‘‘Such cases are frequent,” replied the
doctor in answer to a question. ‘‘The
warm days and damp, chilly nights are
certain malaria breeders and are most
serious in those who have neglected to
keep their stomach, liver and bowels in,
good condition. Such persons are full
of the impurities on which the malarial
germ thrives, and it is from this clas9
that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright’s
Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim
most of their victims whenever these dis
eases are prevalent.
The proper way to guard against the
malarial germ and the serious diseases
which follow it is to get into good condi^
tiop by taking a reliable remedy that'
will keep ihe bowels clear and the livei
healthy, and to continue with it at fre
juent intt rvals during tte sickly season

FREE REMEDY HELPS CHILDREN
Many a mother has learned of a
way of avoiding sickness in her fam
; ily, especially among the children, by
the use of a free sample bottle of the
' famous laxative, Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin. This offer of the doctor’s to
send a free sample bottle has been re
sponded to by thousands of women
r in all parts of America.
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a
truly wonderful laxative and espe
cially adapted to the needs of babies
and children because it is pleasant to
taste and no child will refuse it. Then,
it is mild and never gripes. It is all
) that a child’s remedy should be,
. though it is a good laxative for the
whole family because it is effective
| at ail ages. It is not dynamic like
salts, pills and powerful cathartics,
which should not be given to chil
; dren tinder any circumstances.
'
Nine times out of ten when a child
complains and you don’t know ex
actly what is the matter with it, it
needs a laxative—its bowels are con
stipated. Syrup Pepsin will correct
the trouble, tone up the child and
soon it will be well again—wonder
ful results have been secured with
Syrup Pepsin over night.
You can buy it of any druggist at
fifty cents or a dollar a bottle, the
latter being the family size, but you
are invited to make a test of it first
at the doctor’s expense. Send him
your address today and he will send
you a free sample bottle direct to
your home. Then when satisfied buy
it of your favorite druggist.
For the free sample address him.

DEAD MAN SANG AT FUNERAL
Pietro Flcco, Amateur Musician, Left
Phonograph Records to Be Used
at His Obsequies.
We hear now and then of a man
reading his own obituary in the pa
pers, but it is a rare things for a
dead man to sing at his own funeral.
Pietro Ficco, a shoemaker and ama
teur musician, had a very great fond
ness for the phonograph. He pur
chased a good many records and occa
sionally sang Into his own 'phono
graph and kept records of the songs.
He was taken seriously ill. He real
ized that he could not recover, and
being a poor man and unable to get
up much of a funeral he requested
that they use his phonograph to fur
nish the music for the funeral serv
ices. He picked out the "Angel's
Serenade," and Gounod's “Ave Marla,**
sung by himself, and these were used
and thus the dead man took an Im
portant part at his own funeral serv
ice. He instructed that his phono
graph and 72 records, a number of
them his own, should be sent to his
mother in Italy.—The Christian Her
ald.
Dogs in Ecclesiastical Decorations.
The stained glasB representation of
the “Pedler and His Dog," to which
attention has been directed by the dis
covery of a boundary stone of "Ped
Ier’s Acre," on the site of the new
county hall, waB removed from Lam
beth church a quarter of a century
ago owing to the alleged incongruity
of introducing the figure of a dog in a
church window. Quite recently Chan,
cellor Prescott of Carlisle refused a
faculty for a stained glass window in
a Westmoreland church because th«
design included a dog; and perhaps
the only existing examples of dogs
used for ecclesiastical decorations are
to be found in Lord Brownlow’s pri
vate chapel at Ashbrldge. In this
church one stained glass window de
picts Tobias and Sara in bed and a
dog sleeping on the quilt, while in an
other window Job is shown being
mocked by three men, one of whom la
holding a dog by a chain.—Westmin
ster Gazette.
Facing Death.
Why should we consent even to the
semblance of lack of courage in our
pagan trappings of woe at every
death? We may grieve that we are
left behind; that a comrade whose
face and voice and Interpretation of
life make half our Joy should pass
beyond our grasp. But If we believe
that death Is going to Justify Itself
as life has Justified Itself, there la
no right or reason In emphasising
grief. We were made to go onward.
There 1b no permanent stoppage In the
great processional pageant passing
from one eternity on to another. And
when we are forced to wave "farewell’*
to one who goes beyond our sight, let
It be courageously and with a solemn
gladness. “There Is nothing to be com
miserated,” writes the good, gray poet
to one about to die. “I do not com
miserate—I congratulate you."—Lou
ise Collier Wlllcox, in Harper’s Bazar.
Fer a Sick Little Girl.
Give an Invalid child a set of doll
dishes for her own tray. As there are
plenty of these sufficiently large to
hold all that the patient Is allowed to
eat the "cuteness” and novelty of

eat the food that would otherwise re

Two pieces of ancient tapestry which
were recently discovered at Langford
Hill, a Jacobean house near Bude,
Cornwall, have been sold for 083,000
at Messrs. Puttlck and Simpson’s
rooms. The purchaser was Oapt. H.
Lindsay.
The principal piece, measuring It
feet 4 Inches by 13 feet 0 Inches, was
one of a set of panelB of fifteenth cev*
tury arras tapestry, originally belong
Ing to Cardinal Wolsoy and represent
lng the seven deadly sins. Three ol
the panels are now hanging at Hamp
ton court palace. The second pleco
of tapestry was part of a frieze, 14 feet
by 2 feet 4 inches, originally made for
Hampton. court palace. Small pieces A

OXFORD STICKS TO GREEK

Humanity is not dead after all. Ox

gregation and not convocation which
declined to make Greek optional for
all. No one can . say that the country . .
parsons did It, or that expert opinion,
all those who are actively concerned
In running the university, were in fa- %
vor of the change and overborne by
outside reaction brought up for the

rights with Latin. The ordinary un*
dergraduate should be made to know
something of both and If he is to be
allowed to do with only one, Greek
must have as good a chance of being
taken as Latin. This, as Prof. Gilbert
Murray says, will save Greek at the
public schools. For the specialist, the
mathematical or solence man, we have
always been willing to let him oft

generally be better for him If he le
