"One Touch of Nature Makes
the whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farm yard
to come and share it. A similar trait
of human nature is to be observed when
a man discovers something exception
ally good-he wants all his friends and
neighbors to share the benefits of his
discovery. This is the touch of nature
that makes the whole world kin. This
explains why people who have been
cured by Chamberlain Cough Remedy
write letters to the manufacturers for
publication, that others similarly ailing
may also use it and obtain relief. Be-
hind everyone of these letters is warm
hearted wish Of the writer to be of use
to some one else. This remedy is for
sale by Kaufman Drug Co.

What Shall I Teach My Child.

Teach him that it is better to die
than to lie; that it is better to starve
than to steal; that it is better to be a
scavenger or " oodchopper than an
idler and dead beat; that it is just
as criminal and reprehensible to waste
Monday as to desecrate Sunday; that
labor is the price of all honest pos
session; that no one is exempt from
the obligation to labor with head,
heart or hand; that "an honest man
is the noblest work of God;" that
knowledge is power; that labor is
worship and idleness is sin; that it is
better to eat the crust of independent
poverty than to luxuriate amid the
richest viands as dependent. Teach
him these facts till they are woven
into his being and regulate his life
and we will insure his success though
the heavens fall.-Exchange.
