This preparation is intended es- pecrally for coughs, colds, croup, whooning cough and influenza. It has become famous for its cures of these diseases over a large part of the civilized world, The most flatt- ering testimonials haye been receiv- ed, giving accounts of its good works; of the aggravating and presistent coughs it has cured; of severe colds that have yielded promptly to its soothing effects. and of the dangerous at tacks of croup it has cured. often saving the life of the child. The ex~ tensive use of it for whOOping cough has shown that it robs that disease of all dangerous results. It is es- pecially prized by mothers because it contains nothing enjurious and there is not the least danger in giving it even to babies. It always cures and cures quickly. Sold by H.

The game begins by each choosing the kind of turtle he intends to be. One perhaps is a land tortoise, another a snapper, another a mud turtle and so on. Then they all sit in a row, resting their chins on their knees, and each holding his left ankle with his right hand and his right ankle with his left hand. This is a very difficult position to keep. At a given signal the turtles start for a goal a short distance away. It is the object of the game for the turtles to waddle to the goal and back to the starting point without removing their hands from their feet. Many let go before the proper moment; the oth- ers shout “dead turtle” and keep on, leaving their unfortunate companion in the background. The rules of the game demand that he wait there until the first successful racer reaches him on his way back and touches him with his elbow, by which he is supposed to instill new life into the poor dead turtle. The latter immediately starts out again and finishes in the best style he can. As there are always several dead turtles, he is never lonely in his effort to succeed. The winner is. of course, the one who returns to the starting place first. A curious tradition exists about a strange insect which is found only in Himejl, a pretty little town near the center of Japan. It seems there once lived a rich noble in a castle on the outskirts of the town who was famous for the magnificence of his dishes, among which were ten bowls of solid gold. In his employ was a maidserv- ant, O-Kiku, to whom was intrusted the care of the plate. One day a gold dish was missing. She searched dili- gently, but in vain, and in despair drowned herself in a well. Her ghost returned each night to the spot and could be heard counting the dishes slowly with sobs, “Ichi-mai, ni-mai. san-mai, yo-mai, goâ€"mai, roku-mai, chi- chi-mat, hachi-mai, ku-mai,” to nine, when there would follow a loud, wail- ing cry, andthe uncanny count would begin over again. At last the uneasy spirit passed into the body of an insect whose head somewhat resembled a ghost with long. tousled hair, and in that part of Japan it is considered un- lucky to cultivate the Chrysanthemum, as the girl’s name O-Kiku, means chrysanthemum. The Little Green Man. A pretty trick may be shown by fashioning a little man or a pillar out of clayey mud mixed with sand. While the figure is still soft press into it Seed of water cress which has been soaked for some hours in soft lukewarm water. When the figure is well covered with seed set it into a plate which is filled with soft lukewarm water mixed with a bit of unslaked lime. Before long the figure will be covered with a beau- tiful velvety green cloak. Conundnmu. What request does a cripple make of a dealer in artificial limbs? Re-mem- her me. Double Up.
