Coughed in the Night.

My boy, writes a young mother, Is
8 years old. He never coughs in the
daytime, but every night between IL
and 3 o'clock he has a spell of cough
ing, a real bark. The attacks are
very mild and he is robust child, but
I should like to relieve him entirely Of
these night coughing spasms. have
proved your statement that cold air is
soothing and tends to relieve the child.
I wonder If this is kind of Group?
If 1t is, please tell me how to manage
Group. Mrs. s. w. A.
No, that is not Group, though the
barking cough may be correctly de-
scribed as "croupy," because it sounds
like the peculiar barking cough OF a
youngster developing spasmodic Group.
More likely this child's cough is due
to enlargement Of some lymph NODES
(kernels) in the neck, consequent upon
infection entering through a lesion OF
the nose, throat teeth or ears. not
uncommon cause of such cough in
child not long after the child has gone
to bed is the irritation Of the back OF
the throat by secretion which drains
the child lies on his back. This Is an
indication for a careful examination
of the nose by means Of headlight and
speculum, and the treatment of what
ever little trouble the doctor finds.
Often it Is a simple chronic rhinitis.
Obviously it is not fair to such a child
to ply him with alleged cough medi-
cines when he needs to have his nose
treated by the doctor.
Apparently Group still happens,
though I had begun TO think simple
spasmodic Group had passed into his
tory along with long-legged red flannel
underwear But Group is another
story, and any reader interested in
these historical matters may send
stamped envelope bearing the address
and ask for advice about Group.
There is still one other occasional
cause of such barking cough, in child
or adult that is worth knowing. Some

times the accumulation of hardened ear
wax in a mass or plug in the ear canal
irritates a spot on the wall of the canal
where branch of the nerve that sup
plies the bronchial tubes is distributed
in the skin. The irritation is reflexly
responsible for spells of harsh cough
ing, to no purpose. Nature playing a
little joke. This is just another good
reason for going to the doctor for an
examination for any such annoying and
persisting trouble. I said doctor, not
specialist Any doctor worth consult
ing at all is competent to deal with all
these things.
Finally, chronic infection in the
nasal passages or in the sinuses COM
municating with the nasal passages is
a much more frequent cause of chronic,
obstinate cough than many doctors
know. They don't know because they
either neglect to examine the nasal
chambers properly or they do not get
the opportunity.

When, under the big brush pile in
the Green Forest, Buster Bear was
awakened by the barking of Flip the
Terrier, he was first in a bad temper,
as many folks are when suddenly
aroused from sleep. He was wide awake
almost at once, and ne knew right away
that that dog had found his hiding
place and knew he was In there. He
knew by the barking that 1t was q
small dog that was making all that
noise, and he wasn't afraid of q small
dog. For that matter, he wasn't afraid
of any dog. or course, not. He was
simply annoyed and angry. Then he
heard the voice Of Farmer Browns Boy,
and fear took the place of anger. He
didn't know 1t was Farmer Browns Boy
All he knew was that one of those two
legged creatures that he had long ago
learned were the only ones for whom
he need have either respect or fear had
found his retreat, and instantly fear
took possession of him.
What should he do? At first he de-
cided to remain right where he was.
But the longer he remained doing moth
ing the greater grew his fear. It be-
came panic. He just couldn't stand
it any longer. No, sir: he couldn't
He must get away from there. You
know what happened then. He charged
out from under the brush pile, fright
ening Flip almost to death. Flip then
tripped up Farmer Browns Boy and the
latter fell headlong with yell of fright,
quite as badly scared as was Flip. That
yell added to Busters fright and gave
him much more speed. He had but one
thought, and that was to get away
from there and do it in the quickest
possible time.
Now Bear, even such big Bear as
was Buster, can travel surprisingly fast
when he is in a real hurry. and Buster
was in real hurry. He crashed through
brush and bumped into trees and didn't
even know it. He just kept on going.
Where he was going he didn't know.

save that he was going to get away
from that part of the Green Forest and
waste no time in doing it. He crashed
into thicket where Lightfoot the Deer
had been taking a nap. Lightfoot had
just bounded to his feet when Buster
came crashing in. Lightfoot plunged
wildly out and away, quite as fright
ened as was Buster Bear, and the noise
he made added to Busters fright. He
tried to run faster.
From almost under his nose Thun-
derer the Grouse whirred away with q
noise of stout wings that in his panicky
state seemed to Buster like the roar Of
a terrible gun, and he fairly whimpered
aloud. He ran until he couldn't run

for the breaks. There was determined
look on his face. He was just waiting
until Thomas had talked himself out.
The threat that he would hear more
about Indians than he had ever heaI9
before in his life left him unmoVed.
His attitude seemed to be that he well
coined the opportunity.
There was, however, one thing he
would insist upon-Thomas should be
the only one to instruct him. He would
permit no Indian talk from any one
else.
So when his brother Senator from
Utah, King, interrupted Smcot gave
him to understand that he could only
ask a question. When Copeland of
New York tried to get consideration on
an urgent measure concerning the Dis
trict of Columbia, and assured Smoot
it would take only minute, he found
Smoot Directing.
When Phipps of Colorado asked to
submit routine report on nominations,
Smoot said no" Gillette of Massachu-
sets asked to have something printed in
the Record, but Smoot was adamant.
Frazier Of North Dakota attempted to
read something pertaining to the In
dams, but Smoot stopped him.
At last Thomas, very tired and exas-
perated, sat down. There was real feel
ing in his voice when he said:
During eight years l have been I'M
able to reach his (Smoot's) heart. I
have failed this time"

the fact that your mind was set" to

you got to 1t. There are three factors
entering into the mental set in this
case.
First, the letters in the four words
are arranged in an unusual way--with
hyphens between letters. This tends to
break up your habits of pronunciation.
In the second place the words are
not used in a sentence. This takes
away any associated meaning. Words
standing alone do not convey COM

Third, pronouncing the words in

The similarity does not exist. 1t is

When Anna Marie got married she
was brimful Of wonderful ideas about
mated life. And especially about
breakfast In her new home. There
were always to be fresh flowers and
clean linen and the daintiest Of serv-
ice-the food always to be carefully
prepared and served for this, the most
irving meal Of the day.
Well, that worked out beautifully
the first three months. Then it grew
increasingly hard to get up in time to
serve those lovely little meals and
gradually the budget had difficulties In
providing the fresh flowers The last
straw was sighted when her husbands
business hours were changed so that
he had TO leave the house at 7 am,
which meant breakfast at the unearthly
hour Of $50.
