THE CURE FOR DOWNHEARTEDNESS God Is Our Sure Defence, Our Refuge and Strength, A Very Present Present Help in Time of Trouble. "Why art thou cast down, 0 my soul ? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God."--Psalm,.xlii., 5. It is a great comfort to us to discover discover that the moral heroes of the past were just such people as we ourselves are. They fell before temptation sometimes, just as we do. They struggled to their feet again and went on just as we have done many a time. They had to wrestle in prayer to get a victory, exactly as we have to. They were heartsick about their failures, as we often are. You are a very strange person if you never are low spirited. We may fairly be suspicious of one who is never disposed to be a bit melancholy. Our aims cannot be very high if we are always able to reach them. We have not undertaken very big enterprises enterprises if we always have been able to carry them out.

' to tell- us that if We give our- bodies a fair chance oqr spirits will revive. But sometimes our gloominess of spirit comes from the failure of our plans for ourselves and others. We aspire to be so much'better than we are, and the more we try the worse we seem to be. Instead of acquiring more graces of character we become daily more conscious of our shortcomings. shortcomings. And when we work for the good of others either there is no response at all to our efforts or there is so little response that we feel like giving up forever. And sometimes, it cannot be denied, trying to be good and to do good becomes monotonous, and we realize realize that there is such a thing as"the spice of wickedness," and so we fall a prey to spiritual weariness.

The discouraged man who wrote our text said, "Hope thou in God." What can'fret us if we know that God stands back of us ? He is able to take care of us'. He is pledged to take care of us.

Whooping cough, while in the main a disease of childhood, is not to be lightly regarded as a simple disease - or as something, to be "had early and gotten over with." i It is a serious disease and very con- ■ tagious, especially among children. In this country, thousands of children die every 'ÿear from whooping cough and , its complications. Adults sometimes I g^t- it, and when they do it is extremé- ly serious. ^ Every motjhèr of young children should be familiar with the symptoms sa that she may not only give prompt attention to the ailing child but also take immediate steps to keep the disease disease from spreading to others. In the beginning of the disease the child shows no signs of an ordinary cold. There is running of the nose, slight fever and a dry cough. The eyes are bloodshot. After a week the cough becomes worse instead of better^ and the coughing fits develop. "The child now coughs many times in succession. It becomes pale, and when it draws in its breath there occurs occurs the sharp,/shi i'll noise that is known as the "whoop." The "Whoop," however t is not always present, but, even in cases where it is not, great cure must be taken of the sick child. In attacks-of the disease that might be classed as iîKld a child will have four or five coughing fits daily^ while in severe cases there will be many more. Carèlessness ; is largely responsible for the great spread^of the disease, and during the wet, cold months of early spring mothers should be on their guard against it. Unless a child sick with whooping cough is isolated the disease will spread like wildfire among its playmates. If your child has the disease you must not allow it to play with other children. Even after the "whoop" has stopped there is danger of spreading the disease to others. If, on the other hand, you hear of some other child in the neighborhood who has the disease, take every precaution precaution to protect your child. All matter that comes from the mouth and nose during the time ' a child is sick should be received in pieces of old linen or rags and burned. Separate cups, glasses, plates and knives, forks and spoons should be kept for the sick child. Fresh air at all times is an important important part of thè treatment and cure of whooping cough. During the day. if the weather is fine, see that the ailing ailing child plays in the open air, but alone, of course. Night and day keep its bedroom well aired. The feeding of a child suffering from whooping cough is important and is best carried out under the supervision supervision of a physician. There, is frequently- frequently- vomiting during the disease, with the result that many children rapidly lose weight and strength. This leaves the child in a condition where it is apt to contract tuberculosis or pneumonia--diseases that frequently threaten in the wake of whooping cough. o--:-- AGED OFFICE BOYS mÜ$8 WÈÈ f M 3 A BRANTFORD SLATÈ. 1 .-Fibre Base.

Yesterday and To-day Wooden shingles of twenty or thirty years ago were of splendid quality, and answered the purpose very well. There was nothing better at that time. In fact n6 other roofing material was on the market. Yet who would think of putting on shingles to-day ? When the deterioration of wooden shingles became noticeable, efforts were made to. invent a roofing that would riot only be an economical and permanent substitute for wooden shingles, but one'that would outlast them in service. ' Brantford Roofing was the result. It has "made good." The secret of its success is this: First, the base is of pure, long-fibred felt which is thoroughly satùrated with asphalt or mineral pitch. The asphalt and crystal roll roofings are then thickly coated with crushed rock particles, which adhere tightly to that base, and the whole forms a permanent fireproof, wàter-tight roof. Brantford .Asphalt and Rubber Roofing are made in three different weights. Crystal is made in heavy weight onb\ and in red or green natural colors, x All three grades are pliable and well suited to either flat or steep roofs. & i'ïi. • V - ' -*• comes in rolls with protected ends.
