COACHES AND AUTOCARS.
How the Twentieth Century Is Linked
With the Eighteenth.

With the Eighteenth.
The nineteenth century has seen the
passing of the democracy of travel.
With the twentieth has come a return
TO the aristocratic methods OF the
eighteenth century, when gentleman,
If he wished to tour the continent, did
so In his own coach. Friends in the
country inviting u lady Of quality to
visit them wrote asking where horses
should meet her. She naturally came
in her own carriage. When Miss Edge
worth's heroine Helen wished to pay
her debts her principal asset was her
travelling chaise.
In the youth of our own grandfa.
theirs the truly great. enshrined in an
aristocratic vehicle, refused to descend
from it even when on shipboard. The
opera singer Grisl crossed the channel
in her own coach. while her dutiful
husband stood ON deck ut the coach
window holding the harmless necessa.
ry basin. The individual vehicle was
hall mark of distinction.
There has been an interval when peo.
pie were content to herd together in
railway trains, but it has already pass
ed away. We have returned to the
private, the special, the PERSONAL; In a
word. we have gone back to the eight
eenth century. Now, as then. gentle.
man travels in his own conveyance

Cowboys.

A cowboy, to our modern minds,
means a man who herds cattle. Yet
the original cowboys" instead OF
herding cattle, stole them. The name
seems first to have been applied TO a
band of horsemen. part soldiers and
part bandits, who fought on the Brit
ish side during the Revolution. West
chester county, n. Y, was the scene OF
their operations. and the most OF them
were Tories. Because they drove away
many cattle on their raids they were
called cowboys. Opposed TO the cow
boys in their raids through the section
OF New York which lay between the
British and American lines were the
skinners, somewhat similar band OF
marauders, who espoused the CONT
mental cause.-AmericaD Boy.

Parental SeveritY.

The children of two centuries ago
fell on stern times. II one may believe
that the spirit Of family life was &C.
curately expressed by an excellent
mother of that day who said, without
humorous intent, that her children
"loved her as sinners dread DEATH"
There is little doubt that parental con-
troll at that date was as rigorous as
this anecdote indicates. Ii is said that
when little Andrew Elliot, afterward
lieutenant governor Of New York. OBJ
jected to boiled mutton his father. Sir
Gilbert Elliot, frowned.
LET Mr.. Andrew have boiled NUT
ton for breakfast" commanded the
stern parent. cold mutton for dinner
and cold mutton for supper till he has
learned to like IT."

STOP BUYING EXPENSIVE
COUGH REMEDIES
Make the Best at Home

Money spent for the old-style, ready
made cough syrups in bottles holding
only Q to 2K ounces isvery largely wasted,
because most of them are composed
principally of sugar and water. Yet you
have to pay the same price as if it was all
medicine. Stop wasting this money. You
can make a better cough medicine at
home at one-fifth the cost. Merely go to
the drug store named below and ask for 2
ounces (50c WORTHY of Schiffmann's Con-
ceutrated Expectorant. Mix this with
one pint of granulated sugar and one
half pint of boiling water, which makes
full pint (l6 ounces). This new, simple,
pleasant remedy is guaranteed TO relieve
the worst cough or cold. Also excellent
for Bronchial Asthma, Bronchitis, Group,
Hoarseness and Whooping Cough. One
bottle will make enough homemade
cough medicine to probably last The whole
family the entire winter. Children like it,
1t is so pleasant to take and 1t positively
contains no chloroform, opium, morphine
or other narcotics, as do most cough mix
lures. Keep it on hand in case of emer-
gency and stop each cough before it
gets a firm hold. This store has been
authorized to return the money in every
single case where it does not give per-
feet satisfaction or is not found the
best remedy ever used. Absolutely no
risk is run in buying this remedy under
this positive guarantee. For sale here by

WOMEN OF NIGERIA.
Their Lips Are Plugged With Wooden
Disks So They Can't Eat Dog.

Their Lips Are Plugged With Wooden
Disks So They Can't Eat Dog.
The women of northern Nigeria are
not prepossessing and in their scanty
attire, with tails of grass hanging from
their girdles, are sometimes really gro.
tesque.
To add further to their beauty both
the Upper and lower lips of these wom-
EN- are pierced in order to admit a tiat.
round disk of wood called the tichiak.
which Is usually about the size of a
half dollar. The lips of the little girls
are pierced when they are seven or
eight years Of age. and a piece Of
wood inserted and worn for time un.
til larger one takes it's place. the
opening thus being gradually enlarged
until full sized tichiak can be carried
without discomfort The object of this
singularly discomforting adornment is
to prevent the women from eating
dogs. which are considered the greatest
delicacy by the men OF the tribes.
Both sexes decorate their bodies with
regular designs. The chests and backs
of the little girls are scariied at a
very early age. When they arrive at
marriageable age the girls undergo a
further ordeal. for two sets of parallel
lines are cut both on the chest and the
back. and as soon as possible after
marriage the head lines are made
These consist of number of short cuts
across the forehead, extending from ear
to ear, and thirteen long. slanting lines
are cut on each cheek from ear to chin.
