Bronchitis and Hoarseness
in Five Hours.
Much is being done in these days
to stop the ravages of consumption,
but probably nothing has been so
effective as teaching the public how
to break up cold and cure coughs,
bronchitis, tonsilitis, etc., with simple
home-mixed medicine. A laxative
cough syrup, free from whiskey is the
prime need. A cough indicates in
flammation and congestion and these
in turn are due to an excess of waste
and poisons in the system. A tonic
laxative cough syrup rids the system
of congestion, while relieving the
painful coughing. Get the following
and mix at home: One-half ounce
fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce COM
pound essence cardiol and three ounces
syrup white pine compound. Shake
the bottle and take twenty drops every
half hour for four hours. Then one

suddenly exclaims: why, it's the

the harbor of st. Tropez yesterday

some concern in his tone, as he ceases
his target practice.

put his sailor eyes upon the craft.

this he adds: Il wonder where's she
bound, to the sardine fishing off Cape

At this information the American
gazes very unpleasantly toward the lit

calls Enid to him and suggests: You

memories of that blessed time her

AS for the ladies', they retire early,
and awake the next morning to find
the vessel floating midway between
the picturesque cliffs OF Monte Carlo,
that are hazy in the distance, and the
mountains of northern Corsica, just a
little to the southeast.
After breakfast, of which everybody
eats SO little that Monsieur Leboeuf,
gazing upon the untouched viands,
utters a snort of rage. Finding his
lady love still cool to him, Mr.. Barnes,
in very desperation, goes to shooting
again.
The crew, anxious to see his skill,
toss bottles into the air and throw up
potatoes for his unerring bullets, and

and his success is SO astounding that

bullet through two potatoes thrown
into the air at the same time as they
cross each other in their fight.
The reports OF his pistol floating
over the placid water reach a consid-
cradle distance. At all events, they
and the cheer excite some comment on
little felucca that has been sailing
an almost parallel course; apparently
a very fast craft, it draws somewhat
nearer.

But few minutes after, Barnes sud-

to the landing and disappears in the
sixteenth century architecture of the
town.
Consequently, when Marina and Enid

But both boats being now at the

more tightly to his arm.
During this. Miss Anstruther, rather
moodily with a marine glass inspects
the neighboring fishing boats in the
roadstead, some of these seagoing
craft. Among them is one whose
graceful lateen rig attracts the Eng
lish girls attention. Having little
else to do the young lady several
times puts her binocular upon the
lateen.rigged fishing boat, and in the
course of two hours weary waiting,
becomes quite familiar with its grace
full outlines and rig.
About this time Barnes returns in
the cutter and is not overgraciously
welcomed by his fiancee. who. though
generally level-headed, has now nursed
the slight that she conceives her love
and trust had received yesterday, into
a fervid jealousy under which each I'M
intentional omission of service in her
betrothed is an additional offense.
Together they pass tiresome hour
till Leboeuf makes his appearance IN
the dngy.
"Whv in the dickens weren't you on

cook: and the great culinary artist
