Whooping cough is the 'tnlean- est" disease that childhood is heir to. While rarely fatal in itself, except to children under two years of age, still it hangs on so 1ong-the coughing paroxysms are so violent, preventing proper sleep and digestion-that when the disease does disappear 1t leaves the child weakened and run down. In addition the violent coughing racks and strains the air passages and after re- covery this irritation frequently remains.
 i During this period of conval- essence the child should be most carefully watched until full strength is restored and the air passages regain their normal tone. A prominent authority even goes so far as to say-"There is more criminal neglect in connection with whooping cough than with any other disease"
 While the disease is active, Vick's VapoRub usually helps to lessen the violence of the cough ing, but it is during conva1- essence that Viczs is most val uable.

On July 80, 1918, William Penn,
the Quaker, who founded Pennsyl-
vania, died in England, disheartened
and disconsolate. He had devoted the
better part of his life to establishing
a colony in the New World, and his
hopes had suffered many bitter dis
appointments. The cause of most OF
PENIS trouble in America was his
gullible nature. This weakness OF his
allowed many vicious and wicked men
to hoodwink him into sending them
out to represent him in his province.
Even his son William disappointed
and shocked him. When sent to
Pennsbury by his father, young Penn
was arrested in a drunken brawl in
Philadelphia and turned out of the
Quaker fellowship. Then internal
wrangling and pickering broke out in
the province, and things went from
bad to worse. In the midst of his
troubles the elder Penn wrote: 20,
Pennsylvania, what hast thou cost
me? About thirty thousand pounds
more than / ever got by it; two haz-
ardous and fatiguing voyages, my
straits and slavery here, and my
child's soul, almost"
At one time Penn was in such dire
straits that he thought seriously of
selling his g~overnorship. In 1712 a
transfer to the crown for 10000 fb S
was drawn up. ! A sudden illness suf-
fered by the Quaker, however, pre-
vented the document from being sign
ed, and it was later destroyed. Then
Penn neglected to inquire into the &C
counts of Ford, his manager in Eng
land and Ireland, and when Ford died
his heirs claimed that Penn was in
debted to them for over 10000.
Suits were brought against him, and
during a meeting he was arrested and
cast into the fleet.
At this dark hour in the Qauker's
life his friends showed their worth
and through their efforts a compro-
mise was effected with the Fords.
Penn was freed just about the time
news came from over the seas that
peace had been restored in Pennsyl-
vania. His burdens thus lightened
Penn retired to R~uscombe, in Berk-
sire. There, with his family about
him, he passed his last days. His
son and grandchildren were with
him. He wrote: eve are, major,
minor and minimus. 1 bless the Lord
mine are pretty well-Johnny, lively
Tommy, a lovely large child; and my
grandson, Spingett, a mere Saracen
his sister a beauty"
In 1712 Penn had a paralytic stroke
which weakened him considerably.
This stroke was followed by two 9TH
er ones, which seriously impaired his
body. He could still walk about his
garden, however, and meet people in
his home. His strength ebbed, how
ever, and after a few years he died.
His last written words for publica-
ton were the concluding ones of a
preface for John Banks Journal,
They we're: "Now, reader, before
take leave of thee, let me advise thee
to hold religion in the spirit, whether
thou prayest, praisest, or m%inisterest
to others.---which, that ell Gods
people may do, is, and hath long been,
the earnest desire of theirs and thy
faithful friend in the Lord Jesus
