LePage, South Rus- tico, P.E.I., writes:--' My little six- year-old girl had very bad attacks of bronchitis every winter. In the even- ing and during the night, she would have fever and choke up, and had a wheezing in her chest. We tried sev- eral cough medicines, but they never seemed to do her any good. A neigh- bor advised us to try Dr. Wood's Nor- way Pine Syrup, which we did, and after she had taken two bottles she got perfectly well." . Price 36c. and 60c. a bottle; put up only by The T.

"On one occasion," writes Sir Lees Knowles, in 'Fun, Fact, and Ex- tract," "I was traveling from Mao- chester to London in a first-class rail- way carriage, and opposite to me { was, apparently, a Menchester busi- ness man. ' "Neither had said a word to the tance south of Weedon the train pass- | to the Irish express. "I told him the story, and when I 'It would startle you, wouldn't it?' And what was all the conversation during a journey of four hours!" The following account of the story of Balaam and his ass is from the exercise-book of a third- standard boy:-- "It was about an owld gentleman as was a-wallopin' of a donkey, and as the donkey was stupid, he whacked it with a stick. The donkey ran agin a wall and squeezed the gentleman's leg, and he walloped it they and no mistake and serve it right. Then the donkey began to speak and told him he was wicked to serve him in this ere style, and an angel came down and took sides with the donkey and preached a sermint to the owld gen- tleman and they all went away Jolly." There is a story told about a north- ern bishop that, when he was on one occasion about to stay the night at a particular vicarage, the vicar, who was anxious that everything might be in order, called at the palace to inquire what he could do for the comfort of his guest. He met at the palace a young man whom he took to be a private secre- tary, who informed him that the bishop was very particular about what he took to drink, and he sug- gested that the vicar unostentatious- ly might give him a choice. For in- stance, if on the table in his bedroom there were a bottle of brandy, a bot- tle of whisky, a bottle of port, and some soda water, then he.could please himpelf. As matter of fact, the bishop was a teetotaller, and when he was | shown into his bedroom he was hor- | rifled with the innocent display of hospitality, as a joke had been played upon the unsuspecting vicar by the bishop's son. f On one occasion another bishop was visiting one of his clergy whose wife was away from home. As, how- ever, the bishop was staying only one night, the parson thought that it was not necessary to recall his wife.. The bishop came, and the next day, as he was leaving the house, the host sald, "The next time you come, my lord, I hope that you will bring Mrs. (Bishop) with you," when he was shocked to hear the reply, "Can't rough it, can't rough it!" The parson was somewhat upset. On her return his wife inquired about the arrangements, and upon being told in which room the bishop had slept, a brilliant idea occurred to her, and she excitedly asked her husband if he had remembered to take the sil- ver from under the mattress. A young man who was learning to shoot was very keen about it, as he had been presented with a new gun. His father was rather anxious, and in order to induce care he told his son that a gun was a dapgerous wea- pon, and sald that a neighbor, when out shooting, had hit a beater. The boy was greatly interested, and ex- claimed, "Father, which barrel was fer A well-known counsel was noted for his indifferent dressing. A friend persuaded him to go to a firm of cele- brated tailors. The new clothes were sent home, but did not seem to suit him better than those he had been wearing, and the friend who had persuaded him to buy them went to the tailors to poiut this out. To his astonishment, the tailor asked, "How can you expect any of his clothes to fit? When we went to measure him, he sald that he spent most of his life in literary work sit- ting in a chair, and in a chair he in- sisted upon being measured for 'his clothes." Two Sisters of Mercy were once shown in to see a lawyer. They urged their case, and appealed so fer- vently that he felt he must give them something for charity and in order to set rid of them. So to tempt them he said he would give them a sove- reign for a kiss aplece. . The Sisters were greatly startled, and one sald, "What do you think, Mary? Charitable object, don't you know!" And they coyly assented. He gave the sovereign and extracted the penaity. e The next morning a constable ap- peared and sald he had arrested two | other.

I'm quite sure you've studied about her in your school books,' whispered Go- oomeback as the little girl turned the corner and was joined by her brother, * Their little yellow faces brighten- ed as they spiel Gocomeback and Betty, and they came trotting over to shake hands. The little girl wore a tiny cap cov- ered with bright beads, and her long black hair braided in a braid down her back flopped around as she ran. She had on a little pink satin jacket and wide pantalets of dark red. Her ooat fell to her knees, and her pan- talets almost touched her gay color- ed silk stockings. The little brother wore a bright 'blue gown embroidered with flowers. This came to his knees. Down from under it peeked blue silk trousers tied tight around his ankles. Mis stockings were white, and his shoes were black cloth with thick white soles. 'I know," laughed Betty, as Go- comeback introduced them. "You are little Chinese children. I've seen your pictures in my study book." This seemed to please them very much, and they shook hands with Gocome- Not as we shake hands, but by holding their two thumbs together and shaking them up and down.
