Care of Whooping Cough.

One complication of whooping cough is
pneumonia, and it is this which makes
the disease so dangerous in infants. This
complication occurs most frequently dur
ing the winter months, while in summer
diarrhea Is the more serious compica-
ton. 1t is doubtful if medicine is OF
much value in whooping cough. There are
one or two drugs which are occasionally
given to control the spasm when it is un.
usually severe, but they must be given
only under the direction of the physician.
As rule. expectorants and medicine do
more harm than good. They upset the
stomach, especially that of an infant, and
the stomach, above ALL should be kept
in good condition, as it is upon the
strength derived from its nourishment
that the baby has to rely to carry il
through the siege. The thing which has
been found to give the most relief in
whoOping cough is the inhalation of plain
or medicated steam This can be accom-
plished by an ordinary inhaler or kettle
which is kept boiling in the room at Ger.
tain intervals, the child thus inhaling the
moisture laden air. A piece of absorbent
cotton or sponge may be placed In the
spout Of the kettle, on which has been
placed the medication. The steam pass
ing through the cotton or sponge per-
meates the room with indicated vapor.
Creosote and cresoline are considered the
best substances to use for this purpose,
a solution of either placed in a dish and
vaporized over an alcohol lamp making
good substitute for the Group kettle.
Cloths wrung out in one of these solu-
tons and hung up in the room are often
helpful.-Marianna Wheeler in Harpers

Many women spoil their health by
crampng and crushing their poor unfor
tunate feet into shoes too small for
them. This is really a most idiotic thing
TO do, as it not only causes the most in
tense pain, often ruins the gait entirely
but frequently brings about. if not really
serious injury to the foot, at any rate
such painful, unpleasant and uncomfort
able results as corns, bunions and other
pedal disfgurements, says the Jackson
vile Times Union and Citizen.
a woman who persists in wearing
shoes too small for her cannot long re-
main in good health, for she learns to
dread exercise because Of the pain and
difficulty involved. A shoe that is either
too short or too narrow is such an instru-
ment of torture that one would think no
really sensible woman would ever have
recourse to it, but every shoemaker
knows that not few fashionable women
habitually undergo this self imposed pen
ance. and, though they are invariably
wrinkled and aged before their time and
panied, anxious and even disagreeable
expression becomes permanently fixed on
their once pleasant features, they still
persist in thinking the game worth the
candle and that the possession of "a
pretty little foot" atones for all the pain,
discomfort and misery which are their
constant portion.
A squeezed in foot. however. can gen
orally be detected and. as a rule, is any
thing but a thing of beauty. The whole
shape is often altered until the foot is
almost deformed at length into the Chi
nese variety.

Ideals of Wemanbood.

1t is the opinion of Chicago woman
who has given good deal of observa-
tion to women in fiction that the ideal of
the novelist in regard to the eternal femi-
nine is constantly and more or less rap
idly growing. From a wide scope this
deliver has come to divide the considera-
ton of woman by the novelist into six
periods, covering the commonplace type,
the artificial type, the domestic type, the
growing type, the thinking type and the
living type.
Under the head of the commonplace
type" are cited a number of characters
of familiar fiction, among them Richard
sons Pamela and Clarissa Harlowe.
Then there is Fielding's Amelia. As still
other examples of what is considered
the commonplace woman are mentioned
the wife and daughters of the vicar of
Wakefield and Fanny Burney's Evelina.
Jane Austen's Emma and Mrs. Ben
nett and her daughters in pride and

woman" also the clever but INSCRIPTIONS
Becky Sharp, Ethel Newcome, Laura

Sir Walter Scott and Charles Dickens
are considered as experts in bringing out
the strength and weakness of the domes-
tic type of woman. Jeanie, Ellie Deans,
Rowena, Rebecca, Amy Robsart, Agnes
and Dora OF David Copperfeld" fame:
Lizzie HeXam. Little Dorrit. and Esther
Summerson are some of the characters
brought forward in support of this par
ticular style of woman.
When il comes to the growing type"
the idea of women attaining Il higher in
dividualty of their own, Charlotte
Bronte's Jane Eyre, Shirley and Lucy
Snowe are mentioned in company with
Mrs. Browning's Aurora Leigh.
George Eliots heroines are put for
ward as some of the best examples of
the thinking type"-that is, representa-
tives of women who have been and are
being influenced by the era of modern
culture Dinah Morris, Romola. Mag.

dolin Harcth and Fedama are speci-
mems of this class of women who also

some of those mentioned are Mrs Hum
phry Wards Katherine Elsmere, Mar
celia and Laura Fountain, Thomas Har-
dy's Tess of the d Urbervilles. George

Whatever may be the general opinion
of the position of these women of fiction
there can be little doubt that they are
women of interest.

SCAFFOLD POLES TO HIRE.
One of Various Interesting Features
of the Pole Yard business

"Scaffold Poles To Hire"
So read n sign painted on the end Of q

man whose eye CHANGED TO fall upon it
wondered just what il meant He had
heard Of renting steam boilers and pianos
and horses and railroad cars and so on,
and he knew that there is scarcely any
thing, perhaps nothing that canuo, be
rented, but he had never heard before Of
renting scaffold poles, and it seemed an
odd thing to do.
As matter of fact there are lots Of
scaffold poles rented. 1t is an old and
to those who have occasion to know
about il familiar branch of the pole yard
business.
Scafold poles are rented, of course, most
largely to builders, and there are more
builders who hire scatIold poles than
there are who own them. This for the
simple reason that it is for most build
ers cheaper TO hire The very largest
builders who must have yard anyway
in which to keep material and plant Of
one sort and another own their own
scaffold poles and keep them when not
in use in their own yard where they have
room for them.
The smaller builder having very likely
no material yard, has no convenient place
to store poles when not in use, and he
hires poles, as for that matter some of
the larger builders do also.
Scaffold poles are let at so much for
