Greatest of All "Everyone in San Antonio, Texas, says Hint Acker's Knglixh Uetnedy is tho greatest thing ever put up lor aniens, colds, asthma, bronchitis, croup mid consumption. 1 have been using it over four fears for nil forms of thront und lung trou les, mid have yet to come across u case where it failed. We have four little ones in our family, and neither my wife nor I have ever losta night's sleep because of throattrmv bles among the children. I guess that is more than any other family can say. Acker's English ltemeuy is just as effective for grown up people as for the young. It seems to go straight to the place where the trouble lies in the throat and bronchial tubes and lungs. It soothes and heals the irritated tissues, loosens up the phlegm and mucus in the breathing passages, quiets the nerves, invig orates the constitution and stops the cough ing. My advice to parents is to always keep a bottle in the house. U will be a constant safeguard atrainst croup." (Signed) F. G. Zimmerman, San Antonio, Tcs.

' A Voinnn Ovrrhonm llir Plntnt 11 1 n .Man Whom- Wife Vim In the Country. 'J' wo men hat behind the vine.-- of a se cluded erutula to smoke their after dinner cigars the other evening. As tlie smoked thi grew eoiilliieutial and told each other some secrets that were burdensome to their comfort. A woman sat within the house, near a window thai opened on the veranda. It was a warm night tint! the window was open. But the woman wuvMippose d to be reading, and the men forgot her ex istence. Hiiatehes of the conversation tloated in to her. and as the theme was particularly interesting 10 femininity the woman listencc'. It couldn't be wrong, she argued, because one man was her hiisbani: tint! the other was her dearest friend's husband. Their talk amused and interested her so much she told it to a friend, and that person re peated it in a newspaper olliee. anil so it was a secret 110 longer, says the Ituf falo Express. The theme of the men's eonversat ion Is not an unusual one in llutTalo this mouth. Dozens of other men could take part in it if they chose. The dearest friend's husband was trying to keep house while his wife and the children were in the country for a few ueks. "You know. C'litf'ord, I can make a cup of coffee and broil a steak- as well as the next person, but when it comes to washing dishes, 1 flunk, that's all. flow the women keep the dishes in shape is more than I know. Then it beats all how untidy the bridegroom gets. I can't understand it. for I never had any diflieulty in keeping my shoes, ties, collars and those khC of tilings in their place before. I suppose J forget to put them away now, that 1 have the breakfast to cook." The woman listening laughed, for she knew all about certain bags ant! linxe-, which her dearest friend had in which she stowed away her husband's soiled linen and handkerchiefs and kept his neckties straight. She remembered, too, her friend telling her she had left everything in apple pie order for Her bert. "He'll get along nieeii, ." t he lit tle woman had said, "for the Hat is in perfect order; there isn't a soiled ar ticle anywhere, and I've left a supply of cooked things and have told the milkman and baker to call ever morn ing' in time for breakfast." "It wasn't so bad until I had made my first breakfast," the voice on the veran da went on. "that was not a success, for after I had made the coffee and put on the eggs 1 sat down to read the pa per a minute. What's a minute when you want to find out about trie situa tion in China'.' But it was long enough for the coffee to boil all over the range and the eggs to get as hard as bricks. What coffee was left tasted queer, and 1 hadn't time to wash the dishes. 1 was sure I had used only one plate and a cup and saucer, but there was enough for half a dozen persons. After I tidied up the kitchen I thought I would look over the evening paper, when I remem bered I hadn't made my bed ye. I could have sworn burglars had been in the room, for there were more shoe.-, and neckties and things lying around than I could wear in a week. I eoiht'n't begin to put them away! .Marion has one of those long, narrow boxes for my neckties, and I tried 10 straighten the things' out and put them a way as I usually keep them, but it took too long.''' Again the woman on the other side of the window laughed softly, for she remembered her friend telling bow Her bert always tried every pair of s-hoi lie owned before he could decide which ones Ut wear and how his necktie box had to be tied every morning as regu larly us the brd was made. "It is two weeks now since .Marion weirt away," the man continued, "and though I have written her that every thing Is all rig-lit tint! that 1 enjoy housekeeping, I Ji'.iall be mighty glad to see her back. Every dish in the huiise wan used nearly a week ago, ant.' 1 have given up trying to wash more than the plate and cup I need for breakfast. After this I am going downtown for breakfast and I am going to send for the washerwoman tocoineand clear up the house. 1 told .Marion it wasn't nec essary to have anyone come in; that I could keep things going for a month all right. Our flat In so small there never seemed much to do, but either I am too busy at the otlice or I haven't felt so well as usual, for this house keeping beats inf." "You'll be glad when it is time for your wife to come home, eh 7" Mild the friend, 11 he knocked the nshes off the end of his cigar, anil the woman who listened made up her mind she would write her friend that very night and tell her how glad Herbert would be to s.ee her and the children.
