And doomed to labor all your life,
But cling to courage and be glad
Unless you fear to meet your wife.
Who knows what happiness may walt
Beyond the turning in the road?
Tomorrow, proud and rich and great,
You may have ceased to feel the
goad;
Tomorrow you may gladly rest,
Relieved of toll and Ear from strife,
Therefore lock hope within your
breast
Unless you fear to meet your wife.

Four Per Cent AS Predicted,
Wednesday
LIST CLOSES UNCHANGED
General Tone During Day Is Ir-
regular, and Price Changes
Are Narrow

(CoDyrfght 1912, BY New York Evening
NEW YORK, Aug. 2s.-The Bank
OF England's official discount went up
from to per cent today. as yes
terday's London cables had predicted
This had a double interest In financial
calculations. The four per cent bank
rate is exceptionally high for the
closing week Of August: one must &c
back to 1907 to find anything above
8 per cent at this time of the year
and the rate has not gone az high az
4, during August, even In such years
OF European financial disturbance az
1899 and 1890.
Therefore. one question which was
asked today was whether underlying
conditions or the continental money
markets might not perhaps be more
troublesome than had been supposed
The other matter OF doubt had TO DC
with the fact assigned In London to
explain the sudden raising of the
bank rate-namely, the large amount
OF American bills applying to Lom.
bard-st. for discount. We shall very
soon learn exactly how much and how
little OF serious significance the
banks decision has In such directions
Berlin and Paris discount rates went
up 1-8 today; but London private dis
couhts rose no higher, though they
are now below the bank rate. and our
own money market made practically
mo response.
The market closed unchanged.

A one per cent solution OF hydrogen

given good results.

Facts About Whooping Cough

Whooping cough is a contagious dis
ease characterized by Ats OF coughing
during which a whooping or crowine
sound is made following a long-draw1
breath. II Is generally taken through
direct contact with the sick, rarely
through exposure to the sick room, OF
to persons or clothing used by the
sick. The germs which causes the
disease is probably In the mucus Of
the nose and throat.
II occurs chiefly in children from
six months to six years of age. And
as there are many cases OF II being
reported this time of the year to the
health officers, a little talk on the
subject may not be amiss.
Whooping cough begins like an ordi.
nary cold In the head, with a cough,
worse at night, which persists. As
the coughing fits increase, the child
gets red in the face. has difficulty In
getting breath, and sometimes vomits
when the attack is over.
After q variable perlo1 from few
days to two weeks, the peculiar feat
ure OF the disease appears. The child
gives is or 20 short coughs without
drawing breath; the face swells and
grows blue; the eyeballs protrude, the
veins stand out, and the patient ap-
pears to be suffocating. when at last
he draws In long breath with a
Growing or whooping sound, which
gives rise to the name OF the disease.
In mild cases, there may be six to
twelve attacks In "a hours; In severe
cases, from 40 to 80.
Owing to, the numerous compiled
tions, whooping cough must be looked
upon as a serious disease, especially
In infants under two years, and in
weak, delicate children. II causes
about onefourth Of all deaths among
children and for this reason q physi-
clans services should be secured
when possible.
A host Of remedies is used for
whooping cough. but no single one ia
always the best.
Fresh air is Of great Importance.
Patients should be strictly isolated IN
rooms BY themselves. And children
should be sent away who have not
