For ChildfeD'S Cough.

You cannot use anything better
for your child's cough and cold than
DR. Kings New Discovery. 1t is pre-.
pared from pine tar mixed with heal.
ing and soothing balsams. It does
not contain anything harmful and is
slightly laxative, just enough to ex.
pei the poisons from the system. DR.
Kings New Discovery is antiseptic-
kills the. cold germs raises the
phlegm - loosens the cough and
soothes the irritation. Don't put off
treatment. Coughs and colds often
lead to serious lung troubles. 1t is
also good for adults and the aged.

PROFOUND EMOTION.
/ May lneite Severe Headache, Epi-
fepsy and Even insanity.

There is no state OF mind that so
quickly affects the regular, organic
working of the brain as strong emo
ton, and so it is only natural that
emotion excites various nervous dis
orders - headaches, epilepsy and
even insanity.
The character of the pain i'll
emotional headache is throbbing,
beating or Splitting" Sufferers Of
ten say, 81 have splitting head
ache," and s'lfy head feels as if it
would burst OPEN
The stronger the emotions, the
more likely they are to cause head
aches. One rs apt to think Of vio
lent fit Of temper or some great
grief as the kind Of emotion that
produces headaches, but ve1ation,
anxiety and the "worry'i habit are
more common causes. Suspense or
joy-any profound emotion will
bring on a headache. Sometimes
listening to fine music or seeing a
play will 80 work on the feelings as
to end IN bad headache.
Excitement is a condition that
accompanies an emotion and yet it
may occur independently Of q spe-
cial uutburst-that is, a person may
give way to tempest of anger or
sorruw and then some time after the
attack has passed he remains in a
state Of nervous excitement which
we may compare to the ground
swell Of the ocean after q storm.
The whole nervous system rs in a
different condition from what it was
before the emotional outburst.
Sometimes in preparing for hol-
day or party or some unusual So
cial function an individual may be
quite excited or "nerved up" as the
saying is. Here the excitement is
attached to the event and yet quite
distinct from it.-W. 81. Riley, M.
D., in Good Health.

What She Should Do.

Bertie had been forbidden under
severe penalties to play in the rain
barrel, but one day, sad to relate,
bis mamma and grandmother found
him splashing in it in high glee.
His mammals face hardened, but
the grandmother's kind heart led
her to make plea for the offender.
Bertie heard the plea and when
his mamma asked him stsrnly what
she should do to a little boy who
did not mind what was told him he
answered promptly:
'1 fink you had better mind your
mamma"

LABOR IN lALlLENU.
ho az Little As You Can Seems to ee
tia Motto In Uganda.

Building, when you have any to
do. writes A. L. Kitching in "OG
the Back Waters Of the Nile is a
very worrying piece Of business in
Uganda, for the incapacity of the
workmen is exceeded only by their
laziness. One gang Of men engaged
in building church in Kabarole
was told to deepen the hole for one
of the poles and then to put the
pole IN place.
Two hours afterward the entire
gang was discovered seated round
the pole, each with a hand upon it
lest it should fall over and crush
them. They were waiting patiently
for some one to come and tell them
whether the hole was now deep
enough. They would have sat there
quite contentedly for the rest Of
the day if no one In authority had
appeared.
The general desire to boss some
one else interferes with speedy ac-
compishment A considerable
crowd of men will turn up to work
on a iob-the making of a road, the
building of a house OF the clearing
Of an area Of jungle. At the head
comes the chief, who does no more
than walk about and give tone to
the proceedings by his presence,
The men are set to work on differ
ent parts of the job by the sub
chiefs. Haying argued the matter
to finish, the subchiefs leave each
a katikiro in charge Of their men
and retire to discuss the news Of the
day.
These overseers then in turn
choose katikiros from the men Of
each village. In all probability
these katikiros again Will each ap-
point one OF two deputies, and as
no one labeled "katikiro" expects to
do any work himself the number Of
ordinary unSarnished lahoren left
to do the zeal work is very small
As the day goes on, even the@ men
often put boys to work IN their
places and Join the ranks Of the
"sitters ont." Some who have been
at work for an hour or two will rec
ollect that oncs they were appoint
ed vice subdeputy to somebody's un-
der assistant kati6p. They will
thereupon join on Of the groups
in the shada and at h1gth there
will be left only a half dozen boys,
and they scarcely make more than
q pretense Of working.
