A cattle dealer from Montana, in

in the Times Square section. A steak
for two was among the things or

The best chance for advancement
of an office boy seems to be in the
theatrical field. Five former office
boys are producers this,year Seven
are managing theaters and eight are
publicity men for theatrical attrac-
tions. All of them naturally are
writing plays on the side. which is
the big ambition of every one con-
nected with the theater, from jani-
tor up.
New York has a squad Of detec-

young men who give the appear

fashion and keep an eagle eye out
for Irritation.
The other day a pretty, innocent
appearing young maid smiled at one
of them. He smiled back and she
stopped and waited for him to come
to her. He did, planning. of course,
to place her under arrest.
The story is one that might well
be elaborated into a short story or

ognized him for an old sweetheart,

second child is very much under
weight. She is 5a years old and
weighs thirty-four pounds, dressed.
l have great trouble in making her
eat. She seems strong, yet she is
thin. is there anything that wrl

The question of food is not the
only thing to consider. You must
observe certain hygienic rules, such
as having this child go to bed at a
reasonably early hour, not later
than $3.50 at night. Keep the bed
room windows open.
Care must be observed to correct
constipation, to which end the child
must be taught to go to the toilet
at regular hour each day.
She should take from a pint to a
quart OF milk a day. =
IL may be advisable to have her
lie down for an hour after the noon
meal. Bundle her up well and let
her lie down in sunny room with
windows wide open.

When a person has an epileptic fit
he will often utter a peculiar cry
and then will fall to the ground
fOaming at the mouth, with face
red and contorted. The muscles of
the body and limbs will twitch and
frequently he will bite his tongue.
After the cOnvulsion passes the pa
tient will go into a deep sleep.
The object of first-aid treatment
is simply to prevent the patient
from hurting himself.
Do not attempt to stop the con-
vuIsiOns or to open the clenched
hands, as this will only serve to in
crease the cOnvulsive movements.
The patient should be kept quiet.

Dry, Hacking Cough.
l have a little. girl who coughs
considerably. a dry, hacking cough.
I have been told the tonsils are the
cause. Is there anything which can
be done or any gargle to use to re-
duce them without having them re-
moved?
While the cough may be due to
some condition of the tonsils or the
throat it might also be due to some
other and more serious cause. For
this reason, I would advise you to
have your daughter carefully ex-
amined by a competent physician in
order to see whether she has any
thing the matter with her lungs.
You should also keep careful
watch over the childs general con-
dition and weigh her at least once
a week, keeping a record of these
weights for comparison to see
whether or not she Is gaining or
losing in weight or at a standstill
If she is losing weight or not
gaining in weight satisfactorily her
cough may be due to something
more serious than an infamed
tonsil.

A View With a Record.

The morning is fine. Thin wisps
or fog hang over the streams. It is
fortunate We awoke before sunrise
fogs are rare in this high plateau
and when they do occur they are
+, quickly dissipated by the rising sun,
From this elevated point you may
trace the south western and south
eastern boundary Of the county. The
line Of fog that hovers close to the
treetops is the Saluda. 1t separates
the county on the south west from

or rather the alluvial lands bordering
IT, for the Indians did not name riv-
ers. because the bottom lands were
fertile, they called the section through
which it flows Corn Land You NAV

the country for quite distance, by
an air line it is not more than ten or
twelve miles away. The same is true
or the southeastern boundary, thin
ribbon Of fog hangs over the Enorce,
you may see it now and then through
the gaps in the hills, mean the fog
bank. This river takes it's name
from Paris mountain, which the
Chcrokees called Enoree, Place of
Muscadines You may readily sec that
the county is not large, it embraces
o60,S0O square acres; it's average
length is only thirty miles and it's av-
erage breadth only twenty-four miles
Standing on this high point we have
the county spread out before us like
a map and may trace its water cours-
es by the fogs that hover close to the
water lines. You readily face the
TWO Rayburss as they sweep around
the bases OF the hills close to us, and

The thin line of fog southwest Of us,
Just across the Kush-ah is Walnut
creek. On line almost directly from
where we stand to Mt. Gallagher, the

formerly owned by William Scott, not
more than nine miles from us is a spot
where one Of Bloody Bill Cunning
hams atrocities was committed

My father, however, who was inform

than half a mile from the creek. in
the depression between the hills on
three sides, there is spring near
this spring there grew large white
oak, from limb Of this oak he stat

13 and II years Of age was hung by

father of the youth and a companion
were hiding near the Box home They
were mounted but unfortunately the
boy was riding a colt not thoroughly
broken. When discovered the father
and his fellow patriot made their es-
cape, ontriding the attacking party.
The colt, however, on which the boy
was mounted baked and was easily
captured by the Tories near the oak

ped long enough to hang the brave
little fellow from limb OF the oak,

at one end Of the field, in which the

The surprise was complete and
overwhelming. Hays and his men al
most without resistance were driven
into the house, and Cunningham's
pursuit was SO close, that John Tins

blow with his sword at Hays, as he

Druggists in Kentucky who sell
patent medicines which have been

companies from a wagon or other
place in the street, where the COM
panies state that they themselves
do not sell the medicine advertised,
but name the druggists from which
it can be obtained, legally are liza
BILE to be regarded as members of
the travelling troupes, and as such,
are subject to prosecution. Elwood
Hamilton, attorney for the State
Board of Health, has Informed the
Board in an opinion prepared at the
request of DR.. j. N. Mccormick, di-
rector of the Bureau of Sanitation
The opinion quotes the provision
of the statute which declares that a
druggist becomes personally liable
for the statutory penalty if he per-
mits one who is not registered
pharmacist to vend medicines" and
states that, for the purposes OF
prosecution, it would not be neces-

delivered to the offending druggist
by the company if it could be shown
that the articles were sold by the
druggist, and that the druggist an6
