No Poison in Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy.

From Napier New Zsa land, Herald:
Two years ago the Pharmacy Board of
New South Wales, Aus, ralia, had an
analysis made Of the cough medicines
that were sold in thst market. Out Of
the entire list they found only one that
they declared was entirely free from
all poisons. This exception was Cham
herlain's Cough Remedy, made by the
Chamberlain Medicine Company. Des
Moines. Iowa, U. S. A. The absence
Of all NARCOTICS makes this remedy the
safest and best that can be had; and it
is with feeling Of security that auv
mother can give it to her little ones.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
especially recommended BY it's makers
for coughs. colds, Group and whoopine
cough. This remedy is for sale by all
dealers, t..,s s.4

Four distinct explanations have been
given Of the origin of the term dog

as probable in the mouth of sailor.

two short watches from 4 to 0 and
from 9 to s, Introduced so that the
crews may get a continual change of
hours OF duty and each man have only
his fair share in the small hours Of the
morning.
Others maintain that the dog watches
take their title from the fact that they
are short and fitful in character. so
that the phrase is akin to dog sleep.
Admiral Boys, in a lecture at the
United Service Institution in London
in 1899, remarked that he believed dog
watches are so called because dogs are
ut times eoployed on shipboard, as in
the army. for keeping watch as scouts
or sentinels.
Others connect 1t with the Scandl-
navian dagmalastad, a day watch. cor,
ruptcd into dog.
Theodore Hook wittily explained dog
watches to be watches that are cur

TURTLE FLESH.

The Handsomest of the Animals

No one really knows how large tur-
tie may grow, but certainly there does
not appear to be much If any exagger-
alton attached to the statements of
Pllny and Strabo, who, describing the
chelonophagi of the Red sea. say that
they utilized the shells of the turtles
they had eaten as roofs to their huts
and bonts for their feeble voyages.
Strange to say. the handsomest tur.
tie, the hawks bill variety (Chelone i'm
bricata), furnishes the worst flesh, be-
ing so strongly favored with musk as
to be almost UNBEATABLE. This peculiar
ity would seem TO point to a diet Of
squid since these mollusca are exceed
ingly musky. But It may not be ont Of
place to remark here that turtle flesh.
even OF the best sorts, is not nice, As
Sam Weller's pieman hoarsely whls-
pered, Its the seasoning as does IT.
A diet of turtle steaks or of hashed
turtle or of turtle soup. au naturel,
would soon sicken any one but saw
age. For sixpence or Its equivalent In
most Of the West India island towns
one can get heapcd plate of turtle
steak with bread or jams or sweet POI
tatoes ad lib. But / never knew even
n hungry sailor who wanted more than
one meal n week of 1t, for all its cheap
ness. The fact is that in the cult of
turtle soup we are following "a long
way off, 1t is true the example set 10y
the Chinese, who love gelatinous soups
and pay fabulous prices for the nests
Of the sea swallows, the holothuria, or
sea slug, and the sharks fins because
Of their gelatinous qualities. = Frank
