house. It seems that young Dean,
since his attempt to take his own life,
caught hold of the two -months -old
baby aucl wanted to kill it. The poor
boy is evidently out Os his mind, and
will likely be sent to a suitable place of
incarceration, where lie will no longer
be a menace, to himself and his family.

NERVOUSNESS AND NERVE.
The more nervous a man is, the less
nerve he has. That sounds paracloxial
—hut it isnt; for nerve is stamina.
Hood's Sarsaparilla gives nerve. It
tones the whole system, perfects di-
gestion a,nd assimilation, and is there-
fore the bestmedicine a nervous per-
son can take.
If you get tired easily, mentally or
physically, take it—it will do you
good.
That
Whoop!
Have you had it in your
house? It's cough and
cough and cough, and then
that terrible whoop! Don't
upset the stoma.ch more by
giving nauseous medicine.
Just let the child breathe in the
soothing vapor of Vapo-Cresolene.
It goes right to the spot that's dis-
eased. Relief is immediate, and in
a very few days the cure is complete.
You can't say the same of any other
itreatment. For asthma'catarrh,
and colds it's equally good.
Vapo-Cresolene is sold by druggists everywhere,
The Vaporizer and Lamp, which should last a life.
