Requests for the address of Mary Piekford have come to the office. AdMress letters. to 270 Riverside Drive, New York.

In my opinion, there is no relationship in the world so filled with possibilities of mutual helpfulness as that of father and daughter. The mother warns. The father, in a larger sense, protects. If her life has been the sheltered one of the majority of women she can only Judge men by her father, her husband, her brothers and her sons. Seeing no evil in them, she .lacks the Instinct of detecting it in others for her experience all through life has been only with men who are honorable; he knows more dishonorable men in . one day than she dreams the whole world holds. . I never see a man with his daughter hanging lovingly on his arm that I do not want to cheer. It means so much more to her than either dreams of now, and It must mean a great, great deal to the wife and mother at home to know that-euch perfect comradeship exists between the two she loves most. But It Is not all cheer in my heart. I must confess to a feeling akin to envy, for I have no father. An Unfading Memory. He died when I was four, and I was his favorite child. If there are any who believe a child forgets in a day

look at me and learn that the memory of childhood unhappily Is longer. I did not forget, him in a day. M never forgot him, and the. plays, in which I appeared as a child unfortunately bad

the lines to remind me of mr loss.

In "Silver King," in which I first appeared, the first lines I ever spoke on the stage were to the man who took the part of a father to me. The next play was "East Lynneln which I played the little boy who died, and at five I was dying every night as Little

Eva in "Uncle Tom's Cabin," and al though I died in a most realistic man

ner, I never had an encore to do it again.. It always fell to me to play death scenes, and I grew up with the ambition to see everybody ' in tears, for then I knew that I had died well. There Is one place where Little Eva holds out her arms, and says: "Papa, I am coming." At a rehearsal one afternoon, when my father had been dead only a year, I held out my arms

and with all the pathos I could put

into my voice cried, "Papa, I am coming."

There was a loud and prolonged howl from a seat down in front. It

grew to be a shriek, and the rehearsal

was stopped, and every one ran. It

was my sister, Lottie. Every one was

getting puzzled and alarmed, for she

continued ' to shriek. They finally calmed her down, and between sobs

For Bronchitis, Coughs, Bronchial ! Asthma and Whooping Cough ' ' 'i Cheapest Remedy Made at Home 128 Teaspoonsful for 25 Cents

The first 300 persons calling at Clem Thistlethwalte's will be entitled to a regular 50c bottle at Schlffmann's New Concentrated Expectorant . for half price (25c) by presenting the cou

pon below, properly signed, with a view to giving those who have not yet used this new excellent remedy an opportunity of trying it, in the treatment of Bronchial affections, including Bronchitis, Whooping Cough; Croup, Severe Coughs, Colds and Hoarseness, to prove its merits, these druggists are willing to allow the public the profit which they would otherwise make and the proprietor is willing to lose money on the same, bo as to give them an opportunity of trying it, at partially their expense, knowing it will be found the best medicine. Even though not in need of a Cough or Cold Medicine at the present time, It will pay to buy now, as some such medicine is sure to be required before the winter is over, but this remedy cannot be obtained at less than full price again. Besides making this reduction, those druggists guarantee this remedy just the same as Dr. Schlffmann's famous Asthmador, and will return the money In every single in

stance if it does not give perfect satisfaction and even more if it is not found the best remedy ever used for any of the above complaints. This excellent remedy is sufficiently concentrated so that 50 cents' worth, when mixed at home, with simply one pint of granulated sugar and one-half pint of water (according to printed directions ( makes a whole family sup ply (128vteaspoonsfuls) while bottles of the old, regular, ready-made kinds, of doubtful merit, arid without a guarantee, usually average 20 to 32 teaspoonsful. It is prepared from strictly harmless plants, contains absolutely no cholorbform, opium, morphine or any narcotic or injurious drugs which do most cough remedies, and can therefore be given to children with perfect safety. It is pleasant to take and children are

fond of it. Besides absolutely no rlski

is run in buying this remedy whatever, one the guarantee of the above, well known, reliable druggists who will refund your 25c if it is not found the

best remedy ever used. If a neighbor or friend could be in-1 duced to divide and pay for half the ; quantity, the cost would thus only be j about 12c to each.
