THE GOOD OLD WAY.

A severe cold or attack of la grippe is
like fire, thu sooner you combat it the
better your chances are to overpower il.
But few mothers in this age are willing
to do the necessary work required to

ment such as would be administered by
their grandmothers, backed ~ Boschee's

treatment of colds and is still in greater
household favor than any known rem

of the old-fashioned aids German Syrnp
will cure a severe cold in quick time. 1t
will cure colds in children or grown peo-

Gliding Without Gold.

One more proof that all is not gold
that glitters is found in the fact that
much of the gold lettering seen on
signs, and also much of the gliding OF
picture frames, has no gold whatever
about it. Among laymen the opinion
prevails that all such decoration re-
quires the actual use of gold leaf, but
the reality is different, and substitute
that defies detection has been widely
used for some time. The exact effect
OF gold is secured by using a leaf of
either silver OF aluminium under yell
low paint. The metal backing gives
the required luster, and the paint gives
the required color. This method can
not be used in all cases, because the
paint is of peculiar quality and re-
quires putting on with an even thick
ness. For this reason it is generally
applicable only to fiat surfaces. Parts
of a gilded picture frame which are
nodded into waving surfaces generally
require genuine golf leaf to cover them.

Great Heads and Little Wit.

Great men are usually said to have
great memories, but it does not fol-
low that all who have great memories
are great men, I remember an idiot
in Ohio who was a great curiosity
many years ago. He knew the whole
Bible by heart from beginning to end,
and if any verse was read or repeated
to him he could tell exactly in what
book and chapter it was to be found
and it's verse number in the chapter.
He was considered a great marvel in
this particular, but in every other he
was a mental imbecile and could not
be trusted even to feed himSelf.-St.
Louis be-DemOcrat.
