a last desperate one just as this was

The weather was rough. On the

over the heaving deck to her chair, col

she remarked to the deck-chair next

mummified in blankets.

SOMETHING FOR THAT
 WINTER COUGH

A reasonable amount of coughing is not only necessary but in itseli good for one who is subject tC chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasiS emphysema, or asthma. The physi. clan prescribing for such coughs generally preScribes expectorants
 medicines which produce, promote or aid coughing and expectoration It is Q grave mistake for Sub- jects of chronic bronchitis, winter cough, to take any kind of cough medicine containing any kind oi sedative or narcotic, except under medical instruction. 1ll-advised use of such medicines by subjects oi chronic bronchitis is a contributing cause of pneumonia in many cases in my opinion.
 If I knew of Q cough medicine good for that winter cough I'd pass the knowledge along here without a qualm of medical ethics. But I know of no such medicine. So the very best I can do Is to give the recipe for or Doc Brady'S Home Made Fool Proof Cough Medicine. It may not cure anything, but on the other hand 1t will do no harm to try 1t in any case of cri or cough, in man, woman or child. If you do prepare c batch and try 1t without definite benefit, no harm is done and we can still be friends, can't we? On the other hand, if you experience astonishing relief after taking the medicine for 8 day or 50, I'll be happy to hear about 1t, but 1t is not @ testimonial-after all, who knows you would not have had the same experience even though you had never heard of my medicine?
 Tn the event that there is any uncertainty or any apparent error in the printing of the recipe and directions, you will find 1t given in detail in the Cri book (Call 1t Cry) which you may obtain by mail if you send me Q stamped envelope bearing your address and, darn 1t all, ten cents for the booklet.

mas season is . proving ground for many worthwhile lessons. At no other time of the year are children SO alert so inpressionsble and 50 plastic. Anticipation, part of our old friend interest motive" makes it SO. In this mood, children are spprOachable and receptive. What an opportunity for parents to do c little gentle training on the side.
 Generosity should loom large now on the ChildS horizon. Let each one work and plan to give, even in . small wey, rather than prattle constantly about what he wants and his chances for set- ting 1t.

There Is something wrong with Christmas, that is with the way we present 1t to children.
 We say, ''Be good, and Santa will reward you" And Johnny begins aasiduously to scrub his teeth twenty-five strokes instead of wet- ting his hrush and hanging 1t back on the rack. Netty sorts the plates and puts them away properly in. stead of slipping the buttefplates in with the coffee aaucers. Brother stops yelling for endless drinks of water after being tucked in for the night. Oh, yes, they are very, very good.
 But still 1t Is not quite perfect. This kind of goodness" Smacks of the Pharisee who stood on the corner and called to heaven to note his virtue. Behold, oh Lord, I thy servant have Killed no one. I have not stolen, or coveted or eossiped about my neighhor who didn't pay his bills." T, Johnny, have not pulled the cats tail, Santa, or copied my nightwork." Only Negatively 0ood
 This isn't half of it. All this is negative goodness. It is doing what one should do anyway with. out being bribed.
 What Santa Claus expects, I am sure, is more on the Samaritan order, doing active good for other people. Making friend, enemy and stranger alike feel better. Turning our lazy hands and indif- ferent hearts to giving . fellow be- ing 8 lift.
 Christmas is coming. Most chil- dren have the "gimmie's" at this time of the year. You can't blame them, but you can suggest that they earn their bonuses. Turn their thoughts to other children who are less fortunate. Show them how to make little gifts, for instance, for the stranger in the neighborhood, or the little chap whose mama works all day long and will come home late on Christmas Eve with q hast fly bought toy or two, too tired to trim 9 tree or cook e turkey.
 There is scarcely . child who doesn't live within two stones throw of some boy or girl who needs friendship and . feeling of being in things at Christmas time. Here is an opportunity to be good" in earn. est. Both spiritually and psycholog. ically 1t is good for the soul. Self. ishness gets in 50 many home.r,,ns at Christmas time, that something should be done about 1t.
