GETTING RID OF COLDS.

The easiest and quickest way to
get rid of cold is to take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. This
preparation has been in use for
many years and its value fully
proven No matter what remedy
you use, however, care must be
taken not to contract a second cold
before you have recovered from the
first one, and there is serious danger
of this. A man of middle age or
older should go to bed and stay in
bed until fully recovered. 1t is
better to stay in bed three days at
the start than three weeks later on.

Tragedy Of Childhood.

Nothing is more despicable than to
deceive a child in any way. Their plas-
tic young minds receive and hold inn
pressiOns that We can never eradicate,
try we ever so hard. In spite of all
the grOwnups can say the little ones
nexer feel the same love and respect
for those who have deceived them.
Even careless funmaking may leave

cate. Do not break q promise to a

LIFE OF A DEPOT AGENT
His Duties Are Manifold and He Is
Envied by Few, According
to This.

Ine lie OF railway agent IS one OF
roses and cinders for the most part
Some folks think that about all he
has to do is to sell tickets and keep
the extra cent when he makes odd
change, but there are other things in
the life Of railway agent besides
framing your face in ticket office
window and opening money drawer
with doorbell on it, and smiling when
the folks ask him what time the 8 :03
train will be here If it's on time.
From early in the morning when he
starts the day by looking into the coal
bin at the end Of the platform to see
how much bituminous has been stolen
during the night, until shutdown, when
he starts out to hang drug store signs
on the switch posts, he is an extremely
busy man. says the Walker (Minn.)
Pilot. Between checking over freight
receipts and running the hay press
for the carbon copies Of waybills, it's
no wonder he hasn't time to build a
fire In the waiting room or rub off last
weeks train schedule from the black
board, because he is a busy man.
He listens to complaints with one ear
and the telegraph keys with the other.
and has been known to answer the
phone, sell q steamship ticket and put
a bucket of coal in the stove all at the
same time, in order to get his work
done within the eight-hOur schedule.
About the only ones to envy an
agent his job are the girls in the
town, and that's because he has such
good chance to get acquainted with
the brakemen on all the freights.
