because OF the characteristic

whooping cough Is described usually
as the decline" Of the disease. The
cough now becomes less severe and
gradually disappears.
Whooping cough In young children
is dangerous in that il often leaves

diseases. More emphasis should be
placed upon this disease than has

wv rs? W. are mostly sealed books with the contents hidden
oft from ourselves. for what do we know about how " will

within the heart Of someone who il dear To Us That day il
st. Valentines Day and We all Of US should be grateful TO the
good saint who has become the patron saint of all lovers.
Cupid is at his busiest on Valentines Day. No one has ever
been able to compute how many arrows he has sent wingng on
their important mission on the day dedicated to lovers. The day is
a blessing for the many shy young men who for the life Of them
could never summon enough courage on any other day Of the year
to tell the object Of their alteration Just how much they really
do care.
Il does seem a pity that there is but one day IN the year
dedicated TO lovers. For we could all Of Us keep alirht perpetualiy

would be an open box. For love means perpetual youth.
