Coughing. “There's nothing so bad for a cough as coughing.’’ Coughing is like scratching a wound; so long as it is done, it will not heal. When tempted to cough draw a long breatli through the nostrils: hold it until It warms the air cells. The nitrogen thus refined, allays the desire to cough and gives the throat and lungs a chance to heal. The use of “Sev-enty-seven'' will aid nature in her efforts to recuperate.

Wilkins, if ynu^'U come out of \<mr trance and < U for your card' ■he game will proceed.’’ said the d" •or with growing Impatience, and cast dig wolfish eyes at the stacks of blue in 1 yellow checks in the center of :::* table. Wilkins came back to the present with a start. “Bog pardon, Doc.” he said, "Just tear me two off the roof Any two will do.” The doctor dealt two cards to him and holding up a queen aa a kickei to bis tbree nines, dealt one card tc bimself. lie squeezed his eards tight ly to see that none of them got away and slowly skinned them over with considerable misgivings, as he thought of several one-card draws against him To his great satisfaction he found a fourth nine. The opener on his left led off with a modest bet and the others simph made good, except Wilkins, who baii b "ghtened up all at once and seemed to take considerable interest In the situation. “if you people play poker with me you have got to have the goods,” Wil kins remarked. "Doc, just stack up alongside of that if you think well o* your hand,” he said as he dumped a stack of yellows defiantly in front ol him. and then put a stack of blues on top of the yellows. There was a dangerous gleam in the doctor's eyes as he Angered the billf that were under bis checks. "Well, mine are pretty good cards.' lie said, ‘Til just bet you $20 harder Mr. Man,” and pushed checks and money into the pot. \ sigh of distress went up from 'h» other players as they dropped their hands reluctantly into the discard It was up to Wilkins again. "Dor." he said, "I've got you beat, but 1'il jurt call you. I know you’ve been losei n this game, so I'M let you down easy.' The doctor glared fiercely oxer his spectacles at. his opponent. “Never you mind about me, you play yom band. I don’t want any of your sympathy.” Wilkins peeled two tens off Ms pile of hills and pushed them Into the jsit -aying nioanxvhile, "Now, my cldoily friend, will you kindly let us see "hat you are silting behind?” I'm sitting behind four of the Mg gest nines in the deck, that's what!" -napped the doctor Sorry, Doc,” said Wilkins as be drained his glass, "but they won't do; I have here a roval straight flush of hearts,” and he counted them down one at a time—“Ace. king, queen, ja; k en.” As he dropped the last card on •he table his face took on a troubled expression. The card was an eight, and not a ten of hearts. The doctor had been rapidly going into a state of nervous qpdlapse, but '*1 seeing the last card had recover© quickly. "I've been playing poker 40 yemw and that’s the first ten I ever saw with • >nly eight spots on it," he said, s-ar castically. He drew in the pot and glanced at his watch. "Great Scott!” he exclaimed, “1 had no idea it xvas so late. Here, cash these checks; I promised my wife I would take her to church to-night, and I just have time to get there.” V protest arose, but all to no effect. Never broke a promise to my wife in my life, and too late to begin now," the doctor said, getting Into his coat and moving toward tha door Spencer had taken no part in the effort to detain the winner, but now he inquired if the doctor did not live in Fifty-seventh street, between Eighth and Ninth avenues. "I do,” replied the doctor. "Will you pass Pringle s drug store on your way home?" he asked. The doctor said he would. "I hate to impose on your good na tuve, Doc," said Spencer, "but 11! esteem it a personal favor if you'll drop in there and see If Pringle has any thi:.ff to (me you of thj.-g cold feet.”—

FROM GIRLHOOD 10 WOMANHOOD
Mothers Should Watch the Development of Their Daughters— Interesting Experiences of Misses Borman and Mills.
Every mother possesses information which is of x itul interest to her younjj daughter. Too often this is never imparted or is withheld until serious burin has resulted to the growing girl through her ignorance of nature's mysterious and wonderful laws and penalties. Girls’ over-sensitiveness and modesty often puzzle their mothers and battle physicians, us they so often withhold i their confidence from their mothers and conceal the symptoms which ought • to be told to their physician ut this critical period. When a girl's thoughts become sluggish, witli headache, dizziness dr a disposition to sleep, pains in back or loxver limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude; when she is a mystery to herself and friends, her mother should come to her aid. and remember that Lydia E. Pinkhum's Vegetable Compound xvill at this time prepare the system for the coining change, and start this trying period in a young girl's life xvithout pain or irregularities. Hundreds of letters from young girls and from mothers, expressing their gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound lias accomplished for them, have been received by the Lyd a E. Pinkham Medicine Co, at Lynn, Mass. Miss Mills has written the two following letters to Mrs. Pinkham, which will be read xvith interest:

If you knoxv of any young' girl who is siek and needs motherly advice, ask her to address Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and tell her every detail of her symptoms, and to keep nothing back. She xvill receive advice absolutely free, from a source that has no rival in the experienceof woman s ills, and it xvill, if followed, put her on the right road to a strong, healthy and happy womanhood.
