Perils We Overlook,

OF the many perils that beset the av-
erage individual one of the most serious
is common cold. 1t is not the cold
itself that imperils our well being, but
the serious diseases which it leads to.
Consumption usually starts from cold
or a succession of colds. 1t is a germ
disease, and the germ diseases are most
likely to be contracted when you have
a cold. A child that has a cold is more
likely to contract diphtheria or scarlet
fever than one who has not. For this
reason every cold should be regarded
as peril and gotten rid of as quickly
as possible. Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy will help you throw it off. Try it.
1t only costs a quarter.-Adv.

Personal Ambition.

Personal ambition is quite hon
orable motive. The desire for approval
and praise is something which nobody
should despise. But man should not
stake everything upon those; other
wise, when his works fail to obtain
recognition he is disappointed. He
should have in himself as his primary
motive something which makes him
independent OF those things. some
thing which prevents him from doing
all those little things which impede
public work. and make 1t difficult for
men to work with others-Sir Edward
Grew
