celluloid or a composition mostly OF
sour milk. Imitation pearls are gen.
orally made of fish scales.
Among the artificial or semi-pre-
| cious beads you will see most often are
topaz. amethyst quartz, crystal
quartz, rose quartz, black onyx and
Chinese ivory.
The "indestructible glass beads
one buys are solid pieces of glass
each with d hole pierced through the
center. These, in contrast with the
blown glass beads, are quite heaVy
of fish scale composition which colors
them and gives them gloss.
Then. there are the popular and
effective wooden beads. These are
of bass wood. They are simply cut
out of the wood with knives, then
FURNISHED in barrels and japanned,
painted or enameled.
If you buy expensive beads OF any
sort, even though they're not genu-
inc stones. it will pay you to have
your jeweler examine them occa-
sionally and restring them if there
is any question of the strength OF
the string they are on. You can
examine your cheaper beads yourself,
and if necessary restring them. The
owner of even good imitation pearls
should take them to jeweler to be
cleaned; with the more moderate
and not difficult, to clean them your
self. Don't use a needle in restring-
ing beads; have a piece of beeswax
instead and wax the thread, using
the waxed point as you would
needle

Nose Cough.


Chest coughing is only too well
known to everybody. Throat cough
ing is familiar to regular church
goers. Possibly half a dozen Of our
constant readers now know that
there is such a thing as ear cough
ing. Today we will consider nose
coughing. No scoffing. That's pre-
cisely what l mean.
Youngsters with coryza-that is,
an acute Inflammation of the lining
OF the nose-usually do more or less
coughing, particularly at night after
they have gone to bed. That is nose
coughing, of kind. OF course, il is
perfectly physiological coughing, the
cough being a quick, forcible expira-
tory effort to expel the mucus or
other secretion which runs back into
the throat from the nose. Then there
is more chronic form of cough; that
is, a cough which keeps up for weeks
and. months, most noticeable in the
night, in children who have ade-
noids or chronic rhinitis Zone. of the
disease conditions which the layman
and the quack doctors dub "catarrh"),
and this is genuine nose cough, pro-
duced by excitation of branches of
the great pneumogastric nerve, which
nerve supplies the bronchial tubes
and lungs.
These two types OF nasal cough are
exceedingly common in children, and
both forms are subjected to much
maltreatment with alleged cough
medicines, thanks to the strange pen
chant of some parents for expert
menting upon their children. Most
of the popular cough medicines" do
accomplish certain things when ad-
ministered to children-they destroy
the appetite, impair the digestion,
bring on coSdvenesS and duh the
child's mentality and general sensi-
bi1ities-.
A nose cough, caused by acute an
trail simusitis in adults, generally
slow, hacking, persistent cough, is
produced by the constant post-nasal

drainage of secretion from the an
trum. The antrum is the sinus OF
| air space in the upper jawbone or
either side, normally communicative q
through a small orffce with the nose
cavity on that side.
In young adults or youths with
simple ahn chronis rhinitis, especially
involved in the infiammatory swell
ing and irritation, a nose cough is
very common, and in many cases has
led TO suspicion of lung tuberculosis
In some of these cases, at any rate
tne history and course of the trouble
suggests that the process may actu-
ally be tuberculous, but whether so
or not. recovery seems to be hastened
in many cases by open-air life, to-
gether with the proper direct medi-
cal treatment of the rhinitis Per-
haps the rhinitis is a mere complica-
ton of the lung tuberculosis. 1t is
dlfficult to speak with assurance
about that. So many of us when
young have mildly active tubercu-
losis and recover without having had
the condition diagnosed
would not have you think that
most coughs are nose coughs, but il
Is well to remember that in young
persons nose cough is common oc
currence, and the usual home treat
ment for cough is not only futile but
often harmful in the conditions re-
sponsibie for such cough.

LARDNER.
VARiATiofS-Iard
RACIAL oRIGlN-Enar,sh.
SOURCE-An occupation.

Lardner is by no means an infre-
quent family name, though probably
1t is most widely known when it has
Ring in front of it.
You might suspect from the first
syllable that the name originally had
something to do with the word
lard" In many cases when you sus-
pect things like this about a family
name you are wrong. But in this
case you would be right. There is
connection. In fact the name is
founded upon it. But the trade or
occupation through which the con-
nection was made is no longer re-
ferred to as it was in the middle
ages at the time when family names
were formed.
In medieval England the ~1ardner-
of -lardiner" (for you will find both
spellings) was a specific kind of
swineherd. His occupation was that
OF fattenihg or Hardening" pigs for
the market or for the tables of the
feudal lords. He had to be a good
bit of a forester, for he took his
herds into the woods to fatten them
upon acorns and nuts, and very often
he also held a commission as a forest
warden from his overload.
Originally, of course, the name was
descriptive Of the individuals occu-
patton, and in the old records YOU
will find many entries Of such names
as Hugo 1e Lardiner" and Roger lie
LArdner."

LANGUAGE INADEQUATE

Language is inadequate to fully
express the impression made upon
the minds of everyday folks. by that

We say this advisedly, although
"damnably outrageous" might be
permitted in polite society on an oc-
casion like this; but that doesn't ex-
press it.
Here is a banker of international
reputation standing before an audi
ence in a public place peddling out
rumors tending to implicate a be-
loved President of this country who
died in the public service and when
summoned to testify could only say
that he knew of no basis for the
rumors but thought it n public duty
to call attention to them so as to
stop them,
Probably every old gossip. mali
cious and otherwise. would attempt
to get by with the same pretext.
Right now the public is after the
truth and doesn't want to be con-
fused by gossip. Evidently some
would like to have the public con-
fused. Let the Investigation get at
the truth wherever it can be found.
Unfortunately gossipsF can't be
sealed into a chamber and poisoned
by their own gas.
