Croup and Cough Remedy.
Croup is a terrible disease, it at
tacks children so suddenly they are
very apt to choke unless given the
proper1 remedy at once. - There is
nothing better in the world than Dr.
King's New. Discovery. Lewis Cham
berlain, of Manchester, Ohio, writes
about his children: "Sometimes in
severe attacks we were afraid they
would die, but since we proved what
a certain remedy Br. King's. New
Discovery is, we have no fear. We
relyon it for croup, coughs and colds"
So can you.' 50c and $1.00. A bot
tle should be in every home. At all

BRITISH : UNIFORMS
Significance of Those Displayed
on Dress Parade.
STYLES WON BY BRAVE ACTS.
Distinctions That Date Baok Many
Years and Mark Deads of Daring on
the Battlefield Brilliant Color and
Picturesque Costumes.
The kbukl service dress of the Brit
ish army submerges into one drab hue
all the great color that formerly char
acterized the various regiments, and
during the army maneuvers the great
boats of men at arms look all alike.
Nevertheless .the separate organiza
tions still maintain their individual
uniforms for dress parade, and. as In
the United States, almost every uni
form is conspicuous by some' pecullai
dlstinction-a distinction that dates
back many years along the path of
England's glory. . ,
For Instance, sergeants of the Somer-
?ewn,re "gOTi . my
known officers in the service who wear
te gagn over m Ieft 8h0ulder. Offl-
cera formerly wore their sashes in this
fashion, and In one engagement all the
lieutenants and captains of the Somer
setshire Light Infantry were killed or
wounded, and the sergeants performed
their duties. Thus their triumph Is re
membered. '
The men of the Gloucestershire regi
ment wear their badges at the back of
their headdress as well as at the front,
a distinction granted because when the
first battalion was defending an im
portant outpost In Egypt in 1801 they
were suddenly attacked lu the rear,
but by turning quickly about success
fully beut off their assailants.
That picturesque bearskin grenadier
cap. worn alone by the Scots Greys of
all the cavalry, dates from the battle
of Rnmilllcfi, In 170C, when the regi
ment captured three battalions of the
Plcardy French grenadiers.
The Royal Welsh fusiliers is now the
only regiment that retains the "flash,"
five black ribbons bunging from the
bnck of the collar of the tunic, original
ly worn to protect the coat from the
grease used In plaiting a cue of pig
tails. The "flash" was abolished
throughout the army while the regi
ment was abroad, but on its return the
commanding officer appealed to King
William IV. to be allowed to retain It
' White Jackets are worn by the ranks
of the foot guards when not In dress
uniform. The grenadiers wear a white
goat's hair plume on the left side of
the bearskins, a red band round the
forage caps, and the buttons of the
tunic are set at equal Intervals; the
Coldstream guards wear a red feather
pi nine at t!:e rljrht side of the bear
skin, a white band on the forage cap.
and the buttons are set In twos; Scots
, guards have no plume In the bearskin.
I a diced band for the cap and the bujt
' tons In threes, while the Irish guards
have a plume of St. Patrick's blue In
the bearskin, a green bund for the cap
and the buttons In fours. The First
Life guards can always be distinguish
ed from the Second by the sheepskins
black sheepskins for the First and
white for the Second. '
There are plenty of other distinctions
arranged to tell the regiments. The
only lancer regiment that Is clothed In
scarlet Is the Sixteenth, the only dra
goons in blue the carabineers. The
household cavalry Is the only troop to
wear the cuirass. The Highland Light
Infantry alone among highland regi
ments is not kilted, but wears pluld
trousers, shako and not the feather
bonnet. The shako is also worn by the
Cameronians. the only rifle regiment
to do so.
A soldier wearing a bugle on his
shoulder strap belongs to a light infan
try regiment, another wearing a gre
nade to a fusilier regiment and a red
baud round a cap with blue facing
marks a soldier of a royal regiment.
The only highland regiment with a red
hackle in the feather bonnet Is the
"Black Watch;" in all others It Is
white. Loudon Cor. New York Trib
