On crNERAL INTEREST,

Statistics have proven that ninety-five
per cent of the population of any terri,
tory are troubled with q cough or cold
at some time between September and
March. Also that ninety-nine per cent
of the consumption cases have been
caused by neglect Of a trifing cough.
That "trifing cough" weakeus the
action of the lungs, tears the bronchial
tubes and leaves the throat dry and sore.
The seeds of consumption then take
easily and your life is in positive danger.
When you commence to cough do not
delay one hour, use Bauers Instant
Cough Cure at once. 1t will instantly
loosen up that tightness and heal that
soreness of the chest and will strengthen
the action of the lungs. 1t will save
you hours of torture and misery.
Bauer's Instant Cough Cure is guaran-
teed to do all this or your money will be
refunded. The following druggists will
give you a sample bottle free. F. A.

A young man who spent his summer
vacation on q Maine farm says that
new instances Of the thrift and sEewd-
ness Of his landlady are constantly
thrusting themselves upon his attGn-
ton.
One day a wagon load Of unexpected
relatives descended ON the farm. anu
The mistress was, as she afterward
frankly said, put to it" to provide
enough food for dinner. She brought
forward among other things an apple
pie which seemed to the boarder far
inferior to the pies she usually made
But when she served 1t she spoke OF
her reputation as piemaker.
They do say at the sociables that
nobody's pies quite come up to mine,
she remarked, with a beaming smile
land apple pies are what you might
call my speciality. I've often been
asked for the recipe, but. tell 'em Its
knack and Judgment does It, not rule.
The pie disappeared, and then. when
her guests were not as hungry as they
had been, she brought forth a second
pie, flaky Of crust and luscious to the
taste.
"Why, Aunt Mary. said the youn
gest Of the party, boy OF twelve, u
think this pies ever so much better
than the other. and you haven't sait
word about itr'
His aunt looked at him without sc
much rs n twinkle in her eyes.
This one will 90 down without
praising, reckon" she said gravely.

TALES os TEA GRouN. S.

Telling fortunes by tea grounds is a
favorite pastime with many. Here are a
few hints for the benefit of the unini-
tiated:
If the grounds are punched together,
| it signifies that all will be well with the
fortune seeker, but if they are scattered
| it means much the reverse.
A small speck near the top is letter.
A large speck, photograph or present
of some kind, what it is depending on
the shape of the speck.
The sticks are people-light or dark,
short or tall, according to their color
and length. A small one means child.
A thick one, woman.
If they lie crosswise they are enemies,
says What to Eat. If straight up, init
mate friends, or pleasant acquaintance
to be made.
If large speck is near them, it means
they are coming for visit, bringing a
valise or trunk.
If there is bottle shape near stick,
it means physician. If book shape,
a minister or lawyer. If many fine
specks, a married man.
A long line of grounds with no open
ing between foretells journey by water.
If openings, by rail.
A large ring means an offer of mar
riage to an unmarried woman. To a
married one, it means fortunate under
taking. To man, success in business.
A small ring is an invitation.
Dust like grounds punched together at
the bottom or side are sum of money.
A triangle signifies good luck, so does
an anchor or horseshoe.
| A half moon or star to married people
means paying investment. To unmar-
ried, a new lover or sweetheart.
A pyramid is extremely lucky.
A square or oblong, new lands.
Flowers, a present, what it is depend
ing on the shape, or the present may be
| flowers.
Leaves, sickness and death.
Fruit of any kind, health.
A hand, warning, if the fingers are
spread. If closed, an offer of friendship
or marriage.
A cross signifies trouble. Any must
cal instrument wedding. Bird, suit at
law. Cat, deception. Dog, faithful
friend. Horse, important news. Snake,
an enemy. Turtle, long life. Rabbit
luck. Flag, some surprise or a jour-
ney to another country.
| A heart is the most propitious sign of
all, as it means happiness, fidelity, long
life, health and wealth.

DIET FOR THE HAIR.

Women who have the finest hair live
principally upon fruits, grains and vege
tables. Vegetables and cereals are their
tonics. Too much meat and milk cause
atrophy of the roots, and, Of course the
hair comes out as result of this condi'
ton.
If the hair is falling out eat little meat
and drink no milk; live upon fruits and
vegetables. Fruit gives luxuriant locks,
especially those containing iron. Prunes,
cranberries and spinach are also useful
articles of diet if one would have fine
hair. Hair that is growing coarse de.
mands q diet containing albumen and
gelatine.
