the disturb
ance occurred yet the houses rocked until
the sleepers were nearly thrown from their
beds
The widest kind of excitement has pre-
vailed in the village all day. The people
refused to go to work this morning, and
men and women stood in groups and dis
cussed the mystery The mountain is so
densely covered with brush that it is al
most impossible to penetrate it, preventing
a full Investigation
