Proper Treatment of Pneumonia

Pneumonia is too dangerous a dis
ease for anyone to attempt to doctor
himself, although he may have the
proper remedies at hand. A physician
should always be called. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that pneu-
monia always results from a cold or
o an attack Of the grip. and that
by giving Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy the threatened attack of pneu-
monia may be warded off. This rem
edy is also used by physicians in the
treatment Of pneumonia with the best
results. DR.. w. j. Smith, Of Sanders,
Ala, who is also a druggist, says Of it:
u have been selling Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and prescribing it in
my practice for the past six years. !
use it in cases Of pneumonia and have
always gotten the best results" Sold

Twenty-Five year ago, an invalid boy
seeking health, wandered into the
.coteaus Of Deuel. county, and handi-
capped as he was by i'll health set to
work to make the best of the unto
ward conditions confronting him.
Without a dollar; fearful Of slavery Of
debt, physically too weak to endure
the manual labor incident to ordinary
farming, he secured a few sheep, a
few chickens, made a bit of garden,
lived in the open, gained strength
and soon found that while his wheat
growing nelghbors were burdened
with harassing debt, he was free and
independent. He kept on the way he
began; his flocks grew, his hens proli-
fic, his garden productive, his home
constantly charging and taking on
new beauties and comforts, and while
his farmer neighbors were abandon
ing their claims and declaring Dakota
a failure, he went down to the village
and established a bank account. And
when by thrift and sense that hank
account had grown to the point where

UNBER=POLITENESS.

It is always better to err on the side
of courtesy. 81 notice." says a
young man, "that some men take
of their hats in elevators when
ladies enter, and some do not. Which
shall I do? want to be courteous,
but / do not want to appear to con-
denim others or to be trying to show
off a courtesy superior to Others"
What others may think is sometimes
of eonse quence, but what is right and
courteous is of consequence always.
A young mans taking off his hat in
an elevator when there are ladies will
be appreciated by the ladies, even If
the men who do not take off their
hats do not appreciate it.
The same problem often arises in
the street cars. Two men sit down
together in the last empty seats.
Presently two ladies enter. 1t is evil
dent from the demeanor of one of the
men that he has no thought of giving
up his seat. What shall the other do?
Appear to rebuke his friend by rising
and Offering his seat, or sacrifice his
courtesy and unselfshness toward
women by sitting still? The same
principle is involved as in the case of
hats in elevators. We are bound
always to do right, to be kind and
courteous, whatever may appear to
be the bearing of our attitude on the
| conduct of others.
"But,n young man replies, "this
principle will mean the surrender of
our rights. Must I in getting on
street cars and going through station
gates allow women and children to
| get ahead of me?" Why not? The
thing itself is of insie nificant conse-
quence. Nothing is lost that is of any
value, and courtesy and unselfishness
which we value are saved. As for
surrepdering rights, what are oul
rights for if We may not do what We
will with them and surrender them /

GOLDFISH IN JAPAN.
The Demand For Them Appears to
BE Almost without Limit.

be ALMOST W AtnOuf
Although the goldfish occurs in a
wild state In Japan, it is probable that
China some 400 years ago furnished
the stock from which the wonderful
varieties of japanese goldfish have
been bred. It is reported that in feudal
days, even when famine was abroad in
the land and many people were starv-
ing. the trade in goldfish was flourish
ing.
The demand at present appears to be
without limit, and the output shows a
substantial increase each year. Many
thousand people make living by grow
ing goldfish for market, and hundreds
of peddlers carry the fish through the
streets and along the country roads in
wooden tubs suspended from a shout
der bar.
The leading goldfish center is Kori-
yama, near the ancient capital of Nara.
Here are $50 independent breeding es-
adjustments, whose yearly product
runs far into the millions. One farm
which I visited was started 40 years
ago. At first 1t was conducted merely
for the pleasure of the owner, but it

BOYS AND GIRLS.
JOHNNY'S COMPOSITION.
THE CAT.

OAl.
The cat is very interesting animal
He is small fur dog that meows, ana
has whiskers and several other things.
He has four paws-two fore paws ana
two behind ones-and tail. He mas
been known for many years, two OF
him having been said to be on the
Ark, where he must have been tleo
up, or what would have become OF the
rats? Cats don't get to be cats untll
they are a year old, when they stop
being kittens, which they are born ss.
1t takes kitten several weeks to geb
his eyes open, if he doesn't ge1
drowned before that time, and ne
scratches when he is mad. My tather
says camele used to be cats, but got
their backs up one day and couldn't
get them down again, and so became
camels. / never heard a camel meow,
but suppose they can, because they
can do most anything, having seven
stomachs and going many days with
out water.
The dictionary says cat is carnlV-
orous quadruped, but that does not
sound like cat. The old Egyptians
used to be very fond of the cat, treat
ing him like member of their own
family, and making mummies out OF
him when he died. Some of these
mummies still live. They used to
hang people for killing cats in Egypt,
because the cat was supposed to be a
sacred animal, being sign of the
moon, probably because they are
generally out all night. We have a
cat named Tom, and he has six
Kittens, which he washes their face
every day just like me.
Cats never fall out of anything
without landing on their feet, which
is why their feet are SO soft, and they
have 70 be killed nine times before
they die, and sometimes they don't
even then. They eat meat whe1
tame, and when wild they cry like a
baby until somebody comes to see
what is the matter, and then they cal
him, which is fatal, and teaches peo-
pie to mind their own business, and
not go seeing what other people;
children are crying for.
A cats eye is very queer thing
looking like slot machine all day
and an agate at night, seeing better
in the dark than in the light, like
witches. Therefore they are said t.
be friends of witches, and some people
don't like them on that account, bu
TGo.
The two best cats that ever live
belonged to Dick Wilmington, mayo
of London, who went out West an
killed lot of rats at dollar head
and took the money home to hi
master to get to be Mayor with, AM
Puss in Boots. who stole his master
clothes and ate a giant, thereb,
making his master owner of the farm
and husband of a rich girl, who's
father died and left it all to her.
My cat don't do anything like this
but he gets there just the same, an
/ is very gentle to my little brother
who pulls his tail and doesn't have t
wish he hadn't.
Altogether I don't know what W
should do without cats, especiall
those that like to have them lyin
around just as We do. Yours truly,
JOHNNY.
