Would Not Suffer So Av«io for Fifty Times Its Price. I awoke last night with severe pain in my stomach. I never felt so badly in all tn.v life. When I came doftn to work this morning I felt so weak I could hard­ ly work". I went to Miller & McCurdy's drug store and they recommended Cham­ berlain's Colic Cholera and diarrhoea Remedy. It worked like magic and one dose fixed me all right. It certainly is the finest thing I evar used for stomach trouble. I shall not be without it in my home hereafter, for I should not care to endure the sufferings of last night again for fifty times it 4 price.--G H, WIL»ON, Liveryman, Burgettstown, Washington Co..

Farmers in the latter country have been harvesting grain for the last two weeks, while in this state the farmers are s ill planting corn.

YOUTHFUL DEPRAVITY. Boys In tlie Argentine Republic Poee as Men at 14. We hear a good deal said of Young America and his impudence, writes Frank G. Carpenter. The boys of the Argontiive are even more precocious than those of the United States. An Argentine father seldom whips his son, aiul children have much more liberty south of the equator than nortit of it. The Sunday school is almost uuknowu, and idea?> of morality are >?o loose that children are brought up in a most per­ nicious way. As to lying, this is com­ mon among men, women and children. The poiile lie is hut with everj where, aiul a father will sometimes say jvbout his little girl or boy in admiring tones: "Why* hear that child lie," or "IIow well it does lie;" "Why, I could not lie better than that myself." They do not think it disgraceful to lie, and have the Spanish idea of honor. You might, for instance, call an Argentine a liar, and he would think nothing of it. He might think it a compliment more than anything else. But if you should call him a coward he could not consistently rest until he had knocked you down or stabbed you in the back. The young Argentine learns wicked­ ness at a much earlier age than do our boys. Many of them have repraved minds at 14, and already pose as men. Hoys liegin to talk politics before they are out of knee pants. Nearly every college has its political factions. The boys organize revolutions against the professors, thus training themselves to get up revolutions against the govern­ ment when they grow older. The well- to ilo young Argentine is not brought up to any business. He has a preju­ dice against trade and work, though he will study for a profession. It is the fashionable thing to study law, and thus get the title of doctor to the name, though the young man may never ex­ pect to practice. The children, as a rule, learn the lan­ guages easily, and many young men speak English and French. Girls are also good linguists, but outside of the languages they know but little. YOB cam Dodge Them Did you ever try to dodge the rain-drops ? Did not succeed very well, did you? It's just as useless to try to escape from the germs of consumption. You can't do it. They are about us on every hand and we are con* ztzr.tty taking them into em lungs. Then why don't we all have this disease? Simply because these germs cannot gain a foot­ hold in a strong thr A and lungs. It's when these are weak that the germs master. The body must be well supplied with fat. The danger comes when the blood is poor and the body is thin. If your cough does not yield, and your throat and lungs feel raw and sore, you should not delay another day.
