Whooping Cough

This is a more dangerous disease than is generally presumed. It will be a surprise to many to learn that more deaths result from it than from scar let fever. Pneumonia often results from it. Chamberlain s Cough Remedy has been used in many epidemics of whoop- ing coughs, and always with the best results. Delbert McKeig of Harlan, Iowa, says of it: "My boy took whoop- ing cough when nine months old. He had it in the winter. got bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy which

CHAPTER VII.


 "a rl ANDY had secretly enjoyed the lM commOtiOn caused by the It, U III tie circus rider being left in - the parsonage. at first be- cause of her inborn love of mischief and later because Polly had become second in her heart only to the pastor. She went about her work. crooning softly during the days of Polly's con yalescence. The deep. steady voice of the pastor reading aloud In the pretty window overhead was company. She would often climb the stairs to tell them some bit of village gossip and leave them laughing at quaint com mert about some inquisitive sister of the church who had happened to incur her displeasure.
 As spring came on Douglas carried Polly down to the sunllt garden be- heath the window. and Mandy flut- tered about arranging the cushions with motherly solicitude.
 More days slipped by and Polly began to creep through the little. soft ieaved trees at the back of the church and to look for the deep. blue. sweet scented violets. When she was able Douglas took her with him to visit some of the outlying houses of the poor. Her woman's instinct was quick to per. ceive many small needs In their lives that he had overlooked ard to suggest simple. inexpensive joys that made them her devoted friends.
 Their evenings were divided between making plans for these unfortunates and reading aloud from the Bible or other books.
 When Polly gained courage. Douglas sometimes persuaded her to read to him, and the little corrections that he made at these times soon became noticeable in her manner of speech She was so eager. so starved for Knowledge that she drank It as fast as he could give It. It was during their talks about grammar that Mandy generally fell asleep In her rocker. her unfinished sewing still In her lap
 When letter came from Jim and Toby 1t was always shared equally by Mandy and Nasty. Polly and the pas tor. But at last a letter came from Jim only. n2d Douglas. who was asked to read it. faltered and stopped after the first few words.
 Its no use my tryin' to keep It from you any longer. Poll" the letter began. eve aia't got Toby with us no more. He didn't have no accident: it wasn't that. He just seemed kinder sick an ailln' like ever since the night we had to leave you behind. used to get him warm drinks an things an try to pull him through. but he was always a-chillin' and a'achin'. If 1t wasn't one thing 1t was another done all knowed you'd "a wanted me to. an the rest of the folks was mighty white to him too. guess they kinder felt how lonesome he was. He couldn't get no more laughs in the show. so Barker had to put on another man with him. That kinder hurt him. too. l s'pose, an showed him the way that things was a-goin'. 1t was just after that he wrote the parson a-tellin' him to never let you come back. He seemed to n got an idec in his head that you was happier where you was. He wouldn't let me tell you bout his feelIn' rocky, cause he thought It might mebbe

his deep. full voice pronounced the sol emn words in which Ruth pleaded SC many years before.
 'Entreat me not to leave thee,'" he read, "'or to return from following after thee, for whither thou goest will go, and where thou lodgest will lodge. Thy people shall be my people and thy God my Cod"
 He stepped to ponder over the poetry of the lines.
 "Kind of pretty, ain't it?" Polly said softly. She felt awkward and con. strained and q little overawcd.
