CELESTIAL REFRESHMENTS

Places of rest and refreshmpnt are

though when times are good and the
weather cold they indulge in something
stronger, which often inebriates and

Chinese whisky, of Which a thirsty
carter may have a skin full for some

custom of carrying ones own tea is SO
common that it is difficult to procure a
cup of tea in any of the restaurants, as
they do not keep it and do not care to

fortyfourth year Of the Christian era"
What! You dispute with me?'
II differ from you. Let me give you
a few pointers. Agrippa, who was the
son of Aristobulus and Berenice and
grandson of Herod the Great, was edll-
Gated at Rome. He lived there in a
very eXtravagant style, giving splendid
entertainments, especially to the prin-
ces of his imperial family, and scatter
ing his money lavishly in gifts to the
freemen of the emperor until his debts
rendered it unsafe for him to remain
longer in the city. He then took refuge
in Idumea. From this period almost to
the death of Tiberius he suffered va
riety of misfortunes; but, having form
ed friendship with Caligula, the lat
ter, on his accession to the throne gave
him the tetrarchies of Abilene, Ba-
tanea, Trachonitis and Auranitis. His
government was mild toward the Jews,
with whom he was remarkably popu-
lar, but he severely prosecuted the
Christians. He caused James, the
brother of John and the head of the
church at Jerusalem, to be beheaded
and Peter to be thrown into prison. He
died at Casarea, in Palestine, while
celebrating games in honor of the en-
peror, in the fifty-fifth year of his age
and the forty-fourth Of the Christian
era"

Good Advice.

If your children are subject to
Group you should never be without
a bottle Of Harris Honey and Hore-
hound in the house. It is a sure
and speedy cure for Group and we
have never known it to fail. If
you give it as soon as hoarseness
appears, it will prevent Group in
every instance. Mothers should
remember this as Harris Honey and
Horehound has saved the lives of
many children subject to Group
when nothing else gave relief.
There is no danger in giving this
medicine to small children in large
or frequent doses. Sold by Jos.
