A tickling cough, from any cause, is quickly stopped by Dr. Shoop’s Cough Cure. And it is so thoroughly harmless and safe, that Dr. Shoop tells mothers everywhere to give it without hesitation, even to very young babes. The wholesome green leaves and tender stems of a lung-healing mountainous shrub, furnish the curative properties to Dr. Shoop’s Cough Cure. It calms the cough, and heals the sore and sensitive bronchial membranes. No opium ,no chloroform, nothing harsh used to injure or suppress. Simply a resinous plant extract that helps te heal aching lungs. The Spaniards call this shrub which the Doctor uses, “The Sacred Herb.” Demand Dr. Shoop's. Take no other. W. H. Nachtrieb.

LAWYER AS CITIZEN (Continued from page 2.) and in the statute books of nature, for man’s use, pleasure and delight we find the hill and dale, the moun-tain-rose and the lilies in the valley. The more prosaic law, governing the conduct of men in human affairs, is man-made, representing the supreme power of man-made boundaries, avering what is right, prescribing remedies and penalties for wrongs. And in these man-made laws, lies the safety of the citizen and the welfare of a country. | The lawyer is one who is skilled in the knowledge of these, and the one who nearest approaches the perfect qualities of manhood, who lives to promote the brotherhood of man and the rules established by the Creator of the universe, is not only a good lawyer, but the best lawyer and the best and highest type of citizen. To err is human, and the frailties of human nature, the difficulty of human minds to understand the rules and sequences of the affairs of life, gives occasion for the citizenship of those, who by superior attainments, are best able to demonstrate and explain, and thus, the lawyer is a necessity. But this difference between the trained and untrained mind, the developed power of reasoning, and the want of it, together with innate imagination, and a lack of sober thought, has brought upon the lawyer in all ages, unjust criticism and unfair censure; and as one black feather may prevent an otherwise bird of beauty from being eligible to entry in the fanciers list; as one black sheep may cast suspicion on the flock, so one unscrupulous lawyer may cause the people to look askance upon the profession and say the lawyers are a dishonest lot. If, perchance, they point with fiendish glee to such an one and what man might not grievously err in life —we answer with modest and becoming pride, that no walk in life, no business or profession, contains more honorable and upright men. No manmade law in all the world, no act upon the statute book in any land, that does not show the handiwork of the man that’s skilled in law; no provision within the lids of any book for the bereaved widow and the helpless orphan child, that was not inspired by men of the greatest of all professions —the lawyers—no business of any magnitude; no undertaking that’s startling to the world; no wheel of progress moves, but what the lawyer’s knowledge was the guidance of the effort. To him come the stories of infelicities, sorrows and afflictions; within his breast, mayhap, are locked the secrets, which laid bare, might cause the finger of scorn to point, where respect is only shown. He’s the minister’s friend, the doctor’s counsel, the merchants adviser, and the help of many a weary, stormtossed soul on the sea of life. He acts without fear, and though the laborer is worthy of his hire, he often acts without favor, conscious that in right doing there is self satisfaction, unconscious that he is demonstrating to the world, that "an upright man is the noblest work of God” and that the lawyer is the safety valve of His universe.

Notwithstanding the innate suspicion of laymen, these facts are recognized by men in every avenue of life, and that is why, I admonish my brethren, to avoid doing, in some unguarded moment, any act that might bring discredit or cast suspicion upon the profession. There is much expected of the lawyer, as he not only makes the laws, but, when you stop to think about it he executes them as well, and that is why he should be a model of citizenship, a man of morals, his integrity undoubted, and his character beyond reproach. The lawyer with these essentials of developed manhood, will see luster to his career, honor to his profession, respect of his fellowmen and the love of the community in which he resides, and thus, God-fearing and Christ-loving, by precept and example, he may say to every man in every highway and byway of live, as Thanatopsis says: “So live, that when thy summons comes to join the innumerable caravan that moves to the realms of shade, where each shall take His chamber in the silent halls of death. • Thou go not, like the quarry slave a* night Scourged to his dungeon, but soothed and sustained By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.” • HAB LOST HOPE. L. G. Botkin, Faris, Ky., says: "I had ■« hopes of saving my bogs. ai KXX« of them eosld sot eat. I drenched them with Boarbes Bag Cholera Remedy dM set beae a hog." THB KOLTROUM DRUG CO.
