The Best Remedy for Croup.
(From the Atchison, Kan., Daily Globe. t
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for croup
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by a whoop from one of the
children. The croup remedies are al-
most as sure to be lost, in case of croup,
as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of
burglars. There used to be an oldfash-
ioned remedy for croup, known as hive
syrup, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
better, and does not cost so much. It
causes the patient to "throw up the
phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears and it will
prevent the attack. It never fella and is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by'

AFRAID OF BIG CITIES ,
ENGLAND LONG TRIED TO KEEP DOWN
LONDON'S POPULATION
Laws fagged That Made xt an Offense
to Live In the Metropolis and 1'roe,
haniutio»s Issued to Hestrlet the
Sire and Number of Iiulidings,
From the days of Elizabeth to those
of (.'lutrles II, the various English gov-
ernnwnts tried by every means within
their power to preserve the kingdom
from tile "evils" attendant upon a
huge metropolis, The frequent out-
brealcings of the plague --afterward
culminating in the terrible visitation
which carried oil over 30,000 persons—
.
the fear that with #lie deluge of build-
ing the population would be "poisoned
by breathing in one another's fasces,"
the incapacity of the police of the tune
to preserve order and their utter help-
lessness in the face of mob low—these
were among the contributory causes
which brought about a long series of
vexatious and annoying prohibitions.
In 1580 a proclamation was issued
prohibiting the erection within three
miles of the city gates of any new
houses or tenements upon sites where
no former house had been known to
have been erected. Later came another
proclamation, by which It was ordered
that only one family should live in
each house, that houses erected within
the past seven years and still unlet
should remain empty, and that all un-
finished buildings on new foundations
should be pulled down.
There would appear to have been
neither order nor system in these vary-
ing proclamations, which were issued
every six or seven years. Thus at one
time buildings were prohibited within
ten miles of London, at another (as
quoted above) within three miles, and,
while under Elizabeth unfinished
houses only were required to be pulled
down, orders were issued later under
which houses which had been erected
several years were ruthlessly demol-
ished.
Further proclamations of the same
period commanded that "persons of
livelihood and means should reside in
their counties and not abide or sojourn
in the city of London, so that counties
remained unserved," but these seem to
have been of no effect until the reign
of Charles I., when they were renewed
and definite steps taken to enforce
obedience. All persous of livelihood
and means unconnected with public
offices were ordered within forty days
from the date of the notice to resort to
their several counties and with their
families continue their residence there,
and they were further warned "not to
put themselves to unnecessary charge
in providing themselves to return in
winter to the said cities"—i. e., London
and Westminster—"as it was the king's
firm resolution to withstand such great
and growing evil."
Even this had little effect upon the
public in its first issue, and a copious
list was prepared of offenders, includ-
ing a great number of the nobility and
ladies and gentlemen, who were accus-
ed of living in London for several
mouths after the given warning. Most
of these had made a preteuso of quit-
ting the city, to return again after a
brief absence, hoping thus to escape
the penalty of their disobedieuce.
It came as a bolt from the blue in
1635 when Mr. Palmer, a large land-
holder in Sussex, was brought into the
star chamber and fined £1,000 for dis-
obeying the proclamation as to living
in the country and remaining in Lon-
don after the prescribed period. Ile
was a bachelor, and he urged in his de-
fense that he had never been married,
had never been a "housekeeper" and
had no house fitting for a man of his
birth to reside in, his own mansion in
the country having been burned down,
but his judges were inexorable, and
the fine was accompanied by a severe
reprimand for having deserted his ten-
ants and neighbors.
In the same year information was
filed against Sir John Suckling, the
poet, and many others for the same of-
fense, and such was the terror caused
by these prosecutions that on all sides
folk of condition and quality were to
be seen preparing for flight into the
country, cursing the hardship of being
confined to their country houses and
leaving town and its pleasures behind.
To encourage gentlemen to live more
willingly in the country, says a writer
of the times, all game fowl, such as
pheasants, partridges, ducks and hares,
were at certain times forbidden to be
dressed or eaten in any inn.
In a proclamation is4ued by Charles
II, in 1061—one of the last in this di-
rection --among the Inconveniences set
forth as daily growing by the spread
of new buildings were: The increase
of the people in such great numbers
as to prohibit their proper government
by the wonted officers, the enhance-
ment of the price of vituals, the en-
dangering of the health of the city in-
habitants and the damage done to
the tradespeople in the boroughs by
the migration townward of the impute -
tion.
But it was all of no avail. Nothing
could stop the increase of "upstart
London," as it `vas termed by some of
the old writers, and the prediction of
James L that "England will itself be
London, and London England," is fast
approaching verification. What 'would
his late majesty say now to "those
swarms of gentry who, through the
instigation of their wives or to new
model and fashion their daughters,
neglect their country hospitality and
cumber the city, a general nuisance to
the kingdom`["
Somewhat over a century later, ,in
1.773, a bill was brought before parlia-
ment in which it rias proposed to put
wt tax of 't shillings in the pound (on
net rents and annual profits) on ab-
sentee Walt landlords, and this World
appear to be the only reeorded at-

The Gregg system is both easy to write and transcribe
because there is no shading, no arbitrary positions and no
use of vowels—no other systems have these important
features.
Over 400 leading schools, including the Forest City
