II the Lactcr.ologists tell us we must
scrub the mOuthp.cceS Of telephones
once a day to get rid Of dangerous

to scrub after each user?

A Universal Virus.

The medical theory which has just
been advanced by Professor William
II. Welch of Baltimore before the Lon
don medical congress whereby all dis
eases to which humanity Is heir can be
prevented or if already in existence
made to speedily disappear by the use
Of a universal virus Is heartily in
dorsed by DR.. John E. Wyeth Of New
York. He says 1t will not be long be-
fore every physician in the world will
use this new virus in preference and to
the absolute exclusion Of any other
drugs. He states that the best manner
Of administering the serum had not
yet been determined, but as soon as
this point is settled satisfactorily its
adoption by all the medical profession
will be almost immediate.

Parental Partially.


All parents. In the first place, should
show their children that they have no
p.rental fnvOrites. They should prove
that all the children as individuals have
an equal share Of fathers and a
mothers love. They should convince
their boys and girls alike that no one
child occupies Il larger aren In the paren'
tai heart cells than every other child. tor
when child begins to feel that the ra-
ther or mother does not care for him as
much as the rest OF the children that
child Immediately begins to despise that
parental partiality. Love feeds on love-
And yet there are thousands upon thou
sands OF homes In America In which
Won would not have to visit more than
two or three days before you could,
while there tell which was the favorite
son or daughter. That child will per-
haps be better dressed, as old jacob
aroused the jealousy Of his other chill
dren by buying for his favOrite boy, Jo-
seph. a coat Of many colors. That child
will have a better room In the house
than the other children. He will have
more spending money; he Will be al
lowed to do what the other children are
not allowed to do. On the other hand,
the child which Is not the parental ia
yorlte will often be showed into the
background or sent away to the coun-
try, as Jesse sent his youngest son, Da-
vid, of to tend the sheep. 1t Is easy
enough for parents to say that they
have no favorites. but the words OF the
LID do not always correspond with the
facts OF the life. At nearly every fu-
neral Of a little child which | have at
tended In my pastoral work | have
heard a statement like this made by
the side OF the white casket: 1T Is too
bad the little one was taken. She was
her fathers or mothers favorite." Now
before God today | declare that no par
ent has a right to have fayorite child
no favorite unless that child is a
born idiot or an. invalid or one who
should be cared for and guarded the
more carefully because OF his or her
helplessness. The fraternal hatred ex-
listing between Esau and Jacob can be
directly attributed to Isaac's favoritism
for bis eldest son and Rebekah's favor
ltism for her younger boy. And many
and many home is broken up today
because fathers and mothers will per-
sist in showing preference for one child
at the expense Of the affection they
ought to show for their other children
Parental favoritism has caused
many a boy or girl to be skepticai
OF a fathers or a mothers love-the
same kind of skepticism which, In
India, little girl had who few years
ago made a significant comparison to

The Best Remedy for Group.
From the Atchison, Kan, Daily GlobeI

From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe.l
 This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible things in the world is to be awakened in the night by a whoOp from one of the children. The croup reme- dies are almost as sure to be lost in case of crOup. as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of burg lars. There used to be an old fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tOlu, but some modern mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to "throw up the phlegm" quick CT, and gives relief in shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as a croupy cough appears and it will prevent the attack. It never fails and is pleasant and safe to take. For sale at Cot ter'S drug store.

The party in the smokingroom of the steamer was talking of Irish wit and the quickness thereof. Several gave personal experience, and one man, to his sorrow, tried to use an old story. Then spoke the agent for an ex porting house.
 II was coming up the South American coast on sailing ship last winter," he said, "when this happened. There was Nor wegian in the crew who was ab- solutely fearless aloft. He did d number of tricks for us one af- ternoon, and as grand finale stood on his head on top of the mainmast. We held our breaths until he swung himself back into the rigging.
 :" T would like to see any of you do that" he boasted when he reached the deck.
 "I can do it," said a little Irishman, one of the kind who will never be 'stumped. I can do it, and forwith he started up the mast.
 "We could see from the way he climbed that he knew nothing about moving about alOft, and the captain yelled at him through the megaphOne to come down be- fore he killed himself. He howl ed back that he was going to stand on his head first. He reached the crOsstrees, and was actually putting his heels into the air, when the ship rolled and | down he came. We held our breaths again.
 Unfortunately, he struck in the sag of a loose sail, bounded off and lit on the deck on his feet.
 "1'd like to see any of you do that" he cried, even before he had recovered from the shock. I'd like to see youn" York Tribune.

"Jack Nevins told a group in the Continental Hotel lobby one evening during his last visit to Philadelphia of a fellow passen- ger on Lehigh Valley train who was unable to find his ticket when the conductor made the rounds. The conductor bade the man go on hunting, and said he would return when he had col lected all the other tickets. When he returned, the passen- ger was still searching.
 "Are you sure you had it when you sat down?" asked the con- ductOr.
 "Sure!"
 "And you have not left your seat?"
 "No."
 Well, then said the conduc- tor," you could not possibly have lost the ticket"
