COUGH DUE TO NERVOUSNESS
Not Dangerous, but Hard to Distln-
0uish From That Where Bronchial
Tubes Arc Affected.

1t frequently happens that persons
hitherto in good health are suddenly
seized with fits of coughing, which
they have considerable difficulty In
overcoming. Due to general neu-
rasthenic or historical nervous condi-
tlon. this cough. owing to It's particu-
lar characteristics. is termed the
nervous cough"
The nervous cough often cannot be
distinguished In any way from the
cough due to an affection of the res
piratOry passages. 1t sometimes &C.
ours in the form of periodical, pro-
longed and very painful fits of cough
Ing and sometimes as continual
short, dry cough. It's most character
lstic symptom Is that it ceases during
sleep and begins again on waking.
The patients, while often source of
anxiety to those around them, are
generally otherwise in very good
health.
Another popularity of this cough is
the absence OF any secretion, for even
after very prolonged fits Of coughing
there Is rarely anything noticeable
except q little saliva. Patients may
sometimes succeed in checking the
cough, but not for long, and as
rule in such cases the next fit of
coughing is all the more severe.
The nervous cough is particularly
frequent between the ages Of twelve
and seventeen. 1t then often as.
sumes the character of a barking
cough. 1t is unattended by any seri.

AND Then EVERYBODY SMILED
Young Man Seized Opportunity for

She was young and fair. Her neat.

corners of which the March breezes
sportively toyed with, glided down
Broadway. Many admiring glances
followed her. His eyes followed
her, never loosing sight of her

of tending his services to help her to

That moment, while being rewarded
with smile from the lips OF the beau

to the hold he had upon earth. First
one foot flew up In the air, while he
balanced himself on the other; then
he reversed the position
