CATARRfiA
e
COUGH
Is Caused by Catarrh of the Throat
and Bronchial Tubes.
Some coughs are produced by a grave
organic disease of the lungs. Other
coughs are produced by heart disease.
An irritable stomach will produce a
cough. Stomach coughs are more com
mon than is penerally supposed.
Catarrh will also produce a cough.
Catarrh of the bronchial tubes. Ca
tarrh of the larynx. Catarrh of the
pharynx.
In a catarrhal cough the amount of
expectoration is limited. It is not so
easy to raise as in cases of organic dis
eases of the lungs. It may be frothy
or stringy mucus, difficult to expecto
rate. People will go on for months
with this sort of a cough and give it no
attention.
Ordinary cough medicines that are
intended to lull the sensitive nerves
that are irritated by the catarrh will
do no good. In fact, they do, harm.
What is needed is Peruna, which
strikes at once at the cause of such a
cough. Peruna is a catarrh remedy.
As soon as the catarrh is removed from
the throat and bronchial tubes the
cough disappears.
Usually the directions on the bottle
are sufficient. In some cases where
the cough is very continuous and an
noying a tablespoonful every hour is a
better way to take it But a multitude
of people who are suffering with this
sort ot cough and yet going about their
usual business need only take the Peru
na according to the directions on the
bottle.

WAS WITHIN PALE OF LAW
Unfeeling Father Burled Child as On
Might a Dog, but He Could
Not Be Punished.
Can a man be punished for falling
to provldo a Christian burial for his
deceased Infant child 7 In the recent
case of Beaton vs. commonwealth, 149
Southwestern Reporter, 871, defend
ant was convicted on such a charge,
and appeals to the court of appeals
of Kentucky, the docket states. A
child of the defondant having died,
he set about to bury it. Taking some
piece of rough board, be made a rude
box to serve as a coffin. Although be
bad good lumber out of which he
could bave made a better and more
presentable box, be said that be did
not propose using his good lumber
for this purpose. This box was taken
to a point in the woods lot and a
grave dug by two neighbors about
two feet deep. Defendant brought the
corpse from the bouse In a small pa
per box to where the grave was be
ing dug, placed it upon the ground
and assisted in digging the grave.
When completed, the paper box with
the corpse was placed In the wooden
box and lowered. The grave was then
filled to a level with the surrounding
ground, defendant assisting by tramp
ing the dirt as It was being put back
Into the grave.
No services of any kind were beard
at the grave. Do these facts consti
tute a crime? The court holds that
It wai the right of the defendant to
select the place where his child should
be burled, and be Tlolated no law or
duty In selecting a spot la the woods
rather than In a cemetery. There 1b
no rule of law defining how a corpse
shall be dressed for burial, or the
character of coffin or casket la which
It should be Incaeed, or the ma
terial out of which the box In which
the coffin Is to be placed shall be
made, nor the depth of the grave; nor
Is it an offense not to notify relatives
aua friends so that they may be pres
ent at the Interment, for they have
no legal right to be present. There Is
no law Imposing upon those having In
charge the burial of the dead any duty
to have the interment accompanied
with religious ceremony. The court
concludes with the following: "It was
no doubt the extremely miserly and
niggardly disposition manifested by
appellant that aroused the Indignation
of his neighbors, causing the indict
ment, and ultimately Induced the Jury
to assess the fine against him which
It did. While, by the facts 1n the
record, appellant is shown to be
man utterly lacked in parental in
stinct, he bas kept himself within the
pale of the law. At the conclusion
of the evidence the trial Judge should
bave directed a verdict In his favor."
Public Men and Sleep.
The declaration of Doctor Foertmey
er of Cincinnati, that seven hours ol
sleep are enough for any man, and
that the fellow who indulges himself
in the arms of Morpheus for a longer
period every night is in danger of in
juring himself, comes so closely upon
the heels ot President Wilson's flat
that he must have nine hours that It
is certain to start a controversy al
most to end nowhere, for if there Is
one thing in which every man is a law
unto himself. It is in the matter of
sleep.
Ex-President Taft, normal man in ev
ery respect, enjoys as much sleep as
President Wilson needs. Apparentlj
there is no reason why President Wtt
son should not Bleep as long as be
likes, for Mr.. Taft does. He retires
at midnight usually, and arises only
in time for a nine o'clock breakfast;
so it will be seen that the routine of
a president's day is not incompatible
with feather bed indulgence. McKln
ley was a light sleeper, being a night
owl and an early riser, while Grover
Cleveland dearly loved to sit up until
a late hour with a few cronies, evi
dently being of the opliion, as the
poet has it, that the best way to
lengthen one's days Is to steal a few
hours from the night.

HOW I MADE
MY HAIR GROW
Woman With Marvelonsly Beautiful
Hair Gives Simple Home Prescrip
tion Which She Used With Most
Remarkable Results.
I was greatly troubled with dandruff and falling
hair. I tried many advertised hair preparations
and varioua prescriptions, but they all signally
failed: many of them made my hair greasy so it
was impossible to comb it or do it up properly.
I think that many of the thing's I tried wera posi
tively injurious and from my own experience I
cannot too stronirly caution you against using
preparations containing- wood alcohol and other
poisonous aubstances. I believe they injure the
roots of tha hair. After my long list of failures,
I finally found a simple prescription which I can
unhesitatingly state is beyond doubt the most
wonderful thing for the hair I have ever seen.
Many of my friends have also used it, and ob
tained wonderful effecta therefrom. It not only
is a powerful stimulant to the growth of the hair
and for restoring gray hair to its natural color,
but it is equally good for removing dandruff, giv
ing the hair life and brilliancy, etc., and for ths
purpose of keeping the scalp in fjat-clas con
dition. It also makes the hair easier to comb and
arrange in nice form. I have a friend who used
it two months and during that time it has not
only stopped the falling of his hair and wonder
fully increased its growth, but it practically re
stored all of his hair to its natural color. You can
obtain the ingredients for making thia wonderful
preparation from almost any druggist. The pre
scription is as follows:
Bay Rum. 6 oz.; Menthol Crystals, H drachm;
Lavona de Gomposee', 2 oz. If you like it per
fumed add a few drops of To-Kalon Perfume,
which mixes perfectly with the other ingredients.
This, however, is not necessary.
Apply night and morning; rub thoroughly into
the scalp.
Go to your druggist and ask for an eight ounce
bottle containing six ounces of Bay Rum; also one
half drachm of Menthol Crystals, and a two-ounce
bottle of Lavona de Composee'. Mix the ingre
dients yourself at your own home. Add the Men
thol Crystals to the Bay Rum and then pour in
the Lavona de Composee' and add the To-Kalon
Perfume. Let it stand one-half hour and it is
ready for use.

CARE AND U&E OF CASSEROLE.
.
Excellent Servant of the Cook Must
Have Proper Treatment, and This
Advice Is Good,
Before using a casserole for the first
time, it is well to temper it; this is
best done by covering it with cold
watr. Then letting the water come
to the boiling point, remove from the
fire, and let the casserole remain In
the water until It is cold.
Under no circumstances let the cas
serole be put on the stove without
water or fat in it; if this is done the
dish will crack. ,
Avoid sudden changes of tempera
ture with the casserole; that is, do not
take it from the hot stove or oven
and place it In cold water or in a
wet sink; this will prove disastrous
to the dish.
Casserole cooking require only
moderate heat; it something is being
cooked in the casserole at the same
time that intense heat is required
for something else, take the precau
tion of setting the casserole in a pan
of water.
In cooking anything in a casserole
It is well to allow twice the time for
cooking that would be required were
the atew or vegetables or fruit cook
ed in the ordinary way.

Lemonade Ginger Punch.
Five lemons, one cupful of sugar,
one cupful of boiling water, ginger ale,
fresh mint, cold water, one-half heap
ing teaspoonful of gelatin. Wash the
lemons and slice them; then sprinkle
over the sugar. Let stand for 30 min
utes, and then add one quart of cold
water. Dissolve the gelatine In the
boiling water and add it to the lemon
mixture. Pour the whole into a punch
bowl and add the. ginger ale, allow
ing one quart of ginger ale for each
quart of the other liquid. Half an
hour before serving add a few stems
of fresh mint
For the Shopping Bag.
Sew a very large safety pin In your
shopping bag. Then hang by means
of smaller safety pins your door key,
samples of cloth, memoranda and such
things. They will be handy when you
open the bag and save poking down
and around and about the bottom of
the bag for these things.
Banana Pie.
Line a deep plate with rich crust and
bake a delicate brown. Filling: Take
a scant cup of sugar in your sauce pan
and cream into a generous teaspoon
of butter (not melted), beat In the
yolks of two eggs and two tablespoons
flour, and a cup of boiling water and
cook, stirring constantly until thick.
Add a little vanilla after this cream la
cool. Slice into the crust a layer of
bananas alternated with a layer of
cream. There should be two layers of
each. Frost with the whites of two
eggs, beaten stiff, with two teaspoons
of sugar. Brown in oven. Servo

Queen Victoria Detested Tobacco.
The number of smoking rooms now
distributed over Windsor castle
would considerably astonish Queen
Victoria could she but see them. Her
late majesty could never bring herself
to do more than tolerate the weed In
any form, and the smoking room was
always relegated to a very distant
part of her various residences. Nor
were the guests permitted to solace
themselves with a quiet smoke in
their own apartments, as on their ar
rival they were specially warned not
to do so.
Step to Your Own Drum.
Why should we be in such desper
ate haste to succeed, and in such
desperate enterprises? If a man does
not keep pace with his companions,
perhaps it is because he hears a dif
ferent drummer. Let him step to
the music which he hears, however
measured or far away. It is not im
portant that he should mature as soon
as an apple tree or an oak. Shall he
turn his spring into summer?
